Fat Shafts Regular Season Champs

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.

Lyle Williams launches his shot towards the 16th green.

The Fat Shafts held a slim one point lead heading into the final round and after both teams took all six points in their matches, the Fat Shafts finished the season with a total of 111 points to the Southpaws 110.

The Latecomers also took six points while the KGB and Dubbers each earned four points. The Hackers and Rolling Stones tied with three points each while the Fivesome and Wedgers grabbed two points apiece. Kyle Wilkinson wins the Indivdual Low Gross prize for the year with his impressive round of 24. The Rolling Stones earn the Team Low Gross with their round of 84.

The Whizbangers and Latecomers finished in a tie for 8th place, however the Whizbangers had more points in head to head play and win the tie breaker to earn the final spot in the "B" division for the playoffs.

The Closest to the Pin winners tonight were Kevin Wadsworth on hole #1 and Andy Koetstra on hole #10. The 50/50 winner was Randy Grills.

The Playoffs start next week with nine holes from the white tees the next two Wednesday nights. The final 18 holes from the blue tees will take place on Saturday September 10th.

Slim Lead for Fat Shafts

With only one week remaining in the regular season some of the final positions for the playoffs have yet to be decided and first overall will come down to the last week.

The Hackers still have a shot at slipping into the A division if they can pass the KGB next week. The Latecomers can tie the Whizbangers for the final spot in the B division which would result in a tie breaker based on their head to head play this season.

The Fat Shafts took six points this week while the Southpaws earned five points which allowed the Fat Shafts to take a one point lead for first overall and puts their fate in their own hands heading into the final week next Wednesday night.

Also taking six points this week were the Rolling Stones, KGB, Hackers and Bogies. The Wedgers earned a single point. Andy Koetstra shot the low round of the week with an even par 27.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Kyle Wilkinson on hole #9 and Barry Defosse on hole #18. The 50/50 winner was Mark Adams.

Hot and Sticky Round

The heatwave continues to grip the area and the drought conditions are quite unreal this year but despite the humidity, we're still enjoying zero nights of missed golf due to the weather.

Norm Toyne nearly aces number 9.

I can't help but think we'll pay for this eventually.

My apologies to the Hackers and Dubbers. Last week I switched their scores for some reason but this weeks posted standings should be correct. I almost made it the whole season without  messing up.

With only two weeks of regular season rounds left, the standings are quite interesting for some teams. The Fat Shafts took six points this week while the Southpaws grabbed five points which locks them in a tie for first place with 99 points each. The Rolling Stones faltered and are no longer capable of challenging for the top spot. The KGB took six points and currently have the final spot in the "A" division but the Dubbers and Hackers could still make a move for that spot. The Whizbangers took six points to move into a "B" division spot but the Latecomers can still fight them for that position with two weeks to play.

The Hackers and Bogies took six points tonight while the Dubbers earned one point.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Andy Koetstra on hole #8 and Benny Brock on hole #17. The 50/50 winner was Rick Stuckless.

To those members taking part in the Club Championships this weekend, best of luck.

Battles Abound

There's nothing like some good competition to make things interesting as the season nears its completion and there's still plenty to be decided.

The Fat Shafts have moved to within one point of the Southpaws for first place overall after taking six points from the Hackers tonight. The Rolling Stones grabbed all six points in their match with the Southpaws to remain solidly in third place and are still within striking distance of the top spot.

The final position in the "A" flight is still up for grabs as the KGB and Hackers are tied with 65 points each. The Dubbers are also close with 61 points.

Meanwhile it could come down to the wire for the final position in the "B" flight as the Latecomers and Whizbangers are deadlocked for eighth place.

The Bogies, Whizbangers and Wedgers also grabbed six points in their matches tonight while the Dubbers took four and the Latecomers earned two points.

Kyle Wilkinson continued his strong play posting the low score of the night with a round of even par 27. Congrats to Ian MacDonald on a personal best as he shot a 29 for his lowest nine hole total ever on the course.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Rick Dean on hole #7 and Kim Defosse on hole #16. Paul Reid was the 50/50 winner this week.

Down The Stretch We Come

The summer is flying by as we will soon head into August. That means we'll be down to the last weeks of regular season play before the Playoffs begin again and time is running out to earn the points needed to secure your place in each flight.

While the top three teams appear to have a lock on their "A" Flight positions, the KGB, Dubbers and Hackers can still battle it out for the last spot.

Rob Campbell takes aim at hole #16.

The Whizbangers also have time to move from their current "C" Flight position into the "B" Flight with some points down the home stretch.

The top three teams all swept their matches tonight with the Southpaws, Fat Shafts and Rolling Stones taking six points each. The Dubbers moved into a tie for fifth with the Hackers by taking five points along with the Latecomers. The Bogies earned four points while the Hackers took two points. Single points went to the Whizbangers and Fivesome.

Nick Vangemeren had the low round of the night shooting even par 27. The low team scores were shot by the Southpaws and Fat Shafts with 93 each. Vangemeren also took the Closet to the Pin prize on hole #6 while Jerry Powell had a terrific shot on hole #15. Tim Donaldson was this weeks 50/50 winner.

Can't Complain About The Weather

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.

Stones Grab Low Gross

It was another muggy night for golf but this time the scores were much better all around than the previous week.

The Rolling Stones broke a three way tie for the Team Low Gross by turning in a low round of 84 to set the new mark to be reached.

There were several under 30 rounds posted with Andy Koetstra scoring lowest with a round of 25 which left him one shy of matching Kyle Wilkinson's league leading Individual low round of 24.

Four teams, the Rolling Stones, Southpaws, Fat Shafts and Whizbangers, took all six points up for grabs in their rounds. The Fivesome and Dubbers each took four points while the Hackers and CCCP left with a pair of points.

The Closest to the Pin prizes were won by Kevin Wadsworth on hole #4 while Len Bosma put his tee shot close on hole #13. This weeks 50/50 winner was Neil Nelson.

Toasty Night For Golf

On what might have been the hottest night of golf this season, the scores were not quite as on fire as the weather.

Don Muldoon tries to recover on hole #9.

Kyle Wilkinson continued his impressive play this season by posting a 25 which was by far the best round of the night .

We returned to normal points tonight which was fortunate for some teams. The first place Southpaws stumbled slightly allowing the Fat Shafts to move within five points of the lead. The Rolling Stones leapfrogged the KGB to sit in third by one point. The CCCP now have some company in the final spot after moving into a tie with the Fivesome.

The Fat Shafts, Rolling Stones and Bogies all swept their matches tonight to earn six points.

Pre-round chit chat at the clubhouse.

The Hackers, Dubbers and Whizbangers each earned four points while the Southpaws, KGB and CCCP took two points a piece.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Andy Koetstra on hole #3 (his third in five weeks) and Jim Turner on hole #12. Denis Schick was the 50/50 winner this week.
