Man’s Day Out

The Hastings Golf Club held its inaugural Man’s Day Out, 11th June.  A day dedicated to the men of Hawke’s Bay.

132 men teed off in this Ambrose tournament held on a 20 degree sunny Hawke’s Bay winter’s day.  With over $8,000 of prizes up for grabs the day also included whiskey and craft beer tastings and a lot of fun along the way.

The team at Bunkers Café provided a sensational roast dinner prior to the field enjoying the rugby live on the six screens in the clubhouse!

“This tournament was sold out with a waiting list three weeks prior to the event”, says Brett Allan head professional at Hastings Golf Club.  “We’re always trying to create new and fun events to the community and it was pleasing to have a lot of visitors participate in the tournament.  It shows how the face of golf is evolving in terms of what golfers want.  Hastings Golf Club has embraced a more forward thinking progressive outlook to golf and how it is run.  This day was the first in Hawke’s Bay and will definitely be on the annual calendar now.” 

The winning team of Ben Sail, Gavin Beaver, Campbell Tacon & Kris Simmonds came in with a nett score of 58.2.
