FREDONIA -- At their July 17 outing, the Friday Night Couples League at the Vineyards Golf Course departed from its usual four-person scramble as 17 couples took on the fun and challenging game of Booster Golf.
Booster Golf is an on-course card game promoted on its website to make golf "fun again" because "golf takes itself too seriously." The game can be played in several formats, and the Couples League version gave each couple a blind-draw packet of nine sealed envelopes, each containing a playing card. At every hole, the couples opened one envelope to reveal a challenge for that hole. With 100 interactive cards available, some couples may have faced similar tasks, but no two packets were exactly alike. Examples of some of the challenges included were putting one-handed, kicking the ball on the second shot, adding or subtracting yardage and strokes, and using the worst drive. Booster Golf made the evening interesting, maddening and entertaining, depending, as in any card game, on the luck of the draw.
At the end of the game, Barry and Cathe Kilpatrick, Rick and Sarah Kirchenwitz, and Pete and Amanda Krakowiak tied for the evening's lowest score with a 31. Rich and Pam Hofer finished with a 33, while Joe and Antonett Charletta tied Larry and Judy Ebersole with a 34.
Rick Kirchenwitz won closest to the pin on No. 5.
