Carpentaria Golf Club course proved an unforgiving master when 13 Dawnbusters teed off in hot conditions on 2 March.

Beth Dall won the day with a nett 13 to secure the coveted Dawnbusters winner’s polo shirt on just her seventh attempt at Sunday morning success, but her victory came at a cost as the handicappers slashed 23 strokes off her game ahead of next week’s action.

Simon Ayles, who will line up for his final game of Dawnbusters on 9 March as he prepares to farewell Weipa, took runner-up honours with nett 22.

Scott Andrews and Chelsea Buckley were impressive with the big sticks and took home the men’s and women’s long drive gongs respectively.

Kaylie Wong was crowned the weekly Hoffman’s recipient playing only her second game of Dawnbusters.

Players will tackle the front nine holes this Sunday morning, with the golf set to be followed by a barbecue and drinks to farewell Ayles in his Dawnbusters swansong.

The first group will tee off from about 6:45am, with new golfers always welcome.
