The Spring Medal

The Spring Medal Championship is one of the most demanding tournaments of the year. Players compete over 36 holes of stroke play in this 2-week event to claim victory. While the field is flighted, the champion can come from any flight to win the top prize. The greens were fast this week and it took a steady putter to get the job done. This year Ray Geisick earned top honors turning in a 2-round net 136. Well done Ray! Other scores of note include Jay Karafa 140, Jim Geesman and Jeff Stanga each finishing with a net 141 and Gary Lovell came in with a 146.

The Blind Draw Shamble ABCs

A is for ASMC,
B is for Bright & Sunny,
C is for Competition,
D is for Deeeeeep rough!

Well it will officially be Spring this week and that means two things. Stay in the fairway because the rough is deep and shaggy and... it's time for the A•B•C•D Blind Draw Shamble. And while we're at it, maybe you're wondering what a shamble is. According to Google, a shamble is to move with a slow, shuffling, awkward gait. And appropriately enough play was soggy and slow this week. Fortunately the sun was shining and us golfers were golfing. Even though the greens were aerated just two weeks prior, they had healed enough to get a reasonable roll in spite of or maybe because of the gentle waffle pattern blanketing them.

But with all the challenges presented to our members, some outstanding scores were posted. Let's congratulate the winning team of Brad Ryno, Danny Braga, Jeff Stanga and Russ Nicholson who turned in a net 109. Well done gentlemen!

And here are all the winning teams:
