Ratings

[CEValkyrie]

They started to update the ratings. Some are done & i'm one of them.  Thought I was going to get an intermediate rating but they dropped my lowest & i went up 5 points to 924.  

[Jon Brakel]

They are counting 14 rounds in the database for me. My rating went down 2 points to 868. I'm still a Rec player.

Hey, don't look sideways at that rec rating.  Work it!  Get in for prizes at Flip and sell them back to me for 50 cents on the dollar!  

My winter strategy worked wonderfully for giving a high-testosterone rating to a low testosterone guy in sissy pants.  I'm not certain if I can maintain, especially since my pre-Worlds strategy is to play a lot of courses I've never played before during tournament play.  But I think I shot my rating at Boyne this weekend.

huh... The round ratings for Olympia Fields were about 5 points less than when I played with the calculator... but my rating went up 5 pts instead of the 2 pts I expected, and no additional rounds were dropped. I'll take it, but I haven't caught Jon yet    

[CEValkyrie]

I updated the club members page with the current rating for each member. Let me know if there if there is a problem with you rating on that page.

Heck yes, there's a problem!!!

Todd beat Damon AND Diron at Olympia Fields!?!?!?!?!
Good for Todd, but wow!
And . . . Diron and I have the same rating now.  That can't be right; Diron is better than I am! You should have seen him up in Kaukauna - and at Yulga, he beat me by 7 or 9 strokes!!!  (although I got back at him with a -2 at Token Creek!

Todd has been playing great golf lately,   but he has some stiffness/pain in his back so I think I might get an edge over him if I get in gear.  

I don't think much of the PDGA rating system at the moment  ,  It's cool but as far as I'm concerned it's not an accurate depiction of X players "skill" But of course, if my rating takes off I'll sing a different tune  

But I'll take my 859 or whatever I am    Anyways, 7 or 9 strokes Jim? You're too generous, it was more like 3 @ Yulga- which is the coolest course I've ever played

It IS an accurate representation of how you have performed at PDGA events where there were enough generators to create a rated round. If you are improving quickly, it might not move as quickly as you are, which is to the player's benefit. It is NOT supposed to be a testosterone scale, but a way to help match players to their correct division.

Bummer.


I didn't take thoes points into consideration Jon, if I could give you stars I would

You'd make me SEE stars, right?  

You only have two rounds in the database right now Diron and they were both from the Oly, where I think you didn't play to your potential.    If you play well at your next couple of events, you will see your rating reflect that.

[CEValkyrie]

Yes, be patient Diron. It takes several rounds to equal things out. I shot 2 pretty good rounds @ the Prairie Open last year. I had a 950 rating after my first event. I wasn't planning on playing Advanced at all tournaments last year but I had to since that was my rating. Since, i've dropped down to 924.

[D]

I took first at the Moraine Challenege yesterday. If Todd calculated my ratings right he said it should've been 979...

Who knows..

[Todd. Fanning]

I know thats not right i was messn around but who knows

[D]

Suuuure

I'm Prostylte and you know it Fanning  


Oh well, way to get my hopes up

[damonshort]

July update is posted. Looks like everyone went up, and I snuck ahead of Jon  

If the 2nd round at Parkside ever gets rated (none of the Ints got rated either) I should go up a little more, although Peoria's results look screwy. I reported the problem w/ Parkside    

[Jon Brakel]

I was dissapointed that the Streamwood Starter didn't get into this ratings round since I busted my butt to get it done by the time I heard I would have to in order for it to count.

I too was a bit bummed. Wonder why they did not process them.

I noticed the same thing for the Elver Open results.
Maybe they haven't finished updating the Int. division yet?? I hope not, since Parkside is the only tournament I played in that will show up this time around.

[Dan Michler]

well despite my horrible play in the month of june i still went up 2 points to 922.  only 7 points to make up on that bagger brett comincioli    

i guess no intermediate at CL.    No streamwood is atleast good for Todd who stays at 905.

I can't wait for the next update now.  i can finally get rid of some ridiculous rounds from last year.
