Club Championships

This past weekend I took part in the Club Championship weekend at the PGCC. It's an event I look forward to each year as it gives golfers a chance to compete with other members for bragging rights in each flight. It's several mini tournaments within one event if you will. The top dogs battle it out for the overall championship and then chumps like me do their best to fire a couple of rounds in the low 80's to claim their respective flights. The ladies have their own divisions and the Jr's as well.

I find it fun to follow the action on what's going on in all the different flights and watch your fellow club members come down the 18th green. This year long time member Greg Walsh won the overall Championship in a one hole play-off with young gun Tanner Hunt. Greg made birdie as they re-played 18 just moments after coming in tied.

If you are a member of a golf club be sure and sign up for events likes these. They are a lot of fun and who knows you might have a good weekend and win the bragging rights for at least a year.
