just to let everyone know there is now a Wednesday night league in Lake County. Last night was the first week which went really well exept the 40 mph winds. We started at 5:20 with two foursomes and finished with plenty of light left. Congrats to Luke and Shaun butler for shooting a -11 and taking home 40.00. Tee off will be 5:30 till april 18 then i will bump it to 6pm for those of you that work late. There are some pretty tough alternate holes laid out, so the back 9 plays pretty tough. Hope to see some of you guys next week.
we had a succsesfull wednesday night doubles (despite 40 mph winds and thunderstorms) last night. congrats to alex and mike porto shooting a -13 and taking home 40.00. ace pot up to 24.00. i donated an extra ten bucks to get it moving. we had a few more peolple show up but left b4 doubles due to the weather. thanks to kvn for sponsoring a ctp for hole 7. next week there will be 2 ctps. myself will donate a star firebird and kvn will have a new proto type deoblo. hope to see more of you next week. 5:30 tee off.
I'll make it there sometime. I chose to stay home last night when that big rain started moving in. I'll be in Denver next Wednesday. Hopefully i'll be there in 2 weeks.

another successfull wednesday night doubles myself and rob schonoff shot a -11 to take home the cash. ace pot up th 30.00 already. alternates still to muddy to play but we should be able to play them next week. thats it for me hope to see some of you next week. OFF TO BOWLING GREEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
another windy and cold wednesday night doubles. congrats to myself and jose diaz on first place shooting a -10 and taking home 40.00. ace pot up to 38.00. 6 pm tee off from here on out through summer. also were discussing a date for a 10.00 entry fee for a night of iron man doubles some wednesday night in may. it will be a great time with a hefty pay out. i will keep you guys informed when we make the final decision on a set date. most likley it will either be 5/2 or 5/9. see you guys next week 6 pm tee off!!!
I was playing out there this am and I saw some flags for alternate tees. Couldn't find all of them, though. Anyone give a quick run down on where they are?
#10 just ahead of the park sign next to the bench
#11 walk opposite way of #2 teepad to walking path straight shot to basket
#12 bomber hole walk towards school, top of hill throw over soccer field
#13 walk past 4 teepad to end of tree line straight shot through trees
#14 just behind original tee pad
#15 still in the works due to soccer goals set up pretty much straight back for 6 teepad even with 5 teepad. flags were there but got pulled up when they set up the soccer gaols.
#16 top of elevated platform of concrete straight shot to basket
#17 walk past 8 teepad to the field big hyzer shot to basket
#18 bomber hole teepad even with the big oak tree in 17 fairway.
let me know of any more questions.
Justin
If you get a chance i'd suggest looking at few different alternate tee placements. For a righty there are no anhyzer shots from the cement tees or the alternate tees.
To the right of hole #2 when facing the basket there is a nice place to add an anhyzer where the hyzer would be blocked off of the fence & trees.
It wouldn't be an anhyzer but stand on the walking path on the north side of the park after playing # 3's basket. It's a great tee pad and a long straight shot to #4's basket with trouble on the right & left. There is a nice alley to the basket. It would be crossing #3's fairway but does not interfere.
#7 There is a nice anhyzer farther back of the tee to #7 if it's tucked to the right side of the walking path when facing the basket.
Just throwing out some ideas.
thanks for the ideas, this is a work in progress. i wanted to get more anhyzers thrown in there but it is a small park to work with the way the have 1-9 layed out as you know.. ive said since day one any suggestions are appreciated. we should hook up one day for a round (maybe this wednesday b4 doubles) and walk through and tweak out a few holes. i have a few ideas im working on which we can go over and let me know what you think.
looks like some good weather tonight for doubles at grayslake finally. we will be teeing off at 6 pm. ace pot at 38.00. some of the alternates have been changed so come check them out. see you guys tonight
How much does this league cost?

Yes! For all you righties out there the rule is, hold the firecracker, M80, etc. in your LEFT hand and the lighter in your RIGHT hand. Lefties, please reverse the above directions.
fresh ace pot starting tonight. check in 5:45 tee off 6pm. bring your bug spray
course is playing real tough right now. 3 weeks in a row a -7 has won. last night luke and porto were the big winners taking home 50.00. no tenny shimo last night, hits the ace and doesnt come the following week? :nono:
looks like good weather tonight. we will still start a 6pm for 2 more weeks cuz the course plays so fast. 31.00 ace pot going into tonight. see you there
we had 8 people last night (in the rain like usual). rob schonoff hit the ace in hole 5 (short) cashing in 39.00. 5:45 tee off next week
also al and fred were the winners with a -8. winning 40.00
Did they mow the grass out there? I contacted the GPD and they said they'd get on it immediately.
no they are still pretty over grown with that cabbage looking stuff. its getting pretty out of control in somes areas. i wouldnt be surprised if they do cut it that there wont be shreds of plastic littering the course. i find a disc everytime i paly that course.
5:45 tee off tonight. ace pot starting fresh, got hit last week on 5. hopefully the fairways are mowed.
tee off at 5:30 this week, new course record shot last week by me and chris jordan with a -13. ace pot is huge at 7 dollars. dont forget to bring your bug spray.
Have the fairways been cut?

Have the fairways been cut?
yeah they did a pretty good job for the most part. i think they cut them 2 weeks ago thursday becouse the grass was getting kinda long already at dubs last week but all the cabbage looking stuff has all been cut down so that has helped out alot and makes the course look a lot better
Did'nt me and Luke shoot a -14 or -15?

on the old layout. we had to move a few holes due to high school football practice. and some of the cement tees have been moved also. but i do remember you two clowns shooting somthing like that. ^_^
coming into the last few weeks of wednesday night dubs. 10/24 will be the last week, so we have 4 weeks left. tee off 5:15 this week. ace pot only at $7.00. i cleared it out 2 weeks ago with an ace on hole 5. only three aces all summer. one by Tom S. on hole #4 for $136.00, one by Rob S. for $37.00 on hole 5 and mine on hole 5 also for 27.00. all in all a pretty productive summer for the first year.
sign up at 5pm tee off by 5:10 the latest this week. 14.00 ace
dubs this week will be at fairfield park to warm up for this weekends IOS. 20.00 ace pot 5pm tee off.
