Muskeg Meadows opens 2013 season

A waft of heavy mist and cooler temperatures did nothing to stop Muskeg Meadows Golf Course from opening their 2013 season May 4-5 for the annual Angerman’s kickoff tournament.

“We want to thank tournament sponsor, Angerman’s Inc. and Outlet Store, and everyone who joined us at Muskeg Meadows for our season kickoff golf tournament,” said course manager Shannon Booker. “Heavy mist did not deter twenty folks from competing for first place.”

The competitors for Saturday’s portion of the event were Greg Scheff, Ed Rilatos, Steve Boehlert, Tymon Comstock, Eric Kading, Faye Kohrt, Chris Ellis, Wayne Ellis, Jim Brooks, George Woodbury, Brett Woodbury, Matt Jurak, Aaron Powell, Megan Talburt, Adam Sprehe, DeeDee Blatchley, Keith Herron, Dan Meyers, Arnie Sandness and Kathy Sandness.

Saturday’s 1st place team was Powell, Talburt, Blatchley and Sprehe with a net score of 16. Second place went to the quartet of Brooks, Jurak, George Woodbury and Brett Woodbury who tallied a final score of 24. The straightest drive went to George Woodbury at 8 inches from the line. The closest shot to the pin came from Ellis at 17 feet, 1 inch to the pin.

Heavy fog continued across the fairways, but burned off quickly as seven two-person teams started out the second day of the tournament.

Sunday’s winners were, in 1st place, Kading and Kohrt with a final net score of 27, while second place went to George Woodbury and Brett Woodbury with a net score of 28. The straightest drive went to Bakeburg with 17 feet, 1 inch from the line, and closest to the pin was taken by Ellis at 30.5 inches.

The next tournament at the course is set for May 11-12 when Bobs’ IGA is the sponsor. Signups will be taken no later than 9:45 a.m. each morning.
