Cheez finally joined Bretwood as a member after Mrs Cheez released him from servitude after he completed her "honey do list" of items to prepare his house for sale. But missed several Pot Games because he was too exhausted get up in the morning.
Mad Dog in semi retirement (not sure you can call it retirement when you work less than 20 hrs a week) finds lots of time to practice while he isn't watering his plants. His finely tuned "flick at the bottom" swing produced scores that Bear could not match. So their dollar a hole match has become rather one sided to the point that Mad Dog was able to invest in several shares of blue chip stocks. Bear's only hope is for Mad Dog's annual late swoon when he pulls out his playbook of ailments to excuse his bad play.
Billy D has become so consistent with his scoring (82 every round) using his cut swing that Pot Gamers don't refer to par anymore they talk about their score over/under Billy's Ds. He and Green Mountain Gretchen are still an item although he has yet to bring her out to the deck.
Tractorman has been up to his old tricks of setting pins on the north course in diabolical places that repel every putt attempt. Some things never change as he still hates to play the south course.
Donny Roy made a hole-in-one a few weeks ago which lead to rumors on the deck whether or not he was in the pool. It turns out he never paid for any of the 4 pools still open, so over $1300 is still available to some lucky paid up Pot Gamer.
House cries every week that he wants to go to the white tees now that he turned 70. His pleas fall on deaf ears the minute he yank hooks his tee ball 275 yards off the first tee. Playing the whites won't help his wedges and "prayer" stroke only practice will.
Jay Esch came back from Florida with a handicap so inflated that even Otis wouldn't have dared to use it. Mad Dog immediately found a way for him to always end up on his team as a D man. His handicap has since plummeted but not before filling his pockets with wads of Pot money.
When Deacon is not doing face plants out of his bed or dispatching poor Barbara to DD's for his coffee at 4:30am, he is quietly making plans to hold his annual Invitational with the help of Joey M. But between Deacon's purged Pot Gamers list and Joey M's narrow pool of people he can stand, it will be tough to fill a full field.
Birdie doesn't seem himself lately. He has been wearing collared shirts and has been showing up at the first tee 3 minutes early instead of 5 minutes late. He was one of the first Pot Gamers to get to play with Little BB and wasted no time in initiating him into the Pot Game way when he filled the air with dozens of f-bombs when his stinger driver went awry.
Fireman has limited playing time now that he is #2 at KFD. He has been sharping up his short game by schooling Bear on the chipping green before each round. His drives are straightening out and his scores are headed in the downward direction. While on call if there is a second alarm he is mandated to head to the station, but surprisingly since the spring and warm weather there hasn't been a second alarm fire on a Wednesday, Saturday or Sunday.Pudge got a taste of what it means to work in Corporate America, when his former employer which rhymes with Pricks, decided the initials next to his name PGA made him expendable. The most disappointed person was Billy D because he didn't get to return his newest driver for credit. Ginger has decided to help out her boyfriend by recruiting duffers for lessons. Pudge lesson $100 for half hour, Pudge lesson with Ginger autographed bikini poster $200.
To say that Chimney can curve a golf ball would be understatement. To fit his drives on to some fairways he has to start his ball well over the river which is why his golf balls have begun asking for life jackets before they are launched. His rama and jama style putting is still going strong as the dents in the back of the cups can attest.
Chris From The Crotch has been a popular addition to the Pot Game with his dry sense of humor and robot like straight drives. He was recruited by Jerry Maguire. He also shares the same heritage as Rama Yama, although he hasn't let loose with "Macaroni & Cheese" when he hits a bad shot like Rama does.
Dr Dave's fairway woods are second to none towering with lots of carry, but his putting is holding him back from the winning ways of last summer. Looks like the Pot Game law of averages has taken its toll on another victim.
