Random Colourful Commentary
Typos and odd writing courtesy of your fellow Slammers!

Orange Crush: Always smiling, always positive, fun to be around, TC Ladies C Champ and Sun Scramble runner-up.

PointZero: Is there a better gentleman on the Tour? Always has good supporting comments for his fellow players. He truly loves the game and practices and improves every year. He would be a player in my ideal foursome on any given day. His swing is unconventional — an everyman’s swing that is built out of rubber and he has found a way to hit hybrids from any distance. He has the perfect demeanour on the 19th hole. He always stays around. Always smiles and laughs. Joins the stage but doesn’t dominate it. And he is a super active photographer and posts and shares his images. He doesn’t blow his own horn, so his chances of winning may not be as high as others, but this year he has my vote!

Stevie Ray: My favorite person to golf with on ST. Great sense of humor... all around nice guy!

Malone: Don't know him that well... but if he didn't do his job... my 60 rounds a year would probably be down to 35-40.

IronMaiden: Wonderful OC, great competitor, a pleasure to play golf with, a pleasure to socialize with, and always willing to answer questions and just make everyone feel welcome. She doesn't move the needle of the Slammer Tour... she is the needle!!!

chill: that girl comes out even with a messed up foot/knee, etc. Think that's pretty great.

Clang: Always in good spirits and a great player who can fit in with anyone from Open to D-Division.

KidsClub: 90+ events played, regular OC, always there for a good talk on the 19th hole, played well with 59% win percentage.

ShortStack: What would the tour be without stacker? Solid year of golfing. He makes some incredibly great shots and put up solid rounds.

Grumpy: What can you add to this esteemed gentleman’s repertoire? He always has some great comebacks, neat stories of ST history and milestones.Great embassdor for the Tour. Unique dude.

Steel Crazy: You can’t dial down the enthusiasm with this guy! He is always so excited to play golf and be a part of the Slammer Tour. He really doesn’t care if he wins or loses… um… yes he does, but he humbly accepts defeat. Sure am glad he found a good chiropractor so he could enjoy more rounds. And let’s talk about those chocolates. Yum!

Skeeter: A gentleman. A fun player. Encouraging regardless of the situation. Always a #1 pick to play with. Positive for the Tour.

Blue: Friendliest competitor, humble player with terrific game, finished second in A-Division.

Mulder: Steve is pretty awesome. Always even-keeled, a little sensitive, but forever smiling. He is kind and gracious, has become addicted to the Tour and plays as often as he can. He has become an OC which really pleased me! A true gentleman who contributes to all aspects of the Tour.

About Our Sponsors

Bill "Billiards" Ryan and his lovely wife, Carole, graciously supplied The Tour with the Preston Cup.

About The Cup

The Preston Cup was named after the Ryan family's dog, Preston. While he wasn't the best-looking, nor the best-smelling nor was he the friendliest dog around, he was fun and tremendously personable... and those are the traits of the Slammer of the Year.

Remember, the Slammer of the Year is voted on by your peers, so work your magic and make some allies.
