Mothball Putting Tournament

Dorothy Fluke, Cathi Hatch, Karen Lytle, Patty Barrier

Today, good friends Patty Barrier, Karen Lytle, Dorothy Fluke and I got together to celebrate Karen's birthday.  We met on the Overlake Golf Course putting green and played our first game of the "Mothball Putting Tournament".  The tournament was so named due to Dorothy's insistence that she would have to get her putter out of mothballs in order to participate.

Birthday Girl Karen putts for Pink Team.

We divided the group into two teams at Patty's suggestion.  Dorothy and I were on the yellow team and Patty and Birthday Girl, Karen were on the pink team.  Each team member took turns putting the ball to see how few putts each team would have to use for each of the nine holes.  Not intending to brag (too much!), Dorothy and I were the team winners with 3 strokes under the pink team.   And then at the end of team play, we had an individual one hole only competition which we all agreed that Birthday Girl Karen won hands down.

Tired and hot from our zealous putting efforts, we retired to the Clubhouse for a light lunch, though we all coveted Karen's choice since her choice was served with potato chips.  Yum!
