3 Club Scramble......

After yet another postponement, we managed to get in the 2nd club event of the year at "the Dog".
The weather forecast for Saturday was not favorable, but Sunday looked promising so we moved it up a day.  But guess what.....once again the forecast was wrong!! Go figure..Oy! What was supposed to be a sunny day in the 60's , was a cloudy day in the 40's......
But 28 of us headed out on to links armed only with 2 clubs plus our putters to see what kind of score we could bring in.  As I said in a previous post, I think most of us were surprised with the winning score.  8 under took first prize...followed by 7 under.  I think this tournament gets many players rethinking their club selection on many a hole. Just what we need, more stuff in our heads standing over the tee box....Yikes!!  But at the end of the day, after revisiting each shot hole by hole, and the what ifs, and what could of's over a few libations, while watching the pros show us how it's done at the Masters...the day was a success.
For this I am grateful for many a reason....
Givin the many tragedies occurring in the world right now, and most recently the events at the Boston Marathon, I feel blessed to be able to be working with, and surrounded by a community of friends and family who still believe in the American way....Work hard, be strong, do onto others as you would have done to you....and make the most of each day.  God's not making any more, so enjoy each one.
And remember, it doesn't cost anything to smile....pass it on...
