Men's Day Results for April 28th, 2012

A bit of a thin showing for Men's Day this week with only 15 total players today.  My theory is that everyone saw Tom Lorenz and Jack Maisano signed up and figured they had no chance of winning.  Well that premonition came true today.  They both continued their dominance in the Stableford format by besting their quota for the 4th week straight.  Big Tom went +5 over his quota to Tie Mr. Ice (Peter Vanica) for the top spot on the Stableford game.  Mike Girimont, Dave Dunn & Dick "the Terminator" Tilley were tied for the 3rd place position with +3 with Jack Maisano rounding out the players besting their quota with a +2.  We will see if Maisano and Lorenz can make it 5 weeks in a row next week, stay tuned.....

In the team game today we had the format of Whack & Hack.  The teams were combining their low net ball with their high net ball to make up their total team score.  It was not much of a challenge for the first place team of Dunn, Lorenz, Tilley & Vanica since they all beat their points and pretty much dominated every other category in today's Men's Day.  They had a team score of 146 which blew away the field with the next closest team 8 shots back.  Great work guys!

In the Skins competition we had lots of winners for a small group with 14 total skins out.  Mr. Ice cornered the market with 5 skins all coming on his front 9 where he started with a birdie on #1 and finished with Eagle on #8 and birdie on #9.  We won't talk about the hoes in between but he did manage to scrape out an even par 36 on the first 9 holes.  Dick Tilley managed to wrangle 3 skins into his pocket with some consistent play throughout the day.  

The Pro is inching his way back to respectability with only two players besting him today.  Congratulations to Tom Lorenz and Peter Vanica for achieving such an extraordinary feat!

Thanks to everyone for playing in the event today.  

Next week Men's Day will begin at 9am with tee times because of the Kentucky Derby Scramble.  Please feel free to sign up for either event by calling the pro shop or emailing us.
