No woodchops on this weekend… so no excuses! 😉

Come along and support our little local legends Hunter and Benny Argents School at their golf fundraiser day ⛳️

Whether you’re playing a round, dropping in for a feed, or just showing your support, every bit helps and means a lot to these young champions and their school.

Let’s get around them and show what this woodchopping community is all about 💪❤️

🎉 2026 is coming in HOT with fundraisers! 🎉
And we’re kicking things off in style…

⛳️ THE GOLF DAY IS FINALLY HERE ⛳️
After 9 months of hype (and group chat chaos), the golf day has officially left the group chat and entered real life.

📅 March 21st
Grab your mates, kids, aunties, uncles, and yes… even the grandparents 👵👴and join us for a 4-person Ambrose — all skill levels welcome!

Heard CMC is the same weekend? 👀
Skip it. It’ll be back next year… this only happens once 😏

🙋‍♀️ Not a golfer? No worries!
Swing by anyway — we’ve got you covered with a quick, easy lunch and good vibes.

More details coming soon… but trust us, you don’t want to miss this one! 🍔🍻🏌️‍♂️

A massive thank you goes to the Rotorua Axemens Club for having us this weekend. While the NZ North Island team showed to be more dominant on their home soil, we cannot thank them enough for inviting us over and looking after us the last 2 weekends. It is clubs and associations like theirs that are the driving force behind keeping the rivalry strong and the banter on point. 🪓 💪

See you all next year where the battle between the 2 clubs continue. 🪵
