Recap…
Tuesday, May 30th was Wk #6, and the Duffers first of three FunNites
scheduled for the 2006 season.
Also held last night was KnockDown #1.
The weather was hot…Hot…HOT… and muggy.
Lots of riding carts were used last light!
Our first group teed-off at 4:45 while the final group replaced the
flagstick at 8:45. Most rounds
were completed in about 2:20 although there were a number of complaints about a
certain 3-sum that was playing towards the rear of the pack. Seems that the cart riders will NOT get out
of the cart unless they are hitting their own shots. Never leaving ones cart-partner alone in the woods to hit their
own ball located on the opposite side of the course. Some ‘cartmanhip’ coaching may be necessary.
Being a FunNite, attendance was expectedly good with 51 of 54
members (94%) and 0 guests enjoying the evening’s festivities. Next time you see Dale Sandvick,
please thank him for getting the pizza and beer together!
Member attendance for the year has been rising steadily and is now 87%,
while total attendance including guests and make-up rounds, has finally reached
the 90% mark!

Because Tuesday’s activities did NOT include any special format, make-up
scores will be accepted in the usual manner.
REMEMBER, you have one week to play your make-up rounds. You must play the same side
that the league was originally scheduled to play. Turn your scorecards in to a Creekwood Clubhouse Counter Staff
Member, asking them to place it in the Duffer File, or give it to Stanny on
Tuesday.

Tradition
dictates that they buy you a drink, or be heckled miserably!
NOTE… PLEASE DON’T PREMATURELY CIRCLE YOUR BIRDIES ON THE SKIN SHEET! It’s a pretty television graphic
presentation BUT it makes it VERY DIFFICULT to see the TRUE SKINS!
MORON’S
CORNER… (Formerly JETHRO CIPHERS)
This is the spot where I will highlight (low light) the SPECIAL
skills of Duffers and their simplistic mathematic disabilities.
Lots-o-morons last night… must have been the HEAT!
5+5+5+4+8+4+4+4+5 = 44 not 46 – Larry Lahiff
6+4+5+3+4+5+3+5+4 = 39 not 44 – Mickey Lima
47-17 = 30 not 40 – Ron Cross
44-6 = 38 not 36 – Mickey (herb) Lima
47-10 = 37 not 35 – John Little
a friendly REMINDER…
Stay out of this column by taking a minute or two and check that the
scorer in your foursome wasn’t a MORON too!
