Rawls/Redferns lead Texas Father-Son
(Kerrville, TX) Another day of blue skies and
absolutely ideal scoring conditions allowed for
teams to make their way up the leader board
during round two of the 2012 Father-Son
Championship. Kerrville’s Club at Comanche
Trace has provided the field with a formidable
layout even though teams have taken
advantage of “moving day”. Each flight will
head into tomorrow’s final round with teams
battling it out either tied or one stroke behind
among their respective leaders.
The morning wave consisted of the four net
four-ball flights. In the Hogan flight, the
Cliftons and Houstons will head into the final
round tied with a two-day total of 125. The
Cliftons recorded ten birdies, one eagle and
two bogeys en route to a second round 10-
under par 62. The Houstons registered nine
birdies, one eagle and one bogey for their 10-
under 62. Each team posted identical 63-62
rounds heading into tomorrow. The Nelson
flight has two teams vying for the top position
with the Scullys narrowly ahead of the
Maurers. The Scullys played lights out golf in
the second round on their way to a 15-under
par 57. Their two-day total of 63-57—120 is
one stroke ahead of the Maurers 61-60—121.
There are two teams tied at 125 heading into
the final round in the Crenshaw flight. The
Fowlers and Millers shot matching 60-65
rounds. They hold a two stroke lead over the
Summers. The Kite flight will also see a hotly
contested final round with the Wests one
stroke in front of the Hills. The Wests
recorded the low round of the net four-ball
scores with a 16-under par 56. Their two-day
total of 61-56—117 narrowly leads the Wests
58-60—118.
The afternoon wave saw the Championship
flight, which used the gross four-ball scoring
method, finish the second round with two
teams tied at 13-under par 131. The duo of
the Rawls and Redferns each recorded second
round scores of 8-under par 64. The Rawls
made five birdies, two eagles and one bogey
during their round. The eagles came on the
par five 7th and the par four 11th holes. The
Redferns had nine birdies and one bogey. The
Gills, three-time champions, and Starks both
sit one shot back at 12-under par 132.
The format will continue for the net four-ball
flights for the final round, whereas the
Championship flight will be split into two fields.
Those that shot 5-under par after their first
two rounds will play their final round using a
combined gross score format. The remaining
teams in the Championship flight will be paired
into the Presidents flight and continue the
gross four-ball format.
