Stanthorpe Golf Report Saturday 10th August 2024.
Harry Houdini. The Stanthorpe Golf Club are honoured to announce that Harry ‘Houdini’ Day has come to town. Harry joined the club only a week ago and, in the Saturday, competition pulled off some ‘great escapes’ to the amazement of the hapless onlookers. Harry is a BIG driver of the ball. Most drives were good, but some not so good and then the Houdini in Harry came to the surface and performed a ‘great escape’ against impossible odds.
Harry Houdini claimed the honours of the day with a very tight win over Brendon Barker on a count back. But the hot competition didn’t end there, third and fourth places also came down to the wire on a count back with Keith Barnett getting the edged on a very personable and keen competitor, Ron Batterham. The days golf was sponsored by the Brass-Monkey Brewery. The club is very grateful to the Brass-Monkey Brewery for the generous vouchers given for the winner and runner up. All readers of this article and golfers are encouraged to visit the Brass-Monkey Brewery. The Writer of this article can vouch for the pure nectar of the Brewery and in particular the ‘Quart Pot Old.’
Pin Shots went to Keith Barnett, Scott Constable, Brendan Barker, Harry Houdini Day and Barry Jones.
Congratulations to the Ladies, the winners for the day were Lynette Ludlow with Helen Jones runner up. And thanks again to the Brass-Monkey Brewery and I’m sure their ‘better halves’ will be making a ‘B (beer) line’ to the brewery sometime soon. Nikki Waterworth, our ‘sharpshooter’ from last week, proved the point and cleaned up on the Pin Shots this week.
Finally, a big thank you to the staff and volunteers of the club. The club works so well because of the many cheerful contributors. Next Saturday the 17th will be sponsored by Marie Cook and the local concrete pumping enterprise, GLT Concreting (Nathan Stibbard) and we can look forward to another happy day's play. Be sure to book in early on the Club web page.
