2018 Playoffs - Final Round

As the saying goes...that's all folks. Another season has come to an end and we couldn't have asked for a better day. The muggy hot weather gave way to more seasonal temperatures and some beautiful sunshine to finish off our year.

In the "A" Flight, the lead by the Rolling Stones heading into the last round proved to be too much for the rest of the teams to make a move and challenge them. Although the Fat Shafts did post the lowest round of the day, the could only pick up three strokes to finish 14 strokes behind the winners. The league champion KGB finished in third while the Southpaws came in fourth well back.

Over in the "B" Flight, the Dubbers held a two stroke advantage going into the final 18 holes but stumbled and the Whizbangers moved past them to earn the title by a final margin of 10 strokes. The Latecomers had a tough day and slipped out of contention early while the Wedgers finished in fourth.

The closest battle was in the "C" Flight. The Fivesome, who lead by 14 going into the day, barely held off the charging Bogies and won by only three strokes in the end. The CCCP finished in third place while the Hackers ended up in fourth.

Once again this year we give our thanks to Steve Powell for all he does not only on the final day but all season long to keep the league running smoothly. Thanks to Tom, Alida and Andy for their efforts both in keeping the course in great shape in tough conditions and for keeping things organized in the clubhouse. I also want to thank Alida for sending me the results each week so I can update the blog.

The season started slow with some cold icy cancelled rounds but overall we managed to have good luck most of the season with the weather. Unless of course you're not a fan of the heat because it was a scorcher most nights.

Thanks to all of you for checking out the blog for updates each week and for another fun season. I look forward to seeing everyone in the Spring and hope you have a safe Autumn and Winter.

For those of you who would like to keep the clubs out a bit longer, we keep playing on Wednesday nights with some fun scrambles as long as the daylight allows.
