Tuesday Men

The Tuesday Men finished their regular season as well as their own flighted tournament. In regular season play, Mike Kidwell and Joe Allen shot a super net 65 as a team and overtook Terry Padgett and Gary Burris for the championship.

The Padgett/Burris team did take second place while Tracy Rayhill and Greg Potts, with a net round of 67, claimed the third position. In individual competition, Joe Allen - yes, the same guy who already had a couple of trophies for the year – shot a net 33 on the day and jumped from 4th place to the top for yet another 1st place finish. Greg Potts finished second just ahead of Mike Breeden, Tracy Rayhill, and Derek Gilbertson. Low scores for the final day of the season went to Bill Carrico and Charlie Lyon with net 29’s, Terry Butcher and Mike Kidwell with gross 34’s, and, with net 62’s, the teams of Charlie Lyon and Phil Eyler, and Terry Butcher and Jeff Doyle. Hole prizes were taken by Terry Padgett, Tracy Rayhill and Terry Butcher on the par threes, and James Hager, Don Carrico and Mike Albertson with long putts. In the flighted tournament, winners included Terry Butcher in the A+ Flight, who shot a 34 on the day and finished with a 69 to best Phil Eyler by a stroke. In A Flight, Terry Padgett shot a 73 over the 18 holes and just nipped Tyler Kidwell who shot a 74.

Bird, Wease, Allen and Byron Win Saturday Scramble

On Saturday, September 5th, Mike Bird, Tony Wease, Joe Allen and Kevin Byron used the flat stick very effectively and walked to an easy win in the Saturday morning scramble at Lakeview. The team's six birdie and three par scorecard included four putts of ten or more feet. Kevin Byron started it off at #1 by draining a 25 footer. After the team got a short birdie putt on #2, set up by Joe Allen's approach shot to six feet, and tapping in for birdie at #4, Mike Bird slammed home a ten footer at #5 for a birdie. At #6, Joe Allen took his turn with a long putt, rolling one in from twelve feet out. Tony Wease completed the long putting for the day at #8, dropping in one from just off the green, a ball that rolled up the hill for twenty-five feet and then just kind of laid over into the cup from the right side. Two other teams participated: Tracy Rayhill, Roger Blake, Curt Johnson and Morris Cornelius posted a score of four under, which included five birdies and a bogey. Larry Hembree, George Templin, Lee Wininger, Ralph O'Malley and Ray Shaw combined for a three-under round that included birdies at holes two, four and six.
