La Junta Senior Golf League Results - Aug 20, 2024

There were 46 senior golfers playing nine holes of scramble golf at the La Junta Golf Course on Tuesday. The golfers were split into eight teams of 5 players and one team of 6 players. On holes #4 and #6, the players were instructed not to use a putter (they had to use a different club to putt). But if one team got the best score on one of those holes, they would win a skin. Team #3 got a score of 3 on hole #4 and that was the lowest score of any team, so they won that challenge. Team #3 was Mackie O’Neal, Bev Tucker, Carl Anderson, Shelly Grantham, Gary Armitage, and Sharon Tashiro. The challenge chip on hole #2 was not made. A challenge putt on hole #7 was made by Joy Grasmick, Mike Bauserman, and Mark Weaver.

Next Tuesday we will meet again to play nine holes of golf with the option of using one ball toss on every hole from off the green. Sign up is from 8:15 to 8:30 a.m. Teams are picked at 8:45 a.m. and play will begin at 9:00 a.m.   No one will be added to the teams after 8:45, when teams are picked, so if there is a chance of being late for sign up, give Cathy a call or text at 719-469-0691 so you can be put on the list.
