Mr vic champ to you sir

[Squidboy]

All good. No expectations. Never played the course before. Will be a fun day and great to meet a few of the people on here.

[peter_rs]

Can you work a draw a lot of side hill shots

[Squidboy]

Natural shot is right to left. Just looked at the pictures of the course on the Internet. Looks very tight.

[AndyP]

Peter will get you a long way down. It might not be the same fairway though.

The greens are completely different to Brisbane too.

[Squidboy]

Cool. I can bang it a fair way.
