the 3rd – Hogan’s Hole
“Famous internationally Narooma’s 3rd hole is one that must be played at least once in a golfer’s lifetime”
Melville Proud – Executive Officer NSW PGA
Wow! What a spectaclar setting! I can see why it would earn such acclaim.
Reminds me of the famous 16th hole at Cypress Point in Carmel, California.

Have you heard of Paul Hogan (aka Crocodile Dundee)?
Oh absolutely 🙂 Hogan is brilliant! His original comedy show first turned up in the states on a local Los Angeles TV station in the early 1980s, and I've been a fan ever since 🙂
Thanks to that original show I've also had a 30 plus year long crush on Delvene Delany 😄
It's probably just as well I live in the U.S. If I was in her vicinity I imagine she'd have filed a number of restraining orders against me by now LOL 😉

Ha ha! Yes on both counts 🙂
And of course you can't really play pitch and run shots across it because of that sponginess. You have to learn to play lob and flop shots.
That Santa Anna Couch has a very attractive look.
Learning the flop shots has come in handy here as you can leave yourself short on a number of holes.
Santa Anna does look good and its good to play off,(as long as the divots are filled in),

Oh by golly yes! I can tell you some fantastic tales of rounds being completely destroyed on that hole 😳

Ah, that's not so bad. I dream of breaking 80. I think my best ever has been 82, and I've done that twice.

My best was 71 off the stick at Portland and I had a 30 of the stick on the other nine hole executive course
here about 10 years ago but it's a par 33 course),

I played today - very badly 😢
Only managed 26 points I'm afraid. Just 1 wipe but way to many 1 pointers.
Ah well, it was a beautiful day and th company was very good.
We have our Open Tournament here this Sunday. I'm the VC and handicapper so I've got a bit on my plate atm.
That's another "bad" round out of the way so you should be due for a good one,
Played nine holes today on the par 33 course,(34 of the stick for a 32 nett).
Playing Saturday and Sunday this week,(if I could only take that over and score like that for the 18 holes),
