Course Update – Wednesday 2 April 2025

Dear Members,

You will see the grass has been laid on the 5^th green, with outcomes to the design being:

• Increase heights to the left front and back, to allow pin places through these sections
• Increase run offs to these sections to feed errant shots away from the green
• Increase the size to the back right, to again increase the pin placement area
• General flattening of the green, keeping a ridge to the back right, but subtle slopes for difficult reads- The design philosophy of the MCC Greens

This green should be back in play by the start of May.

The mound protecting the front right off the green will be softened, bringing the dirt back into the front right, to stop balls all feeding to the same spot.

1^st Green

The Shaper has now finished with the outcomes of design being:

• Increase the width of the left side, bringing the bunkering more into play and more pins through the whole left side, front to back.
• Soften the back left around to the back right, to allow more pin positions through the back section of the green.
• Retain the defined ridge from the front left up to the back right, for more difficult access to pins

We have decided to sow this green from seed, so this will take around 12 weeks, but give us the best outcome.

There will be drainage installed from the current sumps in the front and the high right side, thus allowing drainage of water, instead of the pooling.

It has again been a very difficult summer, with little rain making high salt content, and early humidity that can bring in diseases.

In general, the course remains in excellent condition, and for those that have been playing golf from Bunbury, right through our local area, you will see the real difficulties courses have faced this summer, with most having major issues to greens. MCC has given much of its nursey turf to assist green patching elsewhere.

We acknowledge and thank your course team, fantastically lead by Stewart, who have been able to manage these difficulties and continue to present the course in excellent playing condition.  

Much works has been done with Kikuyu and Poa controls, whilst couch encroachment is still a real industry issues, and one we too need to tackle.

We have had an irrigation issue cause the problem at the back of 18, this will shortly be turfed out.

MCC Footy Tipping – Round 3 – W/ending 30/03/2025

First and foremost, we had two tippers select 8 correct winners what a great effort from Tobes and CheryHawk!!  That of course means our weekly prize has gone off, but there can be only one as the saying goes and it was Toby, compliments of the nearer margin (8 points) who takes the prize, well done mate, $60 is waiting for you in the office!!  No less than 16 of us correctly selected 7 winners, while a further 19 of us found 6 tips to our liking.  There were a few of us snagged 5 tips, some compliments of a misguided loyalty, stay true folks, stay true!!  However, there were even a couple of 4’s in there and more than 1 3, 4 in fact! (follow that train of thought if you dare!!).

As mentioned, it was a derby prize on offer and yes, while a few of us did back a West Coast win, and a good number of us didn’t actually get a selection in, the vast majority tipped a Freo victory, go figure! That meant we were separated by margin, and one tipper got the margin perfect, congratulations go to Gavin Harrison (GavHarro) well done mate, Shareen has $50 with your name on it!

And so to our leader board and compliments of a terrific weekend of Tipping, Toby now lead the pack, sharing the stage with GoPapa, both with 21 tips.  Hot on their heals on 20 is Alday, S Brennan, Morgo, Chips, Locky and Back2Back.  Kingpen and Puckers12 with 19 round out our top 10, however also on 19 are Haydos, CheryHawk, KB, Barady, weescot, Eric, Howsthat, Kaydee, Paddles118, Fyfey and Brett.Mavrick.  The field is already starting to spread, so don’t let the leaders get away from you!!

There are 11 of us still in the knockout comp, so keep it going folks, well done.

Friday night saw the lucky tippers draw at the clubhouse and once again it has jackpotted, so get along on Friday and see if you can get a piece of the $60 on offer now!
