2023 Playoffs - Round 2

What a difference a week makes as the summer heat returned with a vengeance tonight. The sweltering conditions made things a bit uncomfortable for the second nine playoff holes and last from the white tees this year.

In the “A” Division things remain very tight heading into the final Saturday. The Rolling Stones now share the lead with Grip It N Sip It after shooting a 96. The Grips posted a 95 to tie things up. The Southpaws shot 97 tonight and sit three shots off the lead. The Fat Shafts shot 95 but still have a big hill to climb after a bad first nine and they sit 12 shots back.

Over in the “B” Division the Latecomers continue to lead thanks in part to Josh Hogan who shot an even par 27 which included a hole-in-one on hole 6. The Latecomers increased their lead to eight strokes over the KGB who posted a team score of 103. The Dubbers are 11 shots back with a 207 total while the Fivesome are well back in fourth.

The “C” Division saw the Whizbangers increase their lead slightly heading into Saturday as they shot 110 for a total of 218. The Wedgers are eight shots off the lead with a 226 total. Rounding out the division the CCCP sit in third  and the Hackers are fourth.

The closest to the pin winners tonight were Jim Conley on hole 8 and Red Eliens on hole 17. Gerry Fox was the 50/50 winner.

Just a reminder that the final 18 holes from the blue tees goes this Saturday afternoon beginning at 2:30 p.m. The party will follow. As always, just a reminder to please do not drink and drive. Make sure you have a designated driver to pick you up if you plan to enjoy some evening beverages. If all goes well, I expect the putting contest to make a return again this year. See you Saturday.
