Week In Review

Kimbeland Senior Club Championship


The Boy's came through big with 3 Club Champions, 2 runner-up's, and a 3rd place finish in the 2-day tourney.

Tom, Gary, and Gerald all won their flights going away. 

Tom takes first place in Super Senior Championship Flight with a 2-day total of 2 under par 140.

Gary wins first in Super Senior 'A' Flight.

Gerald takes first place in Senior 'B' Flight. (Scores no longer posted on Kimbeland website as I type this.)

Raymond shoots even par on 2nd day to take 2nd place in Senior 'A' Flight.

Randy takes 2nd and Glen 3rd behind Tom to give the Boy's a 1,2,3 sweep in the Super Senior Championship Flight.

Jaycee 2-Man Senior Open

Bob and Glen team up to take 2nd place in the Championship Division, 1 stroke behind the winners.

Dailey Play


Doc is in Arizona for a few 'warm' days so we will feature assistant photographer Leroy for pics on Wednesday and Thursday.

Tuesday



Results were posted Tuesday, here are highlights.

Raymond gets within 1 of the CTP lead with another today.

Rodney is Medalist (+4) as 1 of only 4 players to finish plus on the day. Scott (+3), Raymond (+2), and Leroy (+1) are the others.


Wednesday



Large field of 21 sets up a match amongst 7 3-person teams.

Butch continues his winning ways, taking another CTP.

Roger blows away the field, winning Medalist (+8) by 5 over nearest competitor. He leads Scott and Glen to victories on Front, Total, and the Card Game.


Is Jeff using an illegal swing aid on his wrist?



Thursday


Brandon and Gerald show more than one way to warm up on the first tee. Brandon stretches his back and legs while Gerald takes a last drag on his cigarette.


 Tom points out exactly where club should meet ball.


The round begins.

Today was Medalist Thursday but we had an extra game to celebrate Bob's 77th birthday (Saturday). Since course was closed Friday, we added a rabbit game today, graciously sponsored by Bob (a Bobbit?).

Rodney, Rodney, Rodney!

Despite a terrible (his words) putting round, Rodney still managed to win Thursday Medalist (+4) by 2 over Brandon and Roger. He became so frustrated after a 3-putt on 10 that when Jeff requested he pull the pin, Rodney responded, "Maybe I should just (insert phrase I believe is anatomically impossible) with the pin!"

Rodney recovered his composure enough to finish strong, earning his team the CTP with a dandy shot to a deep blue pin placement on 18.

As if the Medalist and CTP were not enough, whose birdie on #8 do you think clinched the Rabbit? Yes, a nice approach to about 5 feet and following birdie putt gives Rodney's team 4 and a 1/2 of today's 6 events. Almost not enough room on the stat sheet to list his accomplishments!

Solid play from Roger, Tom, Leroy, and Kieth prevent the sweep.


Bud's Boys Constitution


Doc, channeling his inner James Madison, has drafted a Bud's Boys Constitution. We thank him for his effort to remind the group of our goals and our 'group always comes first' attitude.

Of course, any amendments will be considered by the Secret Committee.

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

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

Champion Golfer Full Coverage

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).
