The Inawg…inorg…the first ever L4G NSW OOM has been run and won, and a more fitting winner you couldn’t find!.

A glorious day greeted the players at Wollongong Golf Club, home of pyl…though looking at his score, you could be forgiven if you thought he’d never seen the joint.

With Jiminy’s unfortunate demise due to coming down with Coronavirus, we welcomed new member Johnno to the group and we saw the return of “The Beard”, 2Putts as well as JayB after a few years lay off. Hopefully they all will join us for more games and become a staple of L4G NSW.

I had the honour of firing the first shot and and it was a sight to behold, traveling barely 1 meter beyond the red tees! Thankfully the rest of the round wasn’t quite that bad. In a day of firsts I also managed to snag the first Eagle in an L4G NSW golf day…maybe the first across the board? A magnificent 2 on the par 4 4th hole. 22 points on the front 9, with the anchor thrown out…I mean wheels falling off…on the back 9 with 15pts. Commish was on fire…sort of…taking 2 of the 6 NTP’s on offer…the rest of his game must have been absolute shite!

Many thanks to all that ventured to the Gong to play today, special thanks to Zookeeper and JayB for the company around the course, very enjoyable, especially Zookeepers tee shot on the 7th, which sliced out of bounds into the Wollongong Geriatric Village, lodging perfectly, we think, into old man Simpsons Zimmer Frame.

15 😲 Your GA?
Mine is 15.7 which means I could be off 19 depending on tees we are playing 😂

Fark… yellow tees has a slope of 122 so I’m off 14. As it has a scratch rating of 69 vers Par of 70, you will be off 15 or 16 at a pinch.

Ooops…under the new system I went from 15.4 – 16.7!!

Just did the calculations..16 for me off the Yellow tees…party on!

Fuck me….that’s “Outrageous”!!!!!!

I agree. Gets to “test” on one of the best courses in Sydney each week, doesn’t play in any comps and then goes to a sprayers paradise like Wollongong, a bit of water, no rough, can be 2 fairways away and still hit the green, beach only comes into play if you have a bad slice or rope hook on a couple of holes (neither are in his game) and gets to play off 16… Pfffft, should be off 12.

Boo hoo…I don’t run the handicap system 😂

6 Par 3’s so bring $12 in coinage if you are in for NTP’s
