Winter thaw

Seven Oldtimers teed it up Thursday on a day when most of them ran their cart air conditioners. The foresome, led by Jim (who tied front n total), Tim (who won back n tied total), Bill (who took second on back and had a smooth +3 on the day), and CJ (along for the ride) swept the team game +4, +7, +11. Josh Z tied front with Jim n Charlie V winning closest. CV's tee shot on 11, I'm told, had a very high artistic value also......................Oddly, the only player whose quota didn't change was one of the champs ... Mr. Eichelberger. Charlie Voss -2 to 27. Josh Zastrow +2 to 35. Jeff Kavanaugh -1 to 25. Charlie Johnson -1 to 30. Bill Hall +1 to 30. Tim Morris +1 to 23. Winter Quotas Aholt 30 * Baer 29 * Blackwell 29 * Clark 34 * Coleman 33 * Cozzo 27 * Crow 33 * Curran 27 * Curtis 30 * Dister 27 * Dunlavy 23 * Ecklekamp 36 * Eggert 31 * Eichelberger 31 * Fortner 30 * Gildehaus 29 * Hall 30 * Herrick 28 * Johnson 30 * Kavanaugh 25 * Kossmann 25 * Loyd 22 * Miller 21 * Mitchell 27 * Moosmann 30 * Morris 23 * Nealis 23 * Purschke 22 * Sharma 29 * Triplett 30 * Viox 27 * Voss, Chas 27 * Voss, Colby 32 * Voss, Dean 36 * Zastrow 35 *

Leroy’s “Free Ride”

There was a considerable amount of rust on some of the 9 Oldtimers on Tuesday but not on the Lumber Baron and Loghead. Bill took the front, CJ the back and they tied total. They also carried Leroy to a team sweep. Bob, Jim, n Mac all pocketed some money. Mike won closest on 5, Bob on 11"..........................It's great to see that nine Oldtimers hit the links with a "Bomb Cyclone" bearing down on them. Some of the scores ... not so great ... others were. With all the vagaries of the Quota Game in play, there were only two changes. Bob Coleman +1 to 33. Mike Clark -1 to 34. Winter Quotas Aholt 30 * Baer 29 * Blackwell 29 * Clark 34 * Coleman 33 * Cozzo 27 * Crow 33 * Curran 27 * Curtis 30 * Dister 27 * Dunlavy 23 * Ecklekamp 36 * Eggert 31 * Eichelberger 31 * Fortner 30 * Gildehaus 29 * Hall 29 * Herrick 28 * Johnson 31 * Kavanaugh 26 * Kossmann 25 * Loyd 22 * Miller 21 * Mitchell 27 * Moosmann 30 * Morris 22 * Nealis 23 * Purschke 22 * Sharma 29 * Triplett 30 * Viox 27 * Voss, Chas 29 * Voss, Colby 32 * Voss, Dean 36 * Zastrow 33 *

Tuesday the 6th

Eight Oldtimers discounted a dreary day with a threat of rain to have a pretty nice day on the links. The star of the show was without doubt the Lumber Baron. He won a share of all six events with a nifty +6 total and carrying the team of Dave L, Dennis, and Leroy to a near sweep of team events. Mac carded a nice +4 on back +3 total while Charlie V tied front at +3 and was also +3 total. Unfortunately, their stalwart play was not enough to carry the deadbeat loghead, who's blow up on 17 cost them dearly. CJ won closest on 5 and Mac won 11. leroy was second on both. That will teach him to get in that last group..............Dave Loyd -1 to 22. Bill Hall +2 to 29. Winter Quotas Aholt 30 * Baer 29 * Blackwell 29 * Clark 35 * Coleman 32 * Cozzo 27 * Crow 33 * Curran 27 * Curtis 30 * Dister 27 * Dunlavy 23 * Ecklekamp 36 * Eggert 31 * Eichelberger 31 * Fortner 30 * Gildehaus 29 * Hall 29 * Herrick 28 * Johnson 31 * Kavanaugh 26 * Kossmann 25 * Loyd 22 * Miller 21 * Mitchell 27 * Moosmann 30 * Morris 22 * Nealis 23 * Purschke 22 * Sharma 29 * Triplett 30 * Viox 27 * Voss, Chas 29 * Voss, Colby 32 * Voss, Dean 36 * Zastrow 33

WHO IS THIS OLDTIMER? AND WHY IS HE DRESSED ... YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN1

 

AND THIS IS WHY WE HAVE WINTER QUOTAS!

It's not often you see a team win the back and total with -9 and -10. But, you see it in the winter. My apologies for not being able to calculate your quotas after your Tuesday round, but the old laptop was packed for travel. Anyway, after your Thursday round, seven oldtimers have new quotas for the next battle. Charlie Voss - 29. Bill Hall - 27. Charlie Johnson - 31. Jim Eichelberger - 31. Mike Clark - 35. Mack Miller - 20. And, even though he won two legs in the last two contests, Tom Dunlavy dropped 4 to - 22. 

Winter Quotas  

Aholt 30 * Baer 29 * Blackwell 29 * Clark 35 * Coleman 32 * Cozzo 27 * Crow 33 * Curran 27 * Curtis 30 * Dister 27 * Dunlavy 22 * Ecklekamp 36 * Eggert 31 * Eichelberger 31 * Fortner 30 * Gildehaus 29 * Hall 27 * Herrick 28 * Johnson 31 * Kavanaugh 26 * Kossmann 25 * Loyd 23 * Miller 21 * Mitchell 27 * Moosmann 30 * Morris 22 * Nealis 23 * Purschke 22 * Sharma 29 * Triplett 30 * Viox 27 * Voss, Chas 29 * Voss, Colby 32 * Voss, Dean 36 * Zastrow 33 * 

I must say, it did my heart good to see Mr. Loyd's name on the list of players.  I hope his wrist is healing and am looking forward to seeing his name frequently.
