Feb 19, 2014 - Midweek Group - Member/Guest Best of Two Balls



LOOK, that guy just drove the 13th green!!!

Thanks to all players and guests for an enjoyable opener to the 2014 season. There were 28 of us in all including 9 women, an all time high. The list also included 7 guests, also high for this club, many of whom expressed an interest in joining our club. This was a two person, best ball tournament, split into two flights.
 

In the A flight, the team of Eric Edgar and guest, Ken Sawitzky, bested Jim Coombs and Keith Felte for first place using a back-nine tie-breaker after both teams, playing in the same foursome, came in at 13 under, 58.  In one of the highlights, Eric Edgar drove the 13^th green, making him only the second to do so in one of our tournaments, to my knowledge! Only two strokes back, the team of Haruo Makimoto and his guest, Lance Clark, came in third on the strength of Haruo’s fine 79, net 65, low net among the men. Keith Felte, Eric Edgar and Greg Fletcher each shot 76, tying for the low gross score.
 

In the B flight, a back-nine tie-breaker was also necessary with the team of Jean Chong and Pat Mar defeating Glen Kinion and Mike McKenna, both teams scoring 10 under 61’s. Coming in 3^rd place, was the team of Barbara Conerly and Marie Hart, with Barbara’s net 64 low among all players. Well done all of you.
 

Dick Carlsen was closest to the pin at both #8 and #17 for the men and Barbara Conerly and Shirley Johnson were closest of the women.
 

13 players participated in the optional skins game with 5 of those scoring 6 skins as follows: Bryan Springer, net 2 on #2; Haruo Makimoto, net 1’s on #5 and #12; guest, James Kimker, net 2 on#7; Mike McKenna, net 4 on #11; and Eric Edgar, net 2 on #16.
 

The weather and course conditions were very nice and it seems that a good time was had by all. Thanks to all players and guests for coming out.
 

Our next Midweek tournament will be held on March 19^th, first tee at 8:57 AM for individual medal play. See you there I hope.

Feb 15, 2014 - Weekend Group - 2 Person Best Ball / NCGA Zone Qualifier

 

The Weekend Bad Boys!!!

The 2014 Weekend Group started off the season all charged up, after being delayed a week due to rain.  The tournament day's weather provided for a nice day and the course played just a little wet from the previous days of rain but the overall course was in great shape.  Overall, it was tough to beat for a day in February. 

Dick Jones teamed with Richard Sanchez, came out swinging with a front nine (26) to help set them up to shoot a overall net 57 taking 1st place both in the BCGC Tournament and the NCGA Zone.

We had 3 teams tied for 2nd place with scores of 61. So we went to the tie breaker, which is the lowest back 9 score.  The team of Dante Drake and Kevin Granderson broke the tie with the lowest back score of 29.

 

Third place went to Bob Ruff and Shawn Breakey (2nd for the NCGA Zone) with a back nice score of 31.  And four place went to Bob Thomas and Glen Kinion with a back nine score of 32.

 

5th - Doug Swann & Mike Tardio (62)

6th - Keith Felte & Lonnie Podgorny (63)

7th - Greg Leuterio & Dave Schutt (65)

8th - Tim Ramirez & David Leuterio (66)

9th - Mark Edgar & Bob Benefiel (66)

10th - Eric Edgar & Mark Edgar (68)

11th - Bryan Springer & Dave Springer (69)

 

Note:  The entire field was net under par.

 

Closest to the pin:

• Hole #5 -  Bob Benefiel (3'-9")
• Hole #12 - Dick Jones (7'-3")

Look forward to seeing everyone next month on March 8, 2014 for another Weekend 2 Person better Ball Tournament and NCGA 2 - Person Best Ball Qualifier.
