Tuesday Men

Mike Smith follows last week’s 36 with a 38 that included birdies on #2 and #6; his net score was 31. The team of Mark Jones and Mike Albertson shot a net 62 with Mark’s 36 gross and 29 net leading the way; Mike shot a 40 gross and a net 33. Each of them birdied #7 while Mark birdied #9 as well. Skip Ackerman gave away three strokes on the last two holes and still shot a super 38. Playing with Skip and doing an even better job was Charlie Lyon who shot a 36 and made a ‘clean sweep’ of the extras that the two of them along with John Walker and Phil Eyler play for each week. Charlie’s 36 translates into a 27 net. Bryant Trambaugh slam dunked a shot from behind #8 green for an eagle on #2 and came in with a 38. Buck Holland also found an eagle, his on #5, in a round of 40. Junior Byron starts with four fours and finishes with three threes and a round of 33 which included birdies on four, five and eight. Short Jeffers left several birdies on the table and still came in with a 32, a round that included birdies at two, four, six and nine.

Update Wednesday morning: The Wrap: Low scores for the next to last outing of the season were turned in by Charlie Lyon and Curt Johnson in the net category with 27's. Short Jeffers went low in gross with a 32 while Junior Byron came in with a 33. Low net team score was a 61 shot by Curt Johnson and Bric Parker. Hole prizes were taken by Mike Kidwell on #3 and #8, Mike Albertson on #7 and Short Jeffers on #9. Leaders in the standings remain Noah Callahan in the Individual competition and Terry Padgett and Gary Burris in the Team competition. In the season ending Flighted Tournament, leaders after the first nine holes are: Short Jeffers (A) with a 32, Junior Byron (B) with a 33, Noah Callahan (C) with a 37, Mark Jones and Charlie Lyon (D) with 36's, Curt Johnson (F) with a 38, and Richie Green and Don Nolan (G) with 49's.

Lots of great scores posted during this event. Guess the golfers like those August fairways. Or was it the heat? Mark Jones said he got to the point of thinking more about the heat and not so much about his shot making. Paid dividends for him with his best ever round of 36. And Junior Byron shot a 33 after playing 18 holes with the Tuesday Boyz in the morning. Charlie Lyon with his own 36 was all smiles after showing John Walker, Skip Ackerman and Phil Eyler a thing or two about golf. Skip did much better than he thought he would with his 38. Way too much fun on a sultry early September afternoon.
