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.

Sorry I'm Late With This.


Sorry l'm late posting this, I was sick all day yesterday.

From the chatter and discussions before and after play, one would assume the event was enjoyable.

Some unusual scoring took place. Jim Reynolds fired a sizzling net 61 but finished third in his group because he wasn't able to pick as good of a partner as Jim Bussey and Willis Hughes.

Bussey parlayed his scoring and the ability to make a good pick in Jim Satterfield to card a 62-63 125 for first place in the A group.

Bob Smith shot a net 65 and paired that with his pick of Denny Cosner's net 62 for a score of 127 to win the B group.

Jim Satterfield shot a blazing 63 net and picked Mike Cullen as his partner which provided a net 64 for a total of 127 to win the C group.

We had 51 golfers playing and there were 18 skins.

New handicaps have been posted effective August 15th.

Don't forget next Tuesday will be a scramble with a  cookout. The menu will be baked steak, mashed potatoes, gravy, and green beans.

What A Wonderful Day


There seemed to be a consensus that yesterday was the best weather we have had for golf this year. It seemed a shame that our golf  kept us from enjoying That was not the case with the foursome of Joe Crislip, Bill Jones, Hurst, and Earl Havens. This group finished first in the two best net ball format with a 24 under par score of 116.

One shot of the pace with a score of 117 was the team Jim Taylor, Ron Miracle, Denny Cosner, and Bill Packard.

Third place went to the team of Randy Walters, Bernie Buttrey, Tim Swarr, and Tom Bobbitt at 119.

Fourth place was the team of Jim Bussey, the Cullen boys Ron and Mike, and Jim Satterfield with a score of 121.

There were 58 golfers playing and 9 skins were recorded to be split among 36 players.

Ron Cullen got greedy as he won both the longest putt on hole 9 and the proximity prize on hole 16.

Congratulations to all of the teams for turning in their scorecards.

Nest week will be a modified individual format. Each player will need to pick a partner from the list of players. That partner will provide the second score for each player. A player may be picked by more than one participant. This will test each players scoring ability and ability to pick the right partner.  A form will be provided to record the partner you select. Come early so you can take the time to make a wise choice.
