1# Andrew Hill:
The reigning treble club champion, not much left to prove in his own game, Hilly carries with him an impeccable pennant record losing only a handful of matches in over 10 seasons.
On several occasions going through the season undefeated!
Hilly's game is sound, generally down the middle, hits most greens and is a descent putter.
He is almost the perfect matchplay competitor.
We are counting on him to lead the team from the front.
2# Guy Holman (C):
His accomplishments on the golf course speak for themselves, pennant champion, club champion, district champion, Guy thrives in the heat of competition & pennant season is his favirote time of the year.
Guy carries with him an X Factor in his game, capable of going very low and scoring a blizzard of birdies, with impeccable ball striking.
His 2012 has started well & he carries good form into pennant, first year as pennant captain and is eager to put in a good showing.
It's a term which is not thrown around lightly, but to say Don Wagstaff, is probably Apollo Bay's Greatest ever golfer would'nt be an understatement.
4 Time Club Champion, Pennant champion on several occasions, Don has the game & mental strength to grind his oppenents into the ground with supreme accurracy & low scoring.
His game is hard to match, due to being consistantly down the middle, a good short game to boot, he makes for one bloke you dont want to draw against.
Look for him to excel at Warnambool & Cobden where accuracy can be vital.
This Guy's got game!
A previous scratch marker, Ian joined the club 17 years ago and has been at the forefront of golf in Apollo Bay since.
He is a past club champion, past pennant champion more than once & has led Apollo Bay as our number 1 player on several occasions.
Ian more than most understands the technical side of the game, the fundamentals of his swing are what brings out the best in him, "keep it simple".
With his supberb knowledge around the course, sound swing and deadly putter, we look to Ian to steady the ship in our middle ranks.
He will most likely play solid 5-6 handicappers with similar experience.
5# Bob Craig:
With more golf under his belt than most, Bob is sure to make an impact on the pennant scene in 2012. Captained our reserves team in 2010 to championship glory with 1 player short, Bob has tasted success on more than 1 occasion.
He has a driving game most guy's dream about. If he gets the driver working he will be very hard to beat.
A regular podium sitter at most local tournaments, Bob is looking to get some early wins on the board for the team to reduce the pressure from A.Hill & G.Holman.
His 2012 has started tremendously & he is in superb form heading into pennant.
6# Toby Caddy: (No photo)
Promoted from Reserves Captain last year to make the top 7 golfers in Apollo Bay in 2012.
Toby Cady has got a serious distant game which is in turn helped by his desire to improve his all round game.
He continues to impress winning countless tournaments at home, Toby hits his irons like most guys hit thier drivers. He hits his drives as far as I take holidays.
If he gets the putter working on the quicker greens he will be a very handy number 6.
Could improve his position as the season progresses. He is our secret weapon.
7# Michael Dougan:
Most Guy's are'nt to familiar with the little Irishman from over the hills. Doog's is one of the nicest guy's you could meet & a great team man.
From Laver's Hill he makes visits to play in local tournaments as often as he can.
Michael is a single figure golfer with an exceptional game. If he could play more often he would be crazy good.
He has tasted success in winning the 2009 DIV 3 pennant flag with Apollo Bay.
Apollo Bay Open B Grade champion in 2010 and blew the course apart at Peterborough in 2007 with a -4 par (47 points).
Plays with the best Right to Left game Ive seen in our club, We look to Doog's to lead us off and try to secure an early win for the bay.
