The Full Circuit
This year's MacKenzie at Royal Melbourne was significant to me as it meant that I have now completed the full circuit of courses in the MacKenzie Society.
Royal Melbourne is a great golf course with amazing bunkering; the greens were on the quick side (14 on the stimp!!). Unfortunately they certainly got the better of me; I went not putting too well and came back a jabbering wreck!
The Captain and stand in Director Martyn Duffield were the stars of the Moortown team scoring 74 points over the two days. But unfortunately I have to report that we lost to Alwoodley, who had their second best showing in the event.
Just to prove the camera does lie, the shirts were all the same colour! We were lucky enough to play at Kingston Heath on the Sunday, who will be hosting the World Cup of Golf next week, which was a real treat. All in all a great trip, I was asked a few times which my favourite of the MacKenzie courses is and which was the best trip?
To be honest I can't answer as they are all very different, club wise to be a member at? You'd go a long way to beat Moortown, and without doubt pound for pound, or dollar for dollar it wins by a street. Anyway it's only nine months before next year's trip to St Charles in Canada.
Back at Moortown the contractors have been in verti-draining the fairways and areas of heavy traffic, the deep aeration really pays dividends and is one of the reasons the course has been so good this year.
It is the second Christmas Competition on Saturday, there are a few places available for both ones and two so if you fancy a game then please either book on line or contact us in the shop.
