HGSGA Update - July 22, 2021 Good turnout again with lots of close scores. The money winners for the day were: Stevie Ray Scarborough/Bill Stetka 70 Gross $30 Andy Finkel/Joe Duklewski 65 Net $30 John Barth/Dave Derheim 65 Net $25 Richard Fields/Steve Levin 67 Net $20 FT Case/Mark Wichlin 67 Net $20 Mark Cardwell/Dave Thomas 67 Net $20 We will be sending out the list of qualifiers for the State 2 Man shortly. Mike Caporaletti will be in charge of running you guys down to be sure you are still going to the event if you qualified. As I said before, we only have 2 slots but I expect additional ones to be given to us so as they open up we will go down the list. Next week we have an away MISGA event scheduled at Manor CC. I am trying to get everyone in who wants to play, if they limit us we will use the lottery system. So if you have signed up and are not going, please remove your name or contact Ian to let him know. The following is a public service announcement – whoever found Jim Bona’s sunglasses, please return them! See you next week! Ian HGSGA Update - July 15, 2021 After a somewhat tumultuous start this morning, we were able to get everyone off who wanted to play thanks to the efforts of Lew, Mark and Rich. Seems that we had some unexpected players showing up who were not scheduled, but we seemed to work everything out. Also a thanks to the staff who helps us get everything ready in the morning and the volunteers who brought coffee/doughnuts (Randy) and who delivered out lunches (Felton and Rick). Next week we have 2 away MISGA events, Eagles Nest on Monday, Challedon on Wednesday. On Thursday, we have the 2-Man qualifier event. We use this event to select the teams we will send to the state finals on 9/9/21 which will be held at Norbeck. We will have 2 official slots to fill in addition to the one that Craig Ostrom & Doug Wilson automatically qualify for since they were the 2019 Champions. If you know someone that you want to partner with, contact them and update your names on SignUpGenius. Otherwise we will pick a partner for you when we set up the roster. Click here for todays money winners. Click here for full results. Those of you from Hobbits will be able to pick up your gift cards from the Pro Shop. Our match play tournament continues to play out. The D bracket finals are set. Steve Pope will play Reg Hahne. Jim Bona won the C bracket after defeating John Barth in the bracket final. Gerry Logue has won his side of the B bracket and is waiting for a few matches on the other side to find out who he will play in the bracket finals. In the A bracket finals, Defending Champion Dave Derheim will play Tim Seelaus. Stay tuned.... Have a great weekend! Ian HGSGA Update - July 8, 2021 Well we beat the rain, but some of us were hoping midway that the round would be a wash out. CS3 is in the bag and the leader board has shuffled around a bit. But don’t despair if you are not up near the top, there are 3 more attempts to change your position. Next week we have 3 events going on, the Columbia Cup on Monday, a MISGA event at Montgomery CC on Tuesday and our home MISGA event on Thursday. A reminder for the 2 man event on 7/22, this is a qualifier for the State event. If you know who you want to be paired with, please indicate it on SignUpGenius, otherwise we will pair you up ourselves. If your team qualifies, then both of you need to agree to go to the State Championship to be held on 9/9 at Norbeck CC, no substitutions will be allowed. Lew has let all of you know that he will be overseas visiting his daughter and her family. Mark Cardwell has stepped up and will be our Golf Genius guru, spending the long sleepless, thankless, frustrating hours tackling the ever changing rosters – let’s help lower the frustration level by adding/deleting your name in a timely manner on SignUpGenius. We are experimenting with SignUpGenius - setting automatic cut off times for the sign ups. Currently it is set so that 4 days prior to an event, if you attempt to add or delete your name, you must contact us by email to have it done. When you hit “Submit and Sign Up”, if you are late, you will see a message telling you to email hgsga.signup@gmail.com . We will then add/delete you. This gives us better control over the rosters and pairing. Here are today's money winners Gross 1 Egge, Bob $30.00 68 Net 1 Yaksich, Nick $30.00 69 2 Island, Curt $25.00 70 3 Brooks, Doug $25.00 70 4 Feinberg, Mark $20.00 71 5 Ramsey, Mac $20.00 