Jim Petronchak wins by 2 shots over Mike Jeffries on a fantastic winter day - 70s with some gusty winds. Fitz has a net 5 on par 3s and 6 net eagles plus a few others on his way to a net 78. Dennis was sailing along until 17 but still made the second most money.
February 23, 2017 (Seaview)
Mike Jeffries and Jim Petronchak tied with net 75s on a top ten weather day especially for February. The greens were lightning fast and the course played quite a bit harder than the 118 slope. Jim Rinaldi had 2 birdies on the front nine on his way to a net 43.

Some pretty bad golf out there today, especially Cavallo.

1) Dave Perry shoots 32 on the back to tie Rapp with 67s
2) 30 degrees at the start, 66 degrees on 18
3) "Paramus Pete" comes in 5th (Bar story)
4) Happy 61th Birthday to Dave
5) Where's Babo ?
February 16, 2016 (Sea Oaks)
On a day with wind gusts of 40 MPH Mike Jeffries cruises to a 5 shot win over Jim Rinaldi. The winds affected every shot including some putts. Great course that will be fun to play in warmer weather.
February 14, 2017 (Copperhead, FL)
Mike Rolph wins by 4 shots capturing both 9's. Golf course offers benevolent par 3's (course handicaps #6, #10, #11 and #13) providing FTDGA three Net 1's (and net eagles). Mike misses a long eagle putt, falling short by 2 feet, misses the easy follow up putt, then misses the comebacker...eagle putt becomes a bogey! GolfNow offering us decent courses at reasonable prices during busy FLA winter season. One of their reps met us at the course, gave us each a towel, hat, sleeve of balls and a BEER! Nice treatment!
February 13, 2017 (Palmetto Pines, FL)
Min Minutello wins easily on a terrific weather day in SW Florida by 8 strokes.No Pre-Valentine Day love shown on this lackluster group (Fred Thiry was our fourth) as Min shows no mercy. Many story lines in this 5+ hour round…carts getting stuck in areas where no carts should be, angry golf course homeowners yelling at XDGA members for driving carts into their yards, some broken PVC pipes later (and some cash exchanged), we soldiered on. A memorable round of golf for sure. Awesome sunset on the 18th green :). We courteously saluted the colors as they lowered the flag for the day. FT DGA had a Johnny.
February 8, 2017 (Fox Hollow)
Ron Emma coasts to a 6 shot win on a perfect spring like day in February. We finished easily in under 4 hours walking.
February 6, 2017 (Cypress Woods III, FL)
Perfect SW Florida day weather wise --- 80's and lot's of sun. Min has an easy go of it with a 4 stroke victory over Cavallo. He gets his 1st greenie in six days (so he says). Cavallo has a bad Johnny.
February 4, 2017 (Spooky Brook)
Fitz nips Bruce by one shot on a cold and windy day with frozen greens. We played any hole and it made for some interesting choices on chips and puts. Matt shoots 11 gross and 7 net with 3 greens - amazing given how frozen the greens were.
February 2, 2017 (Harbor Pines)
Jim Rinaldi nips Ron Emma by 1 shot. Good layout but the greens were very bumpy - lots of 3 puts.
February 2, 2017 (Royal Palm, FL)
Larry Thiry and his giant handicap wins by 2 strokes on a somewhat ordinary course. When asked by the host/member what we thought of the track - only one person answered , "nice greens", still a beautiful day in sunny Florida.
February 1, 2017 (TwinEagles - Talon, FL)
Another great day in Naples - played the other TwinEagles course with Cora. Great layout, very fast greens. Jim Petronchak wins by 3 over the par 3 savant Mark Schuler.
