A solid 44 off the stick was enough to provide Scott Triffitt with victory when 19 golfers got a 6am start on 27 October for the latest round of Dawnbusters action in Weipa.
Triffitt tamed the Carpentaria Golf Club course to card nett 16 and bag the coveted Dawnbusters shirt, with Kerry Boshammer (gross 55/nett 16) having to settle for bridesmaid honours after ending up on the wrong end of a countback.
Jim Lucas and Viv Chan had their drivers dialled in and found the fairway to claim the men’s and women’s big-hitting bragging rights for the round.
The same could not be said for the field with their short sticks, with the nearest to the pin prize on hole 9 going begging.
Beth Dall was the weekly Hoffman’s winner.
Players will have their last hit-out on 3 November before reputations and egos go on the line for the 2024 Dawnbusters Championships the following Sunday morning.
The first group will tee off from about 6am to beat the Weipa heat.
