It was a lovely evening for golf, eh! Almost didn’t matter that those of us on the back teed off about a half hour late and took over 2.5 hours to finish…almost didn’t matter…
A heroic group (I’m crediting the Parsons/Grove/Nau/Kenville grouping) started a movement on the back – waving guys up, once on the green, on #14. When that tee is at about the 270 yard mark, I think this is a great play – let’s keep it rolling next week if we’re up again, many of us thought it helped a lot in my informal poll of my group.
Big divisional rivalry week. Two teams got their first win – nice work I Like Big Putts (this week’s high scorers with 45.5) and Zed Heads, it’s a long season so keep digging.
Foreplay (178 total points) and Drive 4 Show (177) have yet to lose and remain atop their divisions and are the top point-getters. Domination nation, boys, way to get them points.
Fairway 2 Heaven got buzzsawed by a couple Young Gunz who won 9.5 points in their matches (May and Hendrikson) and the squad crept to within 5 points of the division lead.
WTF lost this week (37 points) but holds a 1 point lead over Range Balls, who won (44 points), in the GVC East.
Team Hack Attack went from 4th to 2nd in their tough GVC West division, but Drive 4 Show holds a solid lead after 4 weeks.
And the Loopers…oh those Loopers in their terrific team jerseys – wait, shirts! – creep up from the bottom of the BCC South and into 2nd place behind Foreplay. Don’t wash those shirts, boys, they’re good luck! They got you 43 points!
2-Man Low Net (even weeks):
- 1st: Mark Lauffenburger & Mark Steinhauser – 68 (front) $17.50 each
- 2nd: Chris Wrecza & Ross Johnson – 69 (back) $10 each
- 3rd: 5 teams (FIVE) tied with 70 – that would be $1.50 each and would also be dumb. A scorecard playoff doesn’t work because of the different nines…so I did an old fashioned drawing from an actual hat here in my hotel in Fergus Falls. Steve Hartmann & Richard Benson win $7.50 each.
Individual Low Gross:
- Nick Hendrikson wins the $10 for a 35 on the back nine, just beating out Howie Hoffman (36) and Josh Mueller (37)
