There were 56 hardy souls out to face the bright sunshine
- and actually the weather sort of almost thunderstormed
and was over cast till noon so it wasn't too bloody hot!
2 Man Best Ball Tournament at Eaglepoint on August 29 - get a partner and get at it!
$55 bucks for a great tournament
with lots of prizes and all that stuff!

Larry and Dave and Al and Ley
deserve a big round of applause
for doing the regular weekly stuff
and keeping us organized
- Like herding cats according to Dave!
- so thanks guys!
Even when we're all bitching about
what the heck you got us organized
into now
we are enjoying it!
I am sure that this is sort of how the
Gods of Golf at Eaglepoint determine
what we are going to play each week!
First in their minds this week was the fine team of Ley MacMillan,
Jack Angstad, Marilyn Peterson
and the ever divine Laurel Gouthro!
Man they were mixing it up when they left the clubhouse!
Second spot this week was claimed by
Heather Heron, Larry Sill,
Steve Walton and Bruce Betker.
Well done gang!
You should take better care of Heather
when she is trying real hard though!
That Heather goes for the gusto with every shot!
Witness this!
Maybe that's what a gal does
when she's married to Dave for 50 years!???
In third spot but first in our hearts was the team of
Carol and Dennis Fitzmaurice
- (they celebrated 29 years of togetherness
- the first nine were just for fun
and the last 20 were heavenly bliss!)
Joining them was the fine team of Tave Dandy
and some old guy who keeps running around
to be on winning teams!
Terry Haines are his initials!
You can see that even coming in third
makes their hearts beat as one!
4th spot was claimed by
"She Who Must Be Obeyed" Wiklund,
Tony the Tank Destroyer,
Rick (Take care of your back buddy!) Baker
and Some old duffer who wandered in off the driving range
and they took pity on him and carried him along Puhach!!!!
For a 4th place team they were sort of
gangstering it up at the end!
Gloria and John Dumont along with Don Ingraham
carried along a heavy sandbagger!
Ludwig Faisthuber!
Ludwig convinced Gloria that a plunge in the pool
would be a great deal of fun and away they went!
Nice form Louie!
6th Spot was the fine team of Lincoln Cadogan,
Dave Haymeister, and Bruce White.
Bruce wanted to celebrate
with a quick triumphant scooter ride!
Just like he golfs! He He He
7th Spot was taken by the fine? team of
Erwin Nyfeler, John French,
Gerry Tresiera and Linda Angstad.
Typically Linda had to carry the guys the whole round
and even after!
Linda said she didn't mind the heavy load
but the verbal abuse was kind of getting to her!
8th and final place was taken by the old tag team of
Paul Sharp, Don Ozubko,
Ken MacCormack, and Don Pennell?
They sort of relaxed after the round
- taking it easy guys?
Here we come to the list of the non-golfers out today:
- this team of Myrtle Cadogan, Vic Feere, Jorgen Viking
and Les Golfland had some near misses
on the course today
- as you can see!
I think they said it was Les who was the quick dodger here!
Nice work Les!
A true rose surrounded by three thorns
- Audrey Nielsen, Dwight Oatway, Phil Wells
and you can sure tell he's Danish
- just can't tell him very much - Ben Nielsen!
Ben said he was going to be generous to Audrey
after the match
and sent along a picture to show
what a great guy he is!
Thanks Ben!
Another group of malcontents and misfits were out performing on the course today!
Charlie Molloy, Ian Jacques, Doug Pockett and Les Ekstrom.
For the after party they got all dolled up
- Ian put on his Mohawk wig and Keds
and Charlie liked the pink handbag!
Les and Doug said guys gotta get new shoes
- nice outfits people!
Their 4th ran off but Gerry Campbell,
Fred Hamarlund and Anita ripped the course up!
Too bad they ripped their bag of cheezies up too!
No use crying over a tough loss!
Pat Faisthuber ( Ludwig's long suffering better half!)
Al Jakel,
Fern Gosselin and Angus Gouthro were out
ripping up the course!
As you can see from the following picture
Angus took the loss hard!
Finally a truly underwhelming performance by
Russ Stewart, Ken Robertson,
Norm (Don't tell Louie I can't putt, chip or drive!
Promise me!? Sure Norm!)
and Linda Olaksew played tiddly winks
or some other endeavour
out on the course today
- definitely not golf
- though Norm loves teeing up for the driving range on #10
They smarmed around the bar afterwards as if they had something to smarm about!
There were a number of Douches today!
Four douchebags performed and here they are in no particular order of merit
cause deuces are just a matter of bloody luck after all!
Dennis Fitzmaurice
(he bloody took the KP on number 4 too!),
Ian Jacques, Terry Haines and Vic Feere!
Winners of meals at Eaglewood this week were:
Marilyn Peterson (don't tell Marv!)
and the champion sandbagger
of all Austria and Canada
Ludwig Faisthuber!
Luckbag!
For nicely parking his ball out of bounds
on Number 5 and Number 10
and missing about 2 out of every 4 putts today
the big putz Norm Romano won
the Senior Token of the week!
Louie phone him up and tell him
to get out there and work it baby!
Otherwise see if you can draft someone else in
for the 2 Man Best Ball!
If you see any obvious errors, omissions, falsifications
or outrageous expansions of the truth please let me know
cause I like a good laugh too!
