LEAGUE INFO…
Recap…
Tuesday, August 7th was the 17th official week of the
DUFFERS 2007 season. The weather was hot,
humid, and steamy.
We had only 42 of 57 members
(74%) and 6 guests sweat it up last night.
Member attendance for the year has dropped to 86%, while total
attendance, including guests and make-up rounds is now down to 95%.
Pre-Play
'The Rules Committee’ has amended the Pre-Play definition to
state that; “Any round started before 4:00 Tuesday, according to “The
Starters timepiece” will be considered a Pre-Play round. If there is a question about the “official”
time and you wish to avoid the ‘Pre-Play penalty, ask “The Starter” to verify
that you and your group are teeing off after 4:00.
FYI, Pre-Play rounds remain capped at NET PAR or greater and are
ineligible for Skins entry and/or KnockDown Points.

Tradition
dictates that the winners buy the drinks, 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.
Finally empty this
week J
a friendly REMINDER…
It is each and every
member’s personal responsibility to insure that his own score is CORRECTLY
recorded (both gross and net) on the weekly skin / work
sheet. Even
though you may not have been the person keeping score for the foursome, it is your
duty to insure that it was done correctly! Do it right and
you won’t end up listed in the “Moron’s Corner”!
NOTE: If you wish to be considered for the ‘net’ portion of the ‘Skin
Game’, the ‘net score box’ must be properly filled in.
LARRY LAHIFF'S

h the summer holiday weekends and
