Warrnambool's Sam McCosh, Trent Anderson and twins Keegan and Dillon Byrne (formerly Warrnambool) will be at the course from the crack of dawn until they complete 72 holes.
It's all for a good cause.
The long-time friends - going under the name Presidents Cup Reserves - are testing their skill, strength and stamina to raise money for the Council Cancer's research, prevention and support services.

The Longest Day is a fundraising challenge in which participants undertake four rounds of golf (72 holes).
McCosh said his group won't use golf buggies.
"We're a group of guys in our late 20s and early 30s and we're hoping to be fit enough to walk around the 30 kilometres or so," he said.
"We're going be tired by the end of it but we're good mates and we're going to really enjoy it."
Monday, December 16 is the official day for the challenge but teams can choose any day in December to take on the golf marathon.
Presidents Cup Reserves has already raised more than $2000.
It won't be the first south-west team to take on the challenge as the Hamilton Golf Crew completed it on Sunday.
Daniel Battista and Terry Dunn started at 5.45am at Hamilton Golf Club and finished at 7pm.
The pair has raised $2500.
"I just thought it's such a prolific illness, in Australia especially," Battista said of their motivation.
"And it's golf, I love golf, so I was going to help."
