2024 Alpine Bay Golf – Member/Member Results
We had 42 teams to sign up and play in our Member/Member Tournament. That is a great turnout and we appreciate all of you for playing. The weather was sunny and hot for both days but that is normal for late June.
The festivities began on Friday night as we fed the teams a wonderful catfish dinner provided by Russell Howard. Immediately after the dinner we held our Calcutta. After all the teams were auctioned, we had just over $30,000.00 in the Calcutta.
The tournament and Calcutta was paid back to the top team’s net scores except the Championship flight. There were no handicaps involved in the Championship flight. The tournament format was a Scramble on day 1 and a Shamble on day 2.
We had a tie for 1st place in the Championship flight with scores of 123. That resulted in a sudden death shootout that took place on #18. Moses Ngirailab and Rodney Guy were tied with B G Simmons and Moe Bassett. The shootout was a continuation of the shamble format just like the day 2 format. Both teams made birdie in the 1st round. They both made pars in rounds 2 & 3. Moses and Rodney recorded a birdie again in the 4th round to clinch the shootout and 1st place in the tournament. 3rd place in the Championship flight went to the team of Jeff Bullen and Max Whitfield with a score of 124.
Taking 1st place in the 1st flight was the team of Shane Harris and D W McKay with a net score of 123. 2nd & 3rd was a tie with net score of 124. That was the teams of Hippie & Shane Cleckler and Randy & Austin Burnham.
1st place in the 2nd flight went to the team of Abby Cerwich and Jinks Marlowe with a net score of 118. 2nd place went to Chris Robertson and Hondo Galloway with a 120. Brandon Fincher and Jan Parton finished in 3rd with a score of 122.
The 3rd flight winners with a score of 124 went to Chris Palmer and Steve Willingham. We had a tie for 2nd & 3rd between the teams of Bob & Don Hopton-Jones and Brian Proctor & Don Carroll. Both teams posted a 124.
The 4th flight winner was the team of Kimberly Stubbs and Steven Powell with a net total of 116. Ryan & Brian Smith finished in 2nd with a 122. There was a tie for 3rd place between Matthew & Michelle Whisman and Amy & Mathu Travis. Both of those teams posted a 123.
The teams got to enjoy lunch provided by PaPa John’s Pizza while they watched the shootout and during the awards presentations. Thanks again to all of our loyal hole sponsors. These tournaments couldn’t be near as successful with our sponsors.
I want to thank all of our employees and volunteers for all of the hard work that they provide during these busy events.
Mathu tried to save the Fireball but had no luck.
