After a variety of hiccups, the 2021 Gutty Gopher took place ad hoc after all. Canceled first because of low registrations, dates moved to accommodate the few who wanted to play, dates moved again because of family issues, the 2021 VaHGA Gutty Gopher took place on the original date, October 2nd, 2021 at Meadowcreek Golf Course in Charlottesville where a hardy core of four gutty enthusiasts met to contest the trophy. The four came from Virginia Beach in the east, Arlington in the north, Lynchburg to the south and Charlottesville in the center. The weather was beautiful, perfect, and the course in good “rough around the edges” hickory shape. Dennis Meadows from Virginia Beach was our medalist while Rob Gilbert from Lynchburg took net honors. Generally, a good time was had by all. Clubs were exchanged, promised, renovated, and only a couple of balls lost. Rob Gilbert was “best dressed” for the day.
