Golfers hitting the links earlier this
EXETER - It's almost time for
golfers in the area to dust off their
clubs and get ready to hit the links
as half of the area courses have
opened for the season and the oth-
ers will be open in the near future.
Bayview Golf Club, near St..Jo-
seph, was the first in the area to
open as the began letting golfers
hack away on Good Friday.
There have been a couple of im-
provement that players will notice
right away according Archie Masse,
of Ba .
He said .they have added two
pon s that come into play on par 5
hole ber 4 and par 3 hole num-
ber 7 and they have also added more
sand traps to make a total of 14 on
the course.
Masse said the men's league will
begin the third Tuesday in April,
the women's league will start the
first Thursday in May and the $en-
iors League will begin the first.
Monday in May at 9 a.m.
Green fees for the season have
not been finalized, but Masse pre-
dicts they will be going up slight-
' ly. Players right now can play 18
holes for $11 and $13 on week-
ends, because the regular tees are
not ready for use. During the week,
nine holes will cost $8 and $9 on
weekends until the new rates take
effect. Masse said the nine -hole
costs might not be going up at all.
Bayview Golf Club is located on
Highway 21 just south of St. Jo-
seph.
Ironwood Golf Course east of
Exeter opened for the season Sun-
day, one week ahead of schedule,
because of the nice weather.
Ironwood's driving range was
open on the weekend but the nice
weather allowed then to put the
pins in early Sunday.
There is not much new at the
course this year but the expansion
of the second nine holes is continu-
ing as planned and is expected to be
finished for the 1991 season.
The Men's League is expected to
begin April 25 , and the Women's
League May 8, but if the weather
co-operates those dates could also
be moved up.
Ironwood has an April special,
nine holes for $9 and a bucket of
balls for the range will cost only
$1 this month. Also this month a
special passport can be purchased
for $100 and it allows you to play
12 rounds of nine holes.
The pro at Oakwood Inn, near
Grand Bend, Gil Parkinson said he
expects to have half of that course
open by Friday if the weather per-
mits. The other nine holes wi�l�
open later. /
The biggest improvement at Oak-
wood this year will be controlled
watered fairways, which Parkinson
felt the course needed after two very
hot dry summers. Many new trees
have also been planted on the holes
across Highway 21. Some greens
have also been slightly increased in
size.
The Men's League at Oakwood
will start the first Wednesday in
May according to Parkinson.
Green fees will also rise slightly
at Oakwood this year as well. $16
will allow you to play as many
holes as you want during the week
and it will increase slightly on the
weekend.
Bob Mason, of Burlington, is the
new owner at Exeter Golf Course
and expects to open for the year
sometime next week if the weather
permits.
Mason recently bought the course
from the previous owners and plans
nothing different for this year. It
will cost $10 for 18 holes during
the week and $12 on uu'eekends at
Page 21
season
the Exeter Golf Course and they
also have a $6 twilight fee.
He is hopeful fora good season
in Exeter and hopes the weather
will be kind to him and all the golf-
ers. ,
Mohawks win league
Continued from page 17
Scoring for the Mohawks the rest
of the way were; John Kernick from
Wayne Urbshott and Baynham,
Wilker from Barton and McClena-
ghan, Randerson from McClena-
ghan and Wilker and Joe Scherer
from Barton.
Tim Glencross paced the Chiefs'•
attack with a pair of goals.
According to a story in the Cree-
more Star, the difference in the ser-
ies was the hot goaltending of Mo-
hawks' Rick Pikul.
"The real story in this series was
the outstanding goaltending the Mo-
hawks are getting from Rick Pikul.
The veteran netminder is literally
'standing on his head' to stop the
Chiefs, who have outplayed the
Mohawks in most of the series but
can't score with any consistency on
Pikul. He had the Creemore shoot-
ers mesmerized," said Creemore Star
sports columnist John Westbrooke.
EXETER 6 DRESDEN 3
In Dresden Sunday, the teams
were deadlocked at 2-2 after one per-
iod of play, but the Mohawks
scored twice in the second and third
periods, while Mohawk goalie Bill
Dark played steady allowing only
one goal during that same time and
the Mohawks escaped with the win.
Dark, who 'was playing in place
of Pikul who was still smarting af-
ter getting belted in Creemore,
stopped 27 of 30 shots that was
sent his direction.
Captain Mark Soehner, Dale Gib-
bon, Wayne Urbshott and Dale.
Timmermans all sat out for the Mo-
hawks.
Scoring for the Mohawks were;
Bill Glover from Gord Brooks and
Ted Kewley, McClenaghan from
Glover and Kernick, Brooks from
Glover and Kewley, Wilker from
Randerson and Ron Goodhand, Ran-
derson from Barton and Elliot and
Wilke; from Barton. The last two
goals were power -play markers.
Brent Daugherty, Russ McFadden
and Jay Brodie all tallied for the
LumberKings.
