Chad Blodgett

Dad, Devin and I had an idea this year - we would track all of our rounds of golf that we played together and then rank the three of us against each other to reveal who the real best player in the family is. We call it the “Blodgett World Rankings in Golf.”

When the three of us play together - it is considered a “Major” tournament and so it is weighted heavier then rounds where just two of the three play with each other (rounds where there is less then two representatives from the Blodgett tour don’t count for the rankings).

This year there were 4 majors (the 4th will be played at Talons Cove on Oct 13th) and several minors. My Dad and Devin have each won one major out right, and the third major was a tie between my dad and I.

The gallery’s are starting to get big - the courses we play have begun to have to hire extra help to keep the fans in designated areas.

This year should be know as “the year of the Dadders” because he dominated. Some interesting stats about this year…

Worlds #1 Golfer: Dad
Rounds played: Dad 10, Devin 9, Chad 8.
Wins: Dad 7, Chad 3, Devin 2
Scoring Ave: Chad 82.7, Dad 83.2, Devin 85.5
Courses Played: Thanksgiving Point, Tri-City, Wasatch, Boundry Oaks, Deer Ridge, Talons Cove, Wente, and Contra Costa County Club.

With one more Major left for the year there is a battle for second place between Devin and I (dad has clinched 1st place). While Dad doesn’t need to even show - the purse is rather large for this final major and so he’ll be there.

We are hoping that next year we can add Brett, Dave, and Pete.

Anyway - this has been a lot of fun and something that keeps us interested. It turns our love of Golf into more of a competition…which Blodgetts just crave
