RESULTS FOR 6-1-17 and Pres. Cup final

“Do you know what my favorite part of the game is? The opportunity to play.” — Mike Singletary

Here are some of the photos I shot of today’s President’s Cup final. The winner was Gene Charbonneau. He played Jack Fenelon for the championship. Fenelon took the lead early on, but Charbonneau came storming back and was up by 2 after 9 holes. Play was pretty even through most of the back 9 until the 17th hole where Charbonneau was able to close out Fenelon. The battle for 3rd place between Don Mulville and Richard Guzik was a similar close match. Don was up by 4 after 9 holes. On the back, Guzik rallied and came back. He was up 1 by the 16th hole. Going into the 18th hole, it was all tied up. Guzik was able to prevail on the 18th and won the third place position.

The President’s Cup Champion for 2017, Gene Charbonneau

Today’s top golfers of the regular tournament were Ron Laufer with the best gross score of 84 and Jim Degraffenreid with the best net score of 63, Way to go guys and President’s Cup champions.

On a more somber note, at today’s tournament we learned that Jeff Hartman passed away recently. I remember playing golf with him. He was a good man and he will be missed.

Our next away tournament will be at the Elkin’s Ranch Golf Course on Tues 6-27-17. The cost is $ 50.00 if you want to be in the tournament and $ 43.00 if you just want to play golf. The fees also include a cart. Cash or checks go to Ron Laufer at least 1 week prior to the day of the tourney. If you have any questions, contact Ron Laufer, Away Tournament Chairman, @ (805) 659-3266 or email @ relaufer@att.net.

LUNCHEON this coming Thursday 5-18-17

Don’t forget about the luncheon immediately after our tournament. It’ll be at the Domino’s Pizza restaurant at the corner of Telephone and Petit (the old Ralph’s shopping center), 9410 Telephone Rd, Ventura. A large pizza runs about $ 7.98 and feeds 2 to 3, so 3 people can share one pizza if they want to. They take about 10 minutes to make one, so you can either order at the counter, or you can phone in your order just before leaving the golf course (805) 658-9911. We will be having the usual raffle and the presentation of committee reports. This would also be an ideal time to bring up questions or concerns.

PRESIDENT’S CUP: The following changes were made to the original line-up. Three golfer weren’t able to play, so three alternates were chosen to take their place. Playing for Jerry Kehoe was Don Walker. Playing for Jerry Workman was John Gonzales and playing for David Escamilla was Fred Rudy.

PRESIDENT’S CUP QUALIFYING, MAY 2017

Here is the list of those golfers who qualified for the President’s Cup. Jack Fenelon emailed it to me on Friday, but I only got around to reading my email today. I don’t have any additional info to give you regarding the list, so if you have any questions, they can be directed to Jack at his email address: jackfenelon@hotmail.com or to Phil Youker, Pres. at philyouker@roadruner.com. The pairings list is in Excel format, so once you click on it, you may have to click on the next thing that pops up until you see the list. Then you’ll have to scroll down the document to see all the info.

Just below the list are some of the photos taken by Dick Kohnmann at our last barbecue. Check them out. I’ll post more every Thursday along with the scores until I get all 40 or so posted. Thanks for the photos Dick, I’m sure everyone appreciates your creative camera work.

RESULTS FOR 04-27-17

“I’m a golfaholic, no question about that. Counseling won’t help me. They’d have to put me in prison, and then I’d talk the warden into building a hole or two and teach him how to play.” — Lee Tervino

Don’t forget about the club barbecue taking place tomorrow at the Mountain View Golf Course. Happy hour and the live music start at 5PM with dinner starting at 6PM. It should be a beautiful afternoon and evening. If you haven’t signed up already, come on out and pay at the door. Also, if you have a piece of golf equipment, or a golf-related item that you no longer want collecting dust in your home, you can donate it for inclusion in our raffle. If it’s a nice warm day, I’m going to try to set up the music equipment outside in the patio so as to keep the noise level down inside. Hope to see you all there with your golf “fish” stories.

The top gross-score golfers of today’s tournament were Frank Allison and myself. We both had an 81. I was doubly lucky today in that I had the best net score of 58. I’ve been steadily improving since I purchased a new set of “fitted” clubs from The Bunker golf store. Plus I bought a laser finder too.

RESULT FOR 04-13-17

“Everybody can see that my swing is homegrown. That means everybody has a chance to do it.” — Bubba Watson

Announcements:

I wasn’t able to post Thursday’s results until now (Fri. 3:30 PM) because I didn’t have time this morning.

At Thursday’s Board meeting we passed a resolution which has to do with the prize money that is won during tournament play. Anyone who is not a current member, or any member who has not paid his annual dues by the required deadline, will not be eligible to win prize money.

We will be having a club luncheon on May 18th following our Thursday tournament. It will NOT be held at the Wedgewood. It will be held at Domino’s Pizza, 9410 Telephone Rd. It’s located at the intersection of Telephone Rd. and Petit Ave. in the S/W corner, which is same corner where Ralph’s used to be. No need to pay anyone up front. If you go, you can pay for your own lunch when you get there. I hear they also have a banquet room for our meeting.

Don’t forget about the club barbecue on the 28th of this month. I agreed to play music on that day, but I have to go in for a colonoscopy in the morning, so if for some reason I can’t make it, you’ll know why.

This week’s top golfers were Ron Laufer with the best gross score of 80. Both Ron Laufer and Don Walker tied for the best net score of 63. Way to go guys
