August 29th, 1998

The fifth Saturday of any month means it's time for the challenging Coyote Creek park. Eric Rich, Doug and John came to test their skills on San Jose's new pole hole course. John Davis captured the early lead with a par on the first hole played, while eveyone else bogeyed. On hole two Eric and Rich parred, while the rest bogeyed. John and Eric both managed pars on hole three. After nine holes and a lot of bogeys for everyone, Eric and John were tied at 29. Rich and Doug were up in the 30's and struggling.

John opened a big lead with great deuces on hole ten and eleven. A series of par holes for everyone passed until Eric managed a par at hole sixteen, while everyone else bogeyed. Coming in to the last hole, the leaders were separated by a stroke. Eric made a long, thrilling deuce while everyone else parred. This dramatic finish left Eric and John tied for the day at one over par and they agreed this was a worthy finish. Doug and Rich were several strokes behind the leaders.

Congratulations to Eric and John for their hard earned tie for the day.
