 WEEK 15 CTP           6TH HOLE

  Well, for at least the third week in a row, we had meager attendance, with only 41 players teeing it up. Is there something more interesting on Tuesdays that I'm missing out on? Again, scores were bunched heavily right around quota, with 33 out of 41 golfers within two points of their number. Of the limited amount of standouts, Mark Nolan and Alex Turchette led the way and battled it out for 1st Individual at +5, with counselor Nolan prevailing by virtue of his par on the first. 

 Both of these leaders had no help from their respective partners, so Team prizes were wide open. The hot Lenny Lima stepped up and took control with a solid +3, and all that good clean living paid off as Len needed a partner, and fortuitously drew Mr. Nolan and his +5 as an alternate to proudly take 1st Team at +8. 

 Dan Szczurko was one of the few who had a really good night at +4 and his partner Dana Willard held on at even to take 2nd Team at +4, beating out Mark Nolan (+5) and Eric Aronson (-1) at +4 because a 4 and a 5 beat a pair of doubles every time. (5th Hole)

  Rick Keating was out there early posting a 19'8" mark for CTP on 4 and apparently not even Mike Hunt was able to get it closer, so Mr. Keating will be rewarded with $25. 

  With the greens having been recently punched, it was tough to get putts to roll true, and accordingly, only five birdie attempts found the target. And for the second week in a row, every bird lived, making it 12 unsmashed birdies over the last two weeks. So getting paid will be Wayne Musgrove (2), Mark Nolan (3), Rick Walsh (6), Bill Doonan (8), and Automatic Steve Lozzi (9).  

 After a week off from the B9 skins pool, we had a healthy 22 entrants this week but only 4 bids were successful. The 13th was smashed as expected, leaving only two birdies to split the pot. Mike McNeice made up for a mediocre front nine with a crisp 37 on the back and a surviving skin on 12, and Terry Thompson will be rewarded for an outstanding night with a $55 birdie on 14. 

 There were only six players who posted a number greater than +2 and all six of them will be compensated with prize money of one form or another. Therefore, there are no notables except for money winners. Highpointers this week were Bill Doonan, Terry Thompson and Bob Bourne at 15 points each. 

 Odds and ends: 1) The year-end tourney is on Sunday, October 13th, with an 8:00 am shotgun start. 2) Easton CC members: you must sign the SIGL sign-in sheet before playing. Easton needs this in order to cross-reference cart fees, etc. 3) We are getting some cards again without quota points added up. If you do not record total points for each golfer or record a plus/minus result for each golfer, then your card will become a discard, and an alternate will take your spot.  

 And finally, our deep condolences to long-time friend Bob Loring on the recent loss of his mother. And also, we wish for a speedy recovery for Mrs. Saul Payne, who was recently on the losing end of a bicycle vs. pick-up truck incident. 

 See you next Tuesday.
