Hambone! (Hdcp: 7.2, Cup: 13.4)

Undrafted Jeff

The Bobocracy

Grain Alcohol appears to be a handicap doubler...

Biggest Pro:
Consistent iron play.

Biggest Con:
You think a name like Hammer would get you longer drives.
His first time at the top of the handicap board. Correction: WOFM Golf handicap board.

Biggest Pro:
He's dragging a new rookie this year, his son-in-law. Hambone! can spend this year blaming the guy sleeping with his daughter for everything.

The donut love continues for Hambone!. Lifetime Ironhead Cup record: 0-8.
Chippewa Smalls (Hdcp: 8.4)

The Bobocracy

Biggest Pro:
Indirectly gives off the country club vibe..That has to be good, right?

Biggest Con:
Hasn't proved it yet on the big dog courses with WOFM distractions.
He abandoned a lesser group to join The Weekend of Man. Bold, but unsuprising.

Biggest Pro:
He's eager and he's a rookie which hopefully means he aims to please.

Any hope others should have in him has long been sucked out by The Big Red Machine.

Undrafted Jeff

The Bobocracy

Been pounding local course...Looking for ProV1s.

Easily distracted by strategic interruptions.
And then were gonna find our best friend Doug, and then were gonna give him a best friend hug. Doug Doug Oh Doug Doug Dougie Doug Doug!

Biggest Pro:
Put together a few nice rounds last year, helped by putting together a few nice lies in the rough last year.

Biggest Con:
On-course stories from playing companions involving Monterrey, Mexico and a "handsy" pastor are distracting to him.
The Bobocracy (Hdcp: 10.9, Cup: 14.9) CAPTAIN, Ginger 1200s

Undrafted Jeff

The Bobocracy

No lack of self confidence here...Can it be backed up?

Biggest Pro:

Thinks he can go pro - even while bay watching at most opportunities.
The Bobocracy ascends to the Captaincy against Macho Rod. A shoulder is likely to break.

Biggest Pro:
The latest tee time has round one ending at roughly 7:00 pm, which means it's likely he'll still be awake.

The unpredictability of his game and the influence of long-tenured Alumni at IX is sure to mentally crater him.
Hysterectomy Tom (Hdcp: 13)

Undrafted Jeff

The Bobocracy

**New guy alert** and affiliated to Lake Citiers...What could be wrong with that combo?

Biggest Pro:
If that handicap of 13 holds up he will be in the running for rookie of the year.

Biggest Con:
Must overcome overpowering urge to re-watch old twins games...Must be something in the water.
He has a cousin Cathy who likes to travel to foreign countries with a funky uterus.

The Bobocracy

Strong command of his golf game and Zeus like presence on the course.

Biggest Pro:
His handicap has risen this year, which gives him a few more holes to take strokes on, hopefully not from the trees.

Biggest Con:
Depending on the morning commuter traffic in Atlanta, Georgia, the 2015 quinoa crop in Bolivia, or a child in Indonesia who won't stop talking in his backswing, there's a chance of mental breakdown.
