Revenge of the Dummy

Last week, the infamous dummy card struck again. It presents itself when we have an odd number of golfers. Sometimes it is helpful and allows someone to win a skin on their own. Other times it isn’t so kind. Such was the case on Wednesday.

Jason Gorrell had a great two on the par 4 first hole. He paired with someone who birdied for a net 5. Normally -3 on a single hole would be a guaranteed win. However, Jason was also the middle score of 37 golfers. As the middle score, we replicated his card and called it the “Dummy”. Jason’s card went to the low pot and his dummy went to the high pot where it also paired with someone who had a birdie on 1. So the two combined 5’s pushed.

On a positive note, the first hole wasn't worth much...just $23.13. Also, Jason also split the $69.38 deuce pot with Keith Martin.

Closest to the holes were Montana Sutherland on #5 and Scott Maynes on #9. 

Skins went on three holes. Winners included Jay Bell / Logan Tanner ($48.13 on #3), Dale Martin / Darcy Kowalchuk ($48.13 on #4), and Theoren Hunter / Sonny Blackbird ($48.13 on # 8.

There are five weeks remaining to get scores entered on the ringer board. If you don't get scores in for particular holes you automatically get assigned triple bogies.

Our annual horse race tournament is Saturday, August 14. We had to move from our regular day in July due to uncertainty about the health orders. We recognize that this may create conflicts for some people. Anyone interested in signing up for the Horse Race is asked to call or text Stephen David at 847-0161.
