Unique aerial view of the Golf Course

This photograph was taken whilst the Club's immediate Past Captain, Gordon Eaton, was having his one-hour flying lesson.

It shows 12 of the holes at the southern end of the course and (apart from the par 3 holes) the dark humus which has been added to the fairways during the past week.

Lady Golfers at West Hove

The Club's new Dress Code was introduced in December 2010, just before the very cold and snowy weather arrived.

However, the Code appears to make no reference to fake fur, but two of our Lady Members, Jenny Davis (left) and Jill Corbett, were not deterred and found these hats the only way to combat the cold.

They must be "tee cosies"!
