Yarra Yarra Golf Club (34)

After a late change the SGA Victoria Movember charity day was heading back to Yarra Yarra Golf Club for the annual event to raise money for this wonderful cause.




Much better weather greeted us this year after last year's storms.




The course had had fairways on nine holes over sown recently and preferred lies were being played.  Did not affect the enjoyment of a wonderful course, with the greens as always in excellent condition running quite fast.



Started the first nine with a reasonable 16 points, but struggled the second nine and finished with 26 points on the day,






Fantastic par threes at Yarra Yarra with the above par 3 11th hole a highlight.  Even with the pin at the front the sloping green makes for a very difficult par.

Settlers Run Golf Club (68)

A SGA Tour Victoria game at the Greg Norman designed Settler's Run Golf Club in Melbourne's south east.


Clubhouse

18th green

Started on the 10th hole and despite a four putt start managed to put together 19 points on the first nine.


17th hole - Par 4

The short par 4 17th hole is a great risk reward hole, where you can lay up leaving a wedge in or go for glory and the green.

Started the second nine with a par at the par 5 first, but then the wheels fell off before finishing for a total of 31 points.
