Highlights
These may be the best scores we have had in a tournament. Talk about tearing it up! I have never seen so many members going low. The course was in great shape and the winners took advantage of the great scoring conditions. Frank Andrick’s guest, Allan Auvil, won two closest to the pin prizes.
Closest to Pin/Longest Drive
