Day two of the 2010 Harvest Classic drew to a close as the sun was setting on Palm Harbor, FL. After 36 holes of golf, the field has separated but Bob Hayes remains atop the leaderboard. The first round of the day was scheduled to start at 7:30 at the Copperhead course but due to a frost delay, the round started at 8:30. After a cold round yesterday, the morning round weather was a welcome change as the temperature went up and the wind went down. Bob Hayes kept his strong play up scoring the most points at even as the rest of the field was unable to make a move. Vern Shukoski also was even vs. his point quota as he slowly crept up during the morning round. The highlight of the round was when the second group went to look for their
tee shots on hole #2 at Copperhead, there was a ball located right under the tail of a 10 foot alligator. Because none of the members of the group felt like verifying the ball type it was assumed that is was Patrick Hayes’ ball and he took a drop. Later to find out that Jim Hayes got the same benefit in the first group. See the picture to the left.
The afternoon round the Harvest Classic moved to the Island Course. Everyone grabbed a quick bite to eat and it was off to the first tee. The second round brought much of the same as more of the field moved south than north on the leaderboard. The best round vs. quota points belonged to Dr. Kent Dickson as he scored +2 points. Vern Shukoski, Kevin Hayes and Bob Hayes all scored -1 points as they held firm to their spots on the leaderboard.
Going into the final round Bob Hayes has an eight point lead over Tom Hayes but there are still 18 holes of golf left to play (see all scores below). Vern Shukoski has his game dialed in as he was talking smack about making the greatest comeback in Harvest Classic history. While the group was having pizza Vern was seen driving the Havest Classic trophy to a local engraving shop and having them engrave his name as the 2010 champ.
