Highlead, Moore Oil win Wednesday

Highlead pulled down the lead, First Security Bank shot the low team gross and Moore Oil the low team net in the first week of play in Wednesday Night Men’s League golfing action at River’s Bend last Wednesday.

Leading First Security in was Mike Baxter, who carded the low individual gross of 37, while Paul Flemmer used his handicap to arrive at the low net of 33.

Ben Mummert, Michael Scharfe and Dan Whittenburg were the other golfers for First Security Bank last week, while RT Brown, Gary Moe, Bary Moore and Larry Eddy were the club-carrying linksters for Moore Oil.

In individual play, Flemmer claimed the flag on three holes, being closest to the pin in 3 on No. 2, draining the long putt on No. 3 and smoking the long 55+ drive on No. 9. Jesse Mosher wads closest to the pin on No. 5, Gary Thompson was closest to the flag on No. 8 and Ryan Ostwald hit the long drive of the night on No. 9.

There were chip-ins a-plenty Wednesday as Ron Beaty and Bruce Sterling stuck one in on No. 4, Baxter put one in on No. 6, Mummert, Rusty Sharp and Moore got theirs on No. 7, Brown dropped one in on No. 8, and Randy Hojem and Rick Hagedorn struck golf from off the green on No. 9.
