A check on the PGA of Australia website shows a distinct lack of information about the Von Nida Tour.

I was trawling around the interweb and found this site called Wordle.Their description for the site is:

Based on data from 300,000 Swedish golfers, a researcher at the Karolinska Institute has found out that people who play golf can expect to live 5 years longer. Golfers have a lower death rate than non-golfers, with the effect being greater for golfers from blue-collar professions than for those from white-collar, and the lowest rates are found in the group of players with the lowest handicap. A perfect excuse to play more…

Well the night of nights came and went - and what a night it was.Some “Legends of Cammeray” hit the scene including:Our two stalwarts - Neil Smith and David “Dicko” Dickinson tops my list of “Legends of Cammeray” and it was great to see them once again attend the night. How many presso’s has it been in a row guys?

Ah, it’s that time of year again when we get our hopes up, and dream of the possibility an Australian will win the one major that has so far eluded us. The Masters.

Cammeray’s 75th anniversary Presentation night have now been set. Keep the night of May 24 free for the Presso night.

Cammeray picked up most of the Individual A Grade Awards at Monday night’s Association Presentation Night. Peirthy collected the Batting Aggregate award, Kano scooped up the Bowling Aggregate and Averages awards, Coleman, the Wicket-Keeping Award. A great night was capped with our own Junior receiving the prestigious NSCA recognition award for his contribution to the game. Well done all.

Most high handicappers come up short out of greenside bunkers about 90% of the time.This is the result of not accelerating the club through the sand - they get scared they will hit the ball to hard and fly over the green.As you set up in the bunker, think in terms of striking the sand with enough force so that the ball will land near the hole on the fly. You will find that most of your sand shots will end up closer to the pin instead of coming up short.This will also help your Sand Saves stats!

Most high handicappers set goals of breaking 100 or 90.Instead of thinking in terms of breaking a particular score, set your goals around things like number of fairways hit, number of greens in regulation, number of sand saves, and number of putts.As you practice to make yourself better in these things, your score will improve without really thinking about it.

The dream ended on the weekend when the season ended with a thud for the Cammeray A’s going down in the big one to Kirribilli/Crusaders. Cammers lost the toss and bowled first and managed to get K/C out for 208 runs. A solid start from our openers to get close to a quarter of the required score without losing a wicket looked extremely promising. Unfortunately we lost our way and lost 7 wickets in the space of 41 runs to see us go from 0/48 to 7/89 - Yikes. Despite a late order resurgent led by Scarf (31 n.0) it was always going to be too much runs to peg back - all out for 134.
