CONDITIONS
It was a cool night with the temps in the high 60s to low 70s. We had a NE wind blowing at around 10-12 mph. The course was in great shape.

NOTES

• Only 3 weeks left of the year.

• Next week is a 5:15 start

• Paula “Momma Borowski” Borowski  and Jamie “JamieMac” McDonald shoot a great round of 60 and take the win in the Women’s Division. Thanks for coming out this year and battling.
 
•   Dean “Bangham” Bingham and Zack “Finsky” Finwall win the intense three way tie playoff and claim the victory in the Pro/Adv Division. The teams shot great rounds of 41 (-13). This was a huge win for Zack because now he sits only a couple points out of a top four finish for the second half and he takes sole possession of third place overall


• We also had a three way tie in the Am/Nov Division with the teams shooting great rounds of 43 (-11). Battling in the darkness and winning the intense playoff were the Musicians Mitch “Mad Dog” DePirro and Cory “Drummer Boy” Simonich. This was a major victory for these guys. Mitch now sits in a tie for second for the second half and he is only one point out of first. He also is only one point out of a top three overall finish. Cory keeps himself alive in both the second half and overall standings. He needs to keep placing in the next three weeks.   

 
• BADA BOOM BADA BINGHAM. Dean Bingham hits the trifecta! He wins and hit an ace on a money ctp hole. That’s about as good as it gets.

• Races are heating up with only four weeks left. I can hear the trash talking already.
