Thanks to our donors and sponsors - Bob Muhlbauer, Terry and Wade from the Carroll Cycle Center, Ike Auen Distributing, Papa Joe Pick, Brad Hempstead, Mid Iowa Ins & RE and Sharp Funeral Home. Thanks to all the staff in the pro shop, clubhouse and on the course at Brooks National Golf Course. 


So long from Okoboji and See you next year

A nice night welcomed the golfers in the Men’s Supper League at the Carroll Country Club!

Carpet One Floor and Home continued their winning ways with a 7-3 beat down of Westside State Savings Bank. All winners for the carpets except the head carpet himself, Colin Bierl. John Sturm, Brad Pick and Brad Hempstead beat Aaron Ahrendsen, Billy Beck and Justin Yetmar respectively. Brad Hempstead was low gross with a 32 on the back nine! Justin Yetmar was closest to the pin on 17.

HD of Carroll shattered the plate glasses of Carroll Glass 6-2. HD’s all-world head cycle cleaner Wade Adams and the Head hog Terry Ruchti were winners for the cycles beating Keith Pottebaum and Evan Koster. Benton Snyder and Head Glass cutter Andy Reiman both won.

I never knew that PAR was so easy to beat! Sharp Funeral Home beat PAR 7-2. Cable Chad Kanne and the hottest golfer on the planet Pat Greteman were winners. Numbers Bobby Muhlbauer and Giddy Up Wyatt Haukap tied.

America’s team was led by long-time subscriber, former top local amateur, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz and CK Curt Kirsch beating Champion Chrysler 6-4. Clothier Wade Wilke never missed the middle of the fairway and beat Mouthpiece Mike Franey. Bud Two Troy Auen and the farmer Clint Cummings tied.

Champion Ford showed respect to their elders and tied Stiff Sticks 4-4. Magic Mike Nelson the only winner for the sticks. John Baratta the only winner for the car company beat Bud One Jim Auen.

Graddy’s Tomatoes edged Full Swing Golf 5.5-3.5. Tator Tot Tim Gute and Tomato John were winners for the growers. Ryan Lynch was the only winner for the swingers

OH BOBBY beat Anytime Fitness 5.5-3.5. A subbing Tony Schultes the only winner for OH BOBBY and Cody Forch the only winner for the gym rats. Easy Ed lost!  


Welcome to Hugo and his staff. Most of the time change comes with unforeseen obstacles. I urge all of us to be patient as we grow together. At the end of the day, the ultimate goal is to make the CCC a better place.  

Congrats to Corbin Borelli on his Carroll City Championship!

Sharp Funeral Home buries Michelob Ultra……Heim wins for the first time and Kasperbauer Cleaners bows out of league!

 


Tears rolled from Ultra Nation! 

It was a somber night as Supper League’s most popular team Michelob Ultra was demolished by the caskets of the Sharp Funeral Home 7 to 1. CK Curt Kirsch played well but Cable Guy Chad Kanne came out as the victor. Windstar’s Pat Greteman was truly a star by clobbering Bud Three Steve Hans Auen. Greteman shot a great round of 38 in the victory which in normal weeks would be low enough for low net. The head casket himself Kyle Atkinson wasn’t complaining about anything including high handicaps this week as he took care of Mouthpiece Mike Franey.  Bud Two Troy Auen tied Peterman Tony Pietig. The tie and Auen’s closest to the pin award on #8 was the only points for the Ultra. The beer team dropped to third just ahead of the funeral home team and the Carroll Glass Company. Security Mike Schulz and Long time subscriber, former top local amateur, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz were not in action.

HD of Carroll was the team of the night pounding a man short OH BOBBY. All winners for the Harleys…..Head Hog Terry Ruchti, Wild Wade Adams, Jamming Joe Pawlosky and Jerry Janson were all winners. Adams was the low net individual on the back 9.



The Harleys sit atop of the league 1.5 points ahead of Carpet One Floor & Home. The carpets beat Supper League’s most mature team Stiff Sticks. Larry Doc Sporrer keeps his MVP hopes alive with another win for the sticks beating Jon Sturm(he is so far ahead in the MVP race). Fairway Frank Comito tied Colin Bierl. Brad Hempstead and Jace Pettitt beat Trusty Mike Nelson and Tony Schultes respectively. Bud One Jim Auen cited fear as the reason he opted out of the league to attend the College World Series. Brad Hempstead nailed the longest putt on #18 to do something for the team.  

