Mildura Results

The 2014 Mildura Long weekend drew 14 starters, comprising the cream of the EET.   Many thanks to Bronte et al for arranging the accommodation (Coomealla), courses and Saturday night BBQ.

Friday 31/10/14:  Coomealla.
A tough course off the blue tees in the very warm conditions (about 35C), and the scores reflected the degree of difficulty (after a 5 hour drive).

Well done to:
Bronte M and   Peter P  (31 pts)
George C                        (30)

Long Drive:  Stephen G

Birdies:   Bronte M on par 4 fifteenth; David O  on par 4 sixth; Greg W on the par 3 eighteenth

Saturday 01/11/14:   Riverside
A slightly easier rated course, but a two club breeze increased the difficulty (plus a light sprinkle of rain on the first hole).  Turned into a very nice, but breezy morning.
