Week 1 Results

Well, we made it through Week 1 of the golf season and, in the sense that there were no major injuries, it was a success. Actually, I think some people must have installed putting greens in their basements over the winter. Twelve of the 29 established golfers (41%!) either tied or beat their handicap the first time out. Me? Not so much.

Below are some statistics and prize winners from 4/29. I’ll have results and standings posted later this week. Look for next week's pairings around Monday morning. The schedule for May 6 is on the right-hand side.

Average raw score: 48.2

Low raw score: 39 (Dave Rieves – apparently freed from the pressures of Commissionership)

Low net score: 27 (Doug Hoerr)

12-or-Less Putts: 11 (Bob Moritz – and he wasn’t too pleased about the 11^th!), 12 (Lynn Paulson)

#2 Closest to Pin in 1 – Jeff Dvorak
#5 Longest Drive – Bruce Marble
#8 Closest to Pin in 1 – Tom Hidde
#9 Longest Putt – Dave Rieves

Again, we need more golfers! Until we are able to fill the former Hemberger team, we'll be filling that team with subs. Please help me recruit!

- Dave

Edit: Lynn Paulson also had 12-or-less putts (12)

Week 1 Pairings

I'm still working on finding a 10th team but - until I do - here are the pairings for Week 1. I'll always post a link to my weekly Pairings/Results spreadsheet on the right-side of this blog, too.

Remember that the Weiss/Marble Match-up will start before our normal starting time. I'll be at the 1st Tee on Tuesday to greet everyone (I'm sure half of you have no idea who I am) and to collect league fees ($20).

4/29: Weiss vs Marble time change

In order to avoid any night putting, the April 29 match between the WEISS and MARBLE teams has been moved to 4:37 and 4:45. They will be the first group out that night. All other match-ups will occur at their originally noted times.

Lemme tell you a little story, I once knew a guy that could've been a great golfer, coulda gone pro, all he needed was a little time and some practice, decided to go to college instead, Went for 4 years, did pretty well. The end of his 4 years, it was his last semester, he was kicked out, you know what for? ...he was night putting, just ....putting ...at night .....with the 15 year old daughter of the dean.