Teflon Jon Heim?

Carroll Glass had the best night in team history by beating Champion Ford 11 to 1 with the help of long-time subscriber, former top local amateur, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz’s son Nebraska Nate Mertz. Captain Jon Heim was all smiles as he won for the first time this year by beating Tyler Putney. This was the second win of the day for Heim as he beat Chad Kanne in the season-long match play prior to the league to advance out of the pod. Very interesting that Captain Jon had all the time in the world for after-match interviews. A confidential unverified source tells this report that the Lake City Times from Hazard County is coming to town to do a documentary on the success of Heim. In addition to the documentary look for Heim on Saturday as he is being honored as the head clown at the Western Days rodeo. Eric Wunschel didn’t need all of his handicap to win his match.  Mertz was low gross on the front nine since his Dad was not playing and longest putt on #9. Wunschel shot net nothing for low net honors. No winners for the out-of-gas cars. 

Westside State Savings Bank beat Full Swing Golf with the low gross shooter Matty Boy Fleshner. Bill Beck and Karl Christensen also won for the bankers. The only loser for the bankers was Aaron Ahrendsen who lost to Brett Pietig. Drew Munson knocked it close on #17.  

The hot weather strengthened the plants of  Graddy’s Tomatoes giving them the strength to beat Champion Chrysler 6 to 3. Tomato John beat Tuxy Wade Wilkie, Rowdy Rick Grote beat Bill Schwabe. Monument Man Loren Boyce was the only winner for the cars.

Anytime Fitness earned two points from par which was the previous Kasperbauer Cleaners team who officially withdrew from Supper League prior to action in week 10. Ryan Filloon was the only winner for the gym goers.

Overall the Michelob Ultra team would like to reinsure Ultra Nation that they are only 2 points out of the lead. It's go time. 

Welcome to new subscribers Tyler Big Country Auen and our bartender Laura Sweeney!

Happy Father's Day!.....Member Guest a huge success…..Bud 8 loses in league debut……Haluska loses to the Ultras again!!!!!!!

 




The Golf Report Report being written at 38,000 feet


This report comes to you from the mobile office of The Golf Report 38,000 feet in the air aboard Southwest Airlines flight 854 from Fort Lauderdale to Chicago. The captain has turned on the fasten seat belt sign and the beverage service has been suspended due to turbulence.

Mother Nature has been actively involved on Tuesday nights this year but Supper League must go on even if it was a hot night with cattle warnings issued in Carroll County.

Your Michelob Ultra team fell to second place Carpet One Floor and Home 5.5 to 4.5 and still sits atop the Supper League. Long time subscriber, former top local, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz once again beat the boy in a close one! Better luck next time Nater! Bud Three Steve Hans Auen the only other winner for the Ultras beating Shellie’s husband Sean who was sending taunting texts prior to the league to this publisher. This behavior has continued on from the member guest shenanigans of the Happy Haluska Boys. This marks twice now that SH has subbed and faced the Ultra team. Clearly, if someone needs to call him to sub they better check who their opponents are because his nerves just can’t handle such above-referenced competition. The head carpet remnant Colin Bierl beat Bud Two Troy Auen. Brad Hempstead topped the recent 2022 Kuemper Catholic graduate and newest member of the Ultra team Tyler, Big Country, Smalls, Auen. He has more nicknames than points he has scored for Supper’s League's most popular team. Security Mike Schulz was unavailable for action as he was enjoying a procedure at St. Anthony Regional Hospital that is recommended for those of us around the age of 50. CK Curt Kirsch requested an excused absence so he could spend some quality time with Kimmy! The Ultra team remains 2.5 strokes ahead of the flooring company who now offers electric fireplaces. One has to wonder where Commercial Savings Bank’s safety deposit box director Kevin Milligan was. It does take a tole losing to the bank CFO time and time again. Sources tell this report that he may have even scheduled a vacation to avoid squaring off with the Long time subscriber, former top local, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz.

HD of Carroll clobbered Supper’s League most mature team Stick Sticks sending the sticks into dead last. This is the lowest standing in team history! Larry Doc Sporrer was the only point getter for the sticks getting one point from no one as the cycles played one Harley down! Wild Wade Adams and Head Hog Terry Ruchti were winners for the cycles. The Stiff Sticks has scheduled a team meeting to evaluate their future so this report will be sure to provide updates on that meeting. Bud One Jim Auen will have a very well-organized spreadsheet available I am sure.  

