KGB Clinch League

With only one week of regular season play remaining, the KGB assured themselves a league title with their outing tonight. With a ten point lead they're can't be caught.

The Rolling Stones and Southpaws will also be in the "A" Flight in the playoffs. Despite the Whizbangers being completely absent for their match this evening they still have a chance to tie the Fat Shaft for the fourth spot, however I'm unaware of what the tie-breaker would be.

The final positions for both the "B" and "C" flights are also still up for grabs for a few teams and the final week will decide where the Wedgers, Bogies, Latecomers and Fivesome will finish.

In this evenings matches, Rolling Stones, Dubbers and Wedgers took six points while five points went to the Fivesome. The Southpaws and KGB each earned four points while two points each went to Latecomers and Fat Shafts. A single point was all the Hackers could grab.

The lowest round of the night was turned in by Kyle Wilkinson with a one over par 28. The closest to the pin winners were Tom St.Denis on hole #6 and Jordan Mercer on hole #15. The 50/50 winner was Jim Lidster.

Congratulations goes out to two league members who won the Club Championship on the weekend. Tim Donaldson won the Men's Division while Stephen Westlake won the Senior Men's Division. Many other league members had impressive rounds on the weekend as well.

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.

The End Is Nearing

With only three weeks of regular season play remaining, the time left to set up your playoff position is quickly vanishing.

The KGB have a nine point lead on the Southpaws which seems insurmountable considering how consistent they've played this season but anything can happen. The Whizbangers gained a little ground on the fourth place Fat Shafts and there is a possibility they could slip into that final spot in the "A" flight should the Shafts continue to falter. There is also much to be decided further down in "B" and "C" Flights with several teams are in the mix.

On this night there were just three perfect teams as the Rolling Stones, Southpaws and Whizbangers all took six points. The CCCP, Fat Shafts and KGB took four points each while two points went to the Latecomers, Bogies and Wedgers.

The low round of the evening was shot by Andy Koetstra with a two-over 29. The closest to the pin winners were Rick Dean on hole #4 and Stephen Westlake on hole #13. Tony Schick was the 50/50 winner this week.

Southpaws Tie Low Gross

The Fat Shafts have some company at the Team Low Gross lead after the Southpaws shot 91 against them for six points and also moved past the free-falling Shafts to sit in second place behind the KGB. The Rolling Stones were handed six easy points when the CCCP failed to field a team and now sit tied for third place.

The Whizbangers and KGB also took six points tonight while the Wedgers and Dubbers each grabbed four points. Two points each went to the Latecomers and Fivesome.

Benny Brock's luck continues as he was once again picked as the 50/50 winner. The low rounds of the evening were shot by Tim Donaldson and Andy Koetstra with scores of 28.

The closest to the pin winners were Denis Schick on hole #3 and Eric Korver on hole #12. Special thanks to Rick Dean who bought a round for everyone after his ace last week.

Dean Sinks Hole-in-One

The hole-in-one pot will be starting fresh next week after Rick Dean's tee shot on hole #2 this evening found the bottom of the cup.
Rick Dean is all smiles after sinking a hole-in-one tonight.
His choice of holes couldn't have been better as it also turned out to be the closest to the pin hole on the front nine this evening. Kyle Wilkinson was closest on the back nine with his tee shot going just a bit long on hole #11.


On what was the coolest evening we've had in some time we might have expected the scores to be pretty good overall but that wasn't the case as the majority of the rounds tonight were a tad high. Kyle Wilkinson shot a 28 for the lowest round of the night but not one team was able to score under 100.

Four teams swept their matches as the Dubbers, Rolling Stones, Whizbangers and Southpaws all took six points. The KGB grabbed five points while the Wedgers moved out of last place by taking four points. The Fivesome earned two points and a single point went to the CCCP. Dave Reid was this weeks 50/50 winner.

Steve Guindon take aim at the 4th hole.
The top four teams are starting to pull away from the rest of the pack however a lot can change in a short time.

Tonight the conditions were much more comfortable following last weeks round in the sauna and the Fat Shafts took advantage to shoot a total of 91 to take over the Team Low Gross. Paul Reid also joined Tim Donaldson and Peter Hughes for a share of the Individual Low Gross lead after posting a round of 27.

The Fat Shafts, KGB, Southpaws and Dubbers all took six points. Grabbing four points each were the Latecomers and Hackers while the Bogies and Rolling Stones each earned two points.

The closest to the pin winners were Paul Reid on hole #1 and Juddy Timson on hole #10. The 50/50 winner for the second time in three weeks was Benny Brock.

Swing & Sweat

With temperatures in the 30's and feeling like the 40's with the humidity, I think we can all cut ourselves a break if we didn't golf as well as usual. The sweltering heat and still air made playing a bit tougher and the scores for the night proved that.

The low round turned in by several golfers was 32 which is a tad higher than normal. I know by the end of my round, gripping the club was proving difficult at times but we made it. Hopefully by next week the temps drop a few degrees.

Four teams managed to sweep all their matches as the KGB, Hackers, Fat Shafts and Rolling Stones each took six points. The Dubbers and Southpaws earned four points each while the Bogies and Wedgers took two points each.

The closest to the pin winners were Don St.Denis on hole #9 and Kyle Wilkinson on hole #18. The 50/50 winner this week was Eric Korver.
