    Default South East Weekender May 22,23,24

    After many discussions after games that we should do a South East Weekender we now have our first one planned.

    It can be either a 2 day trip or a 3 day trip depending on if you can get the Friday off work.

    Dates are for May Friday 22nd, Saturday the 23rd and Sunday 24th.

    We are looking to stay in or near to Millicent.
    Everyone to arrange their own accommodation.
    Get in early and check with TC as he has something arranged with limited spare rooms.

    The Courses and Format
    Day 1_Friday May 22nd
    • Drive to and play Lucindale. Aim for hit off say around 12-12:30. Can finalise this time closer to date.
    • Drive to accommodation in/near Millicent
    Day 2_Saturday May 23rd
    • Play Millicent. If some are making it a 2 day trip we will play in the afternoon otherwise we might go for a morning time. Can also finalise this closer to date.
    Day 3_Sunday May 24th
    • Drive to and play Robe most likely mid to late morning.
    • Head home after game
    The List of who's going & how many Days:
    1. 3 days_Hatch - locked in
    2. 3 days_Thecollective - Dark pencil
    3. 3 days_Wazamac - Dark pencil
    4. 3 days_Hardpan - Dark pencil

    5. 2 days_Nadg - light pencil?

    Internally SA does not have the same level of restrictions as others. That’s why we still have closed borders so no interlopers stuff that up.

    Day 1 at Lucindale done and dusted.
    What look pretty miserable on the drive up with constant misty rained turned out to be a good on course with only a couple of misty showers lasting no more than 1 hole and 1 heavy shower that again was gone after completing the hole.
    Course was in good condition and similar to a Waikerie/Loxton in type except it has a few too many same direction doglegs repeating.
    Greens are predominantly flat and were playing medium to slow in pace.

    Day 2.
    18 holes at Millicent in morning then 9 around Beachport after some lunch.
    Mixed weather at Millicent with the front 9 being cool and fine. Constant misty rain with 2x heavy patches of rain from the 10th to the 15th. After that it fined up again.
    Beachport was fine a windy.

    Full of hopes and dreams of a good round before reality has a say in it.


    Nothing like a short par 5 to get the day started.



    If you can’t be long enough for 2 make sure your out on the right side or forget getting on for 3

    Ball was hell bent on getting to this unplayable spot after a big kick in the second cut sent it off at angle into the tree line.

    Great trip so far; Lucindale really surprised me in a good way. Great land, excellent greens, a few really good bunkers.

    Millicent has some very good holes; really nice backdrop and the soil is pure sand belt. The stretch from 14-17 is very ordinary but besides that lives up to the hype.

    Beach port is a flat hit and giggle, fine for a wind down but nothing else.

    Really looking forward to a curry (good Indian in Millicent according to Trip Advisor) and then Robe tomorrow morning.

    I suggest we do this trip again in a few years

    Default South East Weekender May 22,23,24

    We went Sweet & Sour Pork and Mongolian Beef at Bompas in Beachport last night. Was very nice.

    Tonight it’s Pizza, Ravioli Bol & Gnocchis Bol at Mad Penguin in Millicent. Authentic Italian they say.
    Sorry, authentic Italian does not come from packet Gnocchi and Ravioli. Very average at best. Disappointing.
    Should have gone to Ginos down the road.
