Alton led the final field of the regular season with 
a 77.

Rock led the way with a 78 on a rain filled day at 
one of the Pirate's great golf course.

On a day when Tiger Woods held his competitors at 
bay, Art Terry showed up and did the same leading the 
way with a good round of 78 on some fast greens.

DP and Dennis battled hard in an effort to seize 
control of the second flight.  Both led the way today 
shooting 83.

Today was a warm day as Rock led the way with a 79 
followed by Mike T with close second with a 81.

Today was a great day for playing and only 9 players 
showed.  Dennis Scott led the way with an 81 and Cal 
Womack followed with an 83.

Today was a nice warm day as the players came out to 
play Cranberry from the back tees.  Alton led the way 
today with a 73 follow closely by Rock (75), Mike T 
(76), Mike F (78) and Evan (78).   

Today was one of the hottest days that we played all 
year.  Rock led the way with a 78.

The Tournament Player led the way by going out with 
33, but coming back in as Norman Brice with a 42 
shooting a gross 75.  TP was followed closely by Rock 
and Mike T with a 77 and the Big E shot his best with 
an 82.

Today was a great day to play and Alton and The 
Tournament Player did just that leading the way with 
79s.

The GREENS at Village Green were so slick that Rock 6 
putted from 3 feet and many of his fellow players 
found the greens just as slippery.  Even with the six 
putt, both Rock and Calvin Womack led the field with 
an 85. 

Alton Jolly and Mike Thomas can out of gate fast 
shooting 78 and 79 respectively as the Duffer's FedEx 
Cup just got underway.

Today was a very nice day to play and the course was 
in wonderful shape.  Rock led the field with a 79, 
followed by Mike Thomas (81)as the practice season 
concludes with play today.

Today -- was a great day for scoring Dr. Fussell (77) 
led the way, Russell (79), Dr. Baker (79) and Alton 
(79).   Two eagles were carded one each by Fussell 
and Baker.  Good playing guys as we near the end of 
our warmup season.  It looks like Russell is playing 
himself into the champion flight, but don't tell him 
that he is playing well.  Dave Powell is hoping that 
his fine play continues for at least another week.

Today was a great mother's day as 14 Duffers accepted 
the challenge that Suncrest Golf Course presented.  
Rock led the way with a smooth 77 followed by Mike 
Thomas with a 79.  

Please note that Cranberry and Riverview dates were 
corrected.

On a cold spring day at Birdsfoot, Alton Jolly led 
the way with a smooth 78 carding a 1 under par (35) 
on the back 9.  Russell Drake is also making a push 
towards the top by shooting an 82.  Good playing guys!

Dr. Fussell, really torched the field with a 76 and 
Alton was a close second with 79.

Finally, we got to play and play we did! 

Dr. Purdie (Birdie) came out of the gate with a great 
front and succumed to the heat on the back.

Call by Thursday with intent to play:

Fox Run -- Today was rained out.  Memmbers should be 
aware that the months of April and May will be used 
to establish Duffer's handicaps.  Handicaps will be 
used to establish player's flights and subsequent 
competitors within the flight.  Handicaps will be 
displayed by clicking on the "STATS" option and 
panning down.  The "AVE" will represent the Duffer's 
handicap which will only include scores played as a 
club.  Members shown in the various flights are 
projected until after May.

wide margin.

On an extremely hot day the last Sunday of June, the 
Tournament Player (TP)led the way with a cool 79 
aided by 3 birdies.

Oh, you don't know who TP is -- what a shame -- 
Norman "TP" Brice.

Michael Thomas led the way with a 78 and Russell 
Drake shot his best round todate with the Duffers.  
Good playing guys as the Duffers won the 4-ball 
tournament in Ohio.

On a hot and sunny day, Mike Thomas led the way with a 
79. His score could have been a lot better if he could 
play the par5's.  He had four birdies, but played 
the par5 at 8 over par -- good playing anyway Mike!

Russell Drake won the raffle drawing this week and 
correction to was made on the Yankee Run winner, it 
was Rock versus Ducky

best score of today with an 84.

Dr. Purdie McGrath was the lucky winner of the raffle 
drawing.

Rock lead the way at Tom's Run with a 81 on a very
