This Will Be Brief


There were 21 golfers last week. The number was lower than previous weeks. This dip was likely due to a weird weather system that went through earlier in the day.

Skins went on three holes. Winners included Logan Tanner/Pete Ostash ($30.63 on #5), Phil Ostash/Cubby Bartram ($112.61 on #6), and Stephen David/Jason Gorrell ($20.00 on #9).

Phil had the low round of the eening with a 38.

Closest to the pins were Logan on #5 and Brad Benton on #9.

A Big Deuce Pot

Neuf is the Frnch word for 9. That is fitting given what happened last Wednesday. On the ninth hole, Jason Neufeld scored the only two of the evening, and the first in several weeks. For his effort, he claimed what was one of the largest deuce pots in our history...$174.38. Neuf also paired with Trevor Wilson to get the skin on the same hole which was valued at $58.13. 

Despite it cooling off rather quickly, there were 29 golfers last week. Skins went on five holes. In addition to #9, winners included Ash Brandon/Zach Bartam ($20.00 on #1), Brad Benton/Blake Hunter ($66.26 on #2), and John Tanner/Jason Gorrell ($37.50 on #3 and $58.13 on #4).

Closest to the pins were Cubby Bartam on #5 and Chad Tanner on #9. Despite hitting the best shot on #5, Cubby ended with a score of 5 which was indicative more of the pin position than his putting.

Great Weather Is On Its Way

Last Wednesday was an odd one in terms of weather. It started out a little overcast then there was a storm warning. It rained from about 4:20 - 5:00 pm then the sky completely cleared. We still had 27 golfers, many of whom waited until late to decide if they were playing.

The official round belonged to Chad Tanner who shot a masterful 32. His group members said that he had a birdie putt on every hole. Surprisingly Chad did not win a skin with his partner Robin Kimpinski.

The only skins went on #1 and 5, both by the team of Charles McKay and Terry Susinksi. They picked up $20 on the first hole and $40.63 on the fifth.

Closest to the pins were Charles on #5 and Myles Shingoose on #9.

The forecast for this week, including Men's Night, looks great at this point.

And Here We Go Again

The first Men's Night of the year was as ideal as one could imagine. The weather was very nice, reaching a high of 22 Celsius. The course was in very good condition for just coming out of winter. And we had 38 golfers, which was an excellent turnout for opening night.

Skins went on two holes but one of them was a big one with Darcy Kowalchuk and Joe Shwaluk winning $191.27 on hole #3. The other skin went on #1 with Cody Cornwall and Ethan Hunter claiming $52.51.
Closest to the holes were Cody Cornwall on #5 and Trevir Wilson on #9. There were no deuces.

The Ringer Board started last week and runs until August 23. The goal is to shoot the lowest 9-hole score by recording what you think will be your best score you can on each hole over the course of the summer. You may record as many scores as you want from a given night but once you place a score on your ringer board it is locked in and cannot be changed.   You may even choose to enter no scores if you have a challenging evening for scoring.
