Helped
by advancements in golf technology, Mark “Q-Ball’ Kimmet
overcame a severe case of the shanks to win the 2012 Southern
Pines Invitational on Sunday. Firing a final round plus three,
Q-Ball held off a surging Toby “Hoss Cartwright” Hyke to win the
tournament by two points at plus nine. In so doing, Kimmet

Gentlemen, start your putters! Three weeks separate
us from the 2012 Golf Trip! We are looking forward to another
banner year as we return to the Ross Lodge with sixteen players.
We've had a little turn over in the ranks, with Greg Goddard and
Michael Moser unable to participate due to injuries.
Moser's spot as Greg Logue's partner will be assumed by newcomer and former lumberjack
Andy Neely.
Also a first time player,
Rob Shelor will step in as Toby Hyke's
partner. Our loss is the Lord's gain, as Monty
Walton has opted for worthier pursuits in Divinity School.
Walton's place will be taken by
Tracy Thompson, who
returns following a three-year hiatus.
For a lighter view of
the subject, check below for John Denver's ode to bad golf via "18
Holes," with apologies to Tennessee Ernie Ford. Good luck and
here's to hitting them long and straight!
