Dewey Jones, “El Hombre Sin Miedo”, or the man without fear, won four skins and most of the cash Wednesday when the Ranch Irregulars left the beach for, guess what, a golf outing. Three teams of three golfers competed in a five dollar modified Nassau combined with a skins game. Now known as “Half-a-Stroke Jones”, Dewey pocketed $50 for his four dingers. The team of Jentry Weisinger, Sonny Makin and Mike VanZandt won the first nine with a seven over par 79. I lost the scorecards and don’t remember which team won the second nine, but it was close.
Shannon O’Brien won a pair of skins. Mike Comeaux and Mike VanZandt won three skins each and Sonny Makin birdied the dogleg right Par 5-3d hole for the days other skin. Low score for the day was Mike VanZandt’s two birdie, no double bogey 80. Comeaux had a pair of birds for 81 and O’Brien overcame three double bogeys with two birdies and shot 82. Also competing were Dabney Harrison, Roy Strimple and Mike Mitchell.
