Welcome to the Great Lakes Senior Golf Association
These Guys Are Quick!
Each day this week, Orchard Hills GC had exactly 100 golfers on the course. At times, numbers like this result in slower play. But this week everyone was at the course shortly after 9:00 allowing us to get started by 9:15. The early start was not the best part. Several groups completed play before 1:30 and every scorecard was turned in before 2:00—both days. We noticed recently the pace of play at most tournaments has improved. Let’s try to keep this going because every one of our remaining tournaments has 110+ entrants.
In addition to swift play, the scores posted were not too bad either. Each day, a subpar score was required to win three of the four flights. In fact, not just subpar but sub-70. Even the scores in flight “D” were among the lowest for that flight this season. The low score for the week was a 62 (10 under par) by the team of George Blanco and Doug Hoving on Wednesday.
The results from Orchard Hills are now available.
