Recap Year End

The year end is where you can make a lot of cash and cashing in big time was Frank Larosa who shot an incredible round of even par and collected 1st place money and tally that with birdie, closest to the pin and individual totaled $370 and a run away winner of this years top money leader. Ed Finn had a great round also, shooting 75 and he came in 2nd collecting $220 for the day and what looked liked every other envelope was going his way. Rich McKenna needed the most points needing to get 37 of them and he did. The MacNeil brothers both had good days with +6 over their quota points, as for the rest of us a few were close or just over what they needed, but for the most part we stunk. The course as usual was in great shape with lightning fast greens, which caused many a 3 putt if you were on the wrong side of the hole.
I enjoyed meeting all the new members and want to thank all that contributed to the gift given to Larry and myself. I'd like to also thank our friendly neighborhood bartender OBO for keeping the 19th hole open when most would have thrown us out. The dreaded winter months are ahead and the count down begins until we tee it up in April for the 2011 SIGL season. LB will conjure up the newsletter sometime in March letting you know when the official start date is. Please let us know if you are not playing.
Tick Tock....Tick Tock.....See you all next year.

See Frank LaRosa

Please be on time for your tee time. Sometimes, they run ahead of schedule so be there early. Unlike previous years, we are not going to reshuffle groups in order to accommodate late comers. (Pulling into the parking lot at 11:14 for an 11:16 tee time is not on time.)

If your name is listed above, and you are not playing, you must let us know now, or we will have to pay for you. Excused absences: 1) Untimely death, 2) Loss of limb that would prevent you from swinging a golf club. Other than that, all no-shows will be billed. Call me at 508-742-5355 (Larry) if you can't play.

All regular-season rules apply. Preferred lie in your own fairway. Relief, including line of sight relief, for driving range and fence.

All putts that are for a quota point must be holed. Protect the field.

Newcomers: The team you are playing with is not your scoring team. The list of scoring teams is currently buried in a hermetically-sealed Funk and Wagnalls jar in my backyard, and will be unearthed on game day. When you finish your round, the scoring teams will be posted in the clubhouse.

Good luck to all.

Recap Week 19

The 19th week featured our 1st eagle of the year and it came on the 9th hole by one of our Judge Smails Cup champions. Fitzpatrick stepped to the 9th hole saying I need an eagle to make my quota and with the wind at his back tees off lands his ball just in the rough just short of the left trap, he then takes out an ill-advised 3 wood from the deep rough only to dribble it out onto the fairway, leaving him 160 out. Miracles do happen and it came when he took out his 6 iron and he fades it in to the front pin location, it hits softly and with the words of Bill Murry ringing it's in the hole the eagle was landed for a much needed 8 points. Elsewhere, McKenna plays like a mere mortal on the front with his lowest total of the year and still manages to break 80. Lyons was drowning his sorrows at the bar as the high school kids again took over the tee, only to be rescued by his playing partners who showed up early and raced to play the back first and just beat darkness by finishing the front before the sun set. Mercado comes into the clubhouse with a +5 and tells LB that this will win top honors for the week, LB says we'll see when all the cards are turned in, Mercado says in his non threatening way, no this will win this week. The threat worked for top and team honors. There is good news on the tournament front, there are no new changes. Playing partners to be posted next week.

Recap Week 18

The calendar reads it's September and with that kids go back to school which in turn creates havoc with the SIGL having to deal with the high school kids taking our tee times. I sit there and watch stiff after stiff step up and take mighty practice swings only to dribble it off the tee or shank it sideways. This was not a good day as the temperature was reading in the high 90's. The back nine was not an option as Easton was top dressing the greens and was not playable. Thanks Mark Lombardi! I don't usual drink on the course but with my playing partners having a contest on who could drink the most I found myself joining them. The cart girl was not far off and was told to stay close. Murphy was seen heading to the packy but before doing so he wrestled in the parking lot to take off his sweaty shirt to put a dry one on. The birdie pool been vedy vedy good to Barry lately as he took down the whole pot 2 weeks ago and splits it this week with McKenna.
The year end tournament time has been pushed back to 11:00 using the front and back and is no longer a shot gun start. This should be the last change, but do stay tuned.
