FRANKLIN COUNTY COMMISSION CHANGES ITS MIND!!!

Please see the below info just provided by Wolf Hollow.....

Back to the Struggle

Tuesday saw six Old Timers play on a very wet golf course, but with little wind or cold temperatures to add to the challenge. The greens were being readied for Saturdays tournament and were very quick and smooth. Only one of us was positive for the day.. DD at -2, +3, +1 won the back and total. CJ with -1 wins the front. Again, with DD's solid play, the team of DD, DL, and CC with -2, -11 win back and total. CJ, CV. and BH won the front with -5. Greenies... #5 CJ, #7, DL, #11 BH, and #14 CC. While I miss the sun and warmer weather, it was really nice to be back and catching up with everyone. Thursday looks iffy, but as we practice safe distancing..I hope to see more of you next week.

Loyd up 1 to 23. Johnson down 1 to 29.

Thursday's Results

Thanks again to the acting commish for all of his help during my little trip down south. After reviewing this weeks results with Brandel Chamblee...the first Old Timer of the Week Award for 2020 goes to Bill Hall. Bill was plus 1 for both days, his team swept all matches, won 2 of 6 individual contests and managed 1 greenie. If he chooses, Bill can use my parking space everyday until the next award winner is selected. And now for the results as submitted by the acting commish……

	BC (-3,+2,-1), CV(-5,-3.-8) and CJ (-2,-5,-7) lose all three ways to RP (-1,E,-1), DD (E,+1,+1), BH (-1,E,-1) and JE (E,+2,+2). JE and DD split the front at Even.  BC and JE split the back at +2.  JE wins the 18 at +2. BC wins greenies on #3 and #11.  JE wins greenie on #14.  The high winds took their toll on #5 and #7 leaving them greenie free. The only movement was for RP who went down 1 to 22.

HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!!

It's time to buckle down, put those Costco pants in the cedar closet, and get ready for another year of battle in the Krakow Old Timers Golf Group. The coveted Old Timer of the Week Award will return this year. In addition to the monetary award, this year the weekly winner  will receive a dedicated parking space to use until the next winner is announced. I look forward to returning home in a couple weeks and rejoining the fray. Until then, I will utilize the expert result commentary from the Acting Commish to describe the days play...….
 Today marks the beginning of quota adjustment season 2020.  Eight players fought the winds of Franklin County in the year's inaugural match.  After the smoke cleared, these are the results:

The team of BC (-2, +2, Even), KE (-5, +1, -4), CV (-7,-7, -14), and DD (-2, +1, -1) were soundly defeated by the team of RP (-4, -5, -9), CJ (-6, -1, -7) DA (-5, +3, -2) and BH (+1, +1, +2).  The Coleman team was -16, -3, -19.  The Purschke team was -14, -2, -16.  A lot closer than it seemed.

Bill Hall wins the front and 18 with +1 and +2 (the only player plus for the day.  Dave Aholt wins the back with +3.

Greenies were won by BH on #3, BC on #5, DD on #11 and DD on #14.  Nobody got a sniff of #7.  The quotas reflect the committee's new rules.  The last 10 scores will be used and no score lower than -3 will be accepted.  So, if you're -5 for the day a score of -3 will be added to your quota totals.

Happy New Year!!

January 2020 has arrived..the PGA Tour is teeing it up this week at Kapalua under less than ideal conditions... and quite a few Old Timers have been showing up at the friendly confines of Franklin County to do a little battle. . Even though our playing conditions here have been a little dicey...the scoring doesn't reflect that at all. Luckily for some of us, Bob C has departed for his abode in Texas.
Bob has been playing some excellent golf..and we should probably change the name for greenies to Bobbies!! There are plenty of carts with covers and heaters..so if you feel the itch to tee it up, come on out.
According to the head muckity mucks...there will be some changes made going forward on how point totals will be calculated. -3 is the cap on daily negative point totals, and the last 10 scores will determine your required point totals. Updates will begin again starting March 1. Point totals to be used until then are as follows:

Old Timers battle the elements...

5 Old Timers with covers and heaters in place wondered where in the hell fall went as they teed it up today. Cart path only, plugged and overseeded rough added to the enjoyment. TM with +3, +1 wins the front and total. CJ wins the back at -1.
TM wins greenies on 3 and 5. CJ wins #7. Easy to see that TM and CJ took home all of the cash today. Conditions were fairly severe for late October.

New Point Totals

Four people dropped 1 on Tuesday.  Dister to 29, Johnson to 29, Purschke to 23 and Voss to 30.

Old Timers flock to the course on a beautiful day.

Thursdays beautiful weather brought out 12 Old Timers. With the exception of two players, scoring was less than stellar. only 6 of the 24 nines saw positive outcomes. The team of DD, CV, and JE won the front with +2 and total with +1. DH, RS,  and TM won the back with a score of even. Individual was a battle between DA (+5, E, +5) and JE (+6, +1, +7). DH sneaks in a victory on the back at +3.

Greenies....#3 JE, #5 DH, #7 BH, #11 BH, #14 RS

Again this week, there will be no Old Timer of the Week. As a refresher...players must compete on both Tuesday and Thursday to be eligible for consideration. Two solid days of total play, including greenie success is a requirement to winning.

I apologize for the blank spaces the last two posts. I've got no clue as to why.

Walk-on newcomer Ray Sharma was welcomed  today by the Old Timers. It is rumored that RP mentioned that he has underwear older than that kid! To show that youth means nothing, well not too much anyway, the team of BH, RP, and CJ captured the front and total with +5, +6. Led by the youngster, DA, CV,  and RS won the back with +5.
CJ who proudly said that he only hit three greens in regulation, was a chipping fool as he carded a little 73. He won the back and total with +3, +5. The youngster, RS with his youthful stamina wins the back with +3.
Greenies as follows...#3 BH, #5 RP, #7 RS, #11 DA, #14 BH
Hall drops 1 to 28, Johnson goes up 1 to 30, Sharma goes up 2 to 30.
