IRS Wednesday Golf
League Newsletter
Week
12 - July 14, 2021
Condolences go
to Chuck Reckers and family for the loss of their father Elmer Reckers. Elmer was a past member of our golf league
and served as league president years ago. A memorial tree will be planted as a living
memorial to Elmer from the IRS Golf League.
Get well wishes to
Mike Breen. Mike will be having surgery
this week to repair his lungs. Hurry and
get well soon.
Congratulations
go to Kevin Bachmann shooting a 1 under par 34 on the front nine from the white
tees. Kevin had a Birdie on #1 then pars
on #2 through #9.
Most Recap
sheets this week were fairly good, however there were
some that had major errors or not completely filled out. Reminder that if white tee is giving strokes
to yellow tee then use the gold handicap holes, if yellow tee giving to yellow
tee then use the gold handicap holes, if yellow tee is giving to white tee then
use the black handicap holes, and if white tee is giving to white tee then use
the black handicap holes.
Subs this week were:
Don Bazsika (for Team Bachmann); new sub
Andrew Anderson (for Team Bachmann); Jeff Witt (for Team Buescher); Steve Ruehl
(for Team Bramlage); Greg Arkle (for Team Harms); Dave Vincent (for Team
Breen); Brian Ferguson (for Team Breen); new sub Quintin Suggs (for Team
Breen); and Mary Jo Leirey (for Team Hill. Thanks for being there.
Position round
play saw some changes to A Division and C Division. In A Division Team Kientz took the lead away
from Team Anderson (the Shirts). In C
Division Team Vaughn took the lead away from Team Bachmann. No other changes to positions, however most
teams are still close to the leaders in all divisions.
Results of Secretary’s prediction on winning position
round teams:
A Division: Team Kientz defeats Team Anderson. Team Kientz
crushed the shirts.
Team Pfeiffer with a big win
over Team Flynn. Wrong - Team Flynn with a big
win.
B Division: Team Zachritz barely wins over Team Leirey. Wrong - Team Leirey with a big
win.
Team
Bramlage overwhelmingly wins over Team Schumacher. Wrong again as Team Schumacher barely
pulls out a win.
C Division: Team Vaughn barely wins over Team Bachmann. Team Vaughn had a big win.
Team Buescher crushes Team Kiffmeyer. Wrong – Team Kiffmeyer with a big
win.
D Division: Team Halpin defeats Team Harms. Missed this by a lot as Team Harms wins big.
Team Breen with a big win
over Team Hill. Wrong - Team Hill gets a big win.
The League Secretary offered a dozen top name, well experienced golf balls
for whoever could guess the winning position round teams. I only received one response. Guess nobody wanted to take a chance. I got 2 right, the other person got 3 right,
so I will graciously give that person the dozen balls. Congratulations Kevin Bachmann for out
guessing me.
And one more comment as the Marine Corp beat the Air Force. Congratulations Jim Conrady.
