Club Champions Club Champions Winners’ Circle 34 THE MET GOLFER DECEMBER 2006/JANUARY 2007 WWW.MGAGOLF.ORG Bridging the Gap Carol Fontana Carol Fontana first played golf at age 11 with her father at Dyker Beach in Brooklyn, but soon put her clubs away for several years due to the lack of organized junior golf programs at the course. She began playing more seriously twenty years ago, and eventually worked her Handicap Index down to between 1 and 2. Power is her big advantage: She routinely belts her drives 240 to 250 yards. That’s long, but still not long enough to carry the Narrows. So Carol takes the bridge between her two clubs, the Women’s Division of South Shore on Staten Island and the Brookridge Women’s Golf Club at Dyker Beach. Fortunately for her, Brookridge held its championship on Saturdays and South Shore on Sundays, so she didn't have to battle the weekday traffic on the Verrazano to win both titles. The MGA sent out championship forms to all member clubs. Please write to [email protected] if your club champions are not listed.

Three of the five (Blumenfeld, Hoit and Small) earned placement on the 2006 MGA Honor Roll, which recognizes the top 10 finishers in MGA Player of the Year points. Jay Blumenfeld of Mountain Ridge Country Club had a terrific season and was this year’s NJSGA Player of the Year. He won his 15th championship at Mountain Ridge, and also had a strong showing in the British Mid-Amateur and at the MGA Senior Open at Nassau. Roger Hoit is the 2006 Ike champion and was a semi-finalist in this year’s Met Amateur, played at his home club, Baltusrol. The 43-year-old won his fifth club championship at the storied venue in Springfield, an accomplishment made even more impressive because Hoit came to competitive golf fairly late in life. His rise to prominence was foreshadowed in 2004 when he reached match play in both the U.S. Amateur and Mid-Amateur. Ron Vannelli again dominated play at the club championship at Metuchen Golf & Country Club, and Michael Deo the 58-year-old is enjoying a renaissance on the golf course. He was the Jerry Courville Sr. MGA Player of the Year in 2005, a season during which he won the Met Amateur and tied for second in the MGA Senior Open. This year Ron tied for 6th in the Ike Championship and qualified for the U.S. Mid-Amateur, and also competed in the French-American Matches in October. Michael Deo, the youngest of the group, won the 2005 New York City Amateur and represented the MGA in France at the French-American Matches in October. Though he only joined Montclair Golf Club last year, has already garnered a place on the club championship plaque. Allan Small, in contrast, has his name plastered all over the walls at Fairmount Country Club. The MGA’s newly elected Vice President won his 13th club championship in a season that saw him win the New Jersey Mid-Amateur in May (20 years after his last win in the Mid-Am, in 1986) and the Hochster Memorial at Quaker Ridge Golf Club. Small also represented his club and the MGA well in national events, playing in this year’s U.S. Senior Open and winning a match at the 2006 U.S. Senior Amateur.

  • Canadian Golfer, March, 1927
    RS ae eS...”6h “PULLING” A BALL “To ‘pull’ a ball at will, two factors predominate, the ‘stance’ and the action of the right side of the body and right shoulder at the moment of impact. The right foot should be in the rear of the left, the left side of the body being braced throughout. In swinging, care should be taken to see that the right shoulder does not get in advance of the club-head on the down swing. If it does, a ‘cut’ will result. Hit ‘outward’ more than in the ordinary swing, the pressure coming almost entirely from the right side, right forearm, and wrist. The bracing of the left side resists this pressure almost to the point of complete domination, and prevents the wild ‘hook’ that is so often seen when players attempt this most skilful stroke.” —J.
