Toyne Sets The New Low Gross

On a night when the winds were less tornado like than in previous weeks, Norm Toyne took advantage and recorded the new Individual Low Gross score. Toyne's 26 was one stroke better than the previous best by Steve Westlake.

The Closest to the Pin winners this week were Tim Donaldson on Hole #3 and Michael Shick on Hole #12. Jim Turner was the 50/50 winner.

Only four teams managed to sweep all the points in their matches as the Rolling Stones, Wedgers, Whizbangers and Latecomers all grabbed six points. The Southpaws and Bogies earned four points each while the Dubbers and CCCP each earned two points.

Cold Weather Leads To High Scores

I can't say for sure if the reason for so many of us posted higher than normal scores was just because we were that bad tonight or if the bone-chilling and breezy weather conditions were to blame. That's what I'm going with. But on the bright side, at least it was dry.

Some teams still managed to sneak away with some points despite the larger team totals. The Fat Shafts, Dubbers, KGB, Wedgers and Southpaws all took six points while the Fivesome managed to earn four points over the Bogies who grabbed the other two points.

The Closest to the Pin winners this week were Rick Dean on Hole #2 and Mark Kennedy on Hole #11. Lyle Williams won the 50/50 draw.

Lets hope for some warmer weather next week.

League Starts With A Bang

I don't think Nick VanGemeren could have asked for a better start to another year of Men's League play as he fired an Ace on the 132 yard 2nd hole. Nick used a wedge to put the cookie in the jar.

Steve Westlake had the hottest overall game of the night as he grabbed the early lead for Low Gross with an even par 27. The Southpaws set the low mark for Team Low Gross combining for an 88. The first Closest to the Pin winners of the season went to Jim Turner on Hole #1 and Andy Koetstra on Hole #10. The 50/50 was won by Dave Powell.

It was all or nothing when it came to the evenings matches. The Bogies, Southpaws, Wedgers, Fat Shafts, Dubbers and Latecomers swept all six points.

It's Official...Season To Start

In case you hadn't heard guys, we've been officially informed that the league will kick off on Wednesday April 11th.

League dues are still $30 and are to be paid that night. If you can't scrape together the dough then you can probably get a week's extension but please be prepared to pay if you can.

I was out again tonight with about 18 guys for a fun scramble and despite a cool breeze we had a good round in preparation for the start of the league. The greens are in great shape and were even kind enough to grant us a few birdies.

So pull the clubs out of storage and get ready to start swinging next Wednesday night...weather permitting of course.

See you then!
