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.

Tight At The Top

As we settle into the season, so far it is clear that no one team is going to run away with things. Just seven points separate first from seventh place at this point.

The KGB have slipped past the Southpaws to hold a slim one point lead in the standings. The Hackers have been playing solid and currently hold down third place, just three points off the lead.

In tonight's matches the Fivesome, Rolling Stones, Hackers and KGB all earned six points. The Dubbers and Whizbangers took four points while the Fat Shafts and Southpaws each earned two points.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Dean Timson on hole #4 and Kevin Wadsworth on hole #13. The 50/50 winner was Marsh Ferguson.

See you next Wednesday!

Scobie Aces Fourteen

For the third time in just two weeks, a league member had a hole-in-one. Tonight it was Paul Scobie who achieved this honour as he drained his tee shot on hole 14 using a six iron.

Scobie’s luck didn’t end there.

Paul Scobie had a hole-in-one on hole 14.

He also picked up the closest to the pin prize on hole #18 and set the new mark to beat for the Individual Low Gross by shooting an even par 27. Denis Schick and Andy Koetstra also played well and shot 28 each. The low team score for the night was turned in by the Fat Shafts with a 95.

Taking all six points up for grabs in their matches were the Fivesome, Bogies, Fat Shafts and KGB who were awarded their points when the CCCP were unable to field a team. Earning four points each were the Dubbers and Whizbangers while the Hackers and Latecomers took two points.

The Other Closest to the Pin winner was Justin Timson on hole #9. The 50/50 winner was Derek LeClair.

KGB Set New Low Gross

The torrential rain in the afternoon that struck the area moved out in time for us to play golf tonight and that was perfect for the high flying KGB. They turned in an impressive round of 89 to take over the Team Low Gross lead.

The KGB have almost clinched first overall as well. With an 11 point lead over the second place Southpaws, they only need two more points in the final couple of weeks to seal the deal. The Whizbangers took advantage of another stumble by the Fat Shafts and are now only four points out of a top four position.

In tonight's matches the KGB and Whizbangers were the only teams to earn six points. The Wedgers, Latecomers and Rolling Stones earned five points each while the Southpaws took four points. The Hackers grabbed two points while a single point each went to the Bogies, Fat Shafts and Fivesome.

The closest to the pin winners were Justin Timson on hole #5 and Al Wilkinson on hole #14. The 50/50 winner was Don Muldoon.
