One For The Commish

The crew came through for the Commish (aka Clint M) one more time as they blew away the field at HMGC in the Senior Inter Club. The format says the low five scores from each participating club is used to determine the winner. BCC had four teams in the money and won by seven shots. That gives us two victories in 2009. That's the first time I can ever remember us doing that since I've been playing. Can't remember who the big winner was, but Sarge was seen loading his car with a lot of socks (literally). I guess he has enough of the other stuff or maybe the HMGC Pro Shop has really nice socks. Go figure! TTS found his game for one more day and was seen smiling at lunch, and then left early. His playing partner picked up his prize money and told him later it was for $20 when it was really for something higher. Maybe his partner heard about the great selection of socks and wanted all he could get too.

Saturday was the men's final closing, so no big match to report on. Fun format, 3 man scramble with a different course set up. Some really interesting tee and pin locations. Bill (aka the Pro) cleans out the shop and everyone wins a prize. You guessed it Sarge took socks and left the expensive stuff on the table. LLB was heard muttering about the great shorts he got, but really how great can they be if he was picking last and the Pro hadn't been able to sell them!! I heard he went out for some emergency play but was hitting it sideways. I guess the euphoria of the shorts was too much for him.

Sunday was the mixed closing event. Another interesting format - Step Aside Scramble - with 2 drives per side from each player required. The winning team had to pay off the Pro Shop for their pairing. But guess what? Sarge won more socks! He now has the best dressed feet at BCC.
His wife was heard to say they were running out of space and she may have to put a card board box in the garage for the overflow.

Played Texas Hold'em on Thursday night in the grill. Something new at the club and was a limited success for the first time. The next scheduled time is October 10Th at 6PM. Here's the deal; You play from 6PM until 9PM, a light buffet is available. The stakes are limited, an all in max is $10. If you interested look for emails comming from the club office on future dates.

Remember JR/SR Silly Season starts October 1. I've been working on some different formats. Could really be silly.

Finally, how about Philly Mick? Wins the tournament but Tiger gets the big check. But still $3 mill is nothing to sneeze at.
