Thank you to everyone who entered last month's competition - a very popular prize! The lucky winner was Leif Rasmussen from Manly Golf Club - congratulations Leif. Leif knew that a player may not place a club on the ground during the stroke to aid in alignment.
This month we have six prizes up for grabs - the best in outerwear from Cutter & Buck. Just answer an easy rules question for your chance to win!
We acknowledge our first Volunteer of the Month, and a high achiever from Waratah Golf Club...and as always there's the very popular Rules Quiz.
We hope you enjoy this issue and wish you good golfing!
