Weekend Roundup On Thursday

Saturday on the North course 16 players showed up despite the cool temperatures and the threat of showers.  Even the Commish with poor circulation in his fingers made an appearance.   It was one of the most talented groups as well.

Team #1 Captained by Triple N with Little Bow Pete, 40 and Chimney appeared to be ones to beat, until everyone got a look at Team #2.  Which was Captained by Mini with Tractorman, Dougie and Billy M, wow what a powerhouse.  Then along comes team #3 Captained by Pudge with Bear playing out of the B slot, Deacon and Skooger, pretty good team as well.  But the real dream team emerged at the end when Captain Mad Dog called out his team of Sandy, Birdie and Commish. Yikes, how could they miss winning it all.

Well when the smoke cleared, Pudge's team won the front with a 3BB score of even par and followed it up with +2 on the back to win 2.5 sides of the pot.  Mad Dog's team with a furious closing score of -3 on the 17th hole, also shot +2 on the back to get a pocketful of change with a half point.

There were 6 skins worth $13 a piece (Pudge 2, Mini 1, Deacon 1, Triple N 1 and Sandy (eagle 17) 1).  Low scores of the day Bear 72, Mini 73, Pudge 76, Sandy 78 and 40 78.  Bear pocketed $7 from Mad Dog making their YTD total in favor of Mad Dog by $32.

Sunday had a real nip in the air as the temperatures dipped into the low 40s at tee off.  A few weenies (Commish) stayed away but 9 did show up to play the South course.  All the teams seemed to be evenly matched and on the front that was the case as only one stroke separated all the teams.  Team #2 Mini, TJ and Deacon shot +4 to tie Team #3 Sandy, Skrocki and Dougie.  Team#1 Bear, 40 and Rama were left out in the cold at +5.  Mini's team took command on the back to shoot -2 (2BB) and take 2.5 sides.

There were 5 skins worth $9 a piece (Sandy 1, Mini 2 and Skrocki 2).  Low scores were Mini 72, 40 76, Sandy 76, Bear 77 and TJ 77.  In all 6 player broke 80, 2 were in the 80s and one poor soul shot in the 90s (although he kept the score so not sure if it was accurate or not).
