 Notables - Notable ONE ... TC update. Precious, Tooth Fairy, & Chubs have a new member to the class of 2013. Rookie Legal Eagle is the latest member of that class. He was warned that to win this championship – he would need to shoot a C score. Ironically had he of done so – he would have moved into that class. No fear – neither was worthy of such lofty heights today. He took down Grumpy! They shook hands after 15, and then the quote below was heard often. See quote #2.
- Notable TWO … Gator – our first star was presented with his commemorative Slammer shirt for his 100th career event. Be prepared to see that bright yellow on the course soon. After setting the rookie standard last November (59), for most events, he now has a new record. He’s the fastest Slammer to play 100 events. He did so in 450 days, eclipsing the previous record by ten days. By moving to the top of the list, he has removed Kricket from the top ten (868 days). Which rookie, sophomore, or third year player will be next to join this list – removing ProZee and his 829 days?
- Notable THREE … Although she is still without a nickname {Clear Mountain is leading the race over Mrs T}, Julie has now played her second event, and recorded her first win – see the third star notice to the right. Come back sooner – it has been 85 days since Edelweiss. Good luck tomorrow in the Ottawa Sun Scramble.
- Notable FOUR … The Culligan Doggies were collected by rookie Fodder. He got the job done but realized that there are a couple of hiccups that need to be fixed. He acknowledged and I look forward to him being the Doggy Master again – remember rookies – try it sometime. He handed those bones out to Wolfman for #4, Pistol Pete #11 and a pair to Bookie for #8 & #13.
- Notable FIVE … That same Bookie stepped up at the last minute to be the Skin Master and once again did a great job – THANK YOU! See the chart to the right to see who he gave 21 Dynamic Physio & Chiro bones to.
- Notable SIX … Group one teed off and walked down the fairway. They represented 900 career events among them. The next group had 23 between three of them and Turtle. He was tasked with ensuring that they kept pace. How did he do? Look at the first quote below and see, that one day after having his best ever Slammer score – he continued with another great round, today, MERCI Tortu.
- unNotable SEVEN … plus thirteen on the par threes? AND THAT with a par on the first one.
- Notable EIGHT … Your drive goes into the water immediately off the tee. You tee up another. Same result! So we used to walk down the fairway and hit our sixth shot (from where the drive would normally be). Do we anymore? What about a par three? I know that it has happened and yes if you are putting for a six on a par three – do your opponents really care? What about the field? What about the Tour? Consistency? I bet that there are different stories out there – so please send me an email and let me know the rule. Grumpy@slammertour.com
- Closing NOTE ... when you are there on Friday - remember to read your bill on the 19th. The service fee is already on there - whether you want to add an additional tip or not. Much discussion about it - and NOW YOU KNOW!
 Quotables
- “Turtle is a great leader!” “He kept us in line.”
- “Nice shot Champ!”
- “Hey Pistol, is that a misfire?”
- “There are no shortage of lawyer jokes.” “May even be more than there are jokes about Grumpy as a golfer.”
- “Right THIS way? Or right THAT way?”
- “Hey Grumpy, look at that – they knew you were coming and are clearing out more space for you.”
- “WOW! I had an eight before I got to the ladies tees.” “Ha ha ha!” “What are you laughing at?” “You might as well hit from those tees – you are dressed like a lady.” (this one was written twice and the other was “I am hitting behind the ladies tees” “No surprise, you are wearing ladies clothes.”
- “What happens on the course stays on the course.”

Summary
The Ottawa Sun Scramble is on day three - The Promomedia "B" division is happening today - so this is a prime opportunity to have a seedy event {C/D}. However only 70% of the field were seedy. There is much talk of having these officially, but in the past they haven't worked. Maybe tis time to try again. I want to point out to you all – to read notable eight on the left. I just found this out and wonder is it true? Are others aware? I wasn’t … BUT it makes sense.

Gator |
|
Three and OH! A "B" score, eight below his median, and an upset over Bookie, who owned a 9-3 record vs Gator prior to yesterday. First to go down was Kids CLub on the 11th. Then he beat Raker's bogey on 13 to even their career at 1-1-1. His five over front nine was only one stroke more than Clang, for the lead at the turn. What record will fall next? Congrats on your Ottawa Sun Scramble round - next year NO LEAFS fans! I heard that you looked real good! |
|
Intruder |
|
So the day is full of successful defences. Four of the groups have a Slammer defend successfully thrice. Tough to choose but Intruder gets the nod - as he comes in as #8 and leaves with that same ranking, playing in the group that had the #1 Power Ranking. Those three defences were against Aggy & T-Bird who both share Intruder’s scoring median. The third defence was against Fodder. Although it isn’t an upset due to rankings – It is one because Fodder is an “A” player. Hey Intruder, how was your putting today? Being a stat junkie – I will report that you led the field in ‘reported’ three putts. The Kids thank you. |

Pele (r) |
|
Goes to Edelweiss for her inaugural event. Eighty five days later comes out and gets introduced as being on a date. Maybe doesn't like that comment, and beats Grumpy on the eighteeenth hole for her first ever Slammer win. She jumps from 688th to 104th on the ladder. There are two choices for her name and I have Pearls on it - as her Ottawa Sun Scramble partner tomorrow. |
