Date

We enjoyed another two-round team event honoring the  PGA yearly events like Ryder and President's cup.  The pairings seemed to work out well and were very closely matched with only one stroke separating teams in most foursomes.  So good work Jack and Tobin!  Special mention should go out to the cafe to get a lot of food out quickly.  The Titans took a 4-3 advantage over the Jesters in the first round ending up  8 to 6 after the final Scramble round.

I hope everyone enjoyed the round. It was really fun for our group.  We did feel a different pressure early on in the rounds and always had a different take on each shot but it was great to see everyone supporting the team and enjoying the 'slings and arrows' of golf's turns of fortune.

Tin Whistle 9.22
Course:
Altadena

Date

We all played Tin Whistle this week instead  of the fake news put out last week that we would play Red White &  Blue.

San Dimas 8.22
Course:

Date

Our outing at San Dimas was fully attended,  with 12 members teeing off on that very interesting course.  We  welcomed back Jeff Gordon, who's been missing from our lineup.  The  weather was very cooperative, staying mostly in the low 80s most of the  time due to some light cloud cover and a steady on-shore breeze. This is  a beautiful course in a great setting, and every hole offers something  different and challenging and should be put on our regular rotation.  Bill Morgan combined first place in low net with a skin to top the  winnings board. Dave Nold had low gross honors, with Bob Harrison close  behind and adding a skin to his take. Tobin took second in low-net, also  adding a skin.  Rob Norman and Jim Stowell took third in LN and LG,  respectively, each with a skin.
