May 19 Tournament Results

Third Thursday Tournament Results Here

We had a great tournament today and the last group finished in 4:45.  Thanks for everyone keeping up.  I heard several comments from the group about their low scores and how much they enjoyed the format.  The winners on the leaderboard were a mix of low team handicap indexes and higher handicap indexes.  The results that you see will be a little off from what you were expecting due to using 85% of the team index instead of 100%.  I know that our team was 2 strokes off than the dots indicated on the scorecard.  I also tried a different skin format.  Instead of individual skins I used a team skin format, again at 85%, split into lower team index flight and higher team index flight.  Also two of our teams were short a player so a blind was used for them.  Congratulations goes out to the low 2 best ball net team of Skirvin, Kim, Howard, and Howard recording a 31 under par followed closely by the team of Logemann, Bauer, Barrett, and McGroarty with a 30 under par.  There were a total of 10 skins in the low index flight and 9 skins in the high index flight.  We did not have a multiple CTP winner in contest.

Thanks to all for coming out,

Ron Plummer, Tournament Director

Thanks to Ron for directing this tournament.

48 out of 82 players scored net par or better in the shamble.  Two weeks ago the number was 15 out 82.  This was using 85% of course handicaps in both cases.  Looking at the hole by hole scoring stats, the easiest hole Thursday was #8 (3.05 gross scoring average). 

Don Miyada shot a 94 today.  He turns 97 on Saturday!

Robert Simpson, a new member, shot a net 57 (gross 74).

Ron didn't mention that he tied for low gross with Don Spreeman (71).  There were six gross 72's.

The team formats are fun.  They do produce some interesting results.
