Week 3 Results

Week 3 results and standings are now posted in the usual spot.

There's been no marked improvement in our scores from week 2.  Only two golfers beat their handicaps on Tuesday and five tied theirs.  Everyone else was either over their handicap or doesn't yet have one.  This is the last week for which we'll use both the "it's early" and "bad weather" excuses.  Next week we're down to the weather, and it's supposed to be nice out.

Of course, my opponent needed no excuses, as Ralph Stamler led the league with his 33 Tuesday - including one birdie (2) and two bogeys (3,6).  Chris Weber is rounding back into form with his 36 and sub Andy Sullivan finished with a 39.

The Moritz team is taking no prisoners this season, with 15.5 already banked, out of 18 possible points.  They haven't shaken everyone, though, as the Warren team is right behind them with 14.5 and the Webers and Molters are lurking within striking distance.

We're slowly filling up the league rosters.  The Warren team has added Jake Holler (who has been subbing for the first three weeks) and Dave Downing (who golfed in league for the first time this week).  The Nelson team is still looking for one more long-term golfer.

Edit: I updated Shawn McGettigan's contact info on the sub list.  Shawn is interested in subbing this summer.

See you Tuesday.

Week 3 Pairings - May 8

Here are the pairings for week 3.  If you're wondering where the large gallery will be, the match-up of the week looks to be Lynn Paulson (5) against sub Andy Sullivan (4) at 5:37.

Let's keep the pace brisk so everyone can get done before dark.  We barely made it last week!

Please bring me your $25 league fees Tuesday if you haven't yet.  Thanks!

Week 2 Results

Week 2 results and standings are now posted in the usual spot.

It seems the early spring did nothing to better prepare us for the season.  Only 7 out of 38 handicapped golfers either hit (3) or beat (4, but you figured that out yourself) their handicaps on Tuesday.

It hasn't affected everyone - Steve Moritz followed up last week's 37 (net 28) with a 36 (net 27) this week.  Ralph Stamler is a bit off last year's three-round average of 35, but has still also scored 37 and 36 this year.

It' early, but the Moritz team is looking for back-to-back half-championships after winning the 2011 second half and leading so far this year.  The Warren team and others are right behind them, though.

In other news, Tuesday was great for me, as I picked up a new Callaway Big Bertha head cover that  somebody apparently didn't want.  If it goes unclaimed, I will attempt to trade it in at the clubhouse for a PBR.

A reminder - there is a 5-over par maximum in this league.  If you get to 5-over par, pick up your ball and move on.  One scorecard reported a 10 on the first hole this week, which is against the rules.
