Fifteen players and about 15 million flies took to the Carpentaria Golf Club course in hot, sultry conditions to fight for the weekly Dawnbusters title on 13 October.

Jon Dall was too good when the field returned to the clubhouse, with a gross 49 and nett 10 more than enough to put victory out of reach of his opponents, including runner-up Kerry Boshammer, who carded 50 off the stick for a nett 12.

Boshammer claimed the women’s long drive honours for the week, with Les Saramin the biggest-hitting male of the round.

David Sands took the nearest to the pin prize, while John Graham was the Hoffman’s recipient after teeing off in his first Dawnbusters competition for 2024.

Dawnbusters will take on the back nine holes on 20 October, with the first playing group scheduled to tee off from 6:15am.

New players are always welcome – more flies are not.
