I regularly curl in the Saturday morning Sportsmen League out of the Victoria Curling Club.
SPARING:
· See Availability below.
· To get hold of me for sparing, please email spare@doug-butler.com or text/phone 250-216-0398.
· Eligibility for Seniors and Masters: 59 years old at the end of 2020.
· Unfortunately, due to COVID19 restrictions, I cannot spare at Esquimalt.
ABILITY / POSITIONS:
· Well over 20 years curling experience.
· Will curl any position, preferring 3rd or 2nd.
· On the better-than-average side of the curve for club-level play (but I do have my days “outside the zone”).
· When playing 3rd, I prepare for “Plan B” and can read the line of shot well… having no trouble letting the sweepers know what’s needed.
· On the technical side, I always play with a stopwatch and can work based on tee-hog times if that’s what you’re looking for (sorry, not practiced with back-line to hog times).
