‘Shootout’ at 108 Golf Resort

Golfers play three fun tournaments as season comes to a close

The 108 Golf Resort’s year-end wind-up was held under sunny skies on Oct. 14.

Golfers played in three different tournaments – Horse Race, Big Hole, and an annual Shootout.

Thirty-six players participated in the Horse Race tournament, which saw highest scoring players eliminated at each hole on the front nine.

In the group for 12-and-under handicaps, John McNeil finished first, Chris Stevens was second and Dave Robertson took third.

In the 13-and-over handicap group, Jim French took first, Ervin Hannah finished second, and third was Spence Henderson.

Cathy Waite won the ladies group, followed by Kathy Reid and Gloria Corno.

On the back nine, 40 golfers played in the Big Hole tournament, where the holes were doubled in diameter to about the size of coffee cans.

Low-gross winner on the men’s side was Stevens, followed by Tom Lavigne and Denny Rowe.

Low-net winner was Shawn Reid. Bob Weiduwilt was second and Al Smeds took third.

Maureen Menzies was low-gross winner for the ladies and Judy Scarrow was second. Low net was Reid, followed by Shelley Declare.

The 108 Golf Resort Annual Shootout saw 55 members pay $20 for three balls to try for closest to the pin on No. 10 for prizes.

At six feet and six inches, Stevens was closest and won a membership for next season. At six feet and 11 inches, Shelley Larson was second closest and won free golf passes. Tony Morete landed seven feet away from the hole and won a free driving range pass for next season.

All throughout the 2013 season, local golfers praised the condition of the golf course.

“We’re hoping it’s not a fluke and we’ll see about it next year,” says 108 Golf Resort general manager Jeff Kendy.