72 6 Cardwell, Mark $18.00 73 7 Maddox, Randy $18.00 73 8 Carr, Jerry $18.00 73 9 Caporaletti, Mike $18.00 73 10 Akerson, Ray $18.00 73 11 Wichlin, Mark $15.00 74 12 Scarborough, Steve $15.00 74 13 Moore, Wayne $15.00 74 14 Sebastian, Mason $15.00 74 15 Pagnotta, Alex $15.00 74 16 Ferraro, Philip $15.00 75 Full results for this event and all previous events (including updated championship series standings) can be found by hitting the 2021 Golf Genius Button on the sidebar. Be sure to follow the directions on the button! Have a great weekend! Ian HGSGA Update - June 24, 2021 President's Message Today’s weather couldn’t have been better. Clear skies, low humidity, perfect for drinking beer around the fire pit - and also for golf…. For some of us... Good turnout, 55 players for the Stableford event, and 2 match play events. Stableford Winners: Net 1 Bergin, Rick $30.00 55 2 Fornadel, Richard $23.00 47 T3 Johnson, Dwight $19.00 45 T3 Wikse, Carl $19.00 45 80 T3 Sebastian, Mason $19.00 45 6 Hutcheson, Steven $15.00 44 T7 Stetka, William $14.00 42 T7 Smith, Robert $14.00 42 T7 Sumner, Ian $14.00 42 T7 Caporaletti, Mike $14.00 42 T7 Moore, Wayne $14.00 42 12 Freiert, Jim $10.00 41 T13 Wichlin, Mark $10.00 40 T13 Hickey, Tom $10.00 40 T13 Scarborough, Steve $10.00 40 T13 Resnick, Stuart $10.00 40 Gross 1 Doug Wilson $30 38 Full results for this event and all previous events can be found by hitting the 2021 Golf Genius Button on the sidebar. Be sure to follow the directions on the button! We had two match play events today, Jim Bona defeated Bruce Johnson & Steve Pope defeated Matt Hauser. Earlier this week Dave Derheim defeated Bruce Winstead. Updated brackets are on the sidebar. Next week we will play an ABCD team event, spread the wealth out a little. There is also an away MISGA at Musket Ridge for those who signed up. Tee time is 8:30. You are responsible for notifying the host club if you are not going to play, we have sent in the roster. Do not be a no-show, it costs them money for food prep. Also if you are interested in playing in the Columbia Cup event on 7/12, be sure to sign up. We will close the roster on July 4th or when the sign up reaches 24 names. We will then use a lottery system to select the 12 players - the rest will be on standby. A housekeeping note: after you complete your round, if you have used a cart, make sure you empty your trash. Finally, I heard a bit of grumbling about last week's Home MISGA event, specifically the food situation. We had addressed this early on, knowing that until guidelines were changed, holding an indoor dining event was not feasible at the time. The best alternative was the box lunch and it was clearly spelled out to the visiting clubs as well as to all our members. It went smoothly with a lot of help from our guys to get the food out to everyone. We hope to be able to change things once CA has its meeting in a few days and changes some of the guidelines. If so, we will hopefully be able to go back to the old ways. See you next week Ian HGSGA Update - June 17, 2021 What a day for our first MISGA mixer. I want to thank everyone who participated and all those who assisted with the preparation and those who did volunteer duties. For the first mixer of the season, after a year's layoff, I think things went well. As the season progresses, we should see these events return to normal, Coffee, Doughnuts, and indoor/outdoor dining. Todays's money winners are: Ralph Bowe $30 Steve Pope $30 Steve Levin $30 Mike Caporaletti $20 Jim Bona $20 Stuart Resnick $15 Cecil Phillips $15 Lew Shipp $12.50 Jim Freiert $12,50 Next week we will be playing an individual Stableford event. If you haven't signed up, do so by Sunday. Remember we close out the sign up sheets Sunday evening for regular Thursday events. Also, a heads up, we will open the sign up for the July 12th Columbia Cup event on this Sunday, June 20th. Read the attached Columbia Cup info sheet if you think you might be interested in representing Hobbits. A brief word about sign ups. We rely on you to show up if you sign up. It takes time to get the field set up and no shows, late cancellations as well as late pleas to get in, create a lot of extra work for us. These guys are volunteers, we don't even reward them with free beers for all the work they do! See you next week. Ian Holly Hills MISGA - June 16 Hobbits Winners: 1st place: Alex Bollman Wolf Mann Chris Ward Fred Case Payout: $22.50 -13 Under Par 2nd. Place.

