Central West vets enjoying lunch at Oberon Golf Club after the game

Central West vets golf results for game played at Oberon April 7

Hi everyone,

A very big field of 70 Central West vet golfers played a round of golf at the beautiful Oberon golf course. A course where if your golf is giving you a hard time you can always enjoy the day by looking at the wonderful views. Unfortunately, golf was hard going today and most of us were doing a lot of looking at the views. 

The fairways have plenty of run, but the wind made it hard to keep the ball on the on the short grass. The greens, especially the 6th and the 12th were too fast and almost unplayable which reflected on the scores with only four players in the field playing to their handicap or better.

However, the great hospitality and nice lunch at the end of the round provided by Oberon staff soon let us forget our difficulties on the course.

On to results

The winner in A grade with an excellent score of 39 points was CW vets captain David Agst. David played solid golf throughout with 20 points on the front nine and 19 on the back nine.

Second was Doug Westcott with 33 points on a countback from Phillip Sturt and Richard Lesh.

Best in B grade was local identity Glyn Samuel with 39 points. Glyn kept his best till last with birdies on the 17th and 18th holes. Second was David Campbell with 37 points.

The Ladies winner was Judith Brewer with 36 points. Judith had 17 points on the front nine and came home with a very solid 19 points.
