Mid Week Men Visit Foxton April 20th 2017

A fifty minute drive took 8 Waikanae men to Foxton for our annual visit. It was worth the trip to get your golf shoes on dry land for a change. We were hosted by about 20 locals and sadly we were beaten on the day by an average stableford of 31.75 points to 31.25. The top Foxton score of the day was 39 stablefords and the best Waikanae could muster was 34 & 33 by Andy Provan & Gary Story.

We look forward to hosting Foxton on September 21st.