You can see your standing by clicking the "2021 Golf Genius Results" button on the sidebar, sign in using the GGID: HGSGA2021, and then select today's round's results from the schedule of events.. Remember, we take the lowest 4 of 6 scores to determine the winner, so you have plenty of time to get in contention if you were disappointed with your round. Next week we are busy with 3 away MISGA’s and our first Home MISGA. For the home MISGA we will be serving a box lunch rather than a sit-down lunch. Current plans are to have the lunches delivered to the players while out on the course. Hobbits players who are in a winning foursome will receive gift cards as usual. Remember, all players must ride in carts, no walkers and bring your $5 cash prize money. Finally, on June 20th we will open the sign up of the Columbia Cup, the portion that will be held at Hobbits on Monday, July 12th. The field will be limited to no more than 12 players, so we will only accept a maximum of 24 signups, be on the alert if you want to be a participant, we will close the sign-up on July 4th. Dwight Johnson is the Cup manager for Hobbits and has asked that if you would be willing to donate a guest pass for the July event to accommodate any of the Fairway Hills players who might not have a membership in one of the CA golf packages. If so, please indicate your willingness in the sign-up comment section. The second round of the Cup will be held on August 30th at Fairway Hills.

Duncan (Bracket D) See you next week Ian HGSGA Update - June 3, 2021 Seems like everyone who played in the Texas Scramble enjoyed it. Overall, it was a close game with one team collecting the top prize and since 2nd and 3rd were tied for gross, we simply split the pot. For those who questioned how we determined the winners, pay attention to your email and you will get a thorough accounting of how we did it. Winners today were: Yaksich, Wikse, Hohman, Bona - $20 each Smith, Maddox, Hahne - $15 each Caporaletti, Roderick, Fornadel, Keller - $15 each Players went to Leisure World on 6/2/21 and we had 2 winners: Thomas Chicca 2nd Place Team - $35 Mike Caporaletti 3rd Place Team - $23 Next week we have the 2nd Round of the Championship series. It is on WEDNESDAY, June 9th. Tee off at 8:30 be ready to leave the putting green after announcements around 8:15. For those who signed up for Kenwood, we heard back from them, and they have limited us to 10 players, so we have implemented the Lottery system. They will have another date this summer for another chance to play. Have a good weekend!

Next week is a 4-man Stableford event. Below, you will find a new post about the upcoming Columbia Cup matches. Please take time to read it. For those of you who might be new to our group, at the end of the rounds, a lot of guys gather upstairs around the fire pit to either brag about their rounds or cry in their beer. Feel free to join in. Many thanks to Lew for the tight rope he walks trying to balance all of us out for these events. Ian 2021 Columbia Cup Information (As of 5/13/21) On July 12th and Aug 30th, we will be having the annual Columbia Cup Match against Fairway Hills.

