Rick & Mike: I agree with your comments and don’t know why someone assumes cheating without knowing any facts. That’s very pessimistic and I prefer to believe the best in people and the ability of the playing partners to protect the Field.

Mike: I’ve noticed that the final winner usually shoots around 67 or 68 so that lines up with your comments. I can’t speak about the ability of low handicappers not being able to win, but I believe the WA has had some low handicappers as winners in the past. I also noticed that a 10 handicapper shot a 74 in the finals and was DQ’d, which is embarrassing. I hope the 2nd place winners in that flight got moved up to first place.
