The Polar Vortex Open By Mike Siciliano
Photos by Marv Feucht and Mike Siciliano The Fishing Club’s annual Snow Golf, now dubbed “The Polar Vortex Open,” was a lot of fun. I have to admit it was for the very adventurous. Actually it wasn’t too bad. At least the sun was out. We had 10 couples competing and around 5-7 partaking in the fun (eating, watching, and cracking up) Competition Results Five Hole Course Three couples tied for with the low combined score per couple with 26. So there had to be a 1-hole playoff. Results after playoff: 1st place Barb Anderson and Dennis Gantz 2nd place Ken and Roberta Schoenfeld 3rd place Clarence and Mary Grant Couples Fishnet/Tennis Ball Catch Ten balls - one hits with a club, the other has to catch the tennis balls 20 yards away in a fishnet. Again…a tie for 1st place with 2 couples having 6 catches - Charlee Thompson & Fred Reddies and Cliff & Jan Veesenmeyer, so there was a sudden death shoot out (hockey style playoff). Very exciting, the crowd went wild. Results after playoff: 1st place Charlee and Fred Reddies 2nd place Cliff and Jan Veesenmeyer There was also a tie for 3rd pl. (catching 5 balls) with Mitch & Marve Feutch and Tom & Rosanne Stangl, another shoot out!!! Results after playoff: 3rd place Mitch and Marve Feucht 4th place Tom and Rosanne Stangl Last Event…Closest to the PIN Individual event with one drive with a tennis ball, pin approximately 30 yards away. 1st place Dennis Gantz 2nd place Stan Messmore 3rd place Terry Heflin Many thanks to Tom Stangl for being the official greens/snow keeper. Tom used his snowmobile to provide an easier course to walk on. Snow was a foot deep. Hard to walk on and hard to find the balls. Also, thanks to Paul Thompson for being the official score keeper.
