Sunday Golf
A large group came out to enjoy the Guy Warskitt Memorial day. With beautiful weather and a course presented in immaculate condition scores were all going to be competitive and this proved to be the case.
Winners for the day with a brilliant score of 48 points were Harry Purvis and Bailey Wilson closely followed on 47 points by Tyson Burey and Taylor Brennan.
The Ladies winners for the day were Sheree Clark and Jodie Stewart with 41 points.
Nearest the pins were 7th- Ian Taylor, 10th- Harry Purvis and 18th- John Prisk
Just a reminder to all that Sunday Golf is not Men’s Golf it is open to Juniors and Ladies as well.

Vets golf
A great day on Tuesday the 11th seen a big field with 18 players enjoying our beautiful golf course. Conditions are great at the moment thanks to our greenkeeper who is doing a brilliant job.
There were some fabulous scores recorded but none better than Robert Moore’s 39 points. Robert played a great second shot on the 17th despite having a large brown snake looking on.
On 38 points, and good enough to win most days, was Ray Sweeney who came in runner up.
Robert was also the best putter with 25 and Ray got one NTP, while Neil Paine got the other two.
Next Tuesday is our 4BBB and then on the 3rd and 4th of March is our two day open event. The 4BBB on Monday and the Guyra open on the Tuesday. This is open to all vets, men, and ladies.
Please support Guyra golf and help us maintain our beautiful golf course.

Good luck all!
