Tuesday Men - Come on Down!

Here we go again.  Final day of the Individual Flighted Tournament with the closest races in A+ and D Flights where Mike Kidwell and Brent Courter hold very tenuous leads of a single stroke over Dave Wininger and Tim Voegerl, and Mark Potts and Bric Parker only two back.  The leaders in the other four flights, Terry Butcher in A Flight, Greg Potts in B Flight, Larry Sutton in C Flight and Mike Strawn in E Flight, enjoy a lager spread but still have to go out there and hit the ball.  And, as each of us golfers knows, a lot can happen in the space of nine holes.  Actually, a single hole...

Of note:

-One of the leaders in the league was out practicing last night (Curt Johnson); the other was no where to be seen though his daughter Brittany was out with a couple of other young ladies to get in some early evening practice.

-Zero handicappers this week: Mike Kidwell and Doug Denson.  Mark Potts gets a stroke from the field this week - first time that has happened in about a gazillion years.

-Guys playing unexpectedly well and seeing the result with low handicaps of 2: Terry LaMar, Rob Rollins.

-The course is still dry even with the inch and a quarter of rain we got last Saturday morning.  Expect roll in the fairways and drop and stop on the greens.

-Coming up next week: Two special contests: Closest to the pin shots on both #2 and #7.  Extra $1 entry fee on each with the pot going to the winner.
