Here we go--we have our own blog. I will use this site to post news about the the TGIF league. Book mark the site and check it out for updates. You will also be able to post your own comments here.
Remember, facts may not always be exact. I'll do my best to get things right based upon what is on the score cards, or what I hear after matches. Now and then, I will make stuff up. I will never poke fun at anyone who I don't know can take the poking. And if by chance I offend anyone, I apologize in advance. Will avoid that at all cost.
Here are a few highlights from matches played Friday, April 30th.
Carlin/Stokes Match: Wayne and Jim both played well. Wayne shot a net 34 and Jim shot a net 35. They split the matches 10 points evenly, 5-5. Carol and Lina went back and forth over the 1st 4 holes the Lina put the hammer down, won 3 of the last 5 holes to put the match away.
Bunn/Thiel Match: Steve birdied #8 (nice job, Steve) but lost march 5 1/2 to 3 1/2 as Mick put a hurtin' on Steve. Sylvia matched Mick's match score. Sylvia scored a nice par 5 on #3 but didn't win the hole. Donna tied Sylvia with gross 6, net 5.
Barnes/Van Houten: Dale won 6/4 over Phil, and Cher won 6/4 over Mary. Nice pars by Dale on #3 and #6, hardest holes on front nine.
Garrison/Pare: Bob Pare was on fire, shooting a 40 gross, 34 net. Jeff birdied #3 then Bob poured in a net 3 on top of Jeff's natural bird. Jeff and Bob both parred #6 but again, Bob got a stroke and won the hole with a net 3. Bob went on to win the match 6/4. Kathy Pare won the match with Sandy 7/3, despite the four pars Sandy scored. Kathy had a nice par on #7.
Forsthoefel/Porter: Not sure why Dave and Arlene were so upset but they came to O'Bannon to put a whooping on somebody. Unfortunately Bill and Thelma Porter were the victims. The Forsthoefel's won the match 16/4. Ouch! Get out of Dave and Arlene's way--they are not taking any hostages this year! Arlene had a nice par on #6.
Spatz/Downing: Fred Spatz was very eager to have the powerhouse Shaut team substitute for Deanna and him. Little did he know Dave would lay down and let Jim roll over him like a steamroller smoothing the new pavement out on Route 48! Jim and Dave's match started out fine until Jim decided enough was enough and took 4 holes in a row from Dave. Dave was done, with nothing to look forward to but dinner! Kathy gave Nancy a better match, losing 6 1/2 to 3 1/2, but she couldn't overcome the distraction of Dave crying and muttering to himself as Jim beat him like a rug. Sorry Fred and Deanna, look for better subs next time.
Jordahl/Mueller: Barb and Sarah had a close match. Barb edged out Sarah 6/4. Though both Barb and Sarah spent some of the winter in the slightly warmer south, it seems Barb came to the match a little more rested and serene. Marlow and Brad had a close match and Marlow came out on top, winning 6/4. Brad could have won, should have won, had he made a par putt on #8. He used a lame excuse that a ball rolling across the green near him as he was putting distracted him and made him miss the putt. Come on, Brad, you need to be tougher than that. In desperation, after the match, Brad claimed he had been hit by the ball on 8, showed everyone a fake cut, covered up with a huge gauze pad, and further claimed that the Commissioner was the cause of the injury. Brad, come to your senses, work on your putting and concentration, don't blame others for your weakness, and faking an injury, come on!
Closest to the Pin:
#5, Jeff Garrison
#7, Kathy Pare
Each will win a sleeve of balls.
