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.

The Norm Hayden Regional has Rick vs. Butch taking on the winner of Clint vs. Dean.

The number before each name is the handicap number to be used throughout the tourney. Regular play will be the same as usual. This will not change anything other than the 2 opponents will play in the same group.

Like the NCAA big dance, our tourney will start THURSDAY, giving everyone time to fill out a bracket. I will pass some out Monday and Tuesday, or you can make your own. They need to be turned in before Thursday play. Try to have some fun with this, anyone may fill one out, not just the players.




Thursday March 14

For the second time in a two-week span, a team sweeps all 5 events. KZ, who was a member of that team also, shares Medalist honors (+4) with Leroy on Medalist Thursday. They easily win the FBT and Scott finishes the sweep by winning the CTP. Scott earns the coveted 'Bud's Boys Golden Recliner Award'. He sits back and watches his team sweep all 5 events while his number actually goes down. That's a perfect day in BB's world.


Doc's team didn't win, but he went home with a consolation prize.



Friday March 15

Only 7 BB's played on a raw and chilly day. Roger Medals with a +7, his 2nd consecutive +7 that makes him the favorite of the Match Play tourney. Doc wins CTP, making him the only multiple winner in March, to prevent the sweep.

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...

New Years News Bits- Opening Day 2025 We have coverage of the first two days of the new 2025 season along with a look back at 2024. Plenty of pictures from several different contributors of the winter storm to pass your time. Maybe we should throw in a couple bucks and make your prediction of when the next Bud's Boys round will be played. It is good to be back up and running with my new computer. The geek salesman assured me this computer will be much faster. Honestly though, I seem to type just as slow as before. Thursday Lunch Proposal How about we meet again this Thursday (11:00) if there is no golf. We had a good turnout this past week and I propose we do it again this Thursday. Any thoughts welcome, otherwise, pass the word. Thursday Jan 2 Thursday January 2nd was the official start to BB's 2025 season. Doc, Mikey, and Roger squared off against Randy, Glen, and Scott. Scott wins the first Thursday Medalist of the new year, and it leads his team to a FBT sweep. Doc wins the...

Bud's Boys Look Back On 2024 January through June Remember Lunch Every Thursday until Golf Returns! Player of the Year Awarded! To say KZ was surprised is an understatement! 2023 POY Raymond makes the presentation. KZ's resume includes: Money Winner Net Money Winner Most Improved (+4) Medal Leader Thursday Medali$t Leader 20 game winning streak January   Opening Day 2024 was Tuesday the 2nd. Roger wins his second straight CTP but fails to join Butch and Floyd on Wednesday the 3rd. Shelly notches her 3rd career hole-in-one on Jan 11. We had 19-day layoff from the 11th to the 30th, eating was all we had to do. February Rodney wins his first CTP of the season with this gem on #18. Randy gets some revenge on hole #10 by holing out from 150 yards for an eagle on Feb 11. Feb 13th was not a Friday, but it produced a memorable day nonetheless. Known as the scorecard debacle, this story will live on for years to come in BB's lore. It deserves a little space today.  These are the 4 p...
