Huntingdale Golf Club (38)

A new year and the first game with the SGA Tour Victoria for the year at the magnificent Huntingdale Golf Club in Melbourne's sandbelt.





The first game, great course and most people still on holidays had a large field for the early morning shotgun start.
They are getting serious

Started on the par 3 12th hole which is always a challenge for the first of the day, particularly when the green is surrounded by bunkers, which I managed to find.

Par 3 12th hole


Bunker play was better today (and it needed to be) and managed to get out of all the greenside and fairway bunkers I found although just one sand save.


Par 5 14th tee


Played reasonably for 16 points each nine, so 32 in total, no wipes and no lost balls. 



Par 3 15th hole
The tees were forward on a number of the holes for example the par 3 15th where we were playing from around 120m, whereas the hole can go back to about 141m plus.


Par 4 16th hole from fairway


Par 4 18th hole


 
Probably most consistent round since back from injury although put the driver away and still struggling with the over the top swing and resulting slice.
