2008 Senior Medal Winner
I have been a golfer for many, many years now and I’ve been a member of the Quamby / Prospect Vale GC for the last 9 years. I’ve won my share of prizes in that time, this year I decided to give something back to the club. The club has grown in the last three years since we moved to Country Club Tasmania and a large number of the newer members are seniors. With that in mind I choose to donate a prize for the Senior Medal.
The inaugural winner of the Senior Medal for 2008 is Denis Lockwood! The prize is a 12” x 18” framed print of Safety Cove. Congratulations Denis!!

Golf Tasmania Centenary Gala Dinner
This is a quite a bit late but, better late than never.
Last month Golf Tasmania celebrated it's centenary. Part of the centenary celebrations was a dinner and the first Tasmanian Golf Hall of Fame Induction. I was lucky enough to be there to take photos of the event and the following are a small selection from that night.
It was a great night! The inductees were very good and the comedian was a good laugh!

Framed Print Sale
A few weeks ago I got some of my favourite prints framed. I've had several prints done in the past but never got around to framing any of them, so I decided now was a good time.
I had some big areas of blank wall space I wanted to fill so I choose three of my large prints. I choose 1 - 20x30in print (of Safety Cove) and 2 - 18x24in prints (of The Nut at Stanley and IR Lake). When I got them home I found I didn't have the space for all three.
Luckily I had an idea. I knew someone was interested in purchasing the "The Nut" image. So I offered it to her and she jumped at the chance to buy it. She took possession of the print on Friday.
This image doesn't do it justice. It really looked fantastic!
These are the over two prints that were framed.

Round 6 Pennant
Well the final round has come and gone quite some time ago. The club won one
pennant (Div 8), and had two runner-up’s (Div 3 & 7).
It was a fantastic effort by Div 8 to win their pennant, with a play-off
deciding the day.
Division 3 Played Greens Beach, at Prospect Vale for the final round. Both
teams knew they had no chance of winning the pennant this year. That hounor
had already gone to Bridport. The team was Corey deBruyn, Duane Morgan, Paul Martin, Duncan MacFarlane, Matt Millwood, John Murray, Matt Adams and Nic Bauld. The winners were Duane Morgan, Paul Martin, Duncan MacFarlane, Matt Millwood, Matt Adams and Nic Bauld. A big victory in the last round but, too late to change the season.
The other game in Div 3 was Bridport v Exeter. Bridport won 6/1
Division 7 played Tam O'Shanter at Tam O'Shanter. This was a big day for the
team. We held our destiny in our hands, win and win the pennant, loose and most likely loose the pennant to Scottsdale. The team was Colin Butterworth, Steve Lovegrove, Anthony Burrows, Denis Lockwood, Dan Scott, Mitchell Britton-Thomas and Justin Ryan. I was confident in the teams ability to win away from home but we fell at the last hurdle. The winners were Colin Butterworth, Denis Lockwood and Justin Ryan. The team lost two of three play-off's (they are the one's that hurt).
The other game in Div 7 was Mowbray v Scottsdale. Scottsdale won 5/2
Division 8 played Bridport at Bridport. This was a grand final of sorts. They were the only two teams that could really win the pennant. The team was Richard Lawson, Stephen Clarke, Glen Duncan, Leon Towns, Steve Burris, Peter Gardner and Neil Chenhall. It was a close day with the result decided with a play-off. In the end Prospect Vale were victorious 4/3 and clinched the pennant title. The winners were Richard Lawson, Glen Duncan, Peter Gardner and Steve Burris.
The other game in Div 8 was Exeter v Launceston. Exeter won 4/3
The Final Ladders
Div 3
In the end Prospect Vale finished the year in second place behind Bridport. It's not a win but it is a good accomplishment. The team used 14 different players during the course of the season. They were Corey deBruyn, Matt Marston, Colin Butterworth, Richard Lawson, Matt Adams, Nic Bauld, Justin Ryan, Paul Martin, Duane Morgan, Matt Thomas, Steve Lovegrove, John Murray, Duncan MacFarlane, and Matt Millwood. A BIG thanks to everyone who played for the team!
As a side note, there were 6 undefeated players in div 3 for the season. They were Colin Butterworth, Matt Thomas, Steve Lovegrove, John Murray, Duncan MacFarlane and Matt Millwood. That could be the nucleus of a new team!?! ;)
Bridport 5-1 28/14
Prospect Vale 3-3 25/17
Greens Beach 3-3 20/22
Exeter 1-5 11/32
Div 7
So close but so far away! That was our season in a nut shell.
To win the pennant we needed to beat Tam O'Shanter on their home track. Not an easy task. The team had one change from the previous week with Justin Ryan coming in for Pete Gardner. we had a strong team but Tam O'Shanter were just as strong.
It was heart breaking to loose the day 4/3, especially with the amount of play-off's we had. The day was made worse when we finally found out that Scottsdale had beaten Mowbray.
We used 11 players for the season, they were Steve Lovegrove, Anthony Burrows, Adam Pawson, Daniel Scott, Denis Lockwood, John Cullen, Mitchell Britton-Thomas, Richard Fleming, Peter Gardner, Colin Butterworth and Justin Ryan. Thanks for playing guys, maybe we can do one better next year. I think we have a team capable of winning a pennant, we just need to work harder next time.
We had 3 players undefeated in the team, Adam Pawson, John Cullen and Justin Ryan.
Scottsdale 4-2 27/15
Prospect Vale 4-2 26/16
Tam O'Shanter 2-4 18/24
Mowbray 2-4 13/29
Div 8
Div 8 came from nowhere to win their last 4 rounds and to win the pennant this year. They shattered the hopes of several teams on their march to glory, most notably that of Launceston. They struggled to get a team on the field one week, they also struggled to keep the same players in the side each week due to other commitments. However, the end result was positive!
They broke the long streak of years without pennant victory and I hope they can do it again next year.
They used 15 players for the season, they were Don Mackie, Steve Clark, Glen Duncan, Scot Limbrick, Steve Burris, Neil Chenhall, Leon Towns, Glenn Summers, Owen Smith, John Burt, Andy Barnes, Barry Pearn, John Cullen, Richard Lawson and Peter Gardner.
They had 6 players that were undefeated for the season, they were Glen Duncan*, Glenn Summers, Andy Barnes, John Cullen, Richard Lawson and Peter Gardner.
Glen Duncan gets a special mention for winning all 6 of his games for the year. A fantastic achievement!!

Hole in one, Cullen
After years of no hole in ones at my golf club we have had plenty in recent months, the most recent was today. John Cullen made a hole in one on the 15th hole of the Country Club Tasmania course.
Well done John!!
