MARK HOWARD-BROWNE - 100 GAMES MILESTONE
The 8th Nomads Sydney North Club member to achieve the 100 game milestone, Mark Howard-Browne (left), is congratulated by Captain Michael Hodge at Wakehurst Golf Club on 26 August 2018.
Mark started playing golf in the 1990’s and was a member at Umhlali Golf Club in Ballito. He was inducted in April 2008 with Des Boucher.
He has attended 9 Australian National tournaments missing only the 1st due to a frozen shoulder. Mark has also attended 5 South African Nomads National tournaments and advised that they are a test of fortitude and stamina.
Mark has served on our Committee from 2008 - just 2 months after being inducted and has predominantly controlled the "purse strings" as well as being the Membership Officer. He is still a part of the Charity Day Committee having joined it when Derrick Jones ran the Charity Day in 2008. He served as our Captain in 2014.
He is currently the Australian National President and he first joined NATEX as the National Treasurer in 2014.
In 2012, he was the Tournament Coordinator for the 4th Nationals at Magenta Shores, NSW Central Coast and has been prominently involved in the other 2 tournaments hosted by Norths at The Vintage in 2010 and Cypress Lakes in 2014.
In the 10 years from Jan 2008 since detailed stats were kept, his:
- Average score is 29.68
- Highest score – 39 points at Camden Lakeside in Nov 12
- Lowest score - 21 points at Mona Vale in Jan 16 and has never got a Crying Towel
- Starting handicap at Nomads was 20
- Average handicap 20.53
- Lowest handicap 16 (Dec 15) where he lost in the Knock Out final to Jo Landsberg
- Highest handicap 24 (Aug 16)
Well done Mark on your achievement.
