It\u2019s a busy time at the Orbost Golf Club, with this weekend seeing their next major event, the Weekend of Golf.<\/p>\n
A wide range of events and prizes will be highlighted by a $1000 hole-in-one comp throughout the weekend, which has attracted plenty of interest.<\/p>\n
The committee has been working hard to get the course, surrounds and club house in its best possible condition to showcase everything that is great about Orbost golf.<\/p>\n
Saturday\u2019s event will be \u201cA’\u201d and \u201cB\u201d grade stableford, with Sunday \u201cA\u201d and \u201cB\u201d grade ambrose, with both events shotgun starts.<\/p>\n
BAIRNSDALE TOURNAMENT<\/p>\n
Young local star, Blake Robinson won the Bairnsdale 27 hole tournament last week, shooting sensational rounds of 71 and 35 to finish two strokes ahead of a quality field of Gippsland finest golfers.<\/p>\n
FOURSOMES CHAMPIONSHIP<\/p>\n
Recently a committed field of 20 players contested the mens foursomes championship, played in typical spring golfing conditions.<\/p>\n
The eventual winners were John Cuthbertson and Steve Robinson who took five play off holes to overcome Peter and Jacob Farley who were all tied after 18 holes.<\/p>\n
RECENT WINNERS<\/p>\n
Victorious on course recently have been Tony Munday (last Wednesday) and Laurie Billman, who returned from winter hibernation with a sensational 43 points.<\/p>\n
While Craig Savory claimed the \u2018Eagles Nest\u2019, making easy work of the 17th with his length off the tee and scoring well deserved two.<\/p>\n
