Play was on Mesa Linda. Here's a tournament summary from our tournament director Ron Plummer:
Congratulations to all the winners!
The handicaps shown on the scorecards were the full 100% but remember that we use 85% for all team play.
Team honors go to Meyer, Kirchgessner, Cruz and Willis with -16 to net with the 85% handicap adjustment. Overall low net goes to Fioravanti with a net 65. Overall low gross goes to Schilling with a 73. There were a lot of skins today, 27 across all four flights, but the happiest player today was Mr. Rustrum with a Hole in One on #6!
Remember our next tournament is on the second Thursday of January because of the holiday so mark Jan 8 on your calendars.
Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday 😊🏌

We were concerned that the tournament would fall apart, with the threat of rain, and no carts. Communication from members whose chose not to play was good. The actual turnout was greater than expected. Thanks to Peter Cary for setting up and scoring this tournament.