Champion Ford barely squeezed the juice out Graddy’s Tomatoes 6.5 to 4.5. Josh Sporrer and Farmer Boy Clint Cummings beat Tomato John and Dr. Decay for the cars. Tyler Putney tied Tator Tot Tim Gute. A sub from the famous Pettitt stable of golfers Jace Pettitt was the only winner for the Tomatoes.

Everyone likes Tator Tots! 

Full Swing Golf blanked Kasperbauer Cleaners who appeared to forget that Supper League was still on Tuesday nights. John and Drew Munson, Brett Pietig and Ryan Lynch were all winners for the swingers. Maybe the cleaners need to add a team recurring calendar reminder to remind them that the league is on Tuesday nights.  



Sharp Funeral battled to a pillow fight tie with Anytime Fitness. Numbers Bob Muhlbauer and Windstar’s backup bus driver Pat Greteman beat BV Brandon Vonnahme and Badding Constructions head nail puller Tony Badding respectively. One of Papa Joe’s boys Adam beat the head casket himself Kyle Atkinson. This report will anticipate a well thought excuse about why he lost. Austin Scott was also a winner for the gym rats. Speaking of Papa Joe where is he at? The last time he was seen by this report he was just south of the four green at the Carroll Municipal Golf Course discussing life events with The Legend Joel Harris.

Champion Chrysler played one cylinder down and drove all over OH BOBBY 7 to 1. Monument Man Loren Boyce, Clothier Wade Wilkie and Koster(could not read Brian’s writing) were all winners for the car company. Mike Soe the only point getter for OH BOBBY. Losers included Easy Ed Cutler, Brian Widdell and Dr. Ron Cheney.

Westside State Savings Bank topped The Carroll Glass Company. The Glass Company’s recent slide in the standings brings into question the motivation that team Captain Jon Heim is bringing to the team. Head Teller Bick Beck, Karl Christensen and Matty Boy Fleshner were all winners for the bankers while the head glass cutter himself Andy Reiman was the only winner for the plate glasses. John Heim provided no after match comments to explain the team's performance(mainly I guess because this publisher was basking in the sun in the Dominican Republic).

Drew Munson and Craig Mertz shared the low gross on the front 9 with even par rounds of 37.

Wild Wade Adams was the low net individual on the back nine with a nice round of 42.

Tator Tot Tim Gute was the low gross individual on the back nine with a one over par round of 35.

Burnt Tator Tot and Tyler Putney shared back nine honors for low net.

Nebraska Nate Mertz who lost again to his Dad knocked it closest on #8

Josh Sporrer was closest to the pin on 17

Jon Heim did something for the team and nailed the longest putt on #9(still lost his match)

No Name sunk the longest putt on 18.

Supper League Standings! 


A big shout out to the committee, Carroll Country Club staff, grounds crew and membership for hosting a very successful member guest tournament that was enjoyed by all! Thanks to the Lidderdale Country Store and Baratta’s Catering for providing the food. 

Champions Mike Franey and John Dukes

Wade Wilkie scores first hole in one.......Dukes fires a shot.......Ultra rolls with Schulz as MVP in his 2022 debut!

 

Wade's first hole in one! 


Oh what a night it was last night at the Carroll Country Club! Long-time golfer and Carroll Country Club member Wade Willkie scored his first hole in one on the par three #4. He described the moment with joy and was very grateful that it finally happened after several close encounters. Congratulations Wade!  

A couple hours before supper league the trash-talking started for this weeks upcoming member guest golf tournament. John Dukes fired a shot at the Happy Haluska boys that was heard from more than three hours away. The email thread fizzled into a four-person text messaging exchange of taunting, name-calling and opinions being given. Rumors that were not confirmed by this report indicate that the Haluska’s petitioned the member guest committee to be removed from the flight that included Dukes and this Mouthpiece for this weekend's tourney! The irony struck like a bolt of lightning as the Sean Haluska strutted his stuff onto the tarmac in front of the Carroll Country Club pro shop to sub for the Anytime Fitness team. Not in his wildest dreams did he think that he would be playing this Mouthpiece and Supper League’s most popular team Michelob Ultra.

