01/03/15  Victor Harbor:   Group 4 Ambrose Competition

A cool, overcast day at Victor, with a moderate breeze most of the day.

Four teams represented the EET with solid results generally around, or just under par.

As expected, team Ferals starred with 6 under par (one short of the nett winner) despite being dogged by bad luck throughout.    Contact Noel for a detailed discussion of our misfortunes.

Ross temporarily held a NTP and Long Drive, but was dudded by lucky shots from others.
