Victor Ambrose and Wednesday Competition

05/02/17:   Victor Harbor, Ambrose Competition

EET had two groups in the annual Ambrose Comp at Victor Harbor for Group 4 clubs - Tatts' team (with Don Wulff) and The Ferals.  

The Ferals, dogged by their usual bad luck, finished 2nd in the Nett competition on 55.125, narrowly behind a West Lakes team.    The Ferals birdied their first six holes (1-6) plus the 18th, for seven under.   Pring's freak putting and Oreo's majestic approach shots meant that the boys were a bit excited on the seventh tee.  The magic soon disappeared.  Wellman was very consistent throughout !!

08/02/17:   North Adelaide

Five starters on a sunny day which was almost too hot to enjoy (34C), with just a faint breeze at times.

Front nine:   Methofer & Whicker (17)
Back nine:    Whicker (17) from Methofer (16)
Overall:         Whicker (34) from Methofer (33)

No birdies or four point holes

Boyle:          4 on ninth
