Manager's Scramble
Wininger-Bird-Doyle Win on Card Draw
Saturday's scramble, played under sullen skies and an occasional drop of rain, ended up with two of the three teams tied for low score. Dave Wininger, Mike Bird, and Joe Doyle won on Pam Byron's card draw with a score of 39. Mike Kidwell, Junior Byron and Noah Callahan were relegated to second place with their 39 while Tyler Kidwell, Josh Huff and Kevin Byron limped home with a 41. The scramble was played with two variations: on holes three and nine, each team member played his own ball with the low two scores counting as team score for the hole; on seven, alternate shot was used. Par for the game was 41.

Thursday Senior League
Highlights for the first match of the season
Team leaders are Dave Brown and Ray Shaw with Dave also being the leader in the Individual competition as a result of his low net of 34. The low gross went to Jr Byron with a score of 40. Low Team Net score was achieved by Jack Lents and Jim Bateman who shot an even round of 70. Hole Prizes: John Chapman, Al Kavanaugh, Richard Swayze and Mike Bird. At least one player ended their round on Thursday with a birdie: Diane Bird ran one in from just off the green at #9. Average gross for the group was 50.24, 4 to 5 strokes over what it normally is. Blame it on the weather which had been pretty lousy for golfers of any kind.

Tuesday Men's League
Some pretty high scores were posted with the average for the group up 3-4 strokes at 46.54. Several of the highlights for the first regular event of the season are: Short Jeffers holed out his very first tee shot of the season; unfortunately, he was hitting off of #1 tee box and the ball found the bottom of #9's cup. He did go on to birdie the hole. Todd Baker took 7's on #1 and #4 and still came in at 38; that means he shot two under for the other seven holes. Bric Parker returned to league play after a year of nursing his back, was worn out pretty much after seven holes, and still came in with a net 32. Mark Jones also came in with a net 32 having parred four holes, including the final three of his round. Mark Sherer continued his impressive debut in league play by claiming two of the four hole prizes, #3 and #8. Eddie Green, another newcomer to league play, and Trenton Kidwell claimed the other two hole prizes at #9 and #7. Doug Denson's 37 was the low gross of the day. Curt Johnson and Bric Parker had the low team net for the week with a round of 67; that also puts them in first place in the 18 hole team tournament that concludes with the second stroke play event of the season.
