Golfing for the gift of sight

  • My best round of golf this year!

      2 July 2011

    Today I played my best round of golf this year. The weather was overcast, but not cold and no wind, so it was nice to be out this afternoon and not working int he office. I shot a 77, which included 2 birdies and 12 pars. It could have been alot better if it wasnt for a couple of bad holes! In all, i raised another $10 for the charity.

  • Finally a fine day to play golf!!

      26 June 2011

    It's been a long time waiting, but finally we got a nice day to play golf today in the naki! I played out at the Kaitake Golf Club with 3 other friends and did well on a challenging little par 68 course. I managed to shoot a 75 with 2 birdies and 9 pars to amass another $8.50 towards the cause. Lets hope there are many more fine days for golf on the horizon!

  • Some bright spots amongst the rain :)

      29 May 2011

    It's been awhile but finally i got back onto the golf course and played some good golf considering it rained on and off throughout the round. I shot 80 with 6 pars and 3 birdies, so i managed to raise a further $9 for the foundation. I have raised $57.50 so far this year...

  • Couldn't buy a birdie!

      14 March 2011

    Yesterday I played a round of golf with my dad and cousin in Masterton. We played at Mahunga, which is the golf club i first learn't how to play when i was young. We had great fun and i played very well to shoot a 74. I got 16 pars but i couldn't manage to get a birdie so i only got $8 donated in the end. A shame my dad and cousin couldn't donate as they piled on plenty of birdies and nearly got an eagle each! Maybe i should encourage them to join the cause with me :)

  • Back on the Birdies!

      6 March 2011

    Today I had a pretty up and down round but managed to fire 3 birdies for the cause. We were lucky to?finish the round before?the thunder storms and rain hit the golf course. I managed to raise $8 today for my round of 82, so it was a good result.

    I hit the golf course again today and survived 18 holes with my new and improved back :) I played some really good golf today and scored 11 pars and no birdies or eagles. So today's round has resulted in a donation of $5.50.

  • Nearly an Eagle today for the cause...

      15 January 2011

    I raised another $8 today with my round of 81 at the New Plymouth golf club. I should have been alot more as i nearly holed out my second shot on the Par 5 7th hole for an albatross! I then only needed to sink a 1 metre putt for an eagle to donate $10, but i missed :(
