The Dye Course at Stonebridge Ranch Only Gets Tougher

Scott R Chilcutt, McKinney, TX (March 26, 2018)  Dallas Tour members, hit the special Monday, Dye Classic @ Stonebridge for the third year running and familiarity hasn't helped bring the scores down.

Pete Dye designed the Dye Course at Stonebridge Ranch Country Club, taking advantage of the topography, that design has been preserved by the course to create a true test of golf. Tightly mown fairways and tough green complexes, just added to the railroad tie banked water hazards and knee-high grasses bordering fairways and greens set things up for a tough day.

Arguably, one of the toughest courses on our yearly schedule, the green changes over the fall and the winds on Monday, certainly didn't help anyone feel good about their games. But then again, Pete Dye was never in the business to design easy tracks.

The winner of the Feherty's Troops First Foundation 50/50 raffle, took home $550, bringing the Texas Tour events total to $6,220 contributed to the Foundation in 2018.


RESULTS:

Championship Flight:  Coming off a runner-up finish at the Kiawah Island Championship, the previous weekend, Jack Carlile, of Lewisville, TX, seems to like the Dye Layouts, shooting the low round of the day on the famed, Ocean Course.  One back making the turn on Monday,  Carlile, snuck in an eagle and the par 5 - 16th to pick the win,  his second in three attempts and third on tour.  Flower Mound, TX, member David Wright, with a birdie at the par 3 - 8th, finished four strokes back, four strokes clear of the pair of Al Swanson of Edmond, OK and McKinney, TX, player Tim Willams rounding out the top three finishers.

Palmer Flight:  Double bogies on the par 4 - 18th, forced Kirk Boerner of Fort Worth, TX, and Murphy, TX, resident, Dallas Webster to extra holes.  Webster, in his second playoff in as many events, went back to the course without time constraints from a Texas Tech Basketball game, but ended with the same result, with Boerner, picking up the Championship.  For Boerner, it was his fourth win of the season, including, the Major Championship at the Golf Club of Houston, site of this week, Houston Open on the PGA Tour.   Back one stroke of the pair, two players finished knotted up in the runner-up finish, with Mark Anderson of Plano, TX, and Lewisville, TX, member Greg Digby, sharing second.

Senior Palmer Flight:  Starting the day on the par 4 - 10th, Tim Bush of Granbury, TX, made the turn with a one-stroke lead.  That lead quickly, vanished as Bush, carded an eight on the par 4 - 1st, but backed it up with a birdie on the next hole, added another four holes later and was one his way to his first win of the season and second on tour.  Two strokes back, traveling Albuquerque, NM, resident Don Roundtree, grabbed the runner-up finish, with another traveler, Michael Foster, of Catoosa, OK, with a birdie on the par 4 - 2nd, rounding out the top three.

Hogan Flight:  Sharing the lead, making the turn, first-time player Bryce Bender of Grapevine, TX, did just enough coming to the clubhouse to force extra holes.  Playing in his second event of the weekend, newly relocated Las Colinas, TX, player Rick Houchins, would faceoff Bender in the sudden death, to prevail for his fifteenth win on tour and first since the 2016 season.  Daegen Blackwood, of Dallas, TX, back on tour for the first time since the 2016 season, finished all along in third place, two strokes back.

Senior Hogan Flight:  Starting the round on the par 5 - 10th, Irving, TX, Myles Gallemore, held the lead making the turn and then started pouring it on with a birdie at the par 4 - 1st.  Gallemore, off the schedule since 2015, with only two events that year, grabbed the win, in his third time out this season, for his fifth win on tour.  Glynn Aldredge, of Fairview, TX, a winner his last time out, carded he runner-up spot, with Haslet, TX, player Phillip Holt, using a birdie on the par 3 - 5th to round out the top three.

Sarazen Flight:   Neil McGregor of nearby McKinney, TX, made birdie right out of the gate on the par 4 - 1st, added another on the par 5 - 7th and made the turn with plenty of strokes to burn.  McGregor skated to the win, his first on tour, four strokes clear of a first-year Dallas, TX, player, Preston Moxcey, with his best finish on tour.  Fort Worth, TX, long time member, Preston Miller in his first time out since October, rounded out the top three, two strokes out of second.

Senior Sarazen Flight:  Bullard, TX, player Bill Clark, played his way right back to the Senior Hogan Flight on Monday.  Clark a Senior Sarazen, since 2015, has brought his game back to those days, with two wins on tour this year, with fifteen on tour.   Six strokes back, John McClemore, of Dallas, TX, with a birdie on the par 5 - 16th, snarred the runner-up finish, with Rockwall, TX, member David Day rounding out the top three.

