**Tie breakers are determined by the routine described in Section 9 of the USGA Handicap System Manual. Under this method, the program compares scores for the last nine holes, then the last six holes, then the last three holes, then finally the last hole to determine the winner.

** Player does not meet the eligibility for the Championship tournament but competes for medal play.

And here, as they say, is “the rest of the story....”

5 does not = 1

...but you made a great shot anyhow Dawn Satow! We should have an award for anytime someone puts the ball in the hole from the tee box with a single swing! And, in fact we do! But in your case Dawn, counting the two previous attempts that went into the water on #14 was a necessary evil of




golf scoring which negated your “ace.” Nonetheless, that was a very fine shot on your third attempt...

1. The second half of the Club Championship will be held at the “Teal Bend Golf Club” on October 18, 2015.




2. To be eligible for the Club Championships, the member must have played a minimum of two of our tournaments during the year. There were 8 regular tournaments to choose from prior to the Club Championship. This rule was put into effect because, in the past, there were members who never played in our tournaments all year, then showed up at the Club Championships and ran away with it (prizes, $100, trophy, etc.) The club felt it was only fair and in good fellowship that one should participate in a few prior tournaments before playing the Club Championships.

3. Club Championship Awards: Each flight - Men’s “A” Flight, Men’s B Flight & Women’s Flight will each be awarded with a 1st place & 2nd place prize.




4. Any member can play during our Club Championship tournaments and not participate in the Championships but can compete in Medal Play. Example: Mel Yu cannot play at the “Turkey Creek” course, but will play the “Tend Bend” course in October in Medal Play competition (only).

5. Players not involved in the Championships will still be able to place in our regular monthly tournament, win the $$ Hole, CP Hole, and Skins (in the flight their handicap places them in).




6. During the Championships, players will be paired up in foursomes by their Flights. "A" Flight players will play with "A" Flight players. "B" Flight players will play with "B" Flight players, and so on. Players will be paired up by their handicaps during the first half and by the results of the first half for the second half. Those who want to play at “the Turkey Creek Golf Course” or “the Teal Bend Golf Course” and do not wish to be in the Championships can form their own groups to golf if they wish.

Deadline for sign up is October 5th for the second round - Turkey Creek Golf Club. Please signup through our website. Contact May Lee@ [email protected] or 916-391-4309 if you have any questions.




Thank you,May

James was playing a round of golf with the club pro one day and after 18 holes they went into the clubhouse.




James asked the pro: "What do you think of my game?"

The pro replied: "You should shorten your clubs by three inches."

James asked why the pro thought this would help his game.

To which the pro said, "It will help them fit in a trash can!"

A woman goes into the local newspaper office to see that the obituary for her recently deceased husband is published. The obit editor informs her that there is a charge of 50 cents per word.

She pauses, reflects, and then says well, then, let it read

"Fred Brown died."

Amused at the woman's thrift, the editor tells her that there is a seven word minimum for all obituaries.

She thinks it over and in a few seconds says, "In that case, let it read,




'Fred Brown died: golf clubs for sale.'"
