Men’s League 2024 Week 6

The course is holding up in spite of the recent heat wave… I’ve finally got the irrigation system primed and tuned so lack of rain won’t be an issue… next step is to get the new/old sprayer cranking to tamp down any pesky dollar spot / anthracnose / pythium infections before they can do any serious damage (as has occurred the last few seasons) … Greens have been rolled rather than cut and they’ve seemed to respond well to the less stressful treatment – albeit they are running even slower than usual – a small price to pay to maintain green, healthy turf. Onto the golf:

Check the skins report out to see who divided up the $36 skins pot. No one managed to hit / hold the near pin 4th hole so the upcoming week’s contest on hole #5 has a $24 carry over. If you were in week 6’s contest you’ll pay $5 to compete; if you join anew it will set you back $7 to play for the bigger payout. Good Luck!!!

Two sets of Giant Killers… who will dominate? Nope… it’s a 9-9 tie … we’ll have to match these guys up again later in the season.
In a battle of former teammates Chevy comes out on top this time with the help of a few handicap strokes
Mike/Gary couldn’t overcome the handicap strokes and dropped the match 10.5 – 7.5
Dustin / (sub) Zach hold off two subs to win 10-8
Joey’s 8 handicap strokes weren’t enough to break the resultant deadlock as both matches saw players go stroke for stroke in yet another 9-9 tie…
A big win for team Chris / John as Chris’ handicap strokes gave him a big boost and John’s lessons and hard work on the range and course seem to have him on track with a 43 net 28
