Something In The Air

It might have been the cooler temperatures or the pauses between swings to swat bugs but whatever it was, it was one of those nights for many where it just felt right. Several players, myself included, came close to getting aces while others were just hitting the ball well, Whatever the reason, lets hope it continues and everyone plays well down the stretch.

On this evening, all but one match was a sweep. Taking all six points up for grabs were the Fat Shafts, Rolling Stones, Southpaws, KGB and Whizbangers. The Bogies earned four points while the Wedgers took two.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Ryan Cuculuzzi on hole #4 and Benny Brock on hole #13. The 50/50 winner this week was Peter Hughes.

Sorry no photos or videos again this week. I was in the zone and forgot.

Stones Still Hot

Kyle Wilkinson tees off on the first hole.

The Rolling Stones turned in another impressive team effort tonight by matching last week's Team Low Gross score of 82. The Stones were led by Matt Couperus who posted a round of one under par 53 for the evening by shooting 26 & 27. Norm Toyne posted a nine hole score of 25 for the second week in a row falling just short of tying the Individual Low Gross set last week by Kyle Wilkinson.

Ryan Cuculuzzi makes his putt.

Ryan Cuculuzzi saved his best shot for his second last hole of the night and grabbed the Closest to the Pin prize on hole #8. Tim Donaldson also took the honours on hole #17. The 50/50 was won by Al Wilkinson.

Four teams swept their matches tonight as the Hackers, KGB, Southpaws and Wedgers took all 12 points up for grabs. The Rolling Stones earned 11 points, the Latecomers took 7 points with the Whizbangers getting 5 points and the Fat Shafts managed a single point.

I believe next week we're back to the usual 9 hole rounds as we're now officially into the second half of the season. See you then.

Don Muldoon gets some help from Dave Walker to figure out the scores.

Two Weeks Left

The bad news was we didn't quite get the round in before it rained. The good news is we did finish the round before the severe thunderstorms and tornado watches rolled into the area.

With only two weeks of regular season golf remaining there isn't a lot left to be decided but there is a battle happening for that final two spots in the "A" Flight. With only nine points separating third and sixth the next two weeks will be crucial for teams hoping to get into or remain in the top division. For the teams sitting from 7th place to 12th, your fate is already decided.

Grabbing all six points in their matches were the Southpaws, Wedgers and Rolling Stones. The Whizbangers took five while the Latecomers and KGB earned four points. Earning two points each were the Fat Shafts and Dubbers while the CCCP took a single point.

Sandy McLeod shot the low round for the night with an even par 27. For the third time in a month Benny Brock had his name drawn for the 50/50. The Closest to the Pin winners were Dave Walker on hole #7 and Ryan Cuculuzzi on hole #16.

That's More Like It!

After all the rain that fell in April and the resulting cancellation of last weeks round of golf, the arrival of May also brought much better golfing conditions as we returned to the course once again. I think we can all agree the warmer and dryer weather is a welcome sight.

Four teams swept their matches tonight as the Rolling Stones, Latecomers, Dubbers and KGB all earned six points. The Bogies and Wedgers took four points each while the Southpaws and Fivesome grabbed two points a piece.

Al Wilkinson had the low round of the night with a 28 but was one stroke shy of tying for the Individual Low Gross. The Closest to the Pin winners tonight were Ryan Cuculuzzi on hole #2 and Ian Rogers on hole #11. Symen Korver was this weeks 50/50 winner.

Points-a-plenty Tonight

The dry and muggy conditions continued tonight but there were a few raindrops to give us hope that the current drought we've been going through might see some relief. But it didn't happen while we were playing and that's always a good thing.

There points were spread around this evening as nine out of the 12 teams managed to increase their totals.

Only three teams managed to take all of the points up for grabs in their matches as the Fat Shafts, KGB and Southpaws each earned six points. The points by the Southpaws moves them past the century mark with 102pts. The CCCP and Dubbers grabbed five points and four points went to the Whizbangers. The Rolling Stones took two points while the Hackers and Bogies earned one point a piece.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Kevin Wadsworth on hole #6 while Ryan Cuculuzzi was tight on hole #15. Paul Scobie was this weeks 50/50 winner.
