2024 Easter Cup – Tim Guerin wins on a countback

March 29, 2024

Congratulations to Tim Guerin on winning our 2024 Easter Cup with a score of 38 points. He just beat Griffo who also had 38 points, but Tim wins on a countback with his 21 points on the back 9. This year we had the pleasure of playing BJ’s course out at Gardiners Run out in Lilydale and the weather was a warm 28 degrees with little breeze. Perfect golfing conditions. The course was in magnificent condition and everyone enjoyed the day. Thank you to our organisers Ray, Tim Fefis & BJ. Last years winner Tim (TJ) Bonnett presented the trophy.

2023 Easter Cup – TJ Bonnett smashes them

April 7, 2023

Good Friday 2023 was supposed to hammer down rain. Thankfully the rain stayed away and Tim Bonnett took full advantage, winning the Easter Cup with a magnificent 38 points. In a huge turnaround from his shithouse effort of 14 points last year, TJ declared in his victory speech: “This is one for the common man! This proves anyone can win a golf tournament without binoculars for distance and a motorised fucking buggy.”

Well done TJ!

2020 Easter Cup

April 10, 2020

The 2020 Easter Cup finished in controversial circumstances, with the winner being declared as Corona Virus. Starting from a long way back, Virus came from nowhere and practically had the course to itself as it racked up 95,506 stableford points. Barry Williams finished 2nd, but wasted his time turning up. Original Bucker Ray Kimber was overheard declaring, “Forget the 10 shot rule, this Virus is a fucking cheat, it’s now banned and won’t be invited ever again.”
