Recap Week 9

I've come to the conclusion I'm not a good rain player. 17 brave souls went out to give it a go while mother nature refuses to give us a decent day to play. The MacNeils play like they are late for an appointment as they were left to play as a twosome and dared the lightning to strike them zipping around the course in record time. The shot of the day goes to Frank Larosa on the 5th hole, after hitting his second shot into the brook took a drop and holed out from 135 yards for a ho hum par. The 7th hole saw a little wackiness as my group got to the tee when we see Larry's group drive up after stopping for the lightning wanted to finish their round. A new member took exception to this and doesn't know the rule that LB is the leader of our little cult and to step aside and shut your big yapper.
Stephanick's group were determined to play after missing the last non rain-out and are glad they did as Stephanick's birdie on 9 took the birdie pool and Moser seemed to like the rain, had his best round of the year to take top and team honors to get on the money board. This group played extra holes and petered out on 15, two of them layed up on the 14, which is not a good move on a par 3.
A happy 50th birthday goes out to a good guy Rich McKenna who still scores like a 30 year old
(and his golf game ain't bad either.)
