Thursday Shot of the Day

Here we go again. A new day. A new challenge. Charlie Sheetz has a commanding lead in the Individual Handicapped Tournament but a good day by any of several contenders could see the trophy slip away from Charlie. No predictions from me though Charlie has new confidence in his big driver after his practice sessions these last two days. (Unlike the Charlie over in the Tuesday Men's League, this Charlie thrives on getting out and playing at least once a day and on occasion a second outing in the evening.) Another lovely day in store for all of us so no complaints there and no excuses either. Got the chipping and putting contest to start things off this morning; then golf; then a feed. So, get your britches on, saddle up and head on out to the greens just north of town and don't forget to pack your A game.

Update 2:45:

-Charlie Sheetz fires a net 30 and hangs on to win the Individual Handicapped Tournament with a 57.
-2nd place - Bob Norris with a 59.
-great tournament for these two guys with the small stature and the big sticks.
-Putting contest: Al Kavanaugh stepped up right after Mike Anderson had put his putt in the lead and rolled one closer to win.
-Chipping contest: Jack Butcher hit the stick and robbed Kenny Hudson of the chipping prize.

Update 10pm:

-Helen Streepy subbed with me and put on quite a performance, making several lengthy puts and hitting the ball solid all day long.
-the Pam blackberry cobbler was delicious, as were the Trinkle homemade cupcakes; hope you all enjoyed the array of food brought in by you all.
-the team of Rayhill and Hudson continue to trash their opposition.
-sharpshooters for the event included Mike Bird on #3 (I used a Rex Hudson trick - land short and run it on); Bob Norris on #7; and John Chapman on both #8 and #9.
-Charlie remains on top of the individual standings and John Chapman moves from fourth to second.
-low net team score belonged to Sam Potts and Bob Norris with a 58.
-George Foster and Bob Norris shared the low net round with 28's.
-as usual, good stuff.
