An Unlikely Scramble




Lyle, Raggio, Riva vs. Dick, Alan, Wade 

With jackets on and expecting the predicted blustery winds and cold, it was decided with unanimous approval that a Scramble format would take the day. Playing in record time with both teams decidedly insufficient even to truly threaten sub-par, the day ended in an even tie. 
PAR for both teams!!  
I can only speak for the team I was on—and I must admit, not once was I able to get off the tee—Riva started in excellent fashion, only to go retro. It was, alas, only Lyle whose tee shots found the middle of the fairway and gave hope to the threesome. On the 16th, I grabbed Lyle’s arm and asked, “Do you smell it?” Lyle replied, “It wasn’t me …”  “No no no no,” I sprang back, “805, can you smell it?!” Lyle politely put his nose to the wind and slowly nodded. “Yeah, it’s the hops!”
What a fun day (lie). The format was wonderful and we should do more of it—when I’m not suffering from Golf-Tourette’s!

36 holes of golf and both teams end in par—amazing!
