MGA 2022 Season ending Dogfight

2022 Season Ending MGA Dogfight

The 2022 season ending MGA dogfight was held this past Saturday. There was a MGA meeting prior to the dogfight where rules changes proposals were presented. A ballot will be prepared and all MGA members will have an opportunity to vote. If any rules are changed, the new rule will take effect during the first dogfight of 2023.

 Breakfast and lunch was furnished by the MGA and both were wonderful. Thanks to all the clubhouse staff that made this happen.

We had 46 members to participate in our season ending MGA dogfight on Saturday. The field was divided into three flights and they were selected by their current dogfight points.

Golfers with playing with 30 points or higher were in the Championship flight. Golfers playing with 24 points to 29 points were in the 1st flight and golfers playing with 23 points and lower were in the 2nd flight. We had 13 in the championship flight, 16 in the 1st flight and 17 in the 2nd flight. Each member paid a $20 dogfight entry fee and the MGA matched the pot for a total purse of $1840.00.
