Saturday 4th April 2026
Happy Easter everyone, hope you all got your chocky fill.
I have always found the yellow course difficult ( I didn't play this time) but seeing the results a lot don't.
(What he also didnt see was the chaos at the start when for reasons unknown, Motueka Golf Club disappeared from the Network and worldwide web of things. Cant help but think that somewhere in a Chorus/Telecom technical cabinet on Saturday morning a Tech said "I wonder what this cable does?" as they pulled it out. Well we know dont we!!)
While sitting here I wonder what the re rating has done, I'll be interested in peoples comments.
Looks a good size field considering the Totaradale Open being played.

Mens Club Champs start this coming weekend April 11th. Entry sheet in club house, self explanatory Senior or Others. Remember any person can enter Senior. Now this is a new idea to trial. It's NOT set in stone, we may need to change again next year. Please give us constructive feedback,not a lot of WAFFLE on how we used to do it. Society has changed. Remember there isn't any bad ideas until they don't work.
Entry for Champs close 5pm Wednesday 8th.
Remember to go hard and then go home. Good bye.
Well we are off to a great start this season with having 12 to 15 Ladies each Tuesday. Now the days are less busy and not as hot our numbers may very well increase.
The Inter club has started with the first round at Totaradale on 16th February. Unfortunately we didn't do as well as we hoped against Nelson with 1 halved game and 3 losses. Our next match at Greenacres against Tasman was much more successful with 3 halves and 1 loss by one shot. Onwards and upwards for our next challenge is on 20th April at Marlborough.
You will recall that in June 2019 President Peter announced in his Newsletter that if any member of our club purchased a vehicle from Bowater Hyundai/Isuzu, either new or used, the club will benefit by $250.
It's all ticking along very nicely. Thank you to Bowaters, and thank you too to our members who have all purchased vehicles.
