Hello golfers

Best nett 1st: Sarah Harvey on 39, 2nd Alison Russell on 41, 3rd Lizzy Thomson on 41. Stableford 1st: Sarah Harvey, 2nd Janet Chilton, 3rd Jo Guscott, all on 15. Closest to the pin was Sarah (talk about a sweep!!!).

18 holes – Results from last week. The ladies asked me not to publish the scores as it was a tough day at the office. 1st: Jenny Wilkie, 2nd Alison Tipler, 3rd Karen Delehanty. Nearest the Pin #10 Jenny Wilkie and on # 16 no-one. Sadly there were no Twos.

Part 6 of 6. Golf Etiquette. Care of the course –

Bunkers: Before leaving a bunker, players should carefully fill up and smooth over all holes and footprints made by them and any nearby footprints made by others. If a rake is within reasonable proximity of the bunker, the rake should be used for this purpose.

Repair of divots, ball-marks and damage by shoes: Players should carefully repair any divot holes made by them and any damage to the putting green made by the impact of a ball (whether or not made by the player himself). On completion of the hole by all players in the group, damage to the putting green caused by golf shoes should be repaired.

Preventing unnecessary damage: Players should avoid causing damage to the course by removing divots when taking practice swings or by hitting the head of a club into the ground, whether in anger or for any other reason. Players should ensure that no damage is done to the putting green when putting down bags or the flagstick. In order to avoid damaging the hole, players and caddies should not stand too close to the hole and should take care during the handling of the flagstick and the removal of a ball from the hole. The head of a club should not be used to remove a ball from the hole. Players should not lean on their clubs when on the putting green, particularly when removing the ball from the hole. The flagstick should be properly replaced in the hole before the players leave the putting green. Local notices regulating the movement of golf carts should be strictly observed.

Part 5 of 6. Golf Etiquette. Priority on the course – Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, priority on the course is determined by a group’s pace of play. Any group playing a whole round is entitled to pass a group playing a shorter round. The term “group” includes a single player.

An extra today since the section on Priority on the course is short. 

Dress to Impress (or at Least to Show Respect): A reasonable standard of dress applies both on the course and in the clubhouse. Singlets, jandals, and bare feet? Not today, thanks! 

Hats: Always remove your cap or visor the moment you step indoors. 

Respect the Course: Help keep the course in great condition by replacing divots, raking bunkers after use, and repairing ball marks on the greens. Leave the course better than you found it. 

Mind Your Language: Please keep language respectful. Offensive or coarse language is not acceptable on the course or in the clubhouse. 

Bin It, Don’t Drop It: Please use the bins provided for all rubbish and bottles. Together, we can keep our course looking its best.

Hello golfers

We are deeply saddened to learn that Whitney Griffiths passed away yesterday morning in England. Our heartfelt thoughts and sincere condolences are with his family, friends, and the many members of the golfing community who knew and respected him. He will be greatly missed.

Grumpies – PAR 30 Jun – 1st: Sandy Bidwill & Chris Ranish -1, 2nd: Jason Shaw -2, 3rd: Ro Griffiths -3. One Two for Sandy Bidwill on #8.

Ladies – 

9 holes – Once the fog lifted a group of 12 enjoyed their 3rd golf lesson with Brad. Those not having a lesson played a Stableford competition, and we all commented on the winter golf conditions as our balls plopped instead of running. Lots of excuses but also lots of fun. Jenny Joblin took the Stablefords win with 13. Janet Chilton was closest to the pin on #8.

18 holes – Congratulations to the Ladies that played the Riverside Cup on Friday. They won their match 5 to 1 against Riversdale and doing this they brought the points up to level with Eketahuna. Therefore we finished 1st equal sharing the cup with them. Well done to all who played in the Riverside Cup Teams over this season.

Results from Wednesday playing a Stableford round. 1st Kelly Taylor 37 points, 2nd: Karen Delehanty 32 points, 3rd Jo Loe 30 points, 4th: Carol Parkinson 29 points, 5th Alison Tipler 29 points. NTP #10 Bindy McLeod and #16 Karen Shaw. Sadly no Twos.

Thursday Club – Stableford 2 Jul – 1st: Chris Ranish 37 points, 2nd: Matt Thomas, Brian Russo, Seamus O’Sullivan 35 points, 3rd: Julia Deeley 34 points. Twos for Seamus O’Sullivan on #8, Doug Clark, Jason Shaw, Mark Gray on #10, Chris Ranish, Johnny Gray on #16. Nearest the Pin on #10 was Doug Clark.

Weekend Comps – 

Medal/Putting 4 Jul – 1st: Jason Shaw on countback from Chris Ranish 73 nett, 3rd: Seanoa Isaac 75 points. Seanoa also won the Putting with 25 putts. There were no Twos.

Medal/Putting 5 Jul – 1st: Bevan Sweeney 71 points, 2nd: Brian Russo 73 points, 3rd: Shane Hislop 74 points, 4th: Derek Stephens 76 points. A Two for Doug Clark on #4, and Bevan Sweeney & Brian Russo on #10. The Putting winner was Steve Croft with 27 putts.

Part 4 of 6. Golf Etiquette. Pace of Play – Play at good pace and keep up: Players should play at a good pace. The Committee may establish pace of play guidelines that all players should follow. It is a group’s responsibility to keep up with the group in front. If it loses a clear hole and it is delaying the group behind, it should invite the group behind to play through, irrespective of the number of players in that group. Where a group has not lost a clear hole, but it is apparent that the group behind can play faster, it should invite the faster moving group to play through.

Be ready to play: Players should be ready to play as soon as it is their turn to play. When playing on or near the putting green, players should leave their bags or carts in such a position as will enable quick movement off the green and towards the next tee. When the play of a hole has been completed, players should immediately leave the putting green. 

Lost ball: If a player believes their ball may be lost outside a water hazard or is out of bounds, they should play a provisional ball to save time. Players searching for a ball should signal the players in the group behind them to play through as soon as it becomes apparent that the ball will not easily be found. They should not search for five minutes before doing so. Having allowed the group behind to play through, they should not continue play until that group has passed and is out of range.

Part 3 of 6. Golf Etiquette. Consideration for others – 

Disturbance or distraction: Players should always show consideration for other players on the course and should not disturb their play by moving, talking or making unnecessary noise. Players should ensure that any electronic device taken onto the course does not distract other players. On the teeing ground: A player should not tee the ball until it is their turn to play. Players should not stand close to or directly behind the ball, or directly behind the hole, when a player is about to play. On the putting green: Players should not stand on another player’s line of putt or cast a shadow over their line of putt when they are making a stroke. Players should remain on or close to the putting green until all other players in the group have holed out. Scoring: In stroke play, a player acting as a marker should, if necessary, check the score with the player concerned and record it on the way to the next tee.

Players should not play until the players in front are out of range. Players should always alert green staff nearby or ahead when they are about to make a stroke that might endanger them. If a player plays a ball in a direction where there is a danger of hitting someone, they should immediately shout a warning. The traditional word of warning in such situations is “fore”.
