Well Deserved

A well deserved honor was bestowed on one of our own yesterday at the club's annual meeting.  The SD and the Mrs. were named Members of The Year for 2013.  This was in recognition of their contributions to the club over the years and most recently his efforts organizing the prime rib dinners we have enjoyed over the last three years.  Congratulations.

The SD and the GWH didn't fare as well on the golf course on Saturday.  They continued to extend their losing streak.  I have no other explanation other than to say the pendulum always swings the other way.  It is really interesting since they start and finish strong.  It is the middle 14 holes that give them trouble.

One of my pet peeves is slow play.  In my opinion this got out of hand on Saturday.  I give Brad a lot of credit for trying to keep things moving.  There is no reason an Old Pal Match should take ssubstantially longer than a normal game.  For some reason you say Old Pal and everything slows down.  This is from a bunch of guys who complain about slow play on any other day.  Why people don't practice "ready golf "  is a mystery.  And, when you are holding the entire course up DON'T SIT BY THE GREEN AND RECORD YOUR SCORES!  At one point there were four groups on the same hole.  I think we can all agree that shouldn't happen.

The weather has definitely turned to Summer.  Just in time for the Fourth of July.  This week should be a warm one, with the occasional thunder storm thrown in to cool things down.  Hope every one's AC is in working order.  Don't forget the sunscreen.

See ya,

PS - If you were at the club Friday night I hope you noticed how busy it was.  Between Twilight Golf, Floaty Friday, rehearsal dinners and normal dinning the place was packed.   Give credit to Todd and the staff everything worked pretty smoothly.
