With perfect weather and everything warming up, the red belly black snakes are out sunning themselves around the course. So please be careful ,not only in the rough as these slithering beauties are sure to be regular visitors. The course is in great shape and with most bunkers now back in play. And with the outstanding greens, come out and join us and play this wonderful course.
Happy golfing everyone, and until next time…
