Crunch Time

With only two more regular season weeks left after tonight's round, the opportunities to make a move for a playoff position are running out quickly.

The Southpaws made progress tonight by grabbing six points to slide past CCCP by one point and sit in fourth place and the last spot in the "A" flight. Only three points separate sixth place and fourth and the next two weeks will decide the "A" and "B" flight combatants.

Dave Pemberton strikes the ball on 18.

The Fivesome sit in ninth and are six points away from moving into the top eight. Meanwhile, the battle for first overall got a bit tighter as the Fat Shafts were handed six points by the absent Rolling Stones while the KGB took only four points to hold a three point cushion for first.

Taking six points tonight were the Southpaws, Dubbers, Whizbangers and Fat Shafts. The Fivesome and KGB earned four points while two points each went to CCCP and Wedgers.

The closest to the pin winners were Jim Conley on hole #7 and Rick Dean on hole #16. Randy Grills was the 50/50 winner this week.

On A Hot Summer Night

Boy oh boy did summer finally show up tonight. It was a hot, humid, sticky and buggy round for sure but it's nice to see more seasonal golfing conditions for a change.

The Fat Shafts took six points against the Wedgers to keep their slim one point league lead over the KGB who took all six points when the Rolling Stones failed to field a team. The Dubbers also took six points to move into fourth place.

Also taking six points tonight were the Whizbangers, Hackers and Bogies. Sandy McLeod had the low round of the night shooting a 2-over-par score of 29.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Eric Mofina for the second week in a row on hole #4 and Andy Koetstra on hole #13. Randy Grills was the 50/50 winner this week.

After clinching the regular season the last four years, the Southpaws will have to settle for second place as the Fat Shafts claimed their first league title.

It came down to the final night.
