In my latest post I listed the incorrect dates for the Club Championship.
The correct dates are FRIDAY MARCH 13 & SATURDAY MARCH 14.
My apologies for any confusion.
Thank you Alan for catching that error.

Skins Game
Skins March 9
Well guys
A predicted, the size of the Skins competition will be quite small, so I guess we just go out there and have a good time with your partner.
As before , your cart partner is your two man team partner.
It was decided at the Skins roundup on Friday March 6, if there happens to be an odd number of players, the single will draw a partner before the start of play, from the team he is playing with. That decision will be made at game time.
The game for the day will be on the card. Play your proper tees, fix your ball marks and enjoy the day. There are no gimmies, all balls in the hole.
Have fun or play well, but do both if you can.
Please note: Skins will resume on Monday, March 16, after the Club Championship on Saturday March 13 & Sunday March 14.
Good luck.
Brad
Skins March 6
Well gents
Overall , the two man teams seemed to work to everyone’s satisfaction, although a discussion was had, and a recommendation was made that we try one net ball.
So, being the accommodating guy that I am, we are going to try it.
This Friday we will play two man teams, one net ball, with no gimmes. All balls must be putted out.
Because the inevitable charges happen, I would ask all players to please show up at least one hour prior to your tee time to be ready to play.
Thank you for your cooperation, your participation, and your valuable input.
Getting involved makes things happen!
Play well or have fun, unless you are lucky enough to do both .

Two Man Skin teams
Skins March 2nd
Ok guys, its time for a little variety to be put into the skins game. nothing really crazy.
This Monday (by a number requests) , we will be playing with TWO MAN teams. Your cart partner is your partner.
We will be playing with full handicap.
For the first time playing this format we will count two balls net on each hole.
We will use the 666 format for scoring on the team game.
Single players (if any) will play with PEPE.
Here is the TWIST!
ALL BALLS ARE IN THE HOLE!
NO GIMMES!
Please note: to maintain a proper flow on the course, maximum score is three over par depending on your handicap.
Skins will be determined as usual.
Play from your proper tees.
Things might get a little crazy with this format, but what the hell, lets try it and see what happens.
The results could be interesting.
Thanks
Brad