Jones Flight:  Starting his day on the par 4- 10th, Ray Tycki of nearby McKinney, TX, didn't have a pretty scorecard after nine, but was right in the mix tied for the lead.  Tyzki ran into trouble on the par 4 - 1st, as many did on the day, but carded seven par's in a row to pick up his fourth win on tour and third in as many attempts.  One stroke back of first, John Grimley of Garland, TX, birdied his last hole of the day, the par 4 - 18th to solidify his runner-up finish, with Haslet, TX, member Doyle Fleming, with a birdie on the par 5 - 16th taking home the showplace finish.

Snead Flight:  Texas Tours, trophy maker, Ron Hardy of Lewisville, TX, two strokes back at the turn, finished the day with his second win of the season and fourteenth on tour.   Two strokes back, Hill Country Tour traveler, Mark Colwell of Selma, TX, with a birdie on the par 3 - 5th and closest to the hole, took home the runner-up finish, with Zane Latham, of Valley View, TX, a big giant skin winner, with a birdie on the par 4 - 11th rounding out the top three.

Searching For a Pot of Gold - St Paddy's Day Championship

Scott R Chilcutt, Thackerville, OK (March 17, 2018)  WinStar Golf Club, part of the WinStar World Casino and Resort complex, along the Red River, has been a mainstay, over the past few years on the National Schedule as a Major Championship venue.  Due to course scheduling issues, and close vicinity to the DFW MetroPlex, the course hosted the St Paddy's Day Championship, part of the Texas Tour schedule on the DFW Tour.

Beautiful, warm temperatures, greeted many players for Friday practice rounds, but switched, with the northerly winds overnight, to start the Saturday, with cool cloudy breezes.  Course maintenance schedules got us closer to fairway scalping than we would have preferred, that left hard and fast short grasses, but smooth greens helped keep the scores down.

The winner of the Feherty's Troops First Foundation 50/50 raffle, took home $560, bringing the Texas Tour events total to $4,770 contributed to the Foundation in 2018.

RESULTS:

Championship Flight:  Down three strokes making the turn, Willie Roach of Bedford, TX, carded three birdies coming to the clubhouse, to go with one on the front to force a playoff with Granbury, TX, member Keith McKelvy.  Back to the par 5 - 1st for the sudden death, McKelvy, bettered his first time at the hole by two strokes to force even more holes, where Roach would ultimately pick up his first win, in his first attempt on tour, at the par 4 - 3rd.  One stroke back of the pair, Michael Barr of Lewisville, TX, and Rockwall, TX, first-time player Tim Brooks, shared the third place finish.

Palmer Flight:  Chase Day, of Little Elm, TX, and Murphy, TX, player Dallas Webster, finished knotted up in the top spot after regulation to force extra holes.  And more holes, the pair got, where finally Day would pick up the win on the fifth playoff hole for his first Championship on Tour.  John Sells of Crowley, TX, with a birdie on the par 4 -3rd, finish two strokes back of the pair for the third-place honors.

Senior Palmer Flight: Second-year tour player, Keith Johnson of Bedford, TX, took a one-stroke lead making the turn and never looked back after a birdie on the par 4 - 10th.  Johnson, finished his first win on tour, two strokes clear of Trophy Club, TX, member Jalil Daneshfar.  Daneshfar, with a birdie, right out of the gate, on the par 5 - 1st, finished one stroke clear of Tim Bush of Granbury, TX.

Hogan Flight:  Off the tour since 2016, Rowlett, TX, player Michael Schmidt, with a self-reported 40+ putts on the round, picked up his first Championship on tour.  Schmidt, one stroke back making the turn, birdied the par 5 - 15th to round grab the win, one stroke clear of John Hickman of Richardson, TX.  Hickman, with three birdies on his round, including his first hole of the day, cleared a trio of third-place finishers, by two strokes.  Bill Nay of Plano, TX, along with Fort Worth, TX, member Jeff Workman, both carding a birdie on the round, shared the third place honors with Jack Minze, of Abilene, TX.

Senior Hogan Flight:  Garland, TX, member Stephen Lamb, starting the day on the par 4 - 10th, with par, cleared the front nine, two strokes ahead of the field.  First-time tour player Chris Hill of Coppell, TX, with the help of a birdie on the par 4 - 3rd, tied up the top spot finishing the round for extra playoff holes.  Back to the par 4 - 10th for the sudden death the pair would match each other until the third hole of the playoff the, par 4 - 12th where Hill would take the Championship.  Dave Hanson, of Granbury, TX, with four birdies on his round, finished just one stroke out of the playoff after a double on the par 5 - 9th.

DFW Tour Continues at Frisco Lakes

Scott R Chilcutt,  Frisco, TX (March 10, 2018)  Frisco Lakes Golf Club, situated within the Del Webb Frisco Lakes housing development has been a spring mainstay on the Golf Channel DFW AM Tour.