It was a huge night for the Ultra as they clobbered the fitter Anytime team. Mike Schulz dusted off his clubs for the first time this year and took down Austin Scott! Schulz showed incredible touch with his chipping irons which proved too much for the marketing CEO! Long-time subscriber, former top local, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz showed exactly who is the best golfer at the Commercial Savings Bank by beating Kevin Milligan. A dejected Milligan said in a post-round interview “What do you want me to say he is just better.” As this publisher left the table Milligan mumbled something like “He plays 20-30 holes every day he should be good.” Keep practicing Mills! Bud Two Troy Auen rallied to tie Cody Forch. You could cut the silence with a knife as Mouthpiece Mike Franey immediately took control of the match and beat Sean Huluska with authority. Enough said! 

A great night for your Ultra team with a 9-1 win. With the win, the Ultra team stretched the Supper League lead to 3.33 over Carpet One Floor & Home. Mertz won low gross and low net.

The carpets beat Carroll Glass 6-2. Keith Pottebaum was the only winner for the glass company who were playing without their General Manager Andy Reiman. Brad Hempstead beat Benton Snyder, Colin Bierl beat Lidderdale’s Brad Stork and one of Papa Joe’s twins beat John Heim. Captain Heim was visibly discouraged and said “I am going to get a fishing pole and take up fishing.” Better rally the troops, Andy!

Sharp Funeral Home playing one short tied 5-5 with the tomatoes of Graddy’s Tomatoes. Peterman Tony Pietig and Pat Greteman were winners. Rowdy Rick Grote and Tator Tot Tim Gute were winners for the tomatoes. Pat Greteman nailed the closest to the pin on #8.  

Champion Ford flattened the tires of HD of Carroll 8-2. Jerry Janson was the only winner for the cycles. John Baratta, Josh Sporrer and Farmer man Clint Cummings were winners for the car company.

Full Swing Golf rudely disrespected their elders and spanked the Stiff Sticks despite both teams playing one man short. Wade Pettitt came out of the shop to beat Larry Doc Sporrer, Ryan Lynch beat Colin Shultes. Fairway Frank Comito and Brett Pietig each score one point for their teams. Pettitt was low gross and low net.

Champion Chrysler robbed the Westside Savings Bank 7-2. Hole in one Wade Wilkie, Monument Man Loren Boyce and Koster were winners for the cars. Josh Sporrer collected the closest to the pin on 17.

OH BOBBY beat a half full Kasperbauer Cleaners team 5 -2. Easy Ed Cutler and Brian Widdell were winners. Giddy up Wyatt Haukap won for the cleaners.

John Baratta and Rowdy Rick Grote were the longest putt winners. 


The 2022 version of the Member Guest Golf Tourney kicks off with practice rounds tomorrow and fierce action Friday and Saturday. Thanks to the committee who have put in a lot of work to make this event a success. Welcome to Carroll players!

Rest easy Norgy....Mike Nelson aces #4.....the newest trick in golf....formal complaint in the works!

 



The Carroll area lost a giant of a man with a caring and giving heart on Sunday. From the first time that I met him to the last time I saw him a couple of weeks I admired the way that he treated people including myself. You always felt better after talking with John. He was a larger than life figure who ran one of the area's most successful businesses for many years. He made countless contributions to various individuals and causes! As his obituary says he lived each day like it was Christmas! My heartfelt condolences go out to his family and friends! Thanks Norgy for being you! I will always remember you for bringing a positive light to this world. 


Breaking News! Multiple sources are indicating that a couple of scoring errors may have been made last night that could affect the overall league standing. A formal complaint is being filed and this report will update you next week as details become available!

On a warm night at the Carroll Country Club your Michelob Ultra team got the job done against Carroll Glass. For the first time ever I witnessed a new type of trick to affect the outcome of a Super League match. As this publisher and Curt Kirsch approached the last hole in a tightly contested match the dynamic duo of Keith Pottebaum and Brad "Lipper" Stork pulled the we ran out of gas in our cart trick. Ironically we were at the furthest point away from the clubhouse just yards away from Ed Tomka's house. So the caring hearts of your Michelob Ultra team became distracted producing a topped drive and a loss of hole and match for this publisher to LCS's top man. Busch Light Curt Kirsch tied Pottebaum with a par on the last hole. The match ended peacefully with all golfers shaking hands with the evident smell of gas on Pottebaum. Long time subscriber, former top local, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz beat the glass company's general manager Andy Reiman and Bud Two Troy Auen beat Benton Snyder(Happy Birthday Benton). The captain of the Carroll Glass team is Jon Heim who started harassment via text messaging early on Tuesday morning with members of the Ultra team. An investigation has been launched into Heim's conduct. Magic Mike Schulz was not on the roster and is working on his game to make his season debut. Bud Three Hans Auen subbed for Champion Chrysler. Overall the victory keeps Americas's team at the top of the league. 

