Great, it worked!! We are out cutting greens right now, and it's not too bad. The greens are soaked but we are getting a decent cut. We've double cut them today so they'll be rolling good. See you when you get here!!
Hello from the golf course. I just set up to send blogs from my iPhone. This should mean fewer gaps btween posts.

For the benefit of Ms. White
A benefit tournament will be held for Iris White on September 3 at 12 pm. Iris is our long-time cook (and face of the famous LOGC cheeseburger) who contracted breast cancer earlier this year. She has faced a long road of surgery, chemotherapy, and, now, radiation that has rendered her unable to work. All proceeds from the tournament will go towards her medical bills and personal expenses.
If there were ever a worthy cause, this is it. Iris is like a second mother to me. She fed me, scolded me, laughed with me, and taught me how to be a good person while growing up out here. I actually wish there was more we could do, but this is a good start. I would love to see all of our current AND former members out to show her just how much we care about her.
Call out to the Golf Shop for more information.

Joel Richardson wins Club Championship
MC golfer Joel Richardson won the 2009 LOGC Men's Stroke Play Championship yesterday with a two-day total of 146. Tom Massey and Dustin Lunceford finished one shot back. Congratulations to all the flight winners, and thanks to all for playing.
In other tournament notes, Roosevelt's Revenge is back on the calendar in it's traditional New Year's Day slot. We are also looking into having our fall tournament October 31 - November 1 and going back to our Match Play 4-Ball format. Stay tuned for updates!

Massey leads Club Championship
Tom Massey fired a 70 yesterday. 2 birdies, no bogeys. Yes, no bogeys. I'm as shocked as you.
Massey's a pretty good player. But no bogeys!?!
Good showing by a number of people in round 1. Terry Blalock was 1 under standing on #16 tee. His 74 finish was still his career round in the tournament. Joe Perkins, Tim Shaw, Frank Cline, and Dustin Lunceford all played good Saturday.
On the flip side, there were some disappointments. Doug Hutton, Jon Johnson, Les Carter, and Marty Mays all had less than stellar rounds. A lot of that was inconsistencies. Poor Marty had two 8s and a 7 on his card.
Oh, and yours truly was the largest underacheiver of the day. If I couldn't chip and putt, I might not break 100. Brief synopsis of my round. I knock it in the ditch on 1 and make a good bogey. All pars until a 3-putt on 8 and a birdie on 9. One over at the turn. "Not bad," I thought. Bogeys on 10, 11, 13, & 14 suddenly had me thinking, "Just break 80!" Eagle on 15 and burn the edge for birdie on 16. Then disaster strikes. Bad club selection on 17 plus 3-putt plus three wood in the ditch on 18 = double bogey, double bogey finish. Ouch!!
Hope everyone plays good today!!
