BUNKER TO BUNKER

--- Good wishes and luck to Theora Fransen, who will undergo a medical procedure in her legs this week. We wish her not only a smooth procedure but also a quick recovery so she can come and play golf with her friends every Tuesday!

Calvin Adkisson had
a great back nine!

--- Enjoyed the round with Kenneth Schuelein, Calvin Adkisson and our senior champion Harry Payne, the only golfers who showed up Thursday morning due to the high and cool winds.

--- GPN Bank's Bedlam Cup is right around the corner (Oct. 29-30). We already have several entries in our team, but as time goes by, we may need a qualifying round to select the rest. For that reason alone, if you are interested and have the weekend off, let us know as soon as you can. You can call Mark Russell at GPN Bank's office at 225-2265 or you can call Alex or Ramona at the Pro-Shop at 225-3556. Mangum-Altus, already has several entries, and Clinton and Weatherford are in the same process. It should be fun! For Weatherford (Prairie West), contact Phil Payne at 580-772-3832; for Clinton (Riverside G.C.), contact Kenneth Miller at 580-332-5958; for Woodward (Boiling Springs) contact Jon Hart at 580-256-1206; for Woodward Muni, contact Robert Wood at 580-256-9028; for Mangum area, contact Robert Garton (Bank Offices) at 580-225-782-5555 or Jymmy Joe (golf course) at 580-782-3676; and for Sayre, contact Brad Spitzer at 580-928-5540 (contact after Monday, Oct. 10).

Harry Payne: you become
Senior Champion by
knowing trouble shots!

Kenny Schuelein..
knows a thing or two
about golf!

--- Good luck to Joby Gray this coming weekend at Jimmy Austin's University of Oklahoma G.C., where he will be playing yet another Oklahoma Junior Golf Assoc. golf tournament. Joby is high in the standings and comes from a "rough" week where he could "only" score a 76-75. We know, 90% of us would like those scores, but to someone with an average score of just under 72 in those tournaments, and well under 70 at home, those scores are higher than normal. Nothing to be embarrassed about, but everything to make you try harder. Word is that he finally found a putter he likes.

Haley only watches good
golf: either brother Dustin,
or Joby here. 

--- Haley Gunkel, our trusty assistant this last summer, has taken a job at Legacy Bank but will still help at the pro-shop some days as needed. If you bank there, be sure to report on me that she has not lost her smiling face... dealing with golfers and bank customers is not much different, what is different is not being able to be outside from time to time enjoying the open. We already miss her bubbly personality and youthful optimism. Good luck Haley!
