WEEK 3 CTP:       6TH HOLE        


     And I thought we were bad last week. Even after quotas went down after last week's scores, we actually played worse this week with only nine individuals exceeding quota and only six teams besting their number, with no team better than +2.  

   Rookie Mike Wall kicked off his SIGL career with a solid +3 that took 1st Individual honors. We had a traffic jam at +2 with Gormley, Regan, Silvia, Paone, and Greg Willard for 2nd place and Scott Silvia will prevail in a card-off with his fine birdie on 1. 

    Another rookie, Jamie Gormley played well at +2, and as an alternate, was paired with Brian Murphy's even score to take 1st Team at +2. 

   We had another pile-up for 2nd Team with Silvia/Doonan, Regan and Dasaro, Mark Nolan/Szczurko, Raynard/Sullivan, and L. Silva and G. Wiilard all at +1. And the team of Chris Regan and Steve Dasaro will collect envelopes for prevailing in the tiebreaker. 

   There were eight birdie attempts that found the hole, and three will share the pot. Steve Danieli overcame a tough pin and landed a 3 on 3, Dan Svirsky birdied the 6th, and yet another rookie has made quite a splash this year and will add $40 to his winnings when Chris Regan had the only bird on the 9th, a hole that is usually humbled by SIGL sharpshooters. But so far this year, we're the gang that couldn't shoot straight. Birdies that did not live were 
Shannon and Silvia on the 1st and McDermott, Lozzi, and G. Willard on 4. 

   The only notables that did not cash this week are Gregs Paone and Willard, both at +2, and Mr. Paone will be again be highpointer, this week with 15. 

  And although it is not part of league play, and unfortunately there is currently no back nine skins pool, congratulations to the ageless Bobby Bourne who notched his 5th career hole-in-one with an ace on the 16th! Fuzzy Zoeller once said, "Happiness is walking down the fairway with your putter," but even more so, happiness is walking up to the green without your putter. Way to go, Bob! 

   I am sure that many of you were not sleeping well wondering what happened last week to the CTP marker and tape. Well, it was eventually found by Easton CC personnel discarded in the woods. (It never ends.) 

     Easton CC has requested that when signing in, please inform the clerk whether you are an Easton member or not. With 60 players and with separate member/nonmember lists, this will speed up the 
check in process. Also, the team pairings list, normally tacked to the post on the porch will be at the starters desk at the first tee. 

   Don't forget to deposit scorecards into the box in the pro shop. The pro shop closes around 6 PM. So if you finish after that, please e-mail me your results, with points earned (not plus/minus) and any birdies. 

   Sorry about all these complications, but they are beyond our control, or Easton CC's control, and hopefully some of these restrictions will be eased as the season progresses. Right now, we are forced to have a stripped down version of our usual Tuesday golf experience: no fraternizing before or after a round, no clubhouse, no food or drink, no CTP, no back nine skins pool, etc. Yeah, it's golf, but it ain't the same.  

  And finally, with restrictions on in-office medical exams, I had my first remote tele-health physical with my doctor. And it didn't go too bad. He recommended that I cut down on cigars but increase my Clorox consumption. And if you think a regular rectal exam is a pain, try shoving an I-Phone up your ass!

  See you next Tuesday.   

                 NO, WE  HAVE A NEW MODEL
