KGB Finally Stumble

It took a while but the KGB finally faltered and the Whizbangers took full advantage to leapfrog them and move into first place in the league. The KGB hadn't lost a point going into tonight's round but the Fat Shafts changed that by taking four points in their match. The Whizbangers grabbed all six points and have now moved into first place by three points.

The heat actually didn't seem to bother too many as some lower rounds were posted. The Fat Shafts had the low team score of 93, one off the Team Low Gross lead. Three other teams also posted sub-100 rounds. The low individual score for the round was shot by Al Wilkinson with a 28. That was one shy of tying the Individual Low Gross score. Peter Hughes shot a score of 29.

The Dubbers were the only other team to take all six points. The Southpaws grabbed five points while the Fivesome and Rolling Stones each took four points. Two points each went to the KGB, Hackers and Bogies while a single point was earned by the Latecomers.

The closest to the pin winners were Eric Korver on hole #5 and Ryan Cuculuzzi on hole #14. The 50/50 winner was Tom St Denis.

Feel The Heat

It's amazing how the weather can turn so quickly. It doesn't seem that long ago the league was delayed starting due to ice and snow and then here tonight it almost felt like a mid summer round in the hot sun. I think we'll take more nights like this.

The ideal conditions didn't translate into overly impressive games as the long blue tees and some tricky pin placements gave us a real challenge. 

Three teams managed to sweep their matches. The KGB, Whizbangers and Bogies all took six points while the Rolling Stones earned five points tonight. The Fat Shafts and Southpaws both grabbed four points while the Latecomers and Hackers took two points each. A single point was awarded to the Fivesome. 

The closest to the pin winners this evening were Marty MacDonald on hole #4 and Mark Kennedy on hole #13. The 50/50 winner was Kory Hietala.

KGB Still Perfect

I don't want to jinx us but after the wet start to the season we've been fortunate the last three weeks to have ideal golfing conditions. Overall the scores were slightly better tonight but teams continue to struggle despite the amazing conditions of the course to start the year. 

The KGB remain the only team that hasn't given up a single point after week three as they swept their match against the Wedgers to earn another six points.

The Whizbangers, Rolling Stones and Southpaws also took six points. The Fat Shafts and CCCP each earned four points while the Bogies and Latecomers settled for two points. 

The low round of the night was posted by Kyle Wilkinson with a 31. The closest to the pin winners were Jim Turner on hole #3 and Kyle Wilkinson on hole #12. The 50/50 winner was Eric Mofina.

Have a safe and enjoyable Victoria Day long weekend.

Blues A Challenge

Despite an absolutely perfect evening for golf, the challenge of playing from the blue tees proved to be troublesome for most teams tonight. In fact, not one team was able to post a sub-100 score. The KGB and Fat Shafts had the Low round of 103. 

Al Wilkinson had the lowest score of the night as he shot a four over par 31. Wilkinson also managed to win the closest to the pin prize on hole #2.

Paul Scobie takes aim at the sixteenth hole.

Paul Scobie grabbed the prize on the back nine hitting the green on hole #11. The 50/50 winner was Pat Conley.

The points were spread around a bit more tonight. The KGB and Fat Shafts were the only teams to take all six points. Earning five points each were the Rolling Stones and Whizbangers. The Dubbers and Latecomers took four points each while the Fivesome and Wedgers grabbed two points. Earning single points were the CCCP and Bogies. 

It's back to the white tees next week and just a reminder, if you didn't pick up a schedule in the clubhouse tonight you can always see it by clicking the link to the right.

It Was Worth The Wait

I'm sure many of you were wondering if we'd ever get the season started but finally tonight after two missed weeks, the rain stayed away and we couldn't have asked for better weather.

The course was in terrific shape and the greens were quite speedy for the first week in May. I know it's only a matter of time but the bugs were rather tame as well.

After our usual gathering at the clubhouse to catch up after a long winter it was finally time to get things going. It was nearly clean sweeps in all of the matches as the Whizbangers, Southpaws, Dubbers, Fivesome and KGB all took six points.

Glen Lonergan fires at the green.

The Fat Shafts earned five points having to split the Net total with the Rolling Stones who finished with one point. 

There were several impressive individual rounds with Tim Donaldson and Peter Hughes leading the way, each with a score of even par 27. Andy Koetstra posted a one over par round of 28. The KGB set the pace for the Team Low Gross by shooting a combined score of 92.

The closest to the pin winners were Tyler Donaldson on hole #1 and Peter Hughes on hole #10. Lyle Williams was the first 50/50 winner of the year.
