July 7th Senior Men 10:00AM game.  To prepare for the Hat Creek matches where everyone plays from the gold tees, players who normally play from the white tees moved up to the gold to get some experience.  There were at least two career best rounds…Bristol Martin shot 70 and George Burton shot 74.  If anyone else had a career best let me know so it can be included here.

Excitement at the Sunday game (June 26th)…Jimmy Allen had 6 double bogeys but still managed to shoot an incredible 83.   Jimmy’s 7 man team, with Leon Plaster as Captain, won best ball and points by 8.  Congratulations to the team!

On Tuesday May 17th George Burton had one of his best rounds ever.  He shot 39 on the front and 39 on the back for a 78.  Based on the 11:30 game format he was +8 on his points which won him first place,  He barely edged out Hebert Gee who just returned from the Flordia tour!  Herbert was +6 and came in second.  Congratulations George and Herbert!

On Saturday May 14th, Wayne Adams provided the hightlight of the 11:30 game by eagling the 6th hole.  If Wayne continues to dominate this page we may have to change the name to “The Wayne Adams Golfing Journal”!  Congratulations Wayne!

On Tuesday May 10th, Wayne Adams put on a real show at the 11:30 game.  He shot a 40 on the front and proceeded to shoot the lights out on the back.  He bogeyed holes 15 and 17 and pared the rest for a round of 77.  I think he was real close to shooting his age.  Congratulations Wayne!
