 Notables - A little confusion at the event on the 19th hole. All corrected here but due to an audit of the live scoring / card scoring ONLY happening after the event - we had to strip Zoey of his star, had erroneously named the aulderphart of being third ... NOW they are all correct over there on the right.
- We always try to provide some levity and jocularity at these events. Before, during and afterwards at the 19th hole. The goal is never to bring any embarrassment to any one Slammer, so I will not mention who the guilty party is for this occurrence. It was a hot and humid day and all Slammers chose carts except the newbie 3wd, but he was finally convinced. It was so hot that a Slammer who will not be named (but the last two syllables of his four syllable name sound very much like our director), decided that he felt sorry for his ball for lying in the sun all day that he provided shade by parking atop it to cool it down. We know that he is a nice guy BUT his fellow playing partners actually tell the story a little differently. They KNEW better as they helped look for the lost dimpled object for many minutes! It seems the young driver should have let the auld phart (somebody please ask Macdahustla what that is called in Scotland) drive.
- MILESTONE ALERT: Pommie beats Bubba for his 500th career point.
- Much to the chagrin of Potter, I always call this a tough course (average Slammer score here is 94.67) – especially for anyone playing it for the first time. Congratulations to today’s C/D field. More than half of them had their best BCC score of their Slammer Tour career here today, and nobody shot their worst! Of the 35 courses that we have more than 200 rounds at only three (Whitetail, Playa Paraiso in Mexico, & Conklin in Binghamton) have a higher average score.
- There are no Masters to thank (sorry and thanx PM68), no sponsors to mention. The winners are all mentioned in the player stats to the right.
- Signature Hole picture is right below the last notable, and congratulations to NK Bear for getting the dog on the Tour's third hardest par three.
- Pommie is at every event! - When was the last time that you were at an event and didn't hear that name - even if he isn't there. Thank you hole seven with all that rock face on the right - when we hit driver and the other rock face to the left of the green.
 Quotables
- C7 couldn’t get a challenge into C3 so said, “remarkable how Sutty suddenly became popular!” the reply, “What do you mean ‘BECAME’?”
- “gonna ride...anyone wanna share?” “Papa, u drive. I only have a learner's permit........”
- “May get back in if neck/back/golfego recover after a 120” “Golf ego.... If I had one of those I'd never play.”
- "First on the tee with a 10-10-1 record vs his group (by the way - all ten wins are against ..." editor note - make it 11.
- "Pommie - Granite!" new term - see the last notable
- "the second skin is to 'Shoot! I am the only one to par the Chute'".
- "Sutty loves this course and NOT just because he has a strong heart and won a skin on Cardiac Hill!" editor note ... see Mike there are advantages to being the youngest member of the foursome.

Summary
Welcome to the 47th event hosted here at Brockville Country Club. Founded in 1914, and NOT by Potter as he was only born the following year! Today is our 156th local outdoor event of the season. Another new Slammer joined the family and WELCOME to 3wd (NO! It is not three wheel drive - there are 4 wheels on his car). Think of a golf club! We arrived to a parking lot looking fuller than usual, including a large camper parked near the putting green. Hats off to those that took a cab home, last night! “Hey David what is going on?” “Last night was the final event for our men’s night (a BBQ). By the way if anybody is looking for the barbecue it is in between the teeblocks of holes 3 & 11! But I don’t know where the dunk tank has gone to. As for the clowns, I did keep hearing Susan Bradley (Mrs BigGuy), referring to them sitting at our table afterwards. Happy Birthday Irons(15th) & MsDemeanor(14th). ... THANK YOU!

Auldphart |
|
Originally this was written 'he shot like a pro member so maybe he will be a star'. Now officially this is how he collected the first star 17 points ... Those three upset (as C20 he beat C16, C6 & C3) wins earned him 3 points each for nine. One for the birdie (the ONLY birdie of the day for the entire field), which was also worth a skin (2 more pts), and those two dogs were worth 4 more. The final point was for his B score. For those of you following at home that 17 is a very high amount. Did he eat stew before he birdied Mulligan Pond? The kids $ includes this good sport's fine for whine! |

BearCat |

BCC is what is written on the tee block markers. Often referred to as BearCat Course. Today he proved it! Went 3-0 and beat his personal best here by three strokes. He was the only one to make it from the tee in Brockville to the hole in Toronto (hole 4) with a par which was good enough for a skin. He lost his #1 last time out - goes 3-0 and is NOW C7! |
|
Potter |
|
First he is announced as the third star. Then the riotous crowd all yelled and screamed and started to throw things at the OC. WHAT? Apparently I was wrong - YES Kookie and Mulder Grumpy made an error (not just a lie but an outright mistake!). Bearcat nudged out our Brockville Host. Corrections made! Then the post 19th hole audit and Zoey gets stripped. Potter gets a par when he sinks his putt in the corner pocket (hole 14) for a skin and 20% of the skin bones. He also upset those two young guys in his foursome. Who introduced him to a cart? The Super Seniors may have had better luck if they didn't have to drive the Supreme Seniors around for four and a half hours! |
