HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!!!

Individual honors goes to Rich +3 on the front, Dennis +2 on the back and Rich again for total with +4. Too many ties too mention everyone splitting a dollar. The Acting Commish reported in that newby Jeff eagled #16 from 93 yards. Excellent result...as I don't know if it was a good shot. The weather was spectacular ... the carts were off the path ... we welcomed a new member, Jeff Thater, but still only fielded 7 players. Bill Hall +1 to 30. Leroy Eggert +1 to 31.

OLD TIMER'S RIDE THE PATHS TO VICTORY

Seven Old Timer's took to the cart paths yesterday with some not so stellar results. Bill posted a +2 and Bob managed +1 on the front. All other scores were even at best. Bill, Dave D, and Leroy won the front and total, tying the back. Leroy and Mike posted a pair of evens to win something, along with Bob who ended the day even. Charlie J reported in that a couple of additional wagers were added to the days play. A random pick after play identified a skin opportunity on the front and back, as well as a grennie opportunity on one of the five par threes. Bill wins the skin on the front, Mike on the back, and Leroy the greenie on 7. Now we will have a guest commentary from the Acting Commish................................... AND FOR 40 DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS THEY RODE THE CART PATHS WHILE ALL AROUND THEM WERE RIDING THE TURF!!! NEWS ALERT 1: We have it on good authority that the, "Emergency board meeting outcome was a decision to table hole #18 renovations at this time." NEWS ALERT 2: Don't forget, there will not be a game this coming Tuesday, July 6. The course is closed 'til 2 at which time it will open for the Ladies League. See you Saturday, the 3rd. The Acting Commish had the honor of being partnered with Leroy Eggert today. Sadly, Leroy hit his drive into the lake on #10. One in ... two out. With horror and astonishment he rinsed his 3rd shot as well. Three in ... four out. With 160+ yards left to the green, he pushed his 5th into the woods. A magnificent punch almost holed out his sixth. "If you sink this for double, I will write this up for the blog," said the AC. He snaked in his 15-foot-7th for a double in an unbelievable display of "never-giving-up." Leroy's team went on to tie the back as a result of his Herculean efforts. Hall was even heard to say, "You're my horse if you never win a race!" Dister loses 1 to 28. Aholt 28 * Blackwell 30 * Clark 33 * Coleman 34 * Crow 35 * Curtis 32 * Dister 28 * Dunlavy 22 * Eggert 30 * Eichelberger 28 * Gildehaus 29 * Hall 29 * Harrison 25 * Homeyer, Dale 14 * Johnson 29 * Kavanaugh 27 * Kossmann 25 * Loyd 25 * Miller 24 * Moosmann 26 * Morris 22 * Nealis 25 * Purschke 24 * Sharma 31 * Stoehner 25 * Voss, C. 30 * Voss, D. 33 *
