The Golf Report: He's BACK....Happy Memorial Day.....Mertz aces four...Go Knights at State!

Happy Memorial Day to all!

Mertz aces # 4 on 5/17

It was a gorgeous night for golf on Tuesday night. After a 345 day medical leave of absence Bud Light's Steve Sinnard was finally cleared to play. His eagerness to prove to his team that he was back and ready to compete was evident from the start. Armed with two glasses of ice cold keg beer compliments of Craig Mertz from his hole in one last week Sinnard took dead aim at Aaron Ahrendson. Sinnard topped Ahrendson and was joined by Bud Two Troy Auen as the only two winners. Mike Schulz was beaten by Jake Buelt and Bud Two toppled one of Larry's grandsons Kyler Ludwig. Another graduate from the Hyvee Store Director's golf academy Brad Auge took care of this publisher in a seesaw match. There were nothing but smiles in all the isles on Wednesday as Auge informed shoppers of his triumph. Bud Light and the law firm battled to a 4 - 4 draw.

Good Luck to the Kuemper Knights Golf Team at State!

Papa Joe Pick was beaten by Jerry Janson. Pick was over heard on the tarmac in front of the pro shop before league saying how he should get some scores posted. Really Mr. Pick why not adopt the post when play attitude? Where are the 50 rounds from the Arizona desert? Just an observation from the desk of this publisher.
