August 14, 2013 - Midweek Group Tournament Results

"Mr. 62" Myron Dahl

On August 14th, 16 members of Bartley Cavanaugh Golf Club teed it up for an 18 hole stroke play tournament. The weather was nice, not too hot, with a slight breeze. The course was in good shape, but with all the necessary watering, our 7:30 starting time landed us in some wet conditions with some tall clover if one strayed from the fairway at all.

Myron Dahl must not have strayed too often, shooting a sweet 80 (62 net!!) to take the honors in the Men's A group. Dave Springer had a nice round too, coming in 2nd place firing an 83, net 65. Leon Taylor came in third shooting an 86, net 68.

In the Men's B flight, Ron McKenna shot 95, net 67, followed by John Hawck, 97/68 and Mike McKenna at 92/69.

 

For the ladies, Jean Chong continued her winning ways with a net 77 and Joyce Makimoto came in second scoring a net 78. Good shooting from all of you, thanks. And thanks for your understanding when, due to late scratches, it became necessary to shuffle the advertised pairings to avoid sending out singles. For those of you not around to collect your winnings, I will save them for you until next time, or mail them to you later.

In the optional skins game, Myron Dahl's net 1 on #12 scored him one, Roy Fukushima's net 2 on #16 was another, and Bob Thomas's net 1 on #17 and net 2 on #18 earned him two skins. There were eight players in the game for these 4 skins.

There was a "Closest to Pin" contest at #17 also. This was won by Leon Taylor for the A flight with a distance of 20'-9" and Bob Thomas for the B flight at 5'-11". None of the ladies were eligible this time, sorry.

Next month, our Midweek group will play on the 18th, first tee at 8:03 AM. More on that around the first of the month. Thanks again to all of you.

August 10, 2013 - BCGC Weekend Tournament Results



"Mr. 64" David Schutt with Bob Benefiel

Saturday, August 10, 2013, turned out to be a very comfortable day as the marine-layer burned off in the morning to give us a very pleasant day in the mid 80’s.  It turned out to be a very comfortable day as well, especially for a couple of players participating in the Individual Net/NCGA Net Amateur qualifier. 

 

Low score for the day was turned in by Dave Schutt who shot a gross 80 (39-41) – net 64.  Dave bested second-place finisher Glen Kinion who shot a gross 92 – net 67.  Dave’s game is obviously coming around as he shot a career-best 79 in June at Bing Maloney during the Freeport Cup.  If Dave keeps posting those kinds of rounds, we’re all going to be asking him for strokes in the future!  Nice round, Dave! 

 

Low score for the NCGA Net Amateur qualifier was turned in by Steve Ackley who shot a gross 85 (43-42) – net 68.  Steve finished in front of his closest competitor in the qualifying event, Bob Benefiel who shot a gross 78 – net 71.  Steve now will continue on to the NCGA Sectional Qualifier on September 12, 2013.
