Again this week there seemed to be some very slow play.  Please be on the tee box ahead of your tee time and play ready golf on the course.  Also, we have a rule of double par plus one and pick up the ball. 

“Article XVI.  Pickup Rule:  Once a player has recorded a score on a hole twice par plus one, they must stop playing that hole and pick up their ball.  On a par 3 the most strokes allowed are seven (7), on a par 4 the number is nine (9), and on a par 5 no more than eleven (11).  The recorded score will be either the 7, 9, or 11 as appropriate.  The player's opponent is required to finish the hole unless they also reach the pickup score.  Any player who picks up before holing out cannot win a match point for that hole, regardless of handicap strokes.  If opponent also picks up on the hole, the match point will be split.  It is therefore in the best interest of a player to attempt to finish the hole.  This rule has no effect on any medal contest or recorded score for handicap purposes.  The rule was instituted to improve play and speed up the total game.”

 

This past week we had 10 subs:   Kelly Johnson (Team Bachmann), Mike Schwarberg (Team Kientz), Dave Vincent (Team Keintz), Carol Goldstone (Team Freeman), Brad Ferguson (Team Buescher), Dave Martin (Team Flynn), Shari Anderson (Team Harms), and Vinny Consola (Team Kiffmeyer).  And Restricted Subs Jonathan Behrens (Team Freeman), Ken Kostas (Team Kiffmeyer).  Thanks for being there.
