Here's to Waywayseecappo!

 

I was trying to think about what to write today and wasn't having any luck. I have written lots about the weather over the years and of late, and I am done with that. I could do another hole-in-one feature given the size of the three pots but that has also received previous attention. Then it came to me...I should acknowledge a group of guys who have made our Men's Night even better.

For the past three years, we have been fortunate to have great representation from Waywayseecappo. They came on one Wednesday, had a positive experience, and then kept returning. Every single week we have 5-10 visitors who start a little early, play Men's Night, and then often get another nine holes in until darkness falls.

Some weeks, half of the players at our Men's Night are from Waywayseecappo. There are several who come regularly and some who come occasionally. The one constant is Charles McKay who seems to be there every week, taking skins from his younger companions and ordering chicken wings to go at the end of the evening.

All these Waywayseecappo boys are good golfers and, more important, great guys. Everyone thinks the same. So at the risk of missing someone who has visited previously, I would like to do a shout-out to Charles McKay, Terry Brandon, Myles Shingoose, Dawson Tanner, Dylan Tanner, John Tanner, Eugene Tanner. Brent Cloud, Chad Tanner, Trevor Wilson, Randy Brandon Sr. & Jr., Logan Tanner, Donovin Tanner, Montanna Sutherland, Ash Brandon, Branden Tanner, Ash Tanner, and Dion Brandon.

Last week we had 29 golfers. Not surprisingly, 9 or 10 were from Waywayseecappo. 

Nathan Maynes had a night. He score the only two deuces and pocketed $54.38 for his efforts. He also was closest on #5, hitting his tee shot to about 18 inches. Finally, he won a $26.26 skin on the same hole pairing with Cubby Bartram. Brad Benton just edged out Nathan for closest to on #9.

Five other skins went on Wednesday. Winners included Theoren Hunter/Brent Cloud ($79.39 on #1), Robin Kimpinski/Stephen David ($41.26 on #2 and $67.89 on #8), Charles McKay/Trevor Wilson ($67.89 on #6), and Jason Gorrell/Blake Hunter ($26.26 on #7).

Currently, Brad Benton and Robin Kimpinski lead the ringer board at -4, followed by a group of five others at -2.

There are a couple of upcoming tournaments to note. Our fundraiser is on Friday, July 8 and there is still room for teams of 4. Then there is the Horse Race on Saturday, July 23.

One final thing...below is a pic of the ball that Brett Griffin was using on Wednesday. It looked like this for several holes and wobbled when he putted it.
