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!!

New website a go!!

Live Oaks new website is finally up and running. It's a lot better than our old one for a number of reasons. First of all, it has a calendar that you can search for up to a year. (Not that I'll have all of the info in there a year in advance, but you know what I mean.) There is a link to this Blog. There is news. There are photos. And there is also some back end stuff that makes my life much easier!!
The mass email system is not quite ready, but when it is, you'll be receiving a lot more information from the Club.

Hope you enjoy!!
