Congratulations to our very own Jim Self, who recently journeyed back to his native Tennessee to compete in the 92nd annual Bugtussle CC Varmint Shootout.A prestigious event on the BRASS (Blue Ridge-Appalachians-Smokey Mountain) Tour, "The Varmint" is contested using a variation of the popular Stableford Modified Scoring System. In addition to accumulating points for score against par (i.e., bogey: -1 point; par: + 1; birdie: + 3; eagle: + 7), the members of each team also receive points for the type and number of indigenous game species bagged during the course of each round (i.e., hound dog: -1; chipmunk: +3; squirrel: +5; possum: +7).
Thanks to Jim's legendary short game and the keen marksmanship of Jed "Skunk Turd" McCoy (pictured above, top left, at the post-tournament BBQ and moonshine tasting), Team Self captured the 2009 Shootout, achieving their quota in both points and varmints.
Congratulations, Jim!
