You know the drill!
The powers that be foisted this otherwise harmless game on to us poor unsuspecting old seniors!
The Power that be's is known as Old Socks!
Cause he's smelly and wrinkly!
The Black ball is always reserved for Dave "The Bear" Barker and by the way on July 14 I made an error on an entry for Dave and it was brought to my attention by someone and so I have corrected it and you can view it by scrolling down to previous posts and seeing Dave treed!
Laurel was kind enough to show us what to do!
She had perfect control! Before the game started!
But in our hands pure gold turns to dross!
Because we can mangle anything --
-except for one team - a strange makeup to the team
but we will leave you to guess who shoots better than their handicap each week!
Freddy Freeloader,
Vic Benard,
John (yes it was an honest 78!) French
and Mr. Big
were the clear cut winners with
a team ball and low net score of 117.
Honestly do these guys have no shame?
It seems not! they took their winnings and were soon on their way home!
Does make you worried about our future generations!
However there were some fine and honest golfers out today - stupid too apparently!
In second place and tied were the teams of
Ron and Dave "I'm over my shanks now I think?" Barker
along with
Angus "the real player!" Gouthro and Doug "I can't get any respect around here at all" Rutledge.
as a team came in tied for second
(But as you can see
Barker knows how to celebrate anything!)
Joining them like kissing your sister were:
Somebody named Smith, Arlene (I just have to say jump and he asks how high!) Sahlstrom, Dave Haymeister, and Gordie Craik who was just here to eat?
They seemed quite pleased but a little bewildered by all the fuss of tying for second!
The real losers then came 4th.
There were two groups of them.
Mr. Cool, Mr. Hole in one, Mr. Straight and Far,
and Mr. He! He! He!
They took winning 4th a little too lightly!
Tied with them were the dynamic foursome?
The ever lovely Mrs. Dumont
who was being actively pawed over
by some old French guy,
Rick (Mr. Deuce and don't you forget it!) Baker
along with
How high do you want me to jump this time Arlene?
Puhach.
Here's how Dumont gets mixed up in the mornings!
Then there were some others who apparently were on the course but not on the same page as the rest of us.
Mark was being interviewed by Larry as to how high he could shoot while their third
Fred Persello had left
- an admirer though said that this picture shows
Fred in action when he was teaching!
Fred was known for his soft warm hands!
Also on the course were:
Laurel Gouthro, Old Socks, Judy and her Cross to bear.
It was a tough time on the course for them.
Laurel and Judy were out practicing another sport!
Old Socks and I am a Cross to bear
were once again depressed by their inadequacies!
Lest we forget - Mr Deuce AKA Rick Baker was hot again today! Boring golf!
Dave Haymeister was rollicking along on number 18 and by managing to bank the ball off the rock at the back and with incredible deft even control of his sidespin he put it in the pocket and won the Seniors token driving range of the week!
Apparently people admire this sort of thing?
Great shot Dave!
ANNOUNCEMENTS!
There were 27 out this week -
News on Weldon Steele - we came second to Rivershore
with 55 1/2 points.
with 55 1/2 points.
Better luck next year if we can keep
Sill and Hay away from the bar.
Group therapy seems to be their problem.
