The Vieder brothers dom-
inated the B’
nai B’
rith golf
league this summer.
Adam Veider and Ryan
Vieder won the team cham-
pionship. Jeff Vieder won
the individual champion-
ship and finished in second
place in the team standings
with Mitch Cohen.
Adam and Ryan tied for
second place in the individ-
ual standings.
That’
s not a bad haul for
the first season the brothers
played in the league.
Jeff has a regret, though.
“I really focused on the
team competition. I wanted
to beat my brothers,” he
said. “For me, winning the
individual championship
was secondary.
“Are the three of us com-
petitive with each other? Of
course. Will we talk about
the golf league season? We
will. At some point. It’
s still
fresh right now.”
The brothers joined the
league through a connec-
tion Jeff and Ryan have
with league organizer Gary
Klinger.
They bowl with Klinger
in the Brotherhood-Eddie
Jacobson B’
nai B’
rith league
and used to play softball
with Klinger in the former
B’
nai B’
rith league.
“It was fun playing in the
golf league. It was a good
group of guys,” said Jeff,
who considers himself a
better golfer than bowler.
“I haven’
t quite figured
out bowling yet,” he said.
Adam, 33, is the youngest
of the three Vieder brothers.
He lives in West Bloomfield
and is an emergency room
physician.
Jeff, 36, of West
Bloomfield, owns an insur-
ance agency.
Ryan, 38, of Farmington
Hills, is employed by an
online custom apparel and
merchandise firm.
They each graduated from
North Farmington High
School, but they graduat-
ed from different colleges.
Adam went to Michigan
State; Jeff went to Walsh and
Ryan went to Michigan.
This was the seventh year
for the golf league and the
sixth at the Links of Novi.
Golfers play nine holes
weekly.
There were 10 two-man
teams this season and three
substitutes.
“It was a great season for
competition and camara-
derie,” Klinger said. “Ten
is a nearly perfect number
of teams. Maybe we could
have one more team, but
it’
s already dark and cold
late in the round at the
beginning and end of the
season.”
There were 14 weeks of
competition this season.
Only one week was rained
out.
