EBENSBURG, PA — The 2005 Horses Ass, Chuck Long, fired a 11-over par 82 on Thursday at Ebensburg Country Club.  He scored 38 points and moved into 40th place in the 2005 On Tour Championship.

The 82 strokes included a high 36 putts and 4 three-putts.  It also included a birdie on Hole #3.

"I was not exactly on my game today," says Chuck.  "I attribute the score to a lack of beer.  The clubhouse was closed, no water was available on the golf course, and I forgot my cooler."

Chuck Long won the Horses Ass Award in 2005 for several reasons including the use of his wife's golf clubs without knowledge.

The Red Zone Alert expires in 29 days.  There has been no reports of violation to date.

Currently, there are 80 players registered in the On Tour Championship.  Matt Davis continues to hold last position while Jean Dore recently dropped off radar.  Tom Fowble took over 1st position for one day before Ravinder Bakshi leaped back into 1st position with 50.2 points per round.
