2024 WCSX Screamin Scramble Shenanigans
The 2024 Screamin Scott Scramble: mother nature was a blessing after last year’s rain that shut down half the golf course.
Fernhill Golf Club sold out for the 7th time in a row. The fantastic grounds crew really brought the course around after weeks of heavy rain. The outing was in danger of only being able to use half the course. The back 9 holes were underwater and drained just in time for all the fun.
Improvise and Overcome! The whole place was ready for the scramble and raising money for the Rainbow Connection.
Not The Average Golf Outing Not Even Close
Golfers were treated to the unusual golf outing with tricks at every dogwood right turn. From the Detroit Ghost Busters, Inflatable Godzilla, shotgun-blast start, smoke bombs, games, Jell-O shots, beverage samples, games, raffles, and more all afternoon.
This year’s musical guests performed on the course. We started with a tremendous version of our National Anthem sung by Kelley Johncox. Entertainment on the course was Nathan Grant.
Who Was Logan’s Hero’s?
My great surprise this year was adding Big Jim’s House resident golf pro, Ryan Logan to my team this year. Ryan as you know has his own tremendous golf Ball Washer Podcast find it on wcsx.com .
Ryan was an incredible addition to my team along with ringers, “Yelling John” A West, Cisco Loco Joe Evangelista, Screamin Pops, and myself all followed Ryan Logan and even changed the name of the team to, “Logan’s Heroes.”
The team all had many ESPN highlights throughout the day. Ryan’s and Yelling John’s crushing drives and Loco and myself brought our sensational 30-foot putting skills. The team finished with a respectable score at the end.
My Screamin Scramble Crew Is The Best

The 5 Best Public Golf Courses in Livingston County
As the Host of “The Ball Washer Podcast” I believe it’s part of my job to play golf courses and share my thoughts and suggestions. As a resident of Michigan, I am spoiled with some great golf courses around the entire state. For this list, I want to focus on the top public golf courses in Livingston County.
MY RANKING METHOD:
I have a list of things I considered when ranking the top 5 public golf courses in Livingston County. Right up front, the first thing I look at is spacing on Tee Times. I have always had the thought that tee times should be no closer than 10 minutes apart.
I think that gives each group a good amount of time to get off the first tee and get to the green before the next group is ready to tee off. Second, course conditions and overall appeal. Another thing I take into account is how well the cups are cut, as a guy who use to cut cups on a golf course I took a lot of pride in cutting great, even cups. Now, let’s get to the list.
