Nobody can complain that we haven't had good weather on Wednesday nights this season. Tonight was another warm one but luckily there was some relief with a nice breeze.
Overall the rounds seemed to be a bit on the high side but Kyle Wilkinson still managed to turn in an even par round of 27 for low score of the night.
Four of the six matches were clean sweeps as the Rolling Stones, Hackers, CCCP and Southpaws took all six points. The Fat Shafts and KGB each grabbed four points while two points went to the Dubbers and Bogies.
The Closest to the Pin winners were Peter Hughes on hole #5 and Paul Reid on hole #14. The 50/50 winner was Denis Schick.

Sixes Were Wild
Sorry I'm a little late with the update guys. I'm busy busy busy these days. But better late than never.
It was a beautiful night for golf this week. It was so nice in fact that I think every mosquito in Wooler decided to feast on the course like seniors at an early bird special buffet in Florida. I'm still scratching and hearing the buzzing in my ears.
In between swatting and swearing we were able to get in our round and on this night sixes were wild as every match was swept. I think that might be a first this season. Taking all six points up for grabs were the Fat Shafts, Rolling Stones, Wedgers, Southpaws, Hackers and Latecomers.
The Closest to the Pin winners were Mark Kennedy on hole #3 and Matt Couperus on hole #12. The 50/50 winner was Art Mansfield.

Everyone's On The Board
What a difference a week makes.
The Southpaws who had yet to give up a single point this season finally cracked as the KGB were up to the challenge grabbing four points from the lefties.
At the same time, the previously pointless Hackers changed that this week as well by turning in an impressive round.
Only three teams this week swept all the points in their matches as the Hackers, Fivesome and Fat Shafts earned six points each. The KGB, Rolling Stones and Whizbangers each earned four points while the Southpaws and Dubbers took two points each. The low team gross for the night was 92, shot by the Rolling Stones. Paul Dicrescenzo and Al Wilkinson turned in the lowest rounds of the night as they both shot one over par 28.
The Closest to the Pin winners this week were Jerry Powell on hole #5 and Andy Koetstra on hole #14. The 50/50 winner was Art Mansfield.

Let The Playoffs Begin
It was a sparse group of golfers tonight as many failed to show up for one reason or another but despite the low numbers, the regular season came to an end and now we move to playoff mode.
On this night the final points of the evening were handed out with the KGB, Wedgers, Southpaws, Rolling Stones and Latecomers all taking six points. The Bogies earned four while the CCCP grabbed two points.
Four golfers tied for the low round of the night with Dave Walker, Colin McDonald, Nick Vangemeren and Steve Westlake all shooting a one over par 28. Vangemeren also took home the evenings 50/50 prize. The Closest to the Pin winners were Art Mansfield on hole #7 and Dave Powell on hole #16.
The playoffs will begin next Wednesday night and the division groupings are listed below based on where your team finished during the season. The next two Wednesday's will be nine hole rounds played from the White Tees. The final 18 hole round will be played from the Blue Tees on Saturday September 6th beginning at 3pm followed by the wrap up party and steak BBQ. Please note that only four golfers can play with 3 counting on the Wednesday night rounds but on the Saturday 18 hole final day, all golfers on each team can play with the top three scores counting.
Good Luck and hope to see everyone out.

And Then There Were Two
The skies looked threatening prior to tonight's round but foul weather passed us by luckily.

| Bench in memory of Don Kovanen. |
Four teams swept all six points up for grabs with the Hackers, Southpaws, Wedgers and CCCP winning their matches. The Whizbangers and Fivesome came close to sweeping by taking five points. The Dubbers and Latecomers each earned single points.
Lyle Williams was this week's 50/50 winner while Steve Westlake and Andy Koetstra grabbed the Closest to the Pin prizes on holes #5 and #14.
It was also nice to see the new bench sitting by hole #15 in memory of the late Don Kovanen of the Bogies who passed away last year. I know we'll all pause and think of Don when we pass by each round.
See you next week.

Is This July?
I can't believe I'm saying this but where's the heat? Two weeks in a row we've had ideal clear and cool conditions for golfing. The typical sweltering heat of summer is nowhere to be found here. But of course that can change so we'll enjoy these conditions while we can.
The low scores of the night were impressive but not good enough to challenge for the Individual Low Gross. Kyle Wilkinson and Nick Vangemeren tied for the low scores of the night with even par 27. I don't know who had the high score for the evening but there's a good chance Art Mansfield of the Fat Shafts came close by shooting a 46. Good job Art!
In the matches for the evening, the Southpaws, Fat Shafts, Rolling Stones and Dubbers swept all six points up for grabs. The Wedgers earned five points, the CCCP four, Whizbangers two and a single point went to the Bogies.
The Closest to the Pin winners were Nick Vangemeren on hole #2 and Tom Christmann on hole #11. The 50/50 winner this week was Marty MacDonald.
Below you'll find a few more short videos of the nights action to enjoy and perhaps chuckle at. Please note there might be the odd bit of foul language so if that offends you, please skip them. I'm too lazy to edit them and bleep stuff out.
