     WEEK 13 CTP:      6TH HOLE

   Well, it seems that both Easton and SIGL are at the top of their games, as the course is in superb shape, and SIGL golfers, though not in superb shape, are at least playing some very good golf.

     Last week we had a season high 19 points posted by Steve Lozzi, but that mark did not last long as Jim Lyons, fresh off a four day golf trip, returned to his home course to card a fantastic (career low?) 74, with 20 league quota points on the front. Jimmy, who was really hitting his drives, will easily take 1st Individual with a +9. Also posting a very fine round is Terry Moore at +5, and he will be rewarded with 2nd place.

     And for the first time all year, the outright 1st Individual happened to be partnered with the outright 2nd Ind., so, if you know your math, that means that Jim and Terry will also gladly take 1st Team honors.

     Johnny MacNeil continues to have a hot hand, and this week his +4 will go nicely with his partner, the resurgent Chris Sullivan, who chipped in with his own +4 to take 2nd Team accolades.

     Martin Enright just keeps marching along with good golf every week, and this time he stands out with his fine approach on 4 to 12'9" which stood up all day, and will earn Marty some CTP cash.

     We had a respectable 11 birdies for the league nine, and four were lucky enough to survive, and earn cash. Steve Peterson, who we know had at least a putt of 12'10" sunk a nice bird on 4, this humble hacker striped his best approach of the year on the 5th hole and converted the 8-footer. Star of the day Jim Lyons added to his stash with an impressive birdie on 7, and for the first time all year, the 8th hole was not totally subjugated by SIGL sharpshooters, so semi-star of the day, Johnny Mac will get paid for his sole birdie on the hole. As usual, 2 (McGarry, Lyons) and 9 (Moore, Aronson, Tracy) were easily covered, and the 6th hole also did not survive (Szczurko, Doonan).

    In addition to the money-winners above, the hard-luck Dan Szczurko continues to shine every week, as he posted another outstanding +4. And for the second week in a row, Dan's birdie on the tough 6th hole was smashed. Eddie MacNeil, trying to keep up with Brother John, posted his own fine +3, as did Rick Keating, Tom Nolan, Rich White, and Bob Eaton. As noted, J. Lyons was the easy highpointer at 20.

   The back nine birdie pool continues to grow in popularity, and this week there were no surviving birds among the seven sunk. Next week there will be $105 carried over for those who were in the pool this week.

     A couple of things that might need reminding: 1) Preferred lies in your own fairways only. That means, otherwise, do not touch or move the ball, unless allowed under the rules (relief, etc.) 2) All balls worth a point or better MUST be holed out. Any player who takes credit for a point when not holing out will be disqualified for that round. 3) We are again getting unintelligible cards, this week having one card submitted with no names, but only a single initial for each golfer as the only clue as who was on the card. You are playing in a competition each week with 60 plus golfers. If you can't submit a card with your name on it, then you will not be a part of that night's competition.        

   See you next Tuesday.
