Swen, Teller, Flio, Bates, Lukey, Chico, Murph, McDonough
packed up Teller’s van with golf clubs, clothes, pink sleeping bags, beers,
laptops, and strapped the beer dye table to the roof, set to take on Spring
Meadow Golf Club, Fox Ridge Golf Club, and Lake Winnipesaukee. We dropped Sunday River GC from the schedule
without choice as the course was closed due to winter damage. Thanks to Big Time Teller and his
connections, we got out at the exclusive Lake Winnipesaukee and what a treat
that was. In short, this was a
phenomenal weekend where everything was left on the table, literally for some,
and we all probably needed to get the heck away from each other after 3 nights
and get back to reality. Some highlights
from the trip:
- Bates opens with a 1 under par 70 at Spring Meadow
- Some 60 year old dude makes his first hole in one behind us at Spring Meadow with Murph yelling for vodka sodas
- Team Woburn (Flio, McDonough, Chico, Murph) dominate Team Bentley at Lake Winni, led by Murph’s smooth 75 (kid was striping it, this guy is good)
- Both Murph and I eagle the 1st hole at Lake Winni by driving the green on the 344 yard par-4
- Kyle joining the crew at Lake Winni
- McDonough and myself taking down the house at Oxford Casino, hitting big on black 26
- Bruins defeat Blackhawks in OT Game 3 Stanley Cup
- Tiger has no chance at the US Open and guys are shanking it out there; not a single birdie on the 18th at Merion all weekend
- Listening and watching the US Open in the van; resorting to Bates’s cell to get audio of Mickelson’s disappointing finish after Swen’s laptop battery ran out
- Justin Rose wins at +1 on a course under 7,000 yards
- Luke chipping it off McDonough’s head at Fox Ridge
- Chico and Flio losing credit card roulette at diner and Buffalo Wild Wings, with Chico buying out for the game at Buffalo
- Eating competitions, non stop Bates-McDonough dollar bets (like the truck one)
- 6 guys at one black jack table
- Bates wins longest hole one with 15+ pace putt
- $20 Tiger-Phil bets
- PBR glasses
- First father’s day for Swen and Teller
Great golf shots.
Great golf courses. Great
competition. Great company. Great weather (70s and sunny everyday)
Cheers,
Flio
