Cedar Chase – Reserve Division Version

The last week of May, the regular division played Cedar Chase and the first week of June it was the reserve division’s turn. If you read the summary for the regular division, you will remember that I promised to compare the results of our two divisions. Was one clearly better than the other or was there little difference? You be the judge!

For starters, with a three-day total of 269 golfers, the reserves edged the total of 255 golfers by the regulars. Incidentally, those totals are not the highest we have ever had for a tournament week. The lowest score was a 62 by the reserves and a 65 by the regulars. The reserves also had the most sub-70 scores with twelve versus ten for the regulars. Most of those sub-70s were in flight “A” but both divisions did have some sub-70s in flight “B”. Looking at the average score in each flight, the regulars had lower averages than the reserves in flights “A”, “B” and “C”. The only flight where the reserves had the lowest average was flight “D”.

The real star of both divisions was Joel Felan. One Wednesday, May 3, Joey had a hole-in-one on the par 3, 8th hole. It was his first shot of the day!

The results from Cedar Chase are now available.
