With an old, tried and true putter back in his bag that helped him get his last win in 2009, Dave Pugh of Mystic Hills GC fired 34-33=67 and won the final Pepsi Club Car Tournament Series of the year held at Purgatory GC. “I switched back just today to the same putter that I used to win back-to-back Pepsi Championships in 2008 and ’09 – a short putter,” explained Pugh, who tried a long putter for a while in between. “Most of my birdies were from within six feet today, but I made a long putt on 17 too.” Along with the putter, his caddie was also successful on the greens. “Kevin and I were seeing the same line. Every putt today that we read we both pointed to the exact same spot,” said Pugh.

Both he and his caddie were very familiar with the host course. “I had a good finish in the State Open when it was here. It’s a good golf course for me since I hit it a long way and there is a lot of room out there. I can spread it around a little,” he said. “I drove it really well today and didn’t have much yardage in on most holes. I had a lot of wedges in my hand.”

Pugh’s 67 finished just one shot better than Mike Ahlers of Pine Valley CC and Jamie Broce of Indiana University GC who finished in second with 68’s.
