National Golf Club MGA: MGA Opening Day March 16th 2013

MGA Opening day was today and we had a great turnout of 28 players. The boys enjoyed a beautiful Carolina day here at National for their opening event for the 2013 season. The games today were Skins, Stableford, Beat the Pro and a team game of 2 net balls of the 4 player team.

Sam Packard reaches in to pluck out his Ace on the 12th hole.

We had Mr. Sam Packard make his second ace of his career today on the 12th hole with a nice one bouncer and in the cup! His last ace came on the 2nd hole when he was just 10 years old. The ace was witnessed by his Dad, Mark Packard, Mark Watson and myself. Way to go Sam! that was a great shot.

The top earner today was Ron Coffman who came prepared to go low. He had an impressive one under par 71 and cleaned up in the Stableford game. He topped that off with being the skins leader also with four of those. Nice work Mr. Fire!

The team game was dominated by the foursome of Mike Girimont, Pete Mamuzic, Tim Buckley & Randy Legallais. The went super low in the 2 net ball game with 21 under par. Close on their heals was the team of Paul Courneya, Tom Boals, Frank D'Auria and Ed Bernard. That team went nineteen under par to capture the 2nd place spot.

I took a beating on the golf course today so we had lots of players beating the pro! Check out the summary sheet to see the complete list.

The play today was followed by a very nice deli lunch provided by the MGA. The boys stuck around after for some food and drink before they ventured home to see what was on the honey do list.

Thanks to everyone who attended today and I hope to see you next week. We are tee times next week. Check out the calendar on the blog for all upcoming men's day formats and times.

Best,
