BRIGHT COUNTRY GOLF CLUB We all realise that it’s been rather cold in Bright over the past couple of weeks, but we need to consider that there are other places much colder than where we play. Take for instance, did you know that, in 1995 the Antarctic Open was played at McMurdo Station during the 1994-1995 season? Organised by MaryAnn Sullivan, a recreation specialist, the course is mapped out each year by scientists and researchers, and officially named, the McMurdo Station Golf Course. Fluorescent golf balls are used, and the course is entirely made of snow and ice. Now back to reality, Sunday 2 August, open to all golfers, Stableford competition. Winner was Doug Paton, 11 H/C 36 pts and ball winners were James Paton 35 pts and Tristan Armstrong 33 pts C/B. Monday 3 August, Veteran’s Stableford competition. Winner: John Treyvaud 30 H/C 39 pts. Runner up: Ray Borschmann 21 H/C 33 pts. NTPs - 3rd: Rod Brown, 6th: Rod Brown, 11th: Greg Dawson. Thursday 6 August, men’s Stableford competition.

Third: Andrew Badrock 12 H/C 39 pts. Fourth: Phillip O’Neill 7 H/C 39 pts. Ball winners: Doug Badrock 37 pts C/B, Ray Borschmann 37 pts, Rod Brown 36 pts, Paul Duff 36 pts C/B.

The NAGA went to a couple of lovely ladies from Myrtleford, Vicki Sims and Liz Hepburn with 32 points, but they did appreciate their Auburn Bowls Club glasses. The Bright Golf Guru question of the week: if you suddenly found yourself in the bushes, and a snake was between you and your ball, what would you do? A: wait till it moved away, or B: scream and run away telling everyone around you that you had encountered? Something to consider next summer.
