IRS Wednesday Golf League Newsletter

Week 6 – June 3, 2015

The 1st position round is complete and the competition has really heated up. 

A Division still has Team Buescher in the lead and taking down defending champs Team Anderson with Team Zachritz moving up to second place.  Team Kiffmeyer suffered another loss and is sitting comfortable in the bottom of the division and preparing themselves for the fork.

B Division has Team Donlin sitting comfortable in the lead with a big win over Team Bramlage.  Team Pfeiffer moved to second place even after taking a loss to Team Freeman.

C Division has Team Leirey still in the lead in the Division and League with Team Patmann still sitting in second place.  Team Harms moved to last place as Team Schumacher (forked) finally moved out of the bottom.

D Division had Team Flynn suffer a big loss but with a slim lead over Team Halpin, and Team Kientz closing in on both.  Team Breen took over the top of the upside down list and is moving ever closer to the fork.

Word of caution:  If out on the course and anywhere nearby League President Mr. Schumacher, be aware that you may get run over by a cart or receive bodily injury from flying debris.  Seems Mr. Schu had his 3 wheel cart on the hill on #2 and went to help a fellow golfer.  His cart decided to try and run away (Note:  From the way Mr. Schu was playing I see why the clubs were trying to leave him).  As several players watched the cart pick-up momentum it tumbled and fell over and there were clubs, balls, credit cards, etc. flying everywhere.  So if you ever think you are having a bad day someone else had a worse day.  Just be glad you didn’t get hit with any debris.

I had the pleasure of playing against Mr. Eagle Dick Flynn this week.  I was so worried about him getting another Eagle that by the time we got to 18 for Dick to tie with me he had to get an Eagle and I had to take a 9.  No Eagle and I took an 8 on the hole.  Sorry Dick maybe next week.  I did get my 1st greenie ever (on #13) and a Birdie, and was 5 under my average.   That is the second week in a row that I shot in the 40’s on the dreaded back nine. 

We had 3 subs this week.  Subs this week were Steve Ruehl, Larry Oliver, and returning to the league Jim Fish.  Welcome back Jim.

Good scores this week were:   Front:  Ray Vaughn – 36, Frank Leirey – 37, Steve Duddey – 38, Mike Donlin – 39, and Don Potter - 39; and Back:  Mark Caporale – 38.

Most under average at 5+ under average:  Chris Kerns, Sue Kerrick, Charlie Halpin, and Erich Kientz.

Gift match of the week:  Chuck Reckers shoots 3.7 over average and giving 9 strokes and wins by 4 over Pat Breen.

There were 11 Birdies this week, 5 on the front and 6 on the back.

Skins—Greenies—Long Putt

Most of the regulars and subs in the league know about Skins, Greenies, and Long Putt. For those that do not, each week there will be a sheet and a box on one of the tables in the clubhouse.  The sheet will have the names of all the regulars and blank lines at the bottom for subs to write in their names. $3.00 entry fee for Skins; $1.00 entry fee for Greenies and $1.00 entry fee for Long Putt ($5.00 for all).  Place a check mark for each category for which you are participating.  If the Briefcase is not out notate on your scorecard your intent to play and pay when you complete your match.  First teams out please take the markers, last teams in please bring markers in.
