Buds Boys KCC

 Bud's Boys Hump Day Happenings The first 3 days this week were absolutely gorgeous, and the scores reflected the great weather. There were more double jumps than a checker game at the Mayberry Barber Shop.   Eight times in the 3 days played someone reached +6 or better. What goes up must come down. Monday Wilhelm +11, Jeff +7, Raymond +6, and Glen+6 start the week off right. Jeff wins CTP. Tuesday Randy +8, Doc +6, and Wilhelm +6 move it on up. Doc, Val, Dean, and Wilhelm sweep the FBT. Glen wins his 6th CTP of 2025. Randy's eagle on #13 wins the Random Skin. Wednesday Jeff Medals with a +6. Roger and Wayne add +3's to sweep FBT. Glen takes the CTP. Going for his 2nd Floyd Thursday! Ace high straight wins the Card Game.

 Bud's Boys Sunday Sentinel A tee box suggestion, Thursday, Friday results and the penultimate entry of my baseball journal. Build Your Own Golf Course! Pete Dye, Donald Ross, Jack Nicklaus, and you. You too can be a golf course architect. Let me explain this with a suggestion. We all agree that the main goal of Bud's Boys Golf is to have an enjoyable round of golf with our group. I don't think I am going out on a limb by saying we have more fun when we play well. So, consider this the next time you play. We are not bound to the scorecard when it gives us the 4 or 5 tee options. I suggest we tweak it as much as we want to reach the comfort level of each player. As long as you stick with your final choice of your 18 tee boxes, your handicap number will take care of itself. Needless to say, if you are comfy with playing white, red-white, or red, (or blue, blue-white) then fine. You do not need to change a thing. But, let me give an example. The coming of April will likely mov...

Wednesday Card Game Coming this weekend. 'Build Your Own Golf Course!' An 'even' number of 9 players (that's BB's lingo) played through today's wind advisory. Constant 20-25 mph winds with occasional 40+ gusts kept things interesting. The best example was Rick's approach on 16 that stayed on the right upper level of the green, 20 feet below the cup, for nearly 4 minutes while he walked up to the green. Right before he marked his ball, a strong gust rolled his ball backward until it rolled off the front of the green. His bogey did not mar his +3 performance, however. In fact, scoring was much improved over the lesser Tuesday conditions. Figure that out. Glen wins his 5th CTP. Stop me if you have heard this before department: Two-Card KZ strikes again! KZ's team only earned 5 cards to challenge a 7-card team and a 6-card team. KZ hit a pair of sixes with only 2 turns of the cards. He proceeded to watch the 6-card team manage only a King high while the ...

Monday and Tuesday Box Scores Monday Doc wins 2nd straight CTP, will take a second try this year for a Floyd. Tuesday Big group of 16 to play in constant 20 mph winds.  Jeff showed no fear with a +5. Doc's Floyd attempt sleeps with the fishes.  

Bud's Boys March On Reports on Thursday and Friday Results and more from my 1973 baseball journal. We played all 5 days this week as the weather held off until Friday night. Certainly, hope all escaped any damage from the storm.  Thursday Medalist Day Several players threw their hat into the ring in an attempt to claim Medalist Honors. Doc and Leroy came in with impressive +4 performances in the lead threesome only to see Allen follow their group with his +5. Group 3 produced a +6 from Randy for the top score with only team 4 left to finish. Glen and Shelly came through with plus scores, but it was Roger's +7 that carried the day. He not only earns the Medalist event but also leads the FBT sweep.  Marty's CTP prevents the Royal Flush. Friday March 14 All 3 teams got some money back on Friday Rabbit Day. Doc's 4th CTP of 2025 is the saving grace for his team. Glen's birdie on #9 wins the Rabbit and contributes to a victory on the Front 9. KZ's Medalist best +6 pr...
