Great Steaks

We had a truly fine last day for the 2017 season. Conditions were excellent and we topped it off with a steak fry that was well received. It was good to have Larry Pfieffer come out in threads that were truly striking. Good also to see Greg Noland who has been recovering from surgery. I am in continued amazement at the amazing rehab of Jack Conlon who had knee replacement surgery just a couple of months ago.

The body of this membership is to be congratulated for the wise selection of Jerry Kern as the President for the upcoming 2018 season. Jerry has long demonstrated his willingness to work sacrificially for this league. Please give him your full support going forward.

Congratulations to the team of Willis Hughes, Dave Zoller, Jim Hackathorn, and Steve Tice who won the scramble with a score of gross 61 and adjusted to 54.01.

Condolences to the team of Roger Goddard, Jim Stidham, Alan, Hall, and Ken Grose. Roger was the sad winner of the horses___ trophy and will have the obligation of carrying it into the 2018 season before he will have the opportunity to pass it to someone else.

There was one skin sharing $110.

Thanks to all of you for your support during this season. It has been a pleasure to serve.

Amazing September

What an amazing September day. Although a little warm it was perfect conditions for golf.  The scores reflected the conditions as 24 of the 52 players had net scores that were below par.

Jim Taylor found the conditions perfect as he recorded a blazing 8 under net 62.

Next week we will close out our year capped with a steak fry. The menu will be Rib Eye steaks, baked potato, Caesar salad, rolls, with your choice of apple, pumpkin, or pecan pie with ice cream and whipped cream as you choose. It is very important that we have enough steaks for everyone, if you don't sign up to play, at least let me know if you will join us for the meal.

This is a little late posting, but I couldn't get the picture out of my cell phone. Congratulations to Roger Goddard for winning the 2017 President's Cup and to Mike Poling for his runner-up finish.

SMGA Championship

Congratulations to Joe Crislip and Alan Hall for winning their respective SMGA championships. Joe fired an even par 70 to claim the Low Gross Championship, while Alan shot a 6 under par net 64 to win the Low Net Title. Congratulations to each of you.

We had 50 golfers playing yesterday under beautiful and unseasonably warm temperatures.

We have two weeks left for league play. If you haven't been playing or are unable to play, be sure to still come out for our final day on October 3rd and share a steak with us and participate in the annual business meeting.

September 12, 2017 Results

We had 44 golfers participating yesterday in a four man team two best net ball format.

Roger Goddard captained the helm of the hurricane force performance of his other three players. Dave Zoller and Jim Hackathorn each had a net 67 but Alan Hall was a category 9 force with a net 60. The team finished first with a net score of 31 under par 109.

Finishing second was the team of Jim Taylor, Jerry Kern, Ron Warfield, and Bill Packard.

The third place team was Ron Miracle, Don Kern, Jerry Mason, and Jim Metcalf.

Coming in fourth was the team of Jim Bussey, Tom Bobbitt, Jim Kennedy, and Earl Havens.

There was probably a record number of skins as 13 were recorded. There were only 5 holes where skins were not recorded. The winnings will be spread over 50 players and will be worth a major payout of $2 each.

National Champion

I have to take the opportunity to brag a little bit. We went to Colorado Springs after the rainout last Tuesday to watch and support our granddaughter as she competed for a national championship in figure skating.

We expected her to have a respectable standing but we thought a top finish was unlikely.

We never should have had a doubt. She and her skating partner took the first place honors in intermediate shadow dancing. It really wasn't close as she and her partner took  1st place from five of the seven judges. So she is a national champion. 

Tuesday August 29th

We had 53 golfers playing yesterday. 22 golfers shot sub par scores with their handicaps. Joe Crislip shot an actual even par 70 and Roger Goddard shot an actual 73. Ron Warfield fired a net 62 and then questioned another players handicap.

Baked Steak

 Good Morning. Hard pressed for time this morning, so this will be a condensed post. Congratulations to the team of Joe Crislip, Ralph Bickle, Ed Davis, and Jack Jones for finishing first in the scramble with a gross score of 58 netted to a score of 52.05.

There were 51 golfers participating and 60 servings of baked steak steak consumed.

There were 2 skins recorded. One the team of Willis Hughes, Bill Gavin, Pete Depond, and Bob Leach; and one by the team of Jim Bussey, Denny Cosner, Jim Metcalf, and Ken Grose.
