Is anyone else curious about what it might be like to play on a firm, dry surface again? After one of the rainiest single days in recent memory on Saturday, the Recreation Park DGC was spongy, to put it mildly, for the June 30 round of the Flyerz doubles league. Eight players squished their way through the course tonight, braving the swampy conditions. Scott McCullough was able to participate this evening thanks to a fortunately-timed break in his work schedule and played in the A-tier for his first round in the league.
Scott and Nathan Opdycke drew each other as partners and turned in a 45 for the round to take home $30 for their finish. John Ryan and Ben Wonders finished one shot behind at 46 for second and $10. Brian Taylor and Nick Witter shot a 48, and Brian Barclay and Larry Smith finished at 50 to round out the field.
The ace pool remains at $120 for the time being. There are three league rounds left, and if nobody gets an ace in the next two, we will play a winners-take-all round for the pool money on July 21.
We will be continuing our Tuesday night shenanigans once the doubles league wraps up. Suggestions for round formats will be written on slips of paper, and we will draw from those to determine what we will do for the evening. Format ideas will be all over the place, so come ready for an adventure. You may end up playing a round completely different from anything you've ever done. The $1 optional Tuesday night ace pool from past leagues will be up for grabs, too. I can't wait.
Thanks, everyone.
