This Weeks News
The 2024 season is now officially underway and if we had scorecards we could actually keep track of how things are going.
The feature on the web page that allows you to preprint a scorecard for your match has been updated, one week too late perhaps. You can print a card for your match (just in case the course runs out). The preprinted cards from the web will show which holes strokes are given on. Warning: The yardage on the cards is based on the older tee box arrangement. Please make sure that you follow the instructions on the scorecard tab and only use the pulldown menu's to locate the golfer's name.
Tee boxes can be confusing, especially if you change them to a system that is intended to speed up play but ultimately just causes confusion. This is what you should know. The red tees are gone so women now play from the gold (or yellow) tees. Players that play from the senior tees now play from the green tees. All others play from the blue tees with the exception of holes 4, 12 and 16. The exceptions are intended to allow those golfers to clear streams with their drives and subsequently speed up play.
Speeding up play is something that you should always look to do. We are slow.
League Leaders
It's too early in the season to call a winner but it looks like it will be either Ron Strootman and Bill Kelly or Jim O'Brien and Ralph Crescitelli. These teams both jumped to an incredible 1 stroke lead over Vince Cimino and Lou D'Agostina. If it's not them it will probably be someone else.
Survivor Golf
It came down to a card match between the teams of Pat Eves and Charlie Eves versus Eric MacMinn and Martin Cassidy. Eric and Martin won the card match and Pat and Charlie earned the early boot.
Golfing With The Stars
Gotta love it when the number one star is me with a 33 net. Well you don't have to but I do. Ron Mangini claimed stardom with a 34 net and Steve Nedzwecky, Dave Goodman and Vince Cimino all earned star status for week 2 with a 35 net.
On the other side of the spectrum Robyn Sadowski and Martin Cassidy schmucked in with a 47 net, while John Himes and Chuck Callender endured posting 45 net.
Secret Scorecard
The 13th hole was the secret scorecard hole for week 1 and we had a lot of good scores. Clocking in with a par were; Jodi Hornyak, Ron Strootman, Jim O'Brien, Vicne Cimino, Lou D'Agostino, Ron Mangini and Eric MacMinn.
There was a full moon out this week but we really didn't appreciate it as we needed to be indoors due to rapidly declining temperatures.
The new scarecrows that they installed to scare away the geese are very realistic and very frightening.
