Around 40 inductees and their guests attended the Wrest Point Hole-In-One Club Cocktail Party in the Casino s Wellington Room last Saturday evening. This fabulous night marked the twelfth hosting of this event since its inception in 2001, a night where golfers gather to celebrate their extraordinary golfing feats. 86 holes-in-one were recorded in the 2011 period, slightly below the 107 average of the twelve years of the club which includes extraordinary results of 120 and 142 in 2005 and 2006 respectively. Attendees who recorded a hole-in-one during 2011/12 were presented with a commemorative pin by Golf Tasmania Board member Bob Joel. Tasmania Golf Club’s Chris Gribble and Orford s Denise McPartlin achieved two aces during the 2011 registration period. Given the recognised odds at best being one in every 5000 (rounds) a truly outstanding achievement. Congratulations to all 2011 inductees and a sincere thank you to Wrest Point for its ongoing support of the Hole in One Club.
