What mighta been

Shot of the day was again on 10 but a totally different scenario. Greg was +1 for the day but it should have been so much better. After hitting what looked like a perfect drive on 10 through the cart path tree line four guys scoured 70 yards in every direction to no avail. Taking a loss of distance penalty Greg proceeded to hit 3 perfect shots to salvage a bogey. CJ was in the groove with an even par day winning front, total, leading the team of Greg n Tom(closest on 14) to a team sweep, and was closest on 3. Dave L won back and took second on total. The team of Mike, Bill, n Charlie V were a few holes ahead and obviously encountered much tougher course conditions....................Charlie Johnson +1 to 33. Mike Clark -1 to 35. Bill Hall -1 to 31.

The ice men cometh

Frozen ground on Saturday had the eight Oldtimers scratching their heads as balls ricocheted off the greens. But two of the Oldtimers had no problems at all. Jimbo had the shot of the day on 10 bouncing the ball off the lake to have a chip shot into the par 5. His 2 under 69 was tops for the day reference par but only good enough for second place on back n total. Distance challenged Loghead played the ice like Spitball Charlie plays a pool table and won back +6 n total with +7 along with closest on 14. Jimbo's team of Charlie V (a +2 winner on front), Bill, and Mike(closest on 3) had the last laugh winning team total by 1 point after splitting the sides.............Of the eight contestants, five quotas increased, three stayed the same. Tom Dunlavy +1 to 26. Charlie Johnson +2 to 32. Bill Hall +1 to 32. Jim Eichelberger +1 to 35. Charlie Voss +1 to 29.

Thursday the second

A late start (1 PM) due to snow n ice on the greens did not deter the Oldtimers from enjoying Groundhog day on the front nine twice. After scoping in the wind and pin placements on the first nine Mike fired off a 4 under par to win the second nine, total, a sweep of team with Tom n Bill, plus closest. Bill and Charlie V were one point behind Mike and one point ahead of CJ, who won the first closest. After many rounds of stellar play Jimbo's biorhythms failed him completely and he made mention of wanting to crawl down that hole with Punxsutawney Phil....................Bill Hall +1 to 31. Tom Dunlavy +1 to 25. Mike Clark +2 to 36. Jim Eichelberger -1 to 34. Charlie Voss +1 to 28. Mack Miller -1 to 21.
