The second Leisure World Men’s Golf Club tournament of the month was held on Dec. 27 at the Turtle Lake Golf Course.

A total of 46 golfers teed off and played 18 holes on a very damp morning. With poor conditions only 19 of the 46 rounds were net at or under par, with just seven circle hole winners, but there were 43 birdies.

The low gross competition was won by Bob Barnum at 4 under 50, followed by Bill Lyons, and Don Newhall. Best net score was Scott Tuchfarber at 6 under 48, then Barnum and Dale Williamson, at net 5 under 49. Lowest gross score was Barnum at 4 under 50. Closest to the pin on the second hole was Newhall at 1 foot 2 inches, and Jae. H. Lee at 3 feet 6 inches on the 11th hole.

All scores below are net (gross score minus handicap).

A flight winners (handicaps of 0-5): Barnum, 5 under 49, first place; Newhall, 4 under 50, second; Mike Mayfield, 3 under 51, third; Bob Turner, 1 under 53, fourth; tie between John Kolthoff, Thomas Kim and Bill Lyons, even par 54, fifth.
