Draw4Four Tour I got into bowling last year after an unexpected shoulder injury and I'm loving it. Welcome to my Draw4four Tour.
πŸ™‚

I'd like to play on as many new greens as possible and maybe even eventually match the 353 golf courses I have played, this is my story.

#48, Lumsden BC, SOU

Lumsden is a cute little crossroads town in Northern Southland and it is home to a beautiful and secluded bowling green, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

This place is typical of so many country greens across NZ with a membership that, going by the outstanding general presentation of the place, obviously take a lot of pride in their club

Singing birds and scented flowers are the order of the day as you soak up this little part of paradise.

#47, Tapanui BC, OTA

I'm off work with a broken left wrist at the moment, so after making my season debut at Roxburgh I decided to go a scenic route home and play a couple of new greens.
πŸš—
Tapanui sits in the shadow of Blue Mountain and it's superb green is a beautiful peaceful spot to chill out and play with it's Mountain backdrop.
⛰️
The green itself is very smooth although it took me a while to get used to the wide / narrow sides, as can often be the case.

#46, Porangahau BC

So I initially turned up here to play golf but after I'd finished I couldn't resist throwing a few down on the gorgeous synthetic green here.

A fabulous joint sports facility incorporates all the local clubs and the views are outstanding.

#45, Naseby BC

Firstly a happy new year to you all, I hope you are all well and had a fantastic break from reality!!

One of the cool things about getting around new greens is some of the 'local legends' you meet along the way who keep our game ticking over and today was no exception chatting with 'Buzz', who proudly keeps this place looking beautiful.

Naseby was formed in 1911 so has been around for a long time and it's tranquil and peaceful setting is well in line with it's Central Otago location.

Another wonderful NZ country bowling club.

#44 Waipiata BC

This is a truly fabulous place to bowl and my photo really doesn't do it any justice whatsoever.

Waipiata is a remote township set in one of the more spectacular areas of the country and is famed for its connections with the Otago Central Rail Trail and the fantastic, 'World famous in Otago' Waipiata Country Hotel.

The Bowling green itself is deafeningly peaceful, I really could have stayed there all day. Like all of the Central Otago greens it is sneaky quick, helped no doubt by the wonderful dry climate we enjoy down here.

A good mornings entertainment, I'm heading to said hotel, its five o'clock somewhere!!!

#43 Middlemarch BC

Middlemarch is one of those wonderful sleepy spots that is simply a pleasure to visit, best known for being the eastern terminus of the Otago Central Rail Trail it really is a place of outstanding beauty. The wind is picking up so I may even get a glance of the famous 'Taieri Pet' cloud formation at some stage.

The bowling club here is pretty cool too, situated next to the war memorial, it is a stunning place to play or even just sit, chill and spare a few moments for those who made the ultimate sacrifice so we can enjoy the freedoms we have today.

#42 Maheno BC

A lovely morning to stop for a quick roll up on my way through to Middlemarch.

My only quandary was what to wear until I settled on this little white number that comes out from time to time!

Maheno is the type of country setting that I enjoy playing at, the only problem was that I've been playing on some pretty slick greens for the past week, so it took me a while to adjust and get the bowl all the way to the jack.

Good fun.

#41 Geraldine BC

Like most things in Geraldine, the bowling club here is extremely pretty.

Two greens, one Artificial and one Natural on the domain, overlooked by an impressive two tier clubhouse.

It was a stunning afternoon afterwards to enjoy some 'Bowling Juice' with the locals and watch a couple of Club Championship matches.

#40 Riccarton Racecourse BC

A blustery but fine evening in Christchurch before the rain arrives later on left me with an evening to have a quick roll up at the very pretty Riccarton Racecourse BC.

Two greens here, one Artificial and the other a very swift and well presented Natural green surrounded by manicured flowers and gardens, capped off with a beautiful modern glass gable fronted clubhouse.

Thanks for the tip Colin B, at this place it is easy to forget that you are in the suburbs of one of NZ's major cities, but a very appropriate venue for me to play during Canterbury Cup week.
