Weds Results Plus March Review

At 8:41 sharp this morning, (Aside: I have heard this term my whole life and now I wonder. Whether it is 8:41 sharp or 8:41 dull, is it not still 8:41? Maybe a more seasoned mind than me could explain this old saying.) a series of texts started. Doc inquired if anyone was playing, despite the forecast of severe storms. Jeff responded that no, he would not play, but good luck and say hi to Dorothy and Toto. I thought that rather clever and very funny. I tried to add to the conversation by sending my regrets and asked Doc to send me anything he saw on the course that he found interesting. Such as,

Doc insists the weather will hold off; he's playing. Raymond says he is in.

So, Jeff then sends me this,

saying that's Mikey in the middle. I respond that it must be Raymond and Doc completing today's players likely to show up. As I should know by now, never underestimate the resolve of Bud's Boys. Scott, Glen, Roger, and Westy joined the 3 above, making it an official round.

Despite threatening skies, there were no flying houses, or flying monkeys for that matter. Doc just tapped his red footjoys together and his prediction came true. No rain until the round was over. We on the sidelines applaud your perseverance. Another job well done.

Westy is runaway Medalist at +5, 6 strokes ahead of nearest pursuer. Glen's game-high 28 points helps Westy and team take front and total. The winners pose.

For the first time since we have tracked the CTP, there was no winner. The group went 0 for 7 hitting the green, probably in too big a hurry to get off the course. Perhaps they lacked courage, or heart.

March Review

We played 14 times in March, 2 less than 2021. A total of 36 different players posted 206 rounds of golf, an average of nearly 15 per day. Scott had perfect attendance, clocking in all 14 days. Randy and Roger had 13 each, Allen, Mikey, and Bob 12. Jeff, Dean, Doc, and Glen were the luckiest, all winning over 20 Bud's Boys Bucks for the month. Thanks to 3 of the 4 who shared their winnings, graciously buying a beverage or 2. I am sure Dean has a good reason for saving his winnings. A new putter in his future?
