Course Update
  • Divots! Divots! Divots!  Pleeeeeeeeeze everyone, repair your divots (and any others you come across). Make sure to have a sand bucket with you at all times, (even when practicing!) and use it. Every shot will require some sort of turf repair.
  • A reminder that the "Monday Madness" competition format changes to a Yellow course 9-hole on Monday 6th July.
  • The Paths project gets underway on the 6th July on the 6th, 7th, 10th and 12th holes.
  • The area to the north of the 8th fairway and green is very soft underfoot. This area receives almost no sunlight during the Winter months and as a result remains soft and wet for most of this period. This year the area is wetter than usual, so the area has been roped-off and GUR established. 3 Drop zones with Blue stakes have been positioned on the other side of the fairway (in the rough) for players to use. Use the most appropriate zone. (See the photos below.)​
  • The John Owens draw is displayed on both the pro shop and main clubhouse notice boards. There are tee times established for each 'Match' on the relevant Sundays.
  • The club kitchen wash-bay floor was in urgent need of repair, and over the weekend the repair process was commenced. As might be expected, in a building as old as our clubhouse, more work was revealed when the old floor covering was removed. Thankfully one of our members came to our assistance and is fixing the problem. The new floor covering will be completed by next weekend. There will hopefully be no interruption in the kitchen operation during this time.
  • A new cart path is being established beside the cart storage shed to improve access. In addition, a cart wash-bay will be constructed to reduce some of the drainage issues in the area above the shed entry.
  • Members are reminded of the following regarding annual fee renewal. Payments are due by July 1, non- financial members after July 31 will be removed from the membership database.
    Payment options are available on playing categories, please contact accounts@bowralgolfclub.com.au, or if you would like to discuss your membership options please contact Kevin Kenny.
