Week 1 – finally in the books!

Well in spite of weather forecasts that once again looked glum we managed to get week 1 played… Lenny/Derrick played on Thursday to help alleviate the “3 teams need golf carts and only 2 work” problem (solution to that is forthcoming) … note that we’re finally catching up on mowing… and perhaps we’ll have a few dry weeks (This week promises to be sunny and near 90 degrees!) as the season progresses… sure hope so!

On the near pin / skins front Bill Drew managed to snag one of each… his birdie on #5 and his near pin on #7 earns him a cool $24.75 (even though he three putted #7 for a bogie… should that even count?) Mitch took 2 skins ($13.50) on his first two holes and Mike Lor grabbed a skin ($6.75) with the only par on hole 4.

The Ghosts eek out a close win vs Lenny/Derrick – week 2 they’ll be up against
The original “Giant Killers” win a close match when they put up 2 points on the 7th hole
Bill Drew reasserts his title as “Nick Malaxos Sandbagger of the Year” posting a season best 5 under par net 24 … who knows what he’ll shoot this week?
In a rematch of last year’s championship 9 hole playoff the Hulls turned the tide on the defending champs with a one point victory. Mitch came within a whisker of an Eagle 2 on his first hole of the season and shot an even par gross 29 net 25 that Mike just couldn’t keep up with. Gary paddled like crazy to keep the match close but in the end the Hulls win 9.5 – 8.5
Andrew/Jerrod take over first place in week 1 with a resounding 11.5 – 6.5 win… Andrew hopped on the bogey train carding 7 straight until he parred holes 8 and 9 to finish gross 7 over net 31
