Muscle Shoals, AL- The Fighting Joe course at The Shoals Golf Club is a beautiful course, but is very much a challenge! This is a course worth playing if you have the chance. It was a perfect day for golf as we started tee times at 8 o'clock. A slight little breeze made for tougher scoring conditions.
Champ flight saw Allen Thomas take first place over points leader Ed McDugle by one stroke. Allen carded a 74 to Ed's 75. Guest Keith Nuckolls took home third place.
Mark Heath won his second tournament in a row with an 82. Congrats Mark! Second place with an 84 was Stan Platt, with Todd Bradford taking home 3rd with an 86.
