Fair Weather Golfers Be Warned

That might have been one of the most miserable opening nights of Men's League in recent memory as far as the weather was concerned. But the cold, rainy and windy conditions couldn't keep most of the golfers from striking out and getting the first round of the season in the books.

Paul Reid come up a little short with this putt.

Despite the adverse conditions some impressive rounds were posted including the early leader for Individual Low Gross, Nick VanGemeren who shot a 26 to set the bar high right off the bat. The Team Low Gross was turned in by the Southpaws with an 85.

Four teams swept the points up for grabs in their matches as the Fat Shafts, Southpaws, Rolling Stones and Whizbangers took six points each. The Latecomers came close with five points and the KGB earned four points. The Wedgers took two points and the single point went to CCCP.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Nick VanGemeren on hole #1 and Kim Defosse on hole #10.

Carl Troke leaves his birdie attempt short on 17.

Dave Reid was the first 50/50 winner of the season.

See you next Wednesday evening when we'll do it all again, and hopefully in some better weather conditions.

Updates Will Be Delayed

Unlike previous seasons the updates to the blog may take some time to show up and could possibly be a day or two. 

Due to my current work schedule I won't be able to stick around and wait for teams to fill out the points sheet. Alida has said she'd be kind enough to email me the results at her earliest convenience which I greatly appreciate. 

As soon as I can get in front of a proper computer I will post the updates and any photos from the evenings round. 

Thanks for your patience guys. Have a good season!

Let the 2015 Season Begin

I just got off the phone with Steve Powell and have been told the course is open and we are ready to get things going.

This coming Wednesday (April 16th) will be a Fun Night and not actual league play. It's a chance to come out and get the rust off your swing and see the familiar faces and perhaps some new ones as well. It will just be a fun round of golf.

The first official round of league play will take place on Wednesday April 22nd beginning at the usual 6pm shotgun start time. Points will start counting that night.

Lets all hope this warmer weather finally holds and we can put that long cold winter behind us. See you on the course.
