June Review- Results of the Week & Fun with Numbers- Monday Golf 9:42
One-time Monday golf tomorrow. 9:42 tee time
Fun with Numbers
I would like to start with a few interesting (to me anyway) fun number facts.
Age is just a number, but it is impressive that we have several of our group skilled enough (and old enough) to shoot their ages or better. On Tuesday I was fortunate to witness Rodney best his age by 8 with a 74. Way to go, Hot Rod.
Math Pop Quiz. How do you score 17 points on the Back 9 without making a par? Answer: By taking a ride on the Doc rollercoaster. 5 bogeys with 4 birdies mixed in make for a true up and down ride. Thanks, Doc, for the ride and for the picture of Kimbeland at sunset above.
A not so fun oddity from Scott. Last week he had 2 days where he shot a combined -10 and still won $1. The other 2 days he shot a combined +11 and lost $8. As Leroy often says, "You got to have good teammates!"
June Review
We played 15 days in June with a total of 31 different players contributing to the 241 rounds of golf, a strong average of 16 per round.
Glen captured 3 CTP's for the month. Tom, Jeff, and Dean each had a pair.
That makes the yearly CTP leaderboard look like this.
Tom 9
Raymond 8
Glen 8
Jeff 7
Bob 6
Jeff won 3 Medals for the month. Glen and Roger were the only other multiple winners with 2. For the year our leaders are:
Scott 15
Tom 10
Jeff 7
Bob 6
Raymond 6
Remember the slogan, 'Find your Game' by Taylormade, I think?
These golfers found their game in June. From the first day in June to the last, KZ improved his hcp# by 7. Tom and Butch 4.
I forgot to list those names from May, so I will do it now.
Keith improved by 6, Leroy 5, and Rodney 4.
Tuesday 6/27 Results
Though Total scoring did not equal our high scoring from Friday, more birdies were made on Tuesday to start the last week of June. Probably a season high 30 birdies were holed on the day.
The birdie hogs were Doc, Butch, and Tom, winners of the Back and Total. They had 3 birds on the Front and then went a little crazy with 8 birds (and Tom's eagle on 11) on the Back. All 3 birdied 13.
Doc's birdie on 18 was from CTP winning range.
Rodney and Jeff each shot even par on the outward 9 to give their team victory on the Front.
A couple pics from Leroy. Clint hitting his new driver, Westy still hitting his old one.
Wednesday 6/28
Scoring took a major drop today although reasons are not clear.
Glen shoots a 1-under par 70 to earn Medalist with +5.
Scott & Floyd shoot +3's good for Front and Total.
Thursday 6/29
Triple digit temps arrive for Thursday and Friday, limiting our group to 11 today. Cloud cover and constant breeze gets everyone through the day with no issues.
All 3 teams score +4.5 on the Front, another oddity.
Glen is Medalist (+7) for 2nd straight day, this time with a 4-under 67 (40 pts on Back 9).
Jeff is given the CTP. (Editor's note: Do not forget to leave a tee in the ground on 18. Your shot could win whether you believe it or not.)
Friday 6/30
Temps again top 100, this time no clouds or breeze. We had 8 of us do a 9 & dine. We played an unofficial 9-hole match and gathered inside for lunch. Of course, Mikey (and Roger) went back out to finish 18.
