2017 Yearbook (2)

22-23 / 138

West Des Moines’ Joe Palmer battled back after an
opening round 75 to post two under-par 70. Palmer
commented that he had not seen or played the course in
a long time but was able to put together a good round.
“I made some mistakes in the first round,” Palmer said.
“Today I played better. My goal was to get it back to par.
I thought if I shot 69 that would make the leaders have to
shoot something under par too. I really didn’t know how
I stood until the last putt.”
This title adds a new accomplishment to the résumé
for Palmer: “This trophy is one I had never won, this
one and the State Amateur,” Palmer said. “I have been
fortunate to get the others, now I just need to concentrate
and see what we can do at the Iowa Amateur.”