Carpet One Floor and Home leapfrogged the cycles of Harley Davidson. The floor coverings sit just one point behind the most popular Supper League team. Mills Milligan, Brad Pick were winners. The season debut of Colin Bierl came in dramatic fashion as Easy Ed Cutler three-putted the last hole to give Bierl the win. The loss comes after the greatest night in OH BOBBY history last week. Milligan was awarded the low net on the front nine along with Giddy up Wyatt Haukap and Craig Mertz(which be protested).

HD of Carroll dropped a spot to third with a loss to Westside State Savings Bank. AA Aaron Ahrendsen, Willy Beck and Carroll Municipal Golf Course League President Matt Fleshner were winners for the bankers. The only winner for the cycles was the head hog Terry Ruchti who fired a 37. AA, John Munson and Ruchti all shared the low net on the back 9. Fleshner drained the longest putt on #9. 

Sharp Funeral Home clipped Champion Chrysler by one. Techie Volquartsen and Colton Hackfort were winners for the caskets. Darin Putney and Wade Wilkie were winners for the cars. Jon Heim who as you remember is the captain of the Carroll Glass team who lost to your Ultra team subbed for the caskets in a losing fashion. Monument Man Loren Boyce was not offering any quotes this week to be included in the report.

A half-full Anytime Fitness team was beaten by the swingers of Full Swing Golf. BV Brandon Vonnahme nailed the longest putt on #18. Welcome to the league Brett Pietig and Ryan Lynch. 

Kasperbauer Cleaners had a career night with a 7-2 win over a short Champion Ford team. Wyatt Haukap, Tony Badding and Matt Hackfort were all winners for the cleaners. Scott Schon lost his match but did collect a closest to the pin on #8. 

Graddy's Tomatoes nipped Supper League's most mature team by one. Tomato John and Dr. Decay Nick Fangman were winners for the tomatoes. Bud One Jim Auen was the only winner for the sticks. Larry Doc Sporrer knocked it close on 17 and made a 50 foot putt during the round that was in all the way according to confidential sources.

Week 2 in the books……..Ultra prevails…….BIG win for OH BOBBY!

 



Mother Nature calmed the wind down for week 2 of the Carroll Country Club Men’s Supper league and we are hopeful that she will warm the temperatures up soon.

League leading Michelob Ultra remained at the top of the mountain by smashing the tomatoes of Graddy’s Tomatoes. Long time subscriber, former top local, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz beat Tomato John, Mouthpiece Mike Franey crushed the Tator Tots of Tim Gute and Nate Mertz beat Dr. Decay Nick Fangman. The younger Mertz beat his dad by one and secured low gross on the back nine. The older Mertz nailed the closest to the pin on 17. In a post round interview the older Mertz was asked about being beat by the kid. “The way I see it we both won our match, he was low gross and I won closest to the pin so we each won the same amount of points for the team and I do quote.” This publisher can read between the lines and realizes that it will bug him getting beat by the left-handed swinging son! Good work Nate and better luck next week Craig. Bud Three Steve “Hans” Auen was as cold as the temps losing to Rowdy Rick Grote. Bud Two Troy Auen was still celebrating his 30th wedding anniversary, Magic Mike Schulz was unavailable and Busch Light Curt Kirsch claimed to be out of town.

The Ultra Team is joined at the top of the league by HD of Carroll. The cycles trounced the swingers of Full Swing Golf. Head hog Terry Ruchti, Produce Tom Duff and Jamming Joe Pawlosky were all winners for the cycles. Ryan Lynch was the only winner for the swingers. Pawlosky scored the closest to the pin on 8 and the head hog drained the longest putt on 9.

Carroll Glass fell out of the top spot this week with a narrow 6-4 win over Anytime Fitness. Lidderdale’s top chef Brad Stork and John Deere Benton Snyder were winners for the glass company. Ryan Fillon was the only winner for the fitness team by winning his match and collecting low net individual on the back nine. The losing interim captain of the team Jon Heim refused to comment on the night. Where is the head glass cutter Andy Reiman oh I see now he was playing for Carpet One Floor & Home He is still listed on their roster and is also listed as the captain of the team. One has to wonder if there is a changing of the guard on the team and Jazzy Jon Heim is involved somehow. This report will keep you updated on this breaking news.

