Scores were pretty hot in Week 1! Dan Allen, the local Goon himself set the season bar at -12, taking home 1st prize from a 9-player A Pool pot. Dan's -12 is unofficially 1005 rated. Congrats Dan and way to set a high bar in Week 1!
In B Pool, Mike B and Naz battled it out and finished tied at -9 to split the pot 5-player pot. Mike did it while also carding two bogeys while Naz played bogey free.
Jeremy Lukas was the lone wolf in C Pool. Hopefully we get some more competitors out in the weeks ahead to give him some competition.
We had a great A pool showing with 9 competitors. I ended up taking 2nd (-9), David took 3rd (-7), and Anthony and Frank Tied for 4th (-6).
In typical Goon fashion, each stroke was unofficially worth 14 rating points. It's birdie or die out there folks.
In terms of hole statistics, hole 15 (6 short) was the easiest on the day, playing -0.8 strokes from par, with 12 birdies and 3 pars. Hole 16 (7 right) wasn't far behind at -0.6 from par. Holes 3 and 4 were the only ones to play above par on the day, both tallying a single birdie and 5 bogeys to average +0.27 from par.
We'll be back at the Goon next week! I'll be away at NADGT Nationals in Austin, TX along with Allen, David, and Frank. If you have questions on the day of, look for Dan out on the course.