HGSGA Update - May 3, 2021 Sign Up Genius Procedures for MISGA away events In order to provide everyone a fair opportunity to play in MISGA away events we will institute the following Lottery process.:
Hopefully this process will allow for a fair opportunity for all our members, new and old to play in some of the MISGA events. With the Covid era, some clubs are limiting the number of players we can send, so this process should give everyone a chance. HGSGA Update - April 29, 2021 President's Message We had a large field today - 71 guys and finally warm temperatures! For our new members, the Championship series is played out over several months. We have 6 events and use the best 4 of 6 to determine our winners. So, even if today’s round disappointed you, I know mine did, there are still 5 more opportunities to improve. At the end of the tournament, we will have a Low Net and Low Gross Champion. Several members have questioned why we are cutting off Sign Up Genius on Sundays, so I thought I would give you the reasoning on behind this.
So, for now we will adhere to the Sunday 8 PM cutoff and anyone who wants to play after the sign up is closed, will be wait listed. Next week we will be playing an ABCD team event. Hoping you will sign up!

Therefore, we will use the following Hobbit’s events as our qualifiers to fill the slots provided to us. ABCD –Tournament to be held on 8/23 at Holly Hills
2Man – Tournament to be held on 9/9 at Norbeck
The 2019 champions, Craig Ostrom & Doug Wilson for 2Man, and Bob Egge for ABCD will receive automatic invitations and will not count against our quota. Also, as in the past, we anticipate being able to fill additional slots as other clubs do not fill their quotas.

Remember to post your scores on GHIN, we will not be doing it for you this week. Next week is the 1st Championship Series event. For our newer members, we hold a series of 6 Championship events spread out over the season. We then take the best 4 of 6 and use those scores to pick both a Gross and Net Champion. It is a medal play event tournament, which means all holes must be finished – no gimmes on putts, etc. See you next week. The weather looks good so no need to bring winter wear! Ian HGSGA Update - April 15, 2021 Two Man Scramble Results We had a great turnout today, 66 players. Despite wet conditions, scores were low, and everyone seemed to enjoy the format.

Ian HGSGA Update - April 8, 2021 Stableford Team Event Finally, a beautiful day for our Thursday golf, and we had a good turnout, 63 players gave us 16 teams.

See you next week, Ian Sumner HGSGA Update - March 28, 2021 Forget the "X" We gave it a try last week and have decided not to use the "X and estimated score" format for holes not finished on the Golf Genius App or the paper scorecard. The only exception to this policy will be when we play medal play. For all other events we will abide by the following: How to enter scores into Golf Genius mobile scoring on your phone?
2021 Rainy Day Format If we decide to cancel an official event, we will look at the weather forecast & conditions the morning of the event, and if we decide to cancel the official event then you will receive an email by 7:30am.. If you do not receive an email, then assume the official event is on. If the official event is cancelled and the course is open, then whoever wants to play can show up and they will be sent out using our existing shotgun reservation – subject to any delays from the pro shop
MISGA Away Events are subject to the host club’s weather policy. You are responsible for checking it on your own. Do not assume the mixer is cancelled, you do not want to be a No Show. Many times, our MISGA Rep is alerted, however this is not always the case. If you do decide to cancel you need to call the host club pro shop and let them know, you can find their number on the MISGA.org Fees for HGSGA events 2021 After checking with Hobbits Pro Shop, the following fees will be in force for the 2021 season. Please be aware that in the past, the Fit & Play and Daily members were given a “senior” discount – this has been removed.

HGSGA Update - March 25, 2021 Soggy Conditions, Hardy Seniors We had a good turnout today despite the wet conditions. The day went off without a hiccup, on time and without slow play, in spite of Cart Path Only. In fact our lead group finished in about 3 ¼ hours. We especially appreciate how everyone used Golf Genius for scoring and when we matched them to the cards we found almost no errors. Next week we begin the official season – which means Prize Money. As a reminder, we will be collecting your $5 cash down at the starter stand, Mark Cardwell will be the one handling the money. Please bring exact change. The format for next week is ABCD best 2 of 4 net. Please signup by Sunday evening. Over the course of the season, we will continue to mix up the foursomes, attempting to have you play with as many of our members as possible. Looking forward to seeing more of you out there next week. Ian HGSGA Update March 17, 2021 President's Message On Wednesday, 3/24 at 11:00 AM we will have a Zoom meeting to answer any questions you might have regarding the upcoming season. Tune in and meet your officers and some of the new members, Here's the link: :https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86875035417?pwd=cUsvNUIrQ2ZBZWtMbmR1WE9PMzJPUT09 On Thursday, 3/25 we will have an unofficial kick off to our season.

