Arthur (Daley) Brown
Every club has an entrepreneur -
ours is Arthur Daley-Brown. But he's pretty mad at the
moment "What do you mean they're going to change
the 2nd hole, we can't be having that, maybe we need
to take out a contract? Terry!......"
Under the guise of playing golf,
Arthur is often out on the course sizing out potential
recruits for his covert operation; "Brown Water".
Arthur (two bags) Brown
likes to take an extra club holder in case he gets
a hole in one.

"There is no beating the second hole
at Akarana, except maybe the nineteenth where you can catch
up with all your fellow golf buddies over a drinkie or two."
"Don't be fooled by the short length
of this hole," says Brownie, "its got more bite
than a crocodile with a new set of dentures! You see us smart
old buggars have got it sussed. Don't do the big Fabio 'I'll
drive the green' thing, do what the intelligent golfer does
and play the easy shot down the middle. Doesn't need to be
far, on the fairway will do. Somewhere near the bottom of
the gully is good, you know exactly how far to the green and
you're hitting of the flat, not the side of a hill."
Sounds like good advice from a man who's been around the course
a few times now.
The Pitman Master Plan has some
major changes planned for the second - here is an
artist's impression of the future view from the tee. |

The first hill climb of the day has everyone wondering
'Will this be the day I shoot a PB'. |
