THE GOLF SWING by Roy McAvoy (from the movie Tin Cup).
I tend to think of the golf swing as a poem. The critical opening phrase of this poem will always be the grip, which the hands unite to form a single unit by the simple overlap of the little finger. Lowly and slowly the club head is led back, pulled into position not by the hands, but by the body, which turns away from the target, shifting weight to the right side without shifting balance. Tempo is everything, perfection unobtainable, as the body coils down at the top of the swing. There’s a slight hesitation. A little nod to the gods to concede that we are fallible and that perfection is unobtainable. And now the weight begins shifting back to the left, pulled by the powers inside the earth. It’s alive this swing! A living sculpture. Then down through contact, always down, striking the ball crisply, with character. A tuning fork goes off in your heart. Such a pure feeling is the well-struck golf shot. Now the follow-through to finish. Always on line. The reverse C of the Golden Bear! The steelworker’s power and brawn of Carl Sandburg’s Arnold Palmer! End, the unfinished symphony of Roy McAvoy. (Photo is of Neil Dawson, taken this morning at the #1 T-box)

Our top golfer this week was Tony Merriman who had the best gross score (79) as well as the best net score (61). Way to go Tony.

SCRAMBLE RESULTS FOR 7-23-15

Thought for the week: The mark of a great champion is not only how good he is at his best, but also how good he is at his worst. — Inspired by a similar quote by Martina Navratilova, Tennis champion

Greetings fellow golfers. It looks like we made it through a very humid round of senior-scramble golf. The top-dog golf team for this week was the team of Olguin, Jones, McCollum and myself with a gross score of 62 (6 under par). When you look at the results you’ll notice that many of the names of those golfers listed last on each team, are incomplete. For some reason the form that is being used for the scramble results won’t take more than 31 characters including spaces. We need to fix that in the near future. Additionally, the 2nd place team listed only shows three golfers, but I’m pretty sure I saw Jack Fenelon with that group, so apparently his entire name was excluded. If we don’t get this problem resolved by the next scramble day, we’ll need to make sure each team has at least a couple of golfers with short last names, ha ha.

Next week we have the away tournament at the Hueneme naval base and Thursday’s tournament will be a 4-man 2 best-ball competition.