Carpet One Floor & Home blanked Champion Chrysler 8-0. Jon Sturm, Bone cracker Brad Pick, Mortgage Kevin “Mills” Milligan, Glass Andy Reiman were all winners. Captain Colin Bierl still has not made the roster for the carpets. Monument Man Loren Boyce commented after the round that it was not a good night. 

The caskets of Sharp Funeral Home played Champion Ford where each team was one man down. Sharp won 6 to 3.5. Cable Guy Chad Kanne and the Nic Volquartsen were winners for the funerals. Josh Sporrer did the heavy lifting for the car company by winning his match, being low gross and low net. Only one player from the Champion stable won in week two so we will look for big things from them next week when they take on Sharp Funeral Home and Carpet One Floor & Home.

A career night for OH BOBBY by shutting out the Stiff Sticks 8.5 to 0. What a way to treat your elders! Easy Ed Cutler, Chris Giguere, Brian Widdel and Dr. Ron Cheney were all winners! Looks like the good Dr. may be getting his handicap back in line or at least using the right one just saying. This was the best night in team history according to a jubilant Easy Ed!

Finally the wind layed down......Michelob Ultra to the top of Supper league and I-Club Banquet coming soon!

 



Mother Nature finally cut us a break last night and allowed the 2022 Men’s Supper League to get underway.

It was a hot start to the 2022 golf season for your Michelob Ultra Team. Long-time subscriber, former top local amateur, highly successful and very veteran golfer Craig Mertz, Mouthpiece Mike Franey and Bud Three Steve Auen were all winners. Franey secured the closest to the pin on #17 for the team. Busch Light guzzling Curt Kirsch was upset by Leon Muhlbauer in Muhlbauer's long-awaited win. Muhlbauer will now be placed on the DL to prepare for his upcoming surgery. Good luck Leon! Magic Mike Schulz had a blister pop sidelining him for the first week. Bud Two Troy Auen enter the golf portal for one week and accepted NIL money from Graddy’s Tomatoes. Bud Two suffered a loss to Cody Forch. The Carroll Country Club’s most popular team is tied for the lead after week one. Sean Canuso was saddened by not being listed as a member of OH BOBBY! Hint Hint!

Joining Ultra at the top is Carroll Glass. A subbing Nate Mertz, Benton Snyder and Golf Cart Eric Wunschel were all winners against the short Full Swing Golf team. Wunschel was awarded the low net individual on the back nine. John Munson beat Lidderdale’s Country Store head chef Brad Stork. Captain John Heim was inactive but in constant instant messaging contact with his team. It looks like Heim will be a candidate for captain of the year.

The caskets of the Sharp Funeral Home buried Westside State Savings Bank 6-3. Nic Techie Volquartsen and Windstar Lines dynamic driver Pat Greteman had their way with Bill Beck and AA Aaron Ahrendsen. Karl Christensen was the only winner for the bankers. New CCC Clubhouse manager Wade Pettitt was the low gross on the front 9 and could only tie his match.

Anytime fitness sweated it out with Graddy’s Tomatoes 5-4. Tomato John was the only winner for the tomatoes. Austin Scott and Cody Forch beat Tator Tot Tim Gute and Bud Two Troy Auen. Car Wash Todd Pettitt was missing in action and Rick Grote was playing in the dirt. Tomato John smashed his tomato into the hole for longest putt on #8.

Kasperbauer Cleaners were run over by the Harleys of the Carroll Cycle Center 7-2. HD of Carroll is the third team tied for the league lead. Head hog Terry Ruchti, Joe Pawlosky and the assistant oil jobber Todd Kanne were all winners. Pete Juergens tied Wild Wade Adams to provide the only points for the cleaners.

Carpet One Floor & Home slipped by Champion Ford 6-5. Jordan Sporrer the MVP for the Fords. Sporrer was the low net on the back nine. Kevin “Mills” Milligan and Brad Hempstead were on their game for the floor store. Hempstead was the low gross on the back nine. Josh Sporrer nailed the longest putt on #18 which measured 6’ 3”. Where was team captain Colin Bierl?

Campion Chrysler and Stiff Sticks had a pillow fight and settling on a 4-4 tie. Trusty Mike Nelson and Tony Schultes picked up wins for the CCC’s most mature team. Dr. Svensson and Darrin Putney were winners for the cars. Putney is the listed captain of record for both Champion Chrysler and Champion Ford. This publisher wonders if this will increase his chances for the year long Captain of the Year Award?
