2017 Fall Finale
JOE FUSTOLO, BRIAN STAS & NEIL SIMPSON
ARE TOP THREE
October 8, 2017 – HALIFAX, MA - Five contestants were on hand for this one. The weather was seasonably warm, overcast and quite breezy with a threat of rain that materialized early in round three.
Round one saw Rick Clark get off to the best start posting a two cut win over Neil Simpson. In round two Rick and Chris Sarnowski mid-aired hurting both their cumulative scores. Meanwhile Joe Fustolo assumed the contest lead with his second five hundred plus score this one over Brian Stas. In round three Joe increased his lead with a one cut win over Rick. Going into the final round Joe had the clear lead with Brian Stas running a distant second followed closely by Neil. In the semi-final Neil and Brian flew to a one cut apiece draw while Joe hung onto the contest win despite posting a modest final round score.
Thank You to Wingbusters for the use of their great flying field.
