IRS Wednesday Golf League Newsletter

Week 11 – July 8, 2020

 

League Secretary wishes to thank everyone for verifying and turning in/texting in the scorecards quickly this past week.  As always I am willing and appreciate receiving more than one card for players as this helps with verifying if any errors are found when I do the automated recap sheets.

Team 12 formerly Team BehrensKerrickNonnoSwann has a name change.  Team 12 will now be named Team Sue&Sherrill with Co-Team Captains Sue Kerrick and Sherrill Swann.

League Treasurer Chuck Reckers will be holding a Zoom Captains Meeting on July 23 at 7 p.m.  Items on the agenda will be remaining league fees, league scramble, and Outing plans.  Chuck will get Zoom information out to the Team Captains.

 

Every week I will post this about carts and fees. 

Green fees and cart fees are still being paid by the League Treasurer Chuck Reckers.  For those okay with riding 2 in a cart with teammates that is now acceptable and preferred.   For those who said they will walk but wish to change to walk front and ride back or ride both sides, you need to let the League Treasurer Chuck Reckers know by Tuesdays 6 p.m. so he can update his records and notify the course on number of carts we will need.  Also, if you are having a sub that is different on walk or ride you need to let Chuck know about that.  If a player wants to commit to ride the back or both sides Chuck will update his records and collect the cart fees as part of the second installment in mid to late July.  Reminder that no changing your mind at the course. 

Subs this past week:  Mike Schwarberg (Team Kientz), Jeff Barnhorst (Team Breen), Greg Arkle (Team Harms), Boyd Marley (Team Leirey), and Carol Goldstone (Team Sue&Sherrill).  Thanks for being there.

Good Rounds:  Front:  Mike Breen – 37; Garry Melish – 38; Back: Kevin Bachmann – 38.

Most under/over average (5+/-) (Sandbagger of the Weak): 

 

Under by a bunch:

Tom Nienaber – 5.0 under.

Dave Gindele – 7.0 over (2nd week over).

Ray Vaughn – 7.0 over.

Jeff Barnhorst – 6.2 over.

Division Standings:

 

A Division:  Team Bramlage still has the lead and leads the league in points.  Team Schumacher comes in second and only 15.5 points back.  Team Anderson moved up to 3rd as Team Kiffmeyer drops to 4th.  Note:  Point spread is now 61.5 points separating 1st from 4th.

 

Division B:  No change here as Team Flynn remains in 1st with Team Halpin only 15 points back.  Team Buescher in 3rd and Team Leirey in 4th and still holding the top of the upside down list.  Note:  Point spread here is now 129 points separating 1st to 4th.

 

Division C:  Big change here as Team Kientz takes over 1st with Team Breen falling to 2nd and 27.5 points out.  Team Zachritz remains 3rd and Team Harms brings in 4th.   Note:  Point spread here dropped to 106.5 points separating 1st to 4th.

 

Division D:  No changes in positions here as Team Bachmann remains in 1st but dropped to 2nd in league points.  Team Vaughn comes in 2nd and only 9 points out of 1st.  Team Pfeiffer in 3rd, and Team BKNS in 4th.  Note:  Point spread here dropped to 102 points separating 1st to 4th.

 

Seeding:

The season did not end yesterday, but if it ends tomorrow Seeding would look like this:

Number 1 Seed – Team Bramlage

Number 2 Seed – Team Bachmann

Number 3 Seed – Team Flynn

Number 4 Seed – Team Kientz

Number 5 Seed – Team Schumacher

Number 6 Seed – Team Vaughn

 

Team Breen got knocked off seeding as Team Vaughn moved into 6th Seed.  I expect more changes to happen.

 

Heard in/out or near the Clubhouse:

 

There was something an informant mentioned about a flagstick being viciously attacked.  Seems the flagstick didn’t see it coming but remained standing after a long battle that lasted a short time.

 

Then another informant mentioned something about seeing a club “flying through the air” and not attached to a person.  I think word had it that the club went further than the ball.

 

Something about it was hotter than hell.  I personally wouldn’t know since I have never been there, and I don’t think they have golf there either.
