About Us
Welcome to Bods
BODS is a Sydney based social golf club that was started to enable a few mates to have an opportunity to catch up for a regular beer and a game of golf. We play at different courses each month and have events and formats that give everyone an opportunity to win.
The club owes much of it's success and longevity to Scott (The Dog) Muir, who put in countless hours of his own time to get the idea off the ground and give it the momentum over the last 22 years and counting. Scott was elected as a Life Member in December 2019.
Membership has surged in the last few years and 2023 we had 29 members.
Membership will be set at 30 for 2024 so we ask all players to pay up front as soon as possible.
Read below to understand how it all began.
21 September 2024- Life Members Trophy 2 Ball Stableford Multiplier
JT hits form at last
Well our former lowest handicapped player broke through for his first win in 3 years and his 4th since joining club in April 2011.A good round of 43 pipped out Tyrone Ford who is in good form going into the Tour.
Good to see George El Amal back from his travels and back in good form and Josh Peterson played better to avoid going into B Grade.
A big welcome to our new member Matt Spalding another left hander and apparently has nick names of The professor and Dumbledor we will wait to see what his Bods nickname will be but welcome aboard Matt.
Also good to see Horrie back playing but not a great day and has a date with the wig at his next game.
The Life Members trophy day is becoming a great event and this year we introduced the Skins and Survivor games.
In the skins some of the teams went well- Ty/Josh 10 balls, Chris Smith and Darren Cheney 16 balls,John Tidyman and John Bruker 4balls,Darren Shields/ George El Amal 6 balls no luck for Schweizer and Mick Smith or Scotty McCulloch and Horrie O'Shea better luck next year.
The survivor game is a simple mission take a ball hit it each hole with your partner and hand it back in after 18 holes. Simple but only 1 team were able to do that- John Tidyman and John Bruker. Special mention to George and Darren who lost their ball about 6 times but finally lost it for good it was very entertaining to watch.
Well hopefully i have had my final game as a ranger get the all clear today so back for the tour.
On a sad note we have another former Bods original in hospital with Boyd Archer in rehab at Camden after suffering a stroke. Tyrone and myself have visited him he is in good spirits.
We still have plenty of caps $35 and can holders $10 available please bring your money to the next game.We need to sell them out soon so we can have a good Xmas party.