It is not optional. HGSGA Update - February 24, 2021 A Welcome From Our President - Ian Sumner I want to take this opportunity to say hello to all our returning and new members. Your executive committee has been hard at work setting the stage for what we hope will be a season that is enjoyable for all members. The following is a quick recap of topics we have discussed. Kick Off Meeting: On March 24th we will hold a Zoom meeting to welcome new members and “refresh the memory” of old members. You will get an invitation via email. Dues: We must receive your dues prior to April 1. If we don’t have them, you will not be included in the playing roster until paid and you will not be eligible for prize money. Dues for new members are $55. Dues for returning members vary. The exact amount can be found by clicking the sidebar button entitled "2021 Dues - Please Check Amount Due." Sign Ups: We will be using Sign Up Genius (SUG) as the primary vehicle for both Home and Away MISGA events. We will be listing the entire season schedule and will open sign ups to those events approximately 2 weeks in advance. For regular home events we need you to sign up by 5pm Monday of that week’s event. For MISGA events, both home and away, we need you to sign up by the Thursday of the week prior. While we are posting the schedule for the season, please be aware that it is a “flexible” schedule that may change based on Covid issues and changes to MISGA events. However, we are fairly sure that our major Championship dates will remain firm. Formats: Based on feedback from approximately half the membership, we will be featuring more “team events” and scrambles. We welcome comments on the schedule and any additional formats you think might be fun for the group – remembering that we do need to be able to set up scoring into Golf Genius. MISGA Events: Bill Duncan has been busy scheduling both home and away events. Some of the clubs in MISGA have decided not to have events this season but others have and will be adjusting to the Covid issue to maintain safety for the players. Here at Hobbits, we are still working out the issue of shotgun starts and whether or not we will have food served. Tee Times: Currently we do not have a decision about shotgun starts. Discussions between Hobbits and CA are underway and hopefully by April we will be able to do so. If not, we are exploring using both the 1st and 10th tee as starting tees. Handicaps: Please double check that you are signed up for the GHIN handicap system. The old MSGA system is no longer used. Pro Shop Check In: They have asked that, if possible, you register your Credit Card with them so that it will speed up check ins. At the current time they do not accept cash. Scoring: We will continue to use Golf Genius (GG) as our platform for tabulating scores and results. It is important that members download the app and use it while on the course for HGSGA events. Also, it will be a requirement that the actual scorecard be turned in at the end of the round (a photo of the card emailed to HGSGA.Scores@gmail.com ). With a little luck, as restrictions around Covid decrease, we will once again be able to collect them inside at the Turn House or Pro Shop. Prize Money: Currently the Pro Shop will not collect cash, we are working on finding a way to collect the $5 Thursday morning prize money. Because of CA's internal accounting system we cannot simply charge your individual credit card for prize money at check in. We plan to pay out winnings via Pro Shop gift certificates to winners. Website: Please continue to log in to the website for additional information. We will use it to post timely information including winners from our Thursday events. You will receive an email each time the website is updated. Finally, let’s remember that while things appear to be getting better, we need to be diligent and practice safe Covid procedures. Looking forward to seeing all of you out there. Ian 2021 Membership We are now accepting applications for our 2021 Season. New members fill out the membership application (click button on sidebar) and send the application with a $55 check made out to HGSGA to Randy Maddox, 10439 Fair Oaks, Columbia, MD 21044. Returning Members, please check the amount of your dues by clicking the 2021 Dues button on the sidebar. Send your check along with your application to