Staroba April Medal : The Bukit Unggul Country Club...

Sunday, 18th April 2010

The Staroba April Medal was held at the Bukit Unggul Country Club on Sunday afternoon and about 30 or so golfers took part in this event. Pakdokter had not played at this course for a few years and was surprised at the good condition of the course. Obviously the management has done a good job at maintaining the course.

The course, although short, was made challenging by the narrow fairways that demand accurate and straight shots to keep your ball in play. The valleys, drains and deep roughs in all the holes were always a challenge and without the help of caddies most of us lost a lot of balls throughout the game. At the end of the day, pakdokter returned with a fairly commendable score of 28 stableford points or thereabouts but not good enough to win any prizes. Only pakYuzer Yusof, who played in pakdokter's flight took away one of the 9 prizes by scoring 33 stableford points or so. The other players in pakdokter's flight was pakAli Ariffin and pakHamid Shafie. All these guys were pakdokter's juniors in STAR.

The winner was Redzuan Yusoff who also took the bounty from the bull's eye pool for the day.
