The 2009 Sig Ep Golf Outing at Royal American Links was concluded on August 1, 2009. We had a good turnout of 24 Alumni and 7 Undergraduates who are pictured above. The Golf Scramble was highly contested with 8 teams vying for honors. First Place with a score of seven under goes to the Bob Barnett '71 Team whose members include Mike Roberts '71, Ken Misener '71 and Jim Crossley '70. The old guys still have it. However, an official protest has been filed since Barnett and Crossley were on the winning team in 2008 as well. Sig Ep Sam has been enlisted to conduct a thorough investigation into any score card adjustments or excessive use of mulligans to insure a competitive environment for all future golf outing. Second place at six under went to the Jock Taylor '10 and his three Man Team of Dave Dressler '11 and Howard Bender '55. Third Place resulted in a three way tie at five under but the winner was determine by the lowest putts and the Jim Allshouse '76 Team won with his Brothers Mark Hallam '79, Steve Zimmer '77 and Dave Hyre '76.
We also awarded three individual skill awards for Longest Drive on #6, closest to the Pin on #12 and Longest Putt made on #18. John Hussong '94 won both the long drive and closest to the Pin (how did he do that?) Howard Bender '55 was awarded the longest putt after another controversy of not having available a pencil to write his name on the flag but with sworn affidavits from his team mates, he won.
Golf was followed with dinner in the club house with several additional Brothers joining the festivities enjoying food, beverage and conversation.
Thanks to all who participated and whether you won or not, the Sigma Phi Epsilon Ohio Gamma Foundation did win because the proceeds from this event netted an additional $600.
