Men’s Night 7/28, Match Play Deadline, Shamble Sign-Ups

Men’s Night 7/28 — Shootout Back 9 @ 4:45 PM

For Men’s Night this week, the 3rd edition of the 2022 Shootout series is here! For our Shootout format on the Back 9, all players meet on the 10th tee at 4:45 PM — please be a few minutes early so we can organize everyone’s Back 9 course handicaps. 
As a full group (think 25-some), all competitors play #10 together (please mark your ball 😂). The low 9 net scores on #10 progress to the 11th tee. A chip-off will be used to break any ties for who proceeds to #11 (top 9 low net from #10).

On holes 11-18, we eliminate 1 player with the highest net score on each hole: i.e. 9 competitors play #11, 8 competitors play #12…all the the way down to 2 players on the 18th hole. Chip-offs decide tied-for-high-score holes.

The last man standing after #18 has been played is the Shootout winner.

For this week’s Shootout festivities, once again, our special guest Shootout referee is back—current Springfield Golf & Country Club member, 2019 Stearns Cup Champion, former MGA Competition Chair, fantastic match play opponent, and all-around great guy—Mr. Mike Lyons. Mike will handle all handicap calculations, rulings, and chip-off decisions for elimination.

MGA Monday Mashup: A-Team, Men’s Night 7/21, Match Play, Shamble

A-Team Wrap-Up

Two Sundays ago, the NGC A-Team matched up vs. Piedmont Club and collected 7 points in a 7-11 loss and, over the weekend, the team completed its final two matches of the WMGA summer competition. On Saturday, the team took on Trump National DC and battled to a 7.5-10.5 final tally. On Sunday, Washington Golf & CC was our final opponent of the year and, in some hard fought matches, NGC came away with 5 points. NGC’s 19.5 points collected total over the 3 matches this season was a big step up from the total of 7 points from 2021. 

Thank you to all the NGC staff who helped to make the matches we hosted at home a success!

Players start with a negative number of points (based on 18-hole course handicaps) then add positive points during their round. The idea is to get from the negative to the positive, clearing your “hurdle” by as many points as possible.

Scratch and 1-handicappers start with -2020 & 21 start with -10
2 & 3 handicappers start with -1922 & 23 start with -9
4 & 5 start with -1824 & 25 start with -8
6 & 7 start with -1726 & 27 start with -7
8 & 9 start with -1628 & 29 start with -6
10 & 11 start with -1530 & 31 start with -5
12 & 13 start with -1432 & 33 start with -4
14 & 15 start with -1334 & 35 start with -3
16 & 17 start with -1236+ start with -2 points
18 & 19 start with -11

During the round, positive points are added on the following basis using gross hole scores: 

  • Double Bogey or worse = 0 points
  • Bogey = 1 point
  • Par = 2 points
  • Birdie = 4 points
  • Eagle = 8 points

Red, White & Blue Tournament Results

2022 MGA Red, White & Blue

The 2022 edition of the MGA Red, White & Blue tournament is officially in the books. We’d like to thank all the NGC staff who helped to make the weekend a great success. Thank you to all the players who came out to both compete and take part in the camaraderie that makes the MGA the great group that it is.

To turbocharge the weekend, on Saturday, Mike Helmer made a hole in one on #15 from 178 yards with a 6-iron. Cheers to you Mike!

After surviving white & blue Saturday and an all red tee Sunday shootout, when all was said and done, Jack Sullivan and Patrick Escalambre stood alone as our 2022 RWB Champions. In a dominant performance, with accurate drives and precision iron play, Jack Sullivan took the win in the Net Division at -25. In the Gross Division, after an exciting final few holes, Patrick Escalambre took the well deserved major victory at a very impressive score of -1 overall for the tournament. Well played!
