June 18, 2014 - Midweek Group's Tournament

 
Thanks to all of you who were able to come out on a pretty nice day for golf. I think we started early enough to beat the PM heat, and there was a slight north breeze that had a cooling effect. So after accounting for the loss of some regulars due to injuries, surgeries, vacations and other conflicts, 21 members showed up and seemed to have a good time.

In the Men’s A flight, longtime member, Kent Flewellyn started to find his game after a long hiatus firing a nice 88 for net 67 and first place. By virtue of a back-nine tie-breaker, Haruo Makimoto came in second with an 85/67. Third place went to Jim Coombs’ 87, net 68. Out of the money, but picking up P.O.Y. points, were Greg Fletcher (78/69) and Bryan Springer (82/70). First place honors in the Men’s B flight went to Mike McKenna who shot a really sharp 90, net 65, followed closely by Will (new driver) Hart’s 89/66, and Glen Kinion’s 91/67. Tim Waits’ net 68 and Ron McKenna’s net 71 picked up the last P.O.Y. points.


For the Ladies’ flight, Kuniko Takeuchi came in first with a nice net 70, followed by Jeri Fong’s net 74, Marie Hart’s net 76 and Linda Wark came in fourth to pick up the final P.O.Y. points. Good shooting, all of you.

In the closest to pin competition, at the 8th hole, for the A, B and Ladies’s flight, respectively, Gary Haack, 19’-9”; Bob Thomas, 8’-4”; and Kuniko Takeuchi’s 11’-11” were winners. Similarly, for hole #17, Jim Coombs, 3’-2”; Don Sperling, 10’-4”; and Kuniko Takeuchi’s 9’-0” were the winners.

And in the optional net skins game, there were 11 participants scoring only 6 skins as follows: Bob Thomas’ 1 at #8 and 2 at #15, Dave Springer’s 3 at #9, Mike McKenna’s 2 at #16, Don Sperling’s 1 at #17 and Myron Dahl’s natural birdie, net 2 at #18. Congratulations to the winners, and thanks to all who played.

Hope to see everyone back for our next event on July 16th at 8:00 AM.
