Shotgun scramble planned for July 29 tournament

July 15 greeted the 25 teams who competed in the month’s Guys and Gals tournament. A cooling breeze was present throughout the round, but it was warmer than usual. The teams of one woman and one man competed for best net scores, four circle holes, and two closest to the pin challenges.

The Turtle Lake Golf Course was in excellent condition, which allowed 19 of the teams to shoot at or below net par. Lowest gross score was 5 under 49 by Bill Lyons and CeCe Feltman. Best net score was 9 under 45 by Todd Chidester and Ann Tran.

Closest to the pin for the men on the eighth hole was Mike Mayfield, and on the 17th it was Noe Alcaraz; for the women it was Janice Turner and CeCe Feltman. There were seven circle holes and 44 birdies.

A flight winners (team handicaps 0-6): Lyons and Feltman, first place; Gene Archambault and Stella Yoon, and Mayfield and Nancy Tye, second.

B flight winners (team handicaps of 7-9): Chidester and Tran, first place; Ron Steele and Turner, second; Dennis Mc-Monigle and Bert Thompson, third; Alan Sewell and Lynn Baidack, and Young and Hae Lee, fourth.

C flight winners (team handicaps of 9-18): James Farr and Sue Sloan, first place; Walter Kim and Pam Smith, second; Yoon Sup and Young Sil Yoon, third; Alcaraz and Vivian Ceballos, fourth; Terry Thrift and Marilyn Hewitt, fifth.
