A new season of golf got under way at Merrigum on Saturday with a four-ball best-ball stableford event.
It was a warm start to the new season and Andrew Wood and Phil Barca got their year off to a great start, winning with a well compiled 45 points.
Woody had a good day out and lost a portion from his handicap, but Happy proved a useful foil any time Woody went astray.
No doubt they are hoping that their year will continue in a similar winning vein.
Woody and Happy needed to combine well, however, because the runners-up were only one point behind them.
A pair of long hitters in Ash Sanders and Cory Berghofer teamed up to be the ball competition winners with a score of 44 points with Ash’s recent run of good form continuing.
The pair also won the chook shed challenge with 11 points ahead of two pairs with 10 points.
Ash also took the nearest the pin on the sixth, Mooroopna visitor Greg Hillier was closest on the ninth and 14th and Andrew Wood took the jackpot on the 12th.
Saturday’s event is stableford.
