Lakeview Golf Course News for the week of May 11, 2009

Potts, Johnson and Wininger are Winners


Mark Potts, Curt Johnson and Lee Wininger came in with a score of 30 in the Saturday Scramble at Lakeview. That was just enough to take the trophy over three other teams, each of whom came in at 31.
Thursday Senior League
Fighting fog and the distinct possibility of rain, the Seniors came out and braved the elements last Thursday and were rewarded with a morning which turned out to be nearly perfect. At the end of play, Rex Hudson and Jack Butcher had taken over first place in the Team competition. They have a mere half-point lead over three teams tied for second in this young season. Rex also vaulted to the top of the Individual competition with a net round of 32 for the day. Dave Strange had the low net round with a 31, while Al Kavanaugh had the low gross round with a 38. Low net team score was turned in by the team of Dave Strange and Clyde Wake with a 65. Sharpshooters for the event were Rex Hudson and Dave Brown for long putts, and Richard Swayze and Pam Byron for close to the pin. The Seniors voted for a 9am start time for the season, effective immediately.
Tuesday Men's League
Terry Butcher and Jeff Doyle continue to lead the Team competition in the Tuesday Men's League by a scant two points, with Tony Wease and Charlie Sheetz coming on strong with a net team score of 66 for the day. Low net team score went to Junior Byron and Kevin Byron who came in with a nifty 64. In Individual competition, Tony Wease sits on top with a 39 point advantage over last week's top dog, Bric Parker. Low net score for the day was 31, which was attained by both Kevin Byron and Mike Kidwell. Low gross score went to Phil Eyler who shot a splendid 34. Sharpshooters for event 4 were Terry Padgett, Sandy Winter and Phil Eyler for long putts, and Short Jeffers, Ed Green and Terry Butcher for close to the pin shots.