Randy at the above address. Application and dues can also be dropped off at the pro shop. 2020 Year-End Wrap Up It certainly has been a unique year at HGSGA with no MISGAs, no shotgun starts, no food, no rakes, partitioned carts, and all of us running around asking “who was that masked man?” Yet somehow we pulled it off and had a good season in spite of the limitations caused by the pandemic. In total, we had 89 dues-paying members. Even though we had a late start and several rainouts, we were able to hold 21 events with an average attendance of 52 golfers. This tells me that we filled a void in these troubling times. The fresh air, the distanced socialization, and the friendly competition made the past few months quite enjoyable. I want to thank the Executive Committee for all their hard work in modifying our operating procedures to accommodate the restrictions. Special appreciation is given to Lew Shipp, our Golf Genius “Genius” who kept us organized and informed each Thursday morning. I also would like to thank Joan Lovelace for her support and advocacy in allowing leagues to operate. The cart guys and the greenskeepers worked extra hard this year. Gene Hayes and Lisa Wynne kept things going inside the “pro shop bubble” and Peter Law was quite helpful as our starter. Finally, I want to thank you for the opportunity to serve as HGSGA president these past two years. It has been a wonderful experience and I enjoyed getting to know each of you. Rest assured, we are in good hands with our new President, Ian Sumner. His previous experience as our Vice President and as our MISGA Representative has prepared him well for the job. With Randy Maddox continuing as Treasurer, Mark Cardwell as Vice President, Rich Roca as Secretary, Lew Shipp as Golf Genius Administrator and Bill Duncan as our MISGA Rep, I believe we are all set for the new year. Thank you for being a part of HGSGA. Stay safe and healthy through these next few months. Get that vaccination and I look forward to seeing you at Hobbits in 2021! Mac Ramsey 2020 Executive Committee

New Slate of Officers Approved Thanks to the over 40 guys who unanimously approved the following slate of officers for 2021: President - Ian Sumner Vice- President - Mark Cardwell Secretary - Rich Roca Treasurer - Randy Maddox We are also happy to have the following individuals taking on responsibilities in 2021: Lew Shipp - Golf Genius Administrator Bill Duncan - MISGA Representative Andy Finkel, Joe Duklewski, and Mike Caporaletti - Assistant MISGA Representatives Fred Chiccone - 50/50 Coordinator Mac Ramsey - Webmaster Funny Money Email Coming Next Week Watch your email for a year-end report on funny money. This email should be to you by the end of next week. 2020-2021 HGSGA Winter Sign-up Procedures Many of you have asked if we could continue to play - weather permitting, after the end of our official season. The answer is Yes. We have been given 10 Thursday tee times for our group to use during Nov-Feb. The slots begin at 9:30 and run every 10 minutes through 11:00 We will use Sign Up Genius to collect a maximum of 40 names. The sign-ups will close every Sunday at Noon - we must return any unused tee times to Hobbits. Once the sign-up closes, you will be assigned to a group with the time slots as follows. It is done based on order of sign up in Sign Up Genius. We will not be involved in changing groups for you, show up at your allotted time or trade with another player on your own and coordinate with the starter. Players Time Slots Check In Time at Starter 1–12 (1st Group) 9:30, 9:40, 9:50 No later than 9:15 13-24 (2nd Group) 10:00 10:10, 10:20, No later than 9:45 25-32 (3rd Group) 10:30, 10:40, No later than 10:15 33-40 (4th Group) 10:50, 11:00 No later than 10:35 These are not official functions; all we are doing is getting the time slots for our HGSGA members. Thus, we will not set up foursomes or declare any format for games. Each foursome will determine their own format. Once your group gathers, I suggest you do a blind draw to put together the foursomes. We will continue to use Sign Up Genius as long as we get a sufficient number of players and monitor it for our group. Let’s see how this works out for all the hardy souls. We will tweak it as needed. Also note that Frost Delays may push tee times out so check with Hobbits, we are not monitoring this.

