Thanks to all who made this a great event… we got a little (?) rain, but you all made it through it.
This is a really interesting format that’s been around a long time, and is probably the "purest" type handicap event you can play. And we got some really great finishes…
Also I was really impressed with the looks of Mt Vintage a really beautiful golf course, hope we can work out some other events here.
Here is report on the results.
CHAMP FLIGHT.. MICHAEL PHELPS and RYAN MCCOOK duked it out for 2 days and MICHAEL was the winner.
A FLIGHT. One of the few flights where we had + points with MATT MOLLOHAN coming in first with +12.1 pts and 2nd JOHN TUCKER with +6.3.
B FLIGHT This flight, like our countries economy, was in the negative column… RUSSELL LAMOY was first with -1.4 pts and 2nd went to JOHN BECKMAN who finished with -4.2 pts.
