Check out the flag stick

Almost unplayable in those conditions

Played golf on the beach course at Waiokoloa on the Big Island of Hawaii nearly a month ago.

On the par 5 seventh my ball finished somewhere here in the dried up lava

Was blowing a gale off the ocean.

Looks amazing, I definitely want to organise a trip, was going overseas in July and was going to hit up some courses in Norway, doesn't look like that's happening anymore

Usually I’d be monitoring the weather and radar sat and sun morning. No more.

That’s what happens in a police State.

Thanks scomo!

Admittedly you can still walk onto any public course.

 

[Lebbo73]

Thanks scomo!

Do you think that I support ScoMo on this crap?

 

[juss]

Big fines in Victoria if you golf.
I took my wedges down to this massive local park the other day and hit a few 10 metres chips at a bucket.
I wonder if that counts as golf, there's a reported fine of up to $20,000.

Andrews?

 

[Lebbo73]

Andrews?

Definitely not. He’s acting like a person with access to unfettered power to do what he wants.

Listening to the ABC radio on Thursday. A doctor was on giving some stats.
80% of people who contract COVID 19 will have mild to severe flu symptoms but will be fine. 20% will need hospitalisation but will recover. 5% of them will die.
My club has 800 members, which means 8 people will statistically die and 160 would be hospitalized if we did nothing. Given the demographic of most golf clubs, those numbers would most certainly be higher.
The virus is obviously highly contagious.
Unfortunately for our own desires to play, we need to not play.
My guess is until end of July at least.

I don't think we'll be playing until September at best here in Victoria, obviously i really hope i'm wrong. Could be a lot longer too imo, we may not be playing until a vaccine is widely available. The problem with flattening the curve is if it's successful you can't relax the rules because the moment you do numbers will go through the roof.

 

[Bicco]

As good as it's going to get for now.

Do you get relief if your ball ends on the path.

I've just asked a mate to buy a net so we can have ZOOM chipping completions! I don't miss the big net to often but getting 4 in a row into the little one is not something I've managed yet.
Plenty of time to keep trying though.

How’s the theft of your civil liberties going for everyone down there in Victoria? I played 18 holes of golf yesterday at a nice course (Toowoomba Golf Club). I sent this text below to a mate:

Teed off at 2:30 and played from where the blue tees would have been (toughest tees). $20 because of late tee off. Normally $35. Course was in good nick. Greens are slow but they must’ve cored them last week. No markers, no flags, no sand buckets. The pins were in order of front, middle, back, front, middle, back, etc for holes 1 to 18. The buckets in the holes were upside down.
It was Par 70 and I shot 90 off the stick. I couldn’t putt to save myself but my tee shots were good on every hole except for holes 2 and 8.

Not bad. Sure it sucks not being about to play at PK or The National. Also had rounds for Kingston Heath cancelled. Pebble Beach, Spyglass and Poppy Hills trip also cancelled. Once the corona is ova ill go.

Trying to figure out what i and fellow golfers can do about our rights. Maybe call our MPs or lobby Dan Andrews?

Not happy with the good job Vic is doing in keeping the infection rate down mate?

Im fine with not playing. It was a query in reply to and directed towards lebbo73

There are people who are really struggling with the ban.
