NEW GOLF HOTLINE, EFFECTIVE TODAY

815-242-1597

Well, we definitely had a great day for golf at the Sanctuary and there were some real good scores out there. Kossman 76, Lee 77, G. Foster 78, P. Schessler 80, Furman 81, myself 81, Stanford 83, Stevie O.84, Suntken 84. Handicap scores were R. Miller 97/63,    J. Jas 89/66, Podlasek 89/68, Breier 105/69, Kleinpaste 93/69, Konopacz 88/70, R. Samoska 85/70, Schaefer 90/70, Bonarigo 90/71, Bondi 88/71, Christopherson 101/71, and Flanagan 98/71.

My ageless wonder club had a few players.  Huddleston 108/73, Long 98/72, Musser 93/75, and my man Gar Ward 93/73.

There were 7 club championship matches out there.  The winners were Kleinpaste and Schaefer.  They have to play more but these 5 winners won their divisions.  Kossman, T. Schlesser, Bazan, Kaz, and Bondi.  One match found Lee Kaz against my bud Waldo.  Lee was tough to beat.  He shot 40 on the front and tried to give Waldo a chance on the back nine by shooting a 59, but instead held on for the victory.  Nice consistent shooting Lee.  

No other info except Anthony told me he played bad on the last three holes to lose to Tony S., as I did also to shoot 81, instead of in the 70's as I predicted.

Next week, we play Deer Creek, haven't been there in a little while so I have to tell myself how to play:

Hole 1: Par 4, not that long and its pretty straight, should make a good score

Hole 2: Par 5, kind of dogleg right, trees on both sides, bunker in front, 6 is ok.

Hole 3: Par 4, bunker on both sides of fairway and right of green, bogey is ok.

Hole 4: Par 3, about 150, well bunkered, got hole in one there "once"

Hole 5: Par 4, slight dogleg right, well bunkered green, bogey is ok

Hole 6: Par 4, not that long, bunker in front of green, should par

Hole 7: Par 5, water on left, stay right, have chance to par

Hole 8: Par 3, about 150 to 160, downhill over water, tough green 4 is ok

Hole 9: Par 4, pretty straight, has bunkers, still should par

Hole 10: Par 4, bunker on right, well bunkered green, 5 is ok

Hole 11: Par 4, bunker on right and left, well bunkered green, still is parable

Hole 12: Par 5, dogleg left, keep drive right, should par

Hole 13: Par 3 about 140, bunker in front, water on right, should par

Hole 14: Par 4, short, hit drive between bunkers, make par

Hole 15: Par 5, long, bunker in front of green, tough green, bogey ok

Hole 16: Par 4, Long, tough water on right, bunker and trees on left, water can come in play on second shot, bogey is good

Hole 17: Par 3, about 180, over bunker, 4 is ok

Hole 18: Par 4, water on right, bunker and out of bounds on left, bunker in front of large green, bogey not bad

Not as easy as the Sanctuary,but can still shoot in the 70s.  Getting closer, going to do it.

P.S. Stay out of bunkers

Sick and Vigil

Please remember to keep our good friend and BTC brother Andy Zilis in your thoughts and prayers.  Andy had emergency colon surgery last Saturday.  Unfortunately this will temporarily delay his quest for a new heart.

Tom Kelly has been MIA for the entire golf season.  Tom injured his shoulder the first week of golf and is currently going for physical rehab.  Hopefully we will see Tom back on the golf course before the end of the season.
