LEAGUE INFO…
Recap…
Tuesday, June 6th was the seventh official week of the DUFFERS 2006
season. The weather was perfect with
bright blue skies and 80-degree temperatures.
Creekwood C.C. is plush, green, and beautiful. The greens are recovering
nicely from the recent aeration and you must stay in the fairways to have any
chance of making a birdie at Creekwood these days!
Our first group teed-off at 4:41 while the final group replaced the
flagstick at 9:02. Most rounds
were played in about 2:20!
Attendance was good with 49 of 54 members (91%) and 4 guests (98%) making their
way to the tee box. However, just 48
members finished their rounds?
Seems that David Zeller walked off the course on the 11th
hole after loosing his fourth and last golf ball in his bag! I’ve always said that equipment management
is a very important part of this game!
With last nights excellent conditions, member attendance for the year
continues its improvement to 88%, while total attendance, including guests
and make-up rounds is up to 91%.
The League still needs your HELP…
Rules Committee… (Volunteer still needed)
Members officiate any rules disputes that might arise during league play.

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.

SKIN
RESULTS for Wk #7…
we had 50 out of the 53 players (94%) in the game
for a pot of $245
those not playing were…
Wayne Cerney and two guests!
Hey guys… it’s just like the lotto, ‘you can’t win if you don’t PLAY!
Low Net (29) – Tom Thomasson - $49 – second week in a row for a
net 29!
Pin #12 – Randy Dudinsky – $49
Pin #17
– Pat Anderson III – $49
Two Skins were out @ $49 each…
#14 – birdie – Paul Chichester – only 1 one birdie on that hole???
#17 – birdie – Mickey Lima (bean)
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.
5+5+5+4+4+7+5+5+6 = 45 not 44 – President, Rick Kayfes
48-9 = 39 not 37 – Dick Ade
39-5 = 34 not 36 – Mickey (in the last group AGAIN) Lima
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!
CREEKWOOD DAY…
Our friends at Creekwood G.C. are celebrating their 46th
