Fore!

2/28/2021- I'll start by welcoming 5 new members who played yesterday in the wind. Russ Hammond and Colin Roberts joined our club last month and participated in their first tournament yesterday. We also had three members play and join the club yesterday; Dave Westerman, Lance Reginato, and Aaon Knutson. Welcome Russ, Colin, Dave, Aaron, and Lance! Thank you for joining our club. That gives us 74 members which is fantastic!

Congratulations go to Matt Quinn, Larry Goodwin, Ramon Fonseca, and Todd Weatherly who finished in the top four in the zone qualifier and will represent out club in Monterey in just six short weeks.

We had a fantastic turnout yesterday with 42 players! I can't say the same for the conditions as we had wind up to 20 miles an hour constantly throughout the day. As a consequence, the scores were pretty high. In fact the best net score was 3 over by Eric Thatcher. Ramon and Brian Wohlford managed to shoot under 70 gross with a 67 and 69 respectively.

Eric won the 1st flight with his score. The second flight went to Curt Eby with a 4 over 68. Paul Emery and Rich Perry shared 1st place in the 3rd flight with a 4 over 68. Congratulations guys!

The next tournament takes place on March 13 in hopefully more ideal conditions. It's called the Lone Ranger, in honor and memory of Bill Eaton who cursed me out after playing in this tournament a few years ago. I might have others curse me out once I explain the format.

It's a four man team and your team score will be two net scores for each hole. Which scores will you take? You'll take one best score. The other score is the score that the Lone Ranger receives. On every hole, one player will be the Lone Ranger as his net score must be the one you take. (If the Lone Ranger scores your team's best score, you can use those for both scores on the hole). I'll have scorecards prepared for you. It'll be fun!

I have the sign up sheet at home so you can email or text me if you want to play. Have a good rest of your day!

Matt
