IT WAS CHILLY, IT WAS WINDY, THE LEAVES ARE EVERYWHERE, AND THE HOLE LOCATIONS ARE GETTING HARDER

It's no wonder with the conditions out there none of the Old Timers was positive for the day. Just when you think that the hole locations can't get any more difficult...they do! Twelve of us struggled to get the ball in the hole all day long. Once again it was four teams of three, which is a great game. The front was a little easier to score on as two teams managed to be +2. Charlie V , Jim, and Lroy tied with Dave D, Dennis K, and yours truly. The back was really ugly....reminds me of a little ditty we used to sing.....U G L Y you ain't got no alibi you Ugly!! you Ugly! Dave D, Dennis and yours truly wins the back -7 and also total -5. Individual scoring was not pretty either....Jim ( a baby Old Timer) was even for the day and took total. Pretty decent round. Dave D, Rich, and Tom tie the front with +2. Bob, Jim and Charlie C tie the back -1. Dennis is 2nd on the back as Dave D and Charlie C tie for 3rd. It was made official yesterday...the leaf rule is in effect until further notice. Again, to receive relief from a ball not found in a leafy area, it must be assumed that the ball would have been found if not for the leaves. Balls in the woods, near a hazard or the water probably will receive no relief. Before ending todays blog, I want to address my "eye" comments from Tuesday. It appears that my attempt at humor missed the mark and came off as a little offensive or defensive (depending on your side of the story). Enough said. See you all Saturday.
