The Wire

Welcome Back Silver Lake. Silver Lake is the first course to open this week, Doug Johnstone has the place in fantastic shape. The Lake is back for club action this Sunday. LaTourette and South Shore is still up in the air at this point. Esquire will continue their season at Royce Brook on Saturday. South Shore will head back to Cream Ridge. LaTourette will try to get rolling at Joe Raff’s Hudson Hills.

Esquire held their Memorial Tournament at Royce Brook and although it had a different feel, the thought was there. President Steve Schwab Jr is looking to take things to a new level and he didn’t stop at the Moment of Silence. It was a minute long snapping John Falcone’s record 25 seconds back in 2011 for the 50th Anniversary. Lynn Sexton did an amazing job setting up a post round lunch. There was a 4 way tie for 1st Place. The Arena Brothers, Sal and Larry, Mike Reardon-Rich Puntillo, George Wonica Jr – Andrew Padilla, and Bobby Marino – Anthony Mascia all tied with a 9 under 63 score, which was played Best Ball 100% Handicap. Rich Conte extended his winning streak to 4 events. Stay Tuned for a Handicap Adjustment...... Job well done by the committee.

South Shore played on Fathers Day at Pebble Creek. They had some matches going on and Rich Barrett (the People’s Choice) defeated Money Man Steve Mattei. Sources close to the situation said Mattai was popping off like usual, but found the fast greens of the Creek too much to handle. Paul Ulanich Sr who shot 71 wasn’t getting Father’s Day sympathy from Paul Jr. The young man fired 69 on this day. Mike Marotta along with Someone else played nicely as well with 72’s. Barrett and Steve Schwab Sr netted 70’s. This week they will continue with some more matches.

Hope to see you all on the Veranda Soon
