The first Lobstick of the season is in the books at Waskesiu Golf Course, and Rick Hallberg has his first Senior Men’s Lobstick championship.
After a couple near misses in recent years, the Weyburn product and proud Golf Kenosee member outlasted the field, and Brad Phelps in the final group on day three to win the coveted plague.
Hallberg posted rounds of 70, 75, and 73 to edge both Phelps and last year’s champion Paul Briske by a pair of strokes.
Hallberg spoke to Golf Saskatchewan after the win on Thursday.
Winning the Super-Senior category for the first time was Saskatoon player Milt Grolla. He carded stellar rounds of 76, 75, and 76.