A beautiful morning greeted players, with the best weather of 2018 so far.  Good rolling greens, decent, through the green, conditions and awful bunker complexes, made it a mixed bag.   While, in the past, it seemed they only had problems with the high banked traps around the #9 green, this year was different.  Taking some of the bunkers completely out of play only helped those that didn't have to traverse the others.  Keeping in mind, the USGA slope and rating takes into consideration those hazards, we minimally adjusted with a local rule to get a favorable lie, hoping to alleviate potential flight promotions because of the easier course.   

The good news is the course is working on the bunkers, the bad news, they didn't work on them last year.  Will be closely reviewing the complex for future events because of those conditions.

The winner of the Feherty's Troops First Foundation 50/50 raffle, took home $580, bringing the Texas Tour events total to $3,670 contributed to the Foundation in 2018.

RESULTS:

Championship Flight:  Playing in his third points season on tour, Jack Carlile, of Lewisville, TX, has clearly been upping his game over the winter, with only two events outside the top two, including a couple of Major Championships.    Carlile, a Senior Championship flight player, went -3 going out on four birdies to finish -2 for his second win on tour.  Two strokes back, perennial tour winner, Nick Quast of Trophy Club, TX, finished in the runner-up spot with two birdies on the day, four strokes clear of a pair tied up just behind him.  The first-time player from Dallas, TX, Marie Burns and Fort Worth, TX, member Jeremy Frenzel, both with two birdies on the day, shared the third place honors.

Palmer Flight:  Ranger, TX, player Scott Harper, looked to have things in hand, making the turn with two birdies over three holes, hard-charging Gregory Haddon of Rowlett, TX had other thoughts.  Haddon with two birdies of his own on the back nine forced extra holes to settle the score.  Back to the par 4 - 10th, Harper would prevail in sudden death for his fifteenth win on tour and second of the points season.  Haddon, not out of the top five this season, picked up his third runner-up of the season, with Jeff Bankard, newly relocated to Dallas, TX, taking home third place on three birdies.

Senior Palmer Flight:  Competing in his second year on tour, Wylie, TX, player Jack Whitling, picked up his first win.  Whitling, with four birdies on his round, has been close a few times but commanded the win, four strokes clear of two Oklahoma Tour travelers.  Catoosa, OK, player Michael Foster a birdie on the par 5 - 18th and Richard Cordis, of Edmond, OK, with two birdies on his round, shared the runner-up finish. 

Hogan Flight:  Out of the country for a couple of years working abroad, Cory Welch of Fort Worth, TX, got back to his winning ways.  Welch, with two birdies on his round, recorded his ninth win on tour and first since the 2015 points season, where he was a three-time winner on the year.  One stroke back, Jeff Workman of Fort Worth, TX, a winner his last time out, took the runner-up spot, with Killeen, TX, player Randy Dorsey, with a birdie on the par 4 - 17th rounding out the top three.

Senior Hogan Flight:   Fairview, TX, member Glynn Aldredge, promoted the Hogan Flight, after the 2017 Senior National Championship, picked up his first win in the new flight, in only two attempts for his fourth win on his career.  Aldredge, with two birdies on the round, finished one stroke clear of Rick Swanson of Carrollton, TX, with two birdies of the day, and Jones, OK, traveler, Stan Wilson, with two of his own, knotted in the runner-up spot.

Sarazen Flight:  With only a few Open Sarazens registered for the event, the majority of Senior Sarazen Flight players, got shuffled to the regular Sarazen Flight, and clearly didn't fold to the pressure of competing with the younger group, with six of the seven top five and ties, to the Seniors.  All starting on the par 4 - 10th, Bill Clark of Bullard, TX,  Bedford, TX, member Darren Bufton and Bob Moreau, of Rockwall, TX, matched each other nine-hole scores to take the three back to a sudden death playoff.  Back to the course, Clark would prevail, with a bogie, to grab his fourteenth win on tour and first of the season relegating the other two to sharing the runner-up finish.

Jones Flight:  Working his way back to the Jones Flight, Doyle Fleming of Haslet, TX, recorded his first win since April 2017.  Two strokes back, Frisco, TX, local, Srinivas Pokunur, with two birdies on the round, picked up the runner-up finish, with Garland, TX, second-year player John Grimley, rounding out the top three.

Snead Flight:  Longtime, Lewisville, TX, player Ron Hardy, picked up his thirteenth win on tour and first of the points season.  Hardy, cleared second place finisher, Keith Huddleston, of Fort Worth, TX, by two strokes.  Huddleston, with a birdie on the par 3- 8th, and closest to the hole on the par 5 - 5th, finished one stroke ahead of first-year player Orval Miller, of Timpson, TX, taking home the showplace finish.
