After 23 years since Bunkers last played at Hurtmore Golf Club on April 26th 2002, we finally returned to Hurtmore. With 20 players attending including 2 guests and one of those 2 guests was another member of the Peters family who came to join us Ben Peters and welcoming back Ray Steele who last played with us March 6th 2024.
Breakfast brunch was a great just what we needed to start us off with a good round of golf.
The course itself was in good condition fresh fairways, fresh cut greens the bunkers really needed to be racked properly, it looked like they hadn’t been tended for quite a while.
