Weds 10/18 Results

Thursday Results will be posted this weekend.

I can report that Tom won his 2nd consecutive CTP Thursday, so come out Friday to make him earn his 3rd to join Floyd and Butch as the only 3-straight winners.




Wednesday Card Game

Four 4-man teams squared off in a friendly game of cards. The course was a somewhat friendly even-handed host today as no player scored worse than -2. Along those lines, no one scored better than +3. Oh, except for Roger who seems to show out occasionally with a +8 outburst, like today.
His team sweeps the FBT, winning the Total by 10 points.

Roger's team also wins the Card Game. They were stopped short of a Royal Flush (winning all 5 events in a single day) by Tom's CTP, which also puts him in the CTP lead for the season.

I have stressed so many times about the importance of never taking a putt for granted, never thinking you are out of a match. Today was just another example of how 1 point can change the outcome, which affects several players involved in the match.

Scott's Revenge


To say October has been unkind to Scott would be an understatement. His cold streak has been so bad that his best day of the month was yesterday. Because yesterday he broke even for the day. Because he didn't play yesterday. 

Although his day had not been good, Scott hit his tee shot on 18 just far enough to trickle on the green, good enough to earn a card if he could negotiate his 40-foot putt in 2 strokes. Forget 2 putts, Scott jars the 40-footer for birdie! The result of this clutch putt is $32 dollars for his team. The extra point for the birdie gave his squad a 1/2 point victory on the Back and his bonus card was needed to fill a straight to win the card game. That's the way to break a losing streak.

Bill stops by to visit.


He is scheduled for shoulder surgery in December, looking forward to return to the group.

Jeff has already decorated for Halloween.


Didn't know Leroy moonlights as a gumball machine.


Brandon submitted this very apt description of a golfer. Although Max Homa is a professional, his words are accurate to all levels. (The picture kinda looks like Brandon after his tee shot on 18.)

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

  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 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.
