Hot, Humid, and Hectic
It was hot (Pushing 90), the humidity didn't help, it was hectic getting the scoring done - I had out of town company coming. As a result because of my errors in arithmetic and yours on the scorecard, haste made waste. My apologies to Bob Smith, as well as Willis Hughes team. I miscalculated Bob's net score by 10 strokes in his favor and told him and Willis that Bob had won and Willis team had come in second. Actually the reverse was true. We had one team that did not turn in their scorecard and didn't record their scores in the computer which gave us no choice but to disqualify them. Always make sure that the keeper of your scorecard records your scores in the computer and hands them in to be counted.
The heat really got to Ed Davis causing him to play only nine holes. Hope he is feeling better. Listed below are several sheets of individual detail. The net team standings (those hole scores are gross not net) and a skins scoresheet. Congratulations to the team of Willis Hughes, Joe Cross, Denny Cosner, and Ted Mayberry for their winning effort. Second place went tot he team Bob Smith, Dave Fetty, Greg Noland, and Richard Board, 3rd went to the team of Mike Riggs, Ken Grose, Jeff Everett, and Larry Britton; 4th place went to Tim Swarr, Jim Stidham, Jim Kennedy, and Larry Clinton.
Joe Crislip recorded an actual round of 69.
Results of Red, White, and Blue Scramble
There is power in prayer. When I got up yesterday morning it was pouring down the rain. A look at the weather map showed an ominous cloud that stretched all the way to Cincinnati that was moving in a northeasterly direction. At the rate it was moving it looked like it would last all day. All I could think about was apple pies that would turn blue with mold and corn that would be too dried out to eat. Within 15 minutes, the band of rain had taken a southerly bend and the rain was starting to slack up. Needless to say the rain quit, and though the course was wet, there was no hindrance of play. We had 59 players and the preparation of the food came off without a hitch. We need to appreciate Wittens for the corn, Sams for the pies, ice cream, hamburgers and hot dogs, and John and Suzette for their help.
The team of Pat Stoneking, Earl Havens, and Ron Cullen fired a round of 8 under 62 to take first place, they were followed by Randy Walters team of Larry Pfieffer, Ralph Olander, and Bob Leach, third place went to the team of Jim Taylor, Roy Alkire, Bill (Red Tees) Jones, and Ted Mayberry, fourth place Jim (bitch spray) Bussey, Bill Hupp, Denny Cosner, and Larry Britton. Next week we will play individual with ABC skins and the third round of the presidents cup.
