Fat Shafts Defend Regular Season Title

The final night of our shortened season proved to be the deciding night and when the dust settled, the Fat Shafts narrowly defended their regular season title.

Several teams had a chance to claim first place. The Fat Shafts and the second place Southpaws went head to head and both teams scored well with the Fat Shafts winning the gross for four points and the Southpaws took the net for two points. This meant the Dubbers had a chance to move into first if they could beat the KGB. Both teams played well but the KGB took all six points to play spoiler. The Rolling Stones were also in the mix and took six points to slip past the Dubbers into a tie for second place with the Southpaws.

Also taking six points tonight were the Whizbangers and the Fivesome.

Several players turned in solid rounds with Tim Donaldson shooting a 27, Andy Koetstra and Stephen Westlake both shot 28 and Al Wilkinson and Peter Hughes each shot rounds of 29. The Fat Shafts had the low team total of 89.

The 50/50 winner was Peter Hugues while the Closest to the Pin winners were Kevin Wadsworth on hole #9 and Paul Reid on hole #18.

The final regular season standings are listed on the right. Peter Hughes round last week of 26 earns him the Individual Low Gross award for the season. The Fat Shafts had the Team Low Gross this year with an 87.

The playoffs begin next Wednesday night and go for four weeks. The first two weeks will be on the Blue Tees with the last two week from the White Tees. There has been a slight change and the top six teams will compete against each other with the bottom four teams battling it out. As usual this is strictly gross score total based on your best three players each night. Tee times have yet to be set but as soon as they are Steve Powell will contact the team captains and I'll try to post them here as well.

See you next Wednesday and good luck in the playoffs.
