Founded in 1950, Pittwater Golf Club is a private golf course located at Midway Point in southern Tasmania. The course overlooks the internationally recognised Orielton Lagoon RAMSAR wetlands, and is fully irrigated tee to green. Our clubroom and bar facilities are operated by Club members on competition days. The course and facilities are also available for corporate days year round. We welcome members of affiliated clubs to our course for social golf and during some club competitions.
π΄ Course update, please read:As you’d be fully aware, the course has received significant rainfall recently – but will reopen from Saturday morning for play as normal (subject to current weather forecasting of course).There has also been serious consideration as to whether ride-on carts (2, 3 and 4-wheeled) should be banned for the time being in order to protect the course from unnecessary damage. However, it has been decided to continue to allow ride-on carts from Saturday – albeit under the strict proviso that all ride-on cart users are required to completely avoid all closely-mown fairways and obvious wet areas – and instead remain at all times in the second cut or rough throughout the course (while avoiding wherever possible the wheel tracks of earlier carts). This includes a total ban on the crossing of any closely-mown fairway – cart users will need to walk across the fairway if their ball is on the other side (take the sand bucket with you!!) – and includes taking carts around the back of all greens.Cart users could also consider sharing 2-seater carts – or walking the front 9 and carting the back 9 to minimise damage. Let’s consider others and take ownership of your course!Beware – if any ride-on cart user takes it upon themselves to ignore the above requirements, there will be no hesitation whatsoever in banning ride-on carts "across the board" until the course dries significantly. Please do not be that one member who ruins it for all other cart users.RegardsGreens & Course Improvements/Match & Handicap Sub-Committees … See MoreSee Less
π΄ Course Update, please readThe rains have arrived, and PGC at the moment is unplayable.With more rain forecasted over the coming days we have no alternative other than to CLOSE the course until Friday (19/7) inclusive . This includes competitions and social golf; practice range and nets are available for use.We will provide a further update on Thurs/Fri advising whether we will be playing at the weekend. We will look at the fixture and reschedule where possible.Also a reminder for when the course reopens: Luke and the team have got hoops and white paint in parts of the course where itβs easily recognisable that the area is wet/damp, but there are still some places throughout the course which need avoiding.Our preference is for all motorised carts to ONLY travel through the rough areas of the course and to walk to your ball if itβs on the fairway.RegardsMatch and Handicap/Course and Improvements Committees … See MoreSee Less

π΄ Course Closed 21/6/2024 and Temporary Local Rule π΄The rain continues to fall at PGC, hopefully there will be a break in the weather later today allowing for the weekend to go ahead. For today, the course remains closed.Until further notice, the revised temporary local rule is as below:Throughout the βgeneral areaβ as defined under Rule 2.2 (which specifically excludes the teeing area of the hole being played, all bunkers, all penalty areas and the putting green of the hole being played), a player may mark, lift, clean and replace the ball on its original spot.Noting Rule 15.1a (and so to avoid an automatic one stroke penalty), it is strongly recommended the ball be replaced before any attempt to remove adjacent loose impediments. If the ball is then moved whilst removing a loose impediment, the ball must be replaced on its original spot as per Rule 15.1b under a one stroke penalty. … See MoreSee Less

π REYNOLDS TROPHY RESULTS πIn what was a near-freezing morning at Pittwater Golf Club, our two Reynolds Trophy finalists battled it out to find this yearβs victor. Stephen Long, a battle-hardened match play veteran and 2009 Reynolds Trophy winner, faced Shane Cooke, a relative newcomer to the Reynolds but a fierce competitor in his own right, found great competition in one another, battling it out throughout the morning as they tussled hole wins in a close match.By the start of the 16th hole, Shane would find himself two up but found trouble on the tee shot which proved difficult to overcome. A masterful regulation birdie (albeit with some luck on the approach) from Stephen would tighten the margin to one hole with two to play.One down with two holes to play, Stephen found himself in trouble on the 17th as his delicate chip from the right of the green hit the downslope of the fringe sending his ball into the back left bunker, while Shane settled his chip from the front of the green to 6ft left of the hole. Shane would close out from here to emerge victorious with a 2/1 win.Congratulations to Shane and hard luck to Stephen in what was a great game to spectate. … See MoreSee Less