HGSGA Update – October 22, 2020 Finkel/Duklewski and Wilson/Ostrom Win 2-Man Scramble Forty-four guys showed up on a foggy morning that morphed into a beautiful autumn day to play in this year’s 2-Man Scramble Tournament. Andy Finkel and Joe Duklewski won the net competition shooting a 61 ($20 each). In the gross competition, Doug Wilson and Craig Ostrom led the way with a 61 ($20 each). Other net money winners were as follows: Shipp/Violette 64 ($15 each) Doyle/Mann 65 ($12 each) Thompson T/Hickey 65 ($12 each) Smith/Wikse 66 ($10 each) Caporaletti/Chicca 66 ($10 each) Kokes/Wilcox 66 ($10 each) No tiebreakers today. Since this was a scramble, we will not post any scores to Golf Net. Full results can be seen by clicking the results and stats button on the sidebar and sign in using GGID: HGSGA2020 Important Housekeeping Items As we approach the end of the season, we will be sending you two important emails that will request your reply. The first email will present a slate of officers for the 2021 season. We will request that you review the slate and approve or disapprove by replying to the email. The second email you will receive will concern your funny money earnings. We will be giving you options to receive a check or credit your earnings toward next year’s dues. It will all be explained in detail so do not reply until you get the full explanation in the separate email. Next Week Our last day of league play will be next Thursday, October 29. It will be a 5-club event. This means you will only be able to use 5 clubs including your putter. It should be fun day that will stretch your shot-making skills and creativity. Hope you can join us! HGSGA Update – October 15, 2020 Finkel and Wilson win on Multi-Tee Day Andy Finkel topped the leaderboard in today’s net competition shooting a 59 ($24). In the gross competition, Doug Wilson led the way shooting a 62 ($24). If these scores look too good to be true it is because they are the sum of the 16 lowest scores on the player’s scorecard. In other words, the two highest scores were not used. For those of you that followed today's leaderboard on your phone, you may have noticed a difference in that Golf Genius was programmed to discard the two worse scores in relation to par – not necessarily the two highest scores. Since we billed the event as the two highest scores, our man Lew has gone back and updated our money winner leaderboard based on discarding the two highest scores. Here are the other money winners from today’s net competition: Dave Derheim 61 ($18) Tom Hickey 62 ($16) Doug Brooks 62 ($16) Felton Satterfied 63 ($11) Lew Shipp 63 ($11) Tim Seelaus 63($11) Randy Maddox 63 ($11) Len Moyer 63 ($11) Mac Ramsey 63 ($11) Greg Douglas 63 ($11) No tie breakers today. Scores will not be posted to Golf Net. This means you should not post your score as well. We will send out a spreadsheet with everyone’s score via a separate email. Sorry for the confusion. Next Week – 2 Man Scramble, Free Beer, and Awards Hope you have picked your partner for Big Mac’s 2 Man Scramble scheduled for October 22. It should be a blast. If you want, you can sign up as an individual and we will match you up. After you finish your round, join us on the Turn House lawn for an end of the year socially distanced celebration. This will be a small fluid gathering since we come in at all different times. Your first two beers or soft drinks will be on HGSGA. Awards will be available for pickup for this year’s match play champion, finalist, and bracket winners and our top 3 Championship Series finishers in both the gross and net categories. Hope to see you there! HGSGA Update – October 8, 2020 Egge and Sumner Win 2020 Championship Series Bob Egge successfully defended his 2019 championship (Gross) shooting a blazing 6 under 66 in today’s final round. This gave Bob a 54-hole total of 209 ($100) which was good enough to edge perennial rivals Craig Ostrom 215 ($75), and Doug Wilson 220 ($50). In the net competition, Ian Sumner 214 ($100) held off final round charges from Nick Girardi 215 ($75) and Whit Bass 217 ($50). Ian’s win qualified him to be nominated for 2021 HGSGA President!!
