Highlights

All our winners bettered their handicaps. Larry Shaw and Roger Dubois fired identical 76’s with Roger winning on the tiebreaker. The greens were very quick. I discovered that the Clemson University golf team plays practice rounds at Pickens because the greens are small and fast.

Closest to Pin/Longest Drive

Jim Cope on #3; Not returned on #6; Larry Smith on #11; Ernie Herron on #17. Long drive from the white tees – Dean Gosnell; Long drive from the green tees – Pete Ellis.
