Two months into the official 2025 season, The Age Shooters of the BMC is proud to announce the induction of several members, including three new members and two repeat members.
The new members are:
- John Miller, who, on June 24, at age 76, shot his age on the number from Braemar’s D tees, playing in a 4 Man Over-70 match against Fox Hollow;
- Dan Berend, who, on May 23, at age 78, shot his age on the number, playing at Bunker Hills in a Metro Seniors match against Bunker; and
- Joe O’Neill, who, on July 23, 2024, at age 67, shot a 66 at Dwan (par 68), in a Senior 8 Man match against Dwan. Apologies to Joe for the late reporting of this outstanding round of two under!
The returning members are:
- Bill Angel, who shot his three times this year, including a 74 (at age 74, just before his birthday in June), on May 27, from Braemar’s D tees; a 72 (at age 74) on June 10, at Francis Gross’s combination tees; and a 72 (at age 75, just after his birthday) on June 24 from Braemar’s D tees. All three rounds came in 4 Man competitions and contributed to Braemar victories against Emerald Greens, Gross and Fox Hollow.
- Jim Peterson, who, at 83, shot an 80 on April 23 from Braemar’s N tees. Jim hit the fairways all day and couldn’t miss a putt from inside 10 feet. He also shot his age in 2023, when, at age 81, Jim fired an 80 from Braemar’s N tees.
Congrats to these 2025 additions to the Age Shooters of the BMC!
