July 20, 2011 – Midweek Group - Medal Play, Net Score

This month the midweek group fielded 18 players with 17 (4 ladies and 13 men) competing in a Medal Play, Net Score format. It was a fine day with clear skies and mild AM temperature warming to 92 degrees by the end of our rounds. The fairways and greens were in good shape and the only casual water left was the low spot right of the 1st fairway.

We were all happy to have 4 ladies play with Shirley Johnson low net with a 69. In the men’s A flight, Doug Swann and Dave Springer both shot net 67’s but based on his back nine score, the nod went to Doug. Honors in the men’s B flight went to Ron McKenna with a fine 63. Welcome back Ron! New member, Ed Fierro, who only recently took up the game, was the big winner though, shooting a net 64 for 2nd place men’s B Flight, collecting closest to the pin on #17 in the process.

Thank you all for playing. Next month’s tournament, starting at 8:00 AM on August 17th will be individual medal play again. We had a different game planned but the bulk of the comments I heard were in favor of the straight stroke play tournament after all the early season games. Let me you’re your feelings too. And let’s hope for more nice weather and another nice sized group. Look for the tournament announcement around August 1st.
