Over the Hill gang plays tee for two

Just a different kind of tee for two.

The locally famous group of gregarious golfers known as the Over the Hill gang went at each other with a friendly game of two-person scramble at River's Bend this past sunny Monday morning.

Playing the two-person format the best, Al Luckow and Darrel "Torgy" Torgrimson captured first place honors with a 24, followed by the Ron Belger-Chuck Manry duo who scored 25 and the Larry Eddy-Dennis Gripp combo who totaled 26.

In other play of the day, Sam Bernhardt found the bottom of the cup with the long putt on No. 10, Gary Thompson rolled in the long putts on Nos. 11 and 12, Bruce Haflich sent the long putt home to its maker on No. 13, Mike Normandin was closest to the pin off the tee on No. 14, Scott Garr smashed the long 70+ drive on No. 15, Ron Belger earned long putt honors on No. 15, Carter Meyer sank the long putt on No. 16, Russ Wood putted in the long one on No. 17, Ted Sonju scored the long putt on No. 18, Dave Tallant ripped the long men's drive on No. 18 and Sharon Pound pounded the long ladies' drive on No. 18.

Belger (No. 10), Larry Eddy and Mike Smith (No. 11) and Ron Sharp (No. 18) all made chip-ins during Monday morning's round.

The keepers of the greens and fairways of River's Bend, the players of the Over the Hill gang will return to the scene of their golfing crimes for more fun in the sun next week, weather permitting of course.
