Here are the Finalists for 2014. With a banner crop of entries it was tough to narrow them down to just five. It should be noted that entrants did not earn extra points for multitudinous posts or photos that could be equated to bragging about being able to drive a Par 4. I did, however, enjoy the nod to Ran's latest message that showed up late in the thread.
Please pick one photo in Category A (Category B's winner is noted below) and submit your vote either by posting in this thread or by sending me a Private Message. Since we got a late start this year, I'll close the voting at the end of the day on Jan. 1.
In lieu of prizes this year I will be making a donation to the fund for Ted Cahill's son. If anyone who has not yet donated wishes to match, please feel free.
Memorials can be made to:
Bank of America
Ryan Robert Cahill Education Trust
c/o Margaret Bottorff
2005 Rochester Ct.
Iowa City, IA 52245
A special nod to Padraig Dooley, who would have been in the running this year for his Lahinch Goats if he hadn't won last year.:
