La Junta Senior Golf Results for 4/23/24


Description: Dennis Golding, Sheila McClain, Shelly Grantham watch Gary Armitage chip onto the green.

Today was opening day for the 2024 La Junta Senior Golf League at the La Junta Golf Course. It was blustery, but the sun was shining, and the golf balls flew! Forty participants signed up, which made up eight teams of five golfers. Tom Aldea was introduced as a new member.

We played nine holes of scramble golf. There was a challenge chip on hole #5, and challenge putt on hole #3 and two other bonus putts on holes #2 and 7 that, if made, would lower the team score. Unfortunately, none of the challenges were successful.
