Thanks to all for showing up for Dan Puetz Sr Day. Dan is a lifetime member, past president and treasurer for the Men’s Club Board, and has captained the Seattle Cup. Thank you, Dan!
For the most part the weather cooperated. However, expect to play preferred lies at our next event. The course was muddy in spots.
Results are in. Congratulations to Jack Hartley with low gross of 72, despite a balky putter. Karl Meier shot a 5 under low net of 65. Nice play, Karl.
Jon Rue holed out on #9 with the shot of the day for a gross 2 and a net ace.
For next year we will consider limiting the blue flight to single digit handicaps only, and double check that the gold flight handicaps are matched to the correct divisions.
One player was DQ’d for using the elevation-adjusted feature on his rangefinder.
October’s event is a Stableford on Saturday, October 21. Registration opens tomorrow.
Fall Field Day is the final qualifier in 2023 for the 2024 Gross Match Play Championship. Six players have qualified for the sixteen spots: Jay Clark (2023 Gross Sr SP), Ryan Coghill (2022 Gross SP, 2023 Gross SP), Dave Foreman (2022 Gross Sr SP, 2023 Summer FD), Jack Hartley (2023 Spring & Fall FDs, 2023 Gross MP), Kyle Miller (2023 Spring FD), and Mason Phalen (2022 Gross MP). The remaining spots will be filled based on the best scores from the blue tees in the 2024 Spring Field Day.
Nice Job with Pace of Play! The slowest group still had 8 minutes to spare.
