2012 Home Track Open

Where- Grand Prairie Country Club (aka Grand Prairie Golf Course, 3620 Grand Prairie Road | Kalamazoo, MI 49006)

When- Oct 7th  at 3 pm

Cost- $30 includes, green's fees, entry fee to all hole events and a donation to Cooney's kids.
         Added bonus this year is free round of drinks at the Hangar Bar and Grill, courtesy of
         the "Ultimate Wiener" and his side kick "Timmy G". Those two just happen to be the
         wieners of the 2012 Trunkslammer's League. It's good to see them donating their
         winnings to such as good cause.

Rules- Fluff and Duff
          Must putt all putts
          .75% of your league handicap = handicap for the open
           All ties result in a putt off on practice green

As many of you know, we are raising money for Jerry Cox's kids. We lost Cooney to Lou Gehrig's disease a few years back and all the proceeds go towards his children. It's a small gesture, but it's something I take personal; helping a friend's children when they can not. So, dig deep and don't be cheap.

This has always been the end of the golfing season for me. So dust off the clubs one more time so you can get your name engraved on the Cup and walk away in the stylish Green Jacket. Burgers, Beers and Bullshit will be had by all immediately following at the Hanger Bar and Grill. 

I have missed anyone, please forward this to them.  Please r.s.v.p. to me if planning to attend.

2009 Home Track Open
Sunday, Oct. 4, at 2 pm.

Congratulations to this years winner: Randy "No Gout About it" Mark.
We had a threeway tie for first- Randy Mark, Caleb Scheenstra, and Tom Unold - all at net 29.
After a short putt-off, Randy is the winner with Caleb coming in 2nd.
Thanks to all who played in this year's event . . . proceeds will again go to a worthy cause.
From our host, Dave:
That's right Randy " No gout about it" Mark wins the 2009 Home Track Open in stunning fashion. It was a three way tie at the end which forced a three hole putt off. Tom U., Randy and Caleb slugged it out on the putting green. Tom U being the rookie fell after three rounds. He just couldn't handle the pressure. Randy, who battled gout the entire week and was a possible scratch for the Open, stepped up to finish Caleb by the fourth hole. Randy said at the post interviews, " My game was on and so was the gout, but being the true Champion I am. I knew I had it. I'm a mudder and my mother was mudder... The slop had no effect on me, as now I'm a two time Champ at the Open. I wear the Jacket proud... but snuggly"

Final Net Scores-
Randy Mark 29
 Caleb Scheenstra 29
 Tom Unold 29
 Thom Davidson 30
 Tim Galovan 31
 Jamie Cross 31
 Mike Galovan 31
 Dave Hoogerheide 32
 Tom Cox 33
 Marc VanLent 37

Thanks for all that came out to raise money for the Cox family.

Afterwards, all are invited to my house for complementary burgers/brats and beers. Yard game Olympics will be held and a Texas Hold Em' tournament. So show up and let me pay for your golf, food, beer and win my money. If you can't make to the golf then show to eat and play cards or jarts or just to win my money. Respond back to me if your in so I can get a head count and loan. Also, forward this to anyone in the league whose email I do not have.
