Played it twice in my first OZgolf Champs, but the recollection is hazy. I’ll just aim at the green stuff & hope for the best!

DIBS Bushy!!! I can bring any game down!!!!

[PeteyD]

Yea the copperhead challenge is stroke. Don't worry the course is a doddle which is why they used to have the international golf school there....

[PeteyD]

Here is a review type thread I did of Kooralbyn Valley many moons ago in the middle of the drought, before the place went into Hiatus. The layout is still the same EXCEPT for 1 and 18, which have been returned to their correct routing (1 is a par 4 along the lake to the same green, and 18 is a par 5 around the lakes to the original green near the 1st tee (Original course design has these as 15 and 16, with the 15th being 18 and the 16th being 1, and a big clubhouse overlooking the 18th and 9th greens, sadly no clubhouse was built).

Just reading about the shit they had all over the greens. We all got a free round thanks to AP whining.

[PeteyD]

Big apologies for having to bail today everyone. Nothing quite like phone calls when you are on the first tee. Everyone and the cars are back home safely now. Hope you all enjoyed Kooralbyn, it is a favourite of mine. Please let me know who had birdies and where.

See you all tomorrow.

Never have kids ...

[Ferrins]

Pfffttttt!

[PeteyD]

Was a bit late to call you in.

[Ferrins]

Scooby Doo told me to go out there for a possible lucky loser spot. Tough break Pete.

[PeteyD]

At least Lefty gave me lift from the tee back to the carpark in the cart.

[henno]

I three putted every birdie chance I had, with the exception of the 18th.... because that was an eagle putt from 12 feet, that I three putted also.
