Rounds This Week Worthy of Mentioning!!!

Bill Zachritz shoots even par 35 on Front 9 which included 3 birdies on #s 2, 8 & 9 – Well Done!

Welcome!!! To two new Subs this week!

Terry Boland who subbed for Team Bachmann!

John Long who subbed for Team Anderson!

Big Move by Division A Team #13 C. Halpin in Week #12!!!

Team #13 captained by Charles Halpin and with the strength of his other 3 regulars Farlon Smith (birdie on #18), Jimmy Smith (birdie on #13), and Rafael Gonzalez (very solid 49 on Back 9), used this week to make a very strong and bold move by jumping from 3rd place in Division A to 1st place with the 69.5 points they posted against Team #11 Buescher (kind of reminded me of the ease in which General Sherman rolled through Atlanta during the Civil War).  Maybe with all the rain outs wev’e had Team Buescher decided to enjoy the sunshine and forget about winning points!

Call it a “gut feeling” or whatever else you would like to call it I (League Secretary) am going out on the proverbial limb and predicting that Team #13 will not only win Division A this year but also will end up with the most points of all 16 teams.  They are currently in 3rd place a mere 6 points out of the top spot but I’m not worried.  I’m putting $50 on them in Vegas!!!  Two teams are ahead of them right now (#14 Crouch and #16 Broadus).  To quote another age old saying these 2 teams (with August not that far away) will “melt like ice cream in August”!!!

APHORISMS / READ - UNDERSTAND - LEARN ---

A ship is always safe at shore.  But that is not what it’s built for!

A smart person knows what to say.  A wise person knows whether to say it or not!

Thought for the Weak!!!

Never blame someone else for the road that you are on.  That’s your own asphalt!

Question of the Weak???

Why isn’t the word “dark” spelled with the letter “c”?

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.  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.
