2022 Playoffs - Week One Results

After a season of dry weather on Wednesday nights, we were subjected to some damp conditions at times as we began the 2022 Playoffs. 


Perhaps it was the rain or maybe playing from the blue tees but scoring overall was on the high side tonight. The end result was a close competition in all three divisions with two weeks remaining. The low rounds of the evening were turned in by Gerry Fox and Colin MacDonald who both shot 30. 


The standings after week one are below. The 50/50 winner was Rob Campbell and the closest to the pin winners were as follows:


Steve Guindon - Hole #1

Ross Prophet - Hole # 4

Jimmy Rogers - Hole #7

Gerry Fox - Hole #10

Andy Koetstra - Hole #13

Gerry Fox - Hole #16

The Dust Has Settled

With the completion of tonight’s round, another regular season has come to an end and our focus turns to the playoffs. 


Before we break that down, here’s how this evenings rounds went. The CCCP, Southpaws and Whizbangers all took six points. Grip It N Sip It and Fat Shafts earned five points each. The KGB grabbed four points while single points went to the Dubbers and Fivesome. 


The closest to the pin winners were Peter Hughes on hole #9 while Jamie Sandercock was tight on hole #18. The 50/50 winner was Mike Leslie. 


The playoffs start on the blue tees next week at 6pm and you’ll get your starting holes that night.


Two teams, Grip It N Sip It and Rolling Stones, finished tied for fourth spot but I believe since Grip It N Sip It beat the Stones 7-5 in head to head play, they will get the last spot in the “A” flight. If anything changes on that or I’ve made an error I’ll make a correction. 


Here are the playoff groupings as I understand it. 


“A” Flight

  1. Fat Shafts
  2. Whizbangers
  3. Southpaws 
  4. Grip It N Sip It


“B” Flight

  1. Rolling Stones
  2. Dubbers
  3. KGB
  4. Latecomers


“C” Flight

  1. Fivesome
  2. CCCP
  3. Wedgers
  4. Hackers


See you next week.

Playoff Picture Getting Clearer

Did anyone notice the bugs tonight? The thunderstorms passed us by but the swarms of flying critters were definitely annoying as we completed the second last round of regular play.


Some teams were able to make moves and secure their playoff positions this evening. The Whizbangers and Southpaws clinched spots in the “A” flight by taking six points each in their matches.  The Rolling Stones also earned six points and hold a five point lead over Grip It N Sip It, who took four points, for fourth place.


The Dubbers and KGB will be in the “B” flight after both teams were blanked tonight. The Fivesome still have a chance to get into the “B” flight if they can sneak past the Latecomers but it will come down to next week.


In other action, the Fat Shafts and Hackers each took six points while the CCCP earned two points. 


The closest to the pin winners were Dave Walker on hole #8 and Mark Kennedy on hole #17. Ron Eliens was the 50/50 winner this week. 


Back to the white tees next week to finish off the regular season. We’ll see you there.

Fat Shafts Clinch First Again

For the fourth consecutive season, the Fat Shafts have claimed the Regular Season title. With only two weeks of league play remaining prior to the playoffs, they can not be caught and have secured a spot in the “A” flight. 


As far as the remainder of the standings go, there’s still time to make moves to lock down playoff spots and it will likely come down to the final night. The Hackers, Wedgers and CCCP will make up three of the four teams in the “C” Flight. The Fivesome can still challenge for a spot in the “B” flight if they can make a move. 


Mathematically six other teams have a chance to make the “A” flight but it will all hinge on how the points are allocated in the last two weeks.


In tonight’s matches, the Fat Shafts and Dubbers took six points. The Rolling Stones, CCCP and Whizbangers earned five points each. Four points went to Grip It N Sip It and the Fivesome took two points. The Southpaws, Wedgers and KGB settled for one point each. 


The closest to the pin winners were Steve Westlake on hole #7 and Sean Jarvis on hole #16. Dean Timson was the 50/50 winner this week. 


Back to the blue tees next week. We’ll see you there.

Many Had The Blues

It was another humid summer night for golf but unfortunately that, combined with very still air, didn’t translate into a trouble free round for many. The longer blue tees proved to be a challenge once again. 


The standings are a bit more defined after tonight but it’s still anyones guess how the playoff rankings will pan out. Next week could make things a bit clearer. 


In tonight’s matches, the Dubbers, Latecomers and Rolling Stones were the only teams to take all six points. The Fat Shafts, Grip It N Sip It and KGB earned four points while the CCCP, Southpaws and Hackers all took two points.


The closest to the pin winners were Tom St Denis on hole #6 and Rodney Keyes on hole #15. The 50/50 winner was Steve Guindon.


See you next week on the white tees.
