Notables - Honourable mention to Susan,(Mrs. BigGuy) who enjoyed a leisurely breakfast at the clubhouse then ventured into the wilds of Brockville for a day of unescorted shopping, but returned for post game libations none the worse for ware.
- Grumpy is fined $2 before the round for whining on the event sign in page as he petulantly wimpered that he had no one to challenge.
- Potter realized after the round that he could have played more forward t-blocks and his opponents thank him.
- Gazzif changed his name to Gazzif and erased his entire personal history.
- Honourable mention to Panda who returned to the Slammer Tour after a 3 year hiatus.
- A Slammer welcome to Aqua, a rookie in her first event who won her first match.
- Five Slammers paid their $10 entry into the new hole in one pool.
- Gazzif won a "D" hat and then won a bottle of tequila for having the nicest hat.
- Pommie tossed Gazzif's hat off of the balcony but the hat came back !
- Thanks to Pommie for doling out the entire Tanco Doggie pot of $60 to the only winner, Clang.
- Thanks to Grumpy for taking 18x as long as Pommie to present his thorough and entertaining Evolution Physio skins report which found Cuba taking 2 with singles won by turtle and Gazzif, worth $13 each.
- The special at Il Primo on Sunday night was outstanding, as it is every night.
- Potter, a Brockville member, proclaims he is now ready for the Brockville/Slammer Tour Challenge akin to Messier guaranteeing a Rangers victory back in the day.
- Pommie gets muddy as he plays a shot out of the swamp, forgetting to take off his pants during his pre-swamp routine.
Quotables
- I didn't drive all the way from Ottawa to lay up.
- There's my sweetheart.
- I usually play this par 3 as a 2 shotter but now its a 3 shotter.
- Pommie pronounces the word sandtrap, "Bugga".
- All is fair in love and Slammers.
- I don't play this course a lot, I play a lot of the course.

Sun May 27, 2012
Summary
This was the inaugural Slammer Tour event at Brockville Country Club for 2012. There was no wind, pure sunshine, nary a mosquito or blackfly, and the course was in the best condition ever. All 12 Slammers who experienced this golf nirvana celebrated tastefully afterward on the upper deck of the clubhouse. That's our story for now.
Stars |
|
Clang |
|
Clang stepped up to the first tee and by the end of his round had dispatched his 3 match opponents and claimed 2 dogs, which were the only ones, taking home the entire par 3 pot. Nice afternoon and thus first star. With it comes a large bucket of balls at Karters Korners driving range. |
|
Stevie Ray |
|
StevieRay was also 3-0 in his matches and leapt 36 spots in the rankings to 24th position. He also cleansed post game misusage of the word shank, which word should never be taken irreverently. |
|
The Enigma |
|
The Enigma raced broken toe and all through the parking lot shortly before his match, rented a cart, and went to work claiming a 1-1-1 record on the day. He was neck in neck for stardom which was ultimately rewarded as he defended his ranking. |
