Recap Week 19

I have posted the cost of the year end tournament. Click on the picture to enlarge.
Week 19 had Easton CC revert back to fast greens as you found out if you were above the hole on 6, a 3 jack was almost a given. Ed Finn had the round of the day, fresh off his new putter he bought on Ebay, arriving just in time for his round, went out and had 3 birdies, none that lived, but collected on individual, team, and CTP. He over shadowed his playing partner and leader of the tribe LB who shot an impressive round of 78 and did not collect a skin. The ever sneaky Walsh watched as these two battled it out halving hole after hole only to slip in when they both faltered. Murphy has decided to change his swing just in time for the year end. A good idea, I think not. The game is hard enough and we try all summer to get a swing that works. Oh well, good luck with that.
One week left to this wacky season and I'm not ready to go into hibernation, but as I found out last night it gets dark pretty early, it didn't stop Lyons and myself of playing the 18th hole in the dark with the bats flying overhead.

Recap Week 18

When not on his cell phone, Jim Thompson was turning in an impressive + 5 night. Who was he on the phone with, Butch Harmon? And finally, after 18 weeks, we have everyone on the money board, as Don Dillon is off the schnide by collecting $10 as Jim's partner. A good night by Peter Jaffe (+ 3 and a birdie on 3) was for naught as he had no help from his partner and his bird was covered. It was also nice to see Jerry Berke have a good night +3. Rick Walsh with an impressive CTP on 6 and the bird, but it was smashed by the steady Mike McNeice. Mike has requested that the league be played on the back nine, as he had another 37 on the way in. Rich McKenna with another ho-hum 17 points. He's a points machine. Frank Stefanick and Dave Peters continue to move up the money list with birds on 2 and 7, respectively.

Two nights left, and then the year-end on Sunday, 10/11 at 11:30 AM. You must let us know if you can't play. Cost and details to follow soon.

Also, our sympathies go out to John and Ed MacNeil for a recent family loss.

Recap Week 17

The year is winding down and a number of league members had their best rounds of the year with the greens starting to get back into shape. Jim Lyons had a personal best of 76 followed by Rich McKenna who just kept piling up the pars to shoot a 1 over 72. Nine hole candidates had Billy Karas shoot 1 over he also broke 80, Stefanick was 2 over and the last two were Halon and Peters. Thompson continues to struggle as the left right...left right army golf is not working. The year end is approaching and we are going to need a head count for catering purposes, so if you can't make it on October 11, let us know as the league is charged for the meal. The price is still to be determined.

Recap Week 16

I knew driving to the course this was going to be a weird one. Route 495 had a plane crash in Mansfield detouring my travel to Easton. I get to the course and the greens have been irrigated and the kids from Stoughton, just as I expected, lined the porch delaying our league from getting out at our usual time. I had only one thing in mind and that was to get a birdie knowing with the putting greens filled with holes and sand that one birdie would be enough to cash in on this carryover week. I lipped out on 4 and there went my chance. Larosa birdied the 6th with the pin in back and that looked like a sure winner only to have the red hot Mike McNeice birdie it also. Walsh managed to sink his 7 footer on 2, but with McKenna yet to play the hole that too was knocked out. Bradley's putt on 9 was looking real good only to have one of the little holes take it off course and just miss. That left my partner from the Judge Smail's Cup TJ with the only birdie that held up on 9 to take home the carryover money and vault him into a commanding lead on the money board.
Round of the week goes to Mike McNeice who didn't let the greens bother him as he shoots 78 and collects top individual and team honors. Walsh again lucks out with a partner who carries him into the winners circle. Oh did I mention there was a full moon which might account for these cwayzee happenings.
The Stoughton kids are something we have to deal with the rest of the way, so if you can get out early I suggest you play before 3, just make sure you play with someone in the league.
