Quota Obsession

The mid week Pot Game has a quota obsession lately.  The beauty of the Pot Game has always been it plays gross best balls only and never involves handicaps, until this year.  So when an even number of players 12 showed up for today's Wednesday Pot Game, it was decided we should play quota using the 39 point system.  The question has to be asked..Why?

Captain Walt's team of Little Bow Pete and House jumped out to a huge lead with a frontside of +4.5 which was 4 points clear of Cheez's team of Birdie and Skooger.  But like most Pot Games the team that has the big lead never duplicates it on the back nine and today was no exception.  As Team Walt struggled to -7.5, Bear's team of Billy D and Cabot roared out of third place and won the back with +.5 and were able to tie Walt's team for the total with -3.  Although Bear had three birdies he still couldn't match his B player Billy D who had four.

Low scores of the day were turned in by Little Bow Pete 73, Bear 74, Skooger and Cheez 78.  Six players broke 80.  The breaking news of the day was Bear finally awoke from his deep funk of bad play to grab $11 from Mad Dog who finally stubbed his toe with a bad round.  So YTD Mad Dog up $30.

Congrats to the Pot Games own Skrocki who played his way into the Club Championship finals today with a match play win over David Lanier.  Old guy playing gold tees equals well done...

Rumor has it Skooger recently left the deck for the parking lot even though he knew popcorn had been ordered. What....How is that possible?
