There is no golf this weekend due to NSW Country Championships being played at the Parkes Golf Club.
On Sunday, November 9, the first round of Club Championships sponsored by The Parkes Golf Club will be played.
Joke of the week - A touring golf professional was having a drink at the Club’s bar when he was approached by a chap with a white cane and dark glasses who introduced himself as a golf champion.
I am Champion of the Blind Golfer’s Association and as one champion to another, I would like to challenge you to a match which could be a fundraiser for the blind.
He said he didn’t want any favors and told the pro he wanted to play for $200 a hole.
The embarrassed pro tried to avoid the challenge, but the blind man was so insistent he finally agreed.
“Okay, when will we play?” he asked.
“Any night. Any night at all!”
