Thursday June 30

 The last day of June brought out 15 of Bud's willing and able Boys. Two of today's players announced yesterday they would not play but reconsidered. Jeff because he was thrown out of the house. Dean couldn't remember why he wasn't coming today, but assured me that after today's -6, the reason is now clear.

Thurs Results

Mikey Medalist at +7. Honorable mention to Founding Fathers Andy and Norm at +6, and Allen +5. Special mention to Rodney's +4, despite playing last 14 holes with one less club than what he started with. Rest of the story revealed upon request. His team did win Back 9.

Andy showed some of the old magic with a solid day of ball striking, resulting in a game high even-par 36 points. His performance wins Front and Total for his team.

Bob chalks up his 4th CTP, his reaction to his putt gives away the result.



Other Highlights

Andy shoots 1 under on front, Mikey and Glen even par.
Andy, Randy, and Dennis M have no circles on their card, that doesn't have a number inside.

Almost Highlights

Rodney pars first 8 holes on back, before doubling 18.
Bob scores 13 points on his first 6 holes, 1 on next 3.
Leroy hits the ball very well today but does not score well. Call Brosey for explanation.

Fun With Numbers

Guess which hole was the easiest on the day, surrendering an even par 30 points?
Considering pin placements and such, can you guess the hardest, yielding only16?
Winning guess receives this valuable coupon.


Wow, that was fast, Allen has already claimed the prize.
Number 1 was the easiest, 5 more than runners up 11 and 18.
Number 12 was most difficult, one less than #9.

Heads Up for Next Wednesday

Raymond, Glen, Leroy, Gary, Bob, Clint, Randy, Bill, and a handful of our subs, will be in Dexter next Wednesday, representing BB's in SEMO Senior action. If the rest of you would like to enjoy a quiet, peaceful round of golf, make plans to play Wednesday. Scott has assured me he has a special game cooked up for those who show up.

St. Pat's Day Sunday 3/17

  Happy St Patrick's Day everyone. Today's edition has the final results from Thursday and Friday's rather small turnouts. But first, something new we are trying.  Many of you know today is the day the NCAA Tournament is revealed, and everyone starts filling out their brackets. Well, forget Kentucky and Kansas or Purdue or whoever! The real March Madness will take place at Kimbeland CC. Read on and fill out your bracket. The person who best predicts the outcome of all the matches will get some yet undetermined special prize, fitting the magnitude of such an event. Here are the participants and their region. In the Allen Hill Regional, Allen himself will square off with Randy. The winner will face the survivor of the Glen vs. KZ matchup. In the Andy McIntosh Regional, Doc and Jeff will meet, with the winner playing either Raymond or Leroy for the regional final. The Bud Marshall Regional has Scott and Roger facing off with the winner going up against the Bob vs. Tom match. T

Mother's Day 5/12

  Happy Mother's Day to everyone. I trust we are all treating the mothers in our lives like the queens they deserve to be treated. Hard to believe my own has been gone 41 years, but the 27 I lived with her are still as vivid as can be. Today might be Mother's Day, but Friday was certainly Mudder's Day. A seven-day layoff for BB's as our course was recovering from the deluge of constant rain. Though most of the course was okay, many swings today produced a spray of mud and water. The layoff combined with the conditions made plus golf a challenge. Tom's Medalist best +5 and Shelly's +3 were the only scores that moved their hcp# upward. No team finished plus in any of the FBT categories. Butch wins the CTP and Doc turns 2-pair in the Card Game to give their team 2 events today despite having the worst score of the 4 teams. Match Play Champion Crowned Also on Friday, the much-anticipated final of the first ever BB's Match Play Championship was completed. Clint a

Champion Golfer of the Year Raymond had to be on his game to win, as there were several great rounds turned in over the two days of play. Let's start at the beginning as we go step by step through the stages of the tournament. Thursday, Day 1 Twenty-four Bud's Boys teed off in hopes of taking home the big trophy. The weather was 40 degrees warmer than day 1 last year. The scores reflected the great conditions as half the field finished in the plus column. Butch leads at +7, 1-up on Raymond, Clint, and Floyd. Par 3 winners today #4 Westy #6 Butch #8 Tom #18 Bob Players compare scores post round Jeff predicts who will win on Friday Scoreboard Thursday Friday-Tournament Conclusion The group came out in patriotic red, white, and blue to support our Ryder Cup team (they needed considerably more than that it turned out). Front 9 Another great weather day and plenty of optimism as tee time neared. Several players scorched the Front 9 in an attempt to catch up. Hottest start to the rou
