Barnbougle Dunes



Currently down at Moonah Links doing the final tournament of the Australian summer golf season. One day to go, and two Americans in the lead (by four shots) and we are hoping for a bit of contest tomorrow in the final round as today was fairly average TV viewing with everyone going backwards and very little to enthuse about.

Tough conditions to be sure, but that still doesn't help when you are trying to dredge up a contest when none appears to be in existence.

Anyway, some good prospects for tomorrow, including some high quality young Aussies in contention like Andrew Dodt and Jarrod Lyle who are a good chance to create a bit of a stir.

Prior to the Moonah event, I headed down to the brilliant Barnbougle Dunes in Tasmania to shoot a couple of pieces for 'The Pro Shop' with cohort Jay Townsend (pictured). It is a must visit for anyone who loves golf, and will become an even more essential pilgrimage once the second course, "The Lost Farm" is up and running come October this year.

In the picture is one of the best short par three's ever built, the 7th at the Dunes.
