Golf League Results

Though there was no LW Golf League play on May 13, 10 golfers braved the cool conditions at the 5,600-yard, par-70 Meadowlark Golf Course in Huntington Beach on May 16. The morning was overcast for most of the round, and the dampness made putting inconsistent and the fairways challenging. Only five scores were at or under par, but there were six birdies.

All scores are net (gross minus handicap). A Flight handicaps are 0-19, while B Flight are more than 19.

A Flight: First place: Sam Choi, a very well-played 7 under 63, plus two birdies and fewest putts; second: Jim Goltra, an excellent 4 under 66, plus two birdies and closest to the pin on the 150-yard 16th hole; third: Gary Stivers, a nice 3 under 67, plus a birdie; fourth: Larry Hillhouse; fifth: tie between Dave LaCascia, Fujio Norihiro and Chris Lankford. Closest to the pin on the 130-yard TK hole was Lankford.

B Flight: First place: Bob Munn, an outstanding 4 under 66, plus a birdie; second: Gene Vesely, a terrific 1 under 69, plus fewest putts; third: Lowell Goltra.

The Golf League plays at four courses, all within 15-20 minutes of Leisure World. The courses the group plays are often full, so advance reservations are available via a sign-up sheet at each round.

There is a prize pool for each round that players are not obligated to enter. Rewards are given for low net and fewest putts in each flight, birdies, and closest to the pin on two par-3 holes. Holes-in-one and eagles (2 under par), although infrequent, are generously rewarded. If interested, contact Gary Stivers at (714) 313-3697 or Dave LaCascia at (801) 674-5975.
