Forest Pines Singles 2025

Forest Pines Singles  Recap: A Day of Golfing Excellence at Forest Pines

 A Fantastic Day on the Course

What a day it has been at the wonderful Forest Pines Golf Resort, as we wrapped up another incredible Golf Pairs event! From the moment our first groups teed off to the final putt on the 18th, we saw some truly outstanding golf, great camaraderie, and plenty of memorable moments.

 Forest Pines always provides a difficult challenge to for our golfers. The daunting Pine trees lining both sides of the fairways really narrow the target from the tee shot and puts the nerves on test for every shot. Some sneaky hidden ditches and well placed ponds are always lurking to catch any stray golf shot. Return golfers playing the course for a second time or more, definitely have the upper hand on the newcomers! The greens were visually very pleasing, and player slower pace wise to allow for a fair experience given the undulations in them. We are off to buy shares in Jet2 based on how many people we saw playing form the “beach” today, mind you its very understandable as the bunkers play a huge part of the challenge when playing Forest Pines.

 Tournament Highlights

  • Winning Player Handicap : Congratulations to Ben Stephens who took home the top spot with an impressive 39pts. A 4 under gross back 9 saw Ben shoot level par off 3 hcp. Incredible golf! HE WON GROSS AS WELL
  • Winning Player Gross : Congratulations to Sam Waite who took home the Best Gross score with an impressive 76 / 3 over par score
  • Nearest the Pin: Mark Finney hit a beauty into 5 foot on the par 3 8th, still not close enough to secure the 2 though!
  • Longest Drive Men: Leo Vincent unleased a monster down the 5th, this thing must have had wheels on it when it landed. #power!
  • Longest Drive Women: June Mcfarlane proved to strong for the rest of the ladies, with this beauty down the 5th, a well deserved winning shot!

 The Course & The Atmosphere

We couldn’t have asked for a better venue than Forest PInes, with its beautifully carved, meandering course through the impressive Pines, it really does providing the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable day of golf.

 A huge thank you to Forest Pines and their staff for their hospitality and seamless organisation, making sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish.
