COLLECTING SCORECARDS
Collecting golf scorecards is an interesting, enjoyable hobby which can be very time consuming. It can also be very expensive unless you choose the correct avenues to procure cards.
I gather most of my Australian scorecards by snail mail or, by actual visits to clubs, whilst traveling around the country. The bigger majority of my international cards I get by e-mailing the clubs or by trading with overseas collectors. To successfully accomplish this you need a large quantity of duplicate cards. So if you are surfing this site and, you have any scorecards in that golf bag, which you no longer need please contact me via e-mail at
raidr11@bigpond.net.au and, I will be happy to take them off your hands. I am quite happy to cover any postal charges incurred.

QUOTE of the WEEK.
" Yeah, after each of my downhill putts". - When asked if he had many uphill putts."
- Homero Blancas (1938-).
GOLF FACT.
A man with the fitting name Odd Martinussen scored what some consider the longest ace in history. It took slightly more than an hour. Martinussen was playing on a course that straddles between Sweden and Finland. Teeing up on a 126 yard par-3 in Sweden, he smacked the ball onto the green, which is in Finland, and straight into the cup for his hole in one. What made it officially one hour and eight seconds was that the ball was struck in one time zone and plopped into the hole in another time zone".
