Only my body was cold

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these golfers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds. By only changing a single word from the US Postal Service creed, I aptly described this past Wednesday.

On a rather cool fall evening, we needed to make a few last minute phone calls to get us to past the ten players required to have Mens' Night. When all was said and done we had eleven golfers. Good job Jason, Scott, Robin, Wes, Brett, Neuf, Brad, Ron A., Denny, Hubey, and Stephen.

Once we started playing it actually felt a little warmer out. I am not saying it was getting hot or anything, but many of us stopped wearing gloves in between shots and I am pretty sure at least one person removed their toque. Once we added a bit of antifreeze to our blood, we played almost enthusiastically, although extra holes were not an option for anyone.

Jason Gorrell and Brad Benton teamed up on three holes, winning $20 skins on #1 and #2 and another $28.50 for #6. Other skins went to Brett Griffin / Robin Kimpinski ($20 on #7), Dennis Green / Jason Neufeld ($49.50 on #8), and Stephen David ($20 on #9).

Hubey had closest on #5 and Stephen was closest on #9. Neither they nor any other golfer scored a deuce.

The forecast looks promising for this week so come out if you can. Two more Mens' Nights and we hit 20 for the season which is as good a measure of success as we have.
