Notables - Notable – today we can tell you about an EAGLE sighting. NO! I don’t mean the one that was perched on the tree on hole #17. I mean the one that was shot on hole #9. Yes the hole that produced but one birdie for Rulz yesterday (and a skin). Today it was EAGLEd twice (along with six birdies) . Yes that’s correct, and get this, both of these Slammers often do not enter skins. Today they both did and Corporal got his first Slammer eagle about an hour after Rox did the same feat. Those were career Eagles 161 and 162 for the Tour.. I think that this is the third time an Eagle was cut off. It first happened when Ticklar and TeeDub both had one on Gatineau’s #17 way back on July 4, 2010. Then Rio & Dragon, playing in the same foursome did it on hole #15, Fri Aug 3, 2012.
- Gator wins the most bones today with his two skins and a dog for 90, Four less than Rulz yesterday.’
- Mother and child reunion is more than a motion away. When they are playing on hole #14, they hit each other’s ball (HomeSlice did hit first). It only takes Lee-Zeee one hole to get over it. She birdies the hardest hole on the course – that’s right a birdie on #16. Her Culligan doggy on #2 was one of only two pars on the hole. It allowed The Rabbi to win the skin. Guess who is in skins tomorrow!
- For the second day in a row – Primo gets the Culligan dog on #13. His hole?
- After eight straight losses, in her first three events, Kaki gets her first win on tour and jumps from 607 to 60th on the ladder. It felt so good that she went 2-0. You will become a target now!
- Just like yesterday every group had an undefeated Slammer, Eighteen groups at Conklin and 18 undefeated rounds.
- A BIG thank you to my "annual vote" for PRESTON cup. Iron Maiden was very helpful assisting with these stats, enabling us to get the Evolution Physio skins done quicker and handing out those 17 bones per.

Summary
Day two in BINGO! Too much rain yesterday! Therefore we must downgrade from the ninety degree rule to play that most horrendous cart golf decision – CART PATH ONLY. Today’s round is a little slower, and probably due to the fact that so many golfers had to walk back and forth across their fairway. That being said the course rating only dropped a quarter of a point. Lift clean and place was determined for our own fairway. Fret not Slammers – Spring will be here soon. Do you know Conklin? Well today we will use hole 7C instead of the regular seven. Speaking about Conklin, we decided to have our dinner here last night, and most people appreciated the food. I am willing to bet with all of the improvements made at our hotel – maybe Binghamton Riverwalk can have another chance. What about that games room? ...

ChooChoo |
|
Prior to this season, ChooChoo’s limited Slammer Tour action has been in the last two season’s Executive Golf’s Club Championship, and last year’s Bingo trip. He came in with an 8-13 record. Yesterday he won his first ever dog, with a fantastic shot on hole #10, for a birdie and to cut off a Malone skin, playing his two pals. Today he branched out and played a couple of Slammers in the top fifteen, including the top ranked (Smitty at #8) Slammer down here. He successfully defended against Road Warrior. On his thirteenth hole (#1), he upset ShortStack to move into 14th place. On his eighteenth hole (6) he bogeyed and it was enough for an upset over Smitty. ChooChoo becomes the highest ranked Slammer in Binghamton. Tomorrow he is playing his two buddies again. Will RayRay or Bishop go home as top ranked Slammer? Time to go shopping on the Slammer Gear page to collect your $30 gift certificate to be used there. Felicitations!!! |

Malone |
|
Malone (keep tuned in folks - apparently Michael O'Byrne thinks that we should change this name to Kevin) again shines on the course. This is pretty phenomenal when you consider all that he does and ensures gets done, on these trips. Every trip – he gets chosen as a star as far as my old mind can remember. Yesterday he took down the second highest ranked Slammer here, and went 3-0 again today. Along with his three wins today he had three birds, for one skin and his first dog of the season. His wins today were over Rulz (7 and 6), BackFlash (5 and 3), and Sunny (4 and 3). Career wise: that was his second win over BF in as many matches. His dominance over Sunny continued to an 8-1-1 record. His only loss coming under the FGC format. Now Rulz, this was their 34th event, bringing Malone to a 26-6-2 record. Rulz last won on Oct. 19, 2008 at Smugglers. Congrats Kevin we all know that you need some Slammer Gear, go spend your $20 gift certificate wisely! |

Gator |
|
Gator gets three birdies today. Although he had a loss today – it was to an A classer (Cuba) and if you look below it happened on the 18th hole. His other match was an upset 4 and 3 over #13 BearCat. His thirteenth shot of the day landed on the par three seventh hole – and was ten feet from the cup. He drained that for his first birdie of his round. That held up as the Culligan doggy. Eight shots later he has his first career two birdie day, with his 4 on #9. That wasn’t good enough for an Evolution Physio skin as you will read later – five others had a bird and TWO had an eagle. Three holes later – on only his sixth hole of the day Gator has his third birdie and second skin (the last time that he had two skins – one was a par – and that was on Malone’s birthday – last fall). Methinks that a couple of Slammers will be going after that rank in the morning. Slammer Gear page awaits you to visit and use your $10 gift certificate. Lets chat and get matching wear for the Ottawa Sun Scramble! |
