This is a golf competition with a difference. Your regular hole on a manicured green was absent. In its place was a kind of raft, anchored off the shore in Lake Taupo containing a three apertures one a “normal” size golf hole, the others consisting of sandy based hollows, one twelve inches in diameter, the other twenty one inches. Anyone who can drive their ball into the small hole wins $5000, the others smaller prizes.

I treated Dave to five dollars worth and he certainly came close with several balls. He says he’ll have another shot at it tomorrow and I’m hoping he’ll be able to treat me to dinner afterwards.

UPDATE on 23rd November
Dave did indeed have another five dollars' worth, coming close each time, but extremely close with one ball. Unfortunately I was left with the bill for the Thai meal this evening, so no luck for me! Ah well, it was very tasty.
