Eric

up to claim the multiple format pairs event at the Collie Golf Club last
Saturday. Annandale & Banks finished with a combined total of 82
hits, after six holes each of Ambrose, Canadian and Stroke. Once
calculations were completed this amounted to a staggering 61¾ nett
score, setting up an easy win. Denis Cocker & Wayne Waywood, joining
forces at the last minute, combined well to take second place with 65¼
net. Clive
Pullan & Ian Stewart were next on 67, followed by Dave Brunswick
& Tony Barker-May and Ron Crabbe & Alf Sanford. Both pairings
returned 68¼. Ken Woods & Mat Harker, Ken Smallwood & Ian Milne,
Des Hebb & Joe Italiano, along with John Wray & Ken Tate, all
recorded 70 nett or better to receive a mention.

Bruce
Miller proved he had the game to cope with the horrendous wintry
conditions to record a narrow victory in the Solstice Group event at the
Collie Golf Club last Saturday. Miller scored a creditable 38 points in
the sloppy conditions, to be the only competitor above the CCR of 73 in
the field of 57 men and five ladies brave enough to play. Miller
described the conditions on the course as ‘better than a day at
work!’ Greg Bell took out gross honours and Bill Hunter gained
the best visitor position with 34 points. Phil Warburton (NAGA) and
Darren ‘Wild Thing’ Morfitt (Jacket) gained rewards for their
efforts, even though the President thought one must have pulled out of
the event, going on the score returned. Kaye Farquhar picked up
the Ladies trophy after recording 30 points to finish ahead of Bev
Moyses on 28 points.

About
Collie
Golf Club Collie
Golf Club is located in the lovely town of Collie,
nestled in the picturesque Collie River Valley, 200km south of Perth, Western Australia. 
The
clubhouse from the 10th fairway. Since this photograph was taken a big
all weather deck has been built outside the bar, with outstanding views
of the course.
The
6,004m, 18 hole, par 72 layout on the banks of the meandering
Collie
River features one of Australia's top 100 golf holes. Collie
Golf Club offers a first class, enjoyable and affordable golf
experience to members and visitors alike - an exhilarating challenge characterised by tree lined doglegs, punishing rough, and fast, true grass greens.

golfers would also know that part of the pleasure of the great game is
the flora and fauna on many courses, and Collie is no exception. Ducks
and kangaroos abound, with members deriving great pleasure from watching
ducklings and joeys growing up through spring. The duckling season
generally starts in July with clutches ranging from a handful to a huge
15 ducklings in one family in 2005. On the kangaroo front the joeys poke
their heads out in September or so, and they become reasonably
proficient and increasingly confident hoppers by early in the new year. The course is
particularly colourful towards the end of winter and early spring, when
Western Australia's famous wildflower season is in full bloom. Collie
Golf Club is a friendly and active club which welcomes new
members and visitors, and which epitomises the very best
of country golf in Western Australia. Our fully reticulated
course provides year round golf to the highest standard,
hosting major regional events such as the
Summer Open
and
Riverside Open.
And
our clubhouse, bar,
and regular nine hole and 18 hole competitions provide a great social and sporting
focus for residents of our wonderful town and for the beautiful Shire of
Collie. Come
and take a look some day! |
