Polo X Grounds Course, Mananui, Taumarunui 23 & 24 April
This is round 7 of the 2016 NZDG Tour and is an event not to be missed. The Lost Tribe will look after you exceeding well [in fact there is every chance you'll gain a kilo or two over the weekend.] Corynne's catering is something special and worth the entry fee before you even get to play golf. The course is easy to negotiate but very testing to play and always attracts a top field.

Here's some snaps from the 2014 event...
Welcome to King Country - No matter which direction you come from, you start to enjoy that feeling of some awesome New Zealand scenery an hour out from Taumarunui..
Discs in the Mist - Not a Gorilla, Prez Nigel Hailstone in putting mode at an early stage of proceedings.
Chain Focused - Wellington's Winston Rawiri is new to the tour but already addicted.
Queenstown Style - Nick and Brady watch Robin Lily drive #3.
DJ Play - Rotorua golfer Andy George has a crack at the tricky basket placement on #8.
Mossy Masoe - "Don't be low, don't be low" thinks Nigel Hailstone. Bugger! Too high!
God-like - Des putts from the shade as Andy soaks up some rays.
The Jackson Sullivan supporters club - Mum (still contemplating a disc golf come-back) and the Blue Healer.
Joyful Addiction - Jenny has a sweet addiction to this awesome sport.
Wild Life - Yep, not to be outdone by the Human Highligher, Sky Highway from Wellington played a full round in this onesy!
Trunk in Charge - Upper Hutt golfer Winston Rawiri managers his way around the tall timber.
Another Par - Jacko Sullivan slams his putt into the chains on 17 as a gum-booted Juan Unda looks on.
Just don't hit a tree - National Park's Des Cooper winds his way to the basket on #10, avoiding trees of all sorts of shapes includng one looking like De Haas' left hip.
Creeks and Groans - Bugger! Even too deep for the Safemates, Tim Mayson climbs out of the creek to the amusement of playing partners Pete Boyle and Coby Waller.
