While the temperatures were wonderful the wind made the targets very challenging today. 72 shooters came out to White Gates with Glen Oak winning by 6.5 birds. St Charles came in second with Oak Park in 3rd and Medinah only 1 bird behind them. Three shooters shot perfect 50’s and another seven shooters were able to run 25 straight. Through three shoots Glen Oak has a comfortable 5 bird lead over White Gates with Medinah 10 birds back and Oak Park trailing by 12.5 targets.
Brendan Durkin and Michael McLaughlin led Glen Oak with perfect scores. The Bartel family made the leaderboard in their first shoot of the year. Pat and Adam both ran 25 straight in their second round to finish with a 48 and 47.5 respectively. Al Forst dropped a bird on each field and Mark Gadbois and Ross Weigand rounded out the Glen Oak leaderboard with net 47.5’s. It may be impossible to catch this team with 2 of the final 4 shoots on their home field.
20 shooters from White Gates came out and scored their team a second place finish. Some familiar names led the squad with Jeff Moecher and Bob Olsen continuing their great shooting with 25’s today and leading the way with 48’s. Jim Gilman had a 25 in his first round and posted a 47 along with Mike Skatsky and Lynn Snow. Our hosts did a fantastic job, as always.
