A State Championship in anything is outstanding. Now, I'll show my ignorance, for those of us not familiar with State golf, What is the format - how many golfers? Do they all play every round? How many rounds? Since they set a State 2A record with a 600, I'm curious. FYI, I use to "play" but the greatest thing I got out golf, I improved my addition adding up double bogies lol.

Basically they had four kids that shot a 75 two days straight. That's pretty solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to all of you for the responses. I not only know how they do it, but also how good Grapeland is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in my heyday, I wouldn't have wanted to play in a golf game involving money with those guys :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in my heyday, I wouldn't have wanted to play in a golf game involving money with those guys :) Here is some more perspective. Their two day team score of 600 would have them 8 strokes out of 3rd in 6A, 2nd overall in 5A, 1st overall in 4A & 3A by 21 strokes in each, and 1st in 1A by 38 strokes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
