Whackdown Results.

Yes, it was a nearly perfect coastal summer day; warm but not hot, a cool not cold breeze, partly cloudy and sunny, an insightful pre-func with curated music on the outdoor speakers. The course was green, groomed and challenging. Cowabungas present included, Leftie, Mr. Balls, Sticky Wicket, Surferino and Mr. Wicket. Two rounds were played.

Sticky Wicket won the first round, hitting two memorable, long distance shots, including a kill shot on Mr. Wicket,  eligible for shots-of-the-day, SOD. He also positioned himself well taking advantage of others' mistakes. Although suffering from a foot problem, Sticky was still able to rise to the occasion after each great shot and bust a few steps of the Sticky shuffle as Mr. Balls looked on in amazement. One time the shuffle was prompted by Sticky's backing into the mature yucca plant while trying to lineup a shot on the turnaround wicket(s). News flash: Sticky stuck sighting shot sipping suds.

Surferino won the second round, executing two great shots en route: one a long downhill shot  adjacent to the deck curving through the center wicket stopping within a few feet of another ball, the second was his long kill shot on poisoned Sticky resulting in a second shot killing Leftie, the play-of-the-day, POD.

Sticky Wicket and Surferino shared the SOD honors. They whacked down the competition all of whom will have a chance to retaliate tomorrow during Whackdown 2.0, the show no mercy affair.
