COLUMBUS, OH — There is playing golf, taking money, kicking butt, watching a hackfest and absolute comedy.  There was plenty of comedy provided down the stretch as Scott Miller and Chad Long dualed throughout the back nine in hopes of not placing last.  The comedy skit finalized with a tie after 18 holes with both players carding 133 strokes.

"To beat anyone by 52 strokes is kind of amazing, but two players was not what I expected", said Greg Long.  "Usually that kind of hacking brings my game down and frustrates the group.  With the exception of my normal three 3-putts, I was quite happy with my round."

Scott Miller shot 38-over par on the front nine carding a 75 before going into attack-mode and shooting a 22-over par 58.  This attack managed to chase Chad Long down on the back nine.  Chad started strong with a 63 on the front, but slipped to a 33-over par 70 on the back to tie Miller on the final hole.

"These guys need a swing coach", said Slick.  "Comments like Chad Long made on #13 tee after my birdie 3 was not things you like to hear on any golf course."  After Greg's birdie, he teed up and hit another long drive down the right side of the fairway.  Chad moved towards the tee, stopped and motioned to Miller saying, "Didn't you have a 9.  It's your turn."  Chad pushed his tee shot on #12 into the water.  He proceeded to drop laterally and spray 5 additional shots into the water taking stroke and distance because of the steep spray right.  He carded a 13 on hole 12 and gave up the tee box to Miller who carded a 9.
