Fairfield Saturdays

[Cannon Boy]

College is sucking at Harper.  I do not have time for anything but a round or two at the palatine park in between classes.   Really miss the Thursday night league but with soccer from 5 to 7:30 every day it kind of screws any weekday leagues I was playing.  I am pretty sure I am going to the Saturday league this week though.  Not sure if we are going to have practice Saturday but I will find out tomorrow.  I got Fridays of at least so I will be out at Fairfield all day tomorrow or at least until 3:30.

Turnout is on the rise!

The Lake County player base is booming. League #'s are booming too.

Thursday Fairfield League has had around 30 the past 3 weeks.
Waukegan League is averaging 19 this summer.
Adler Continues to hold strong as usual.


Last night at Fairfield was crazy. There were 30 league players along with at least another 30 casual players.

Are the fairfield best shots every saturday?
Are they random teamings or can you pick your team?
What time do they start if they are still going on?

[Mitch]

Saturdays will continue until further notice.
11 am-random draw

[K-Biscuit]

damn.  i gotta check that out.  is it worth going?

[Brian]

do you still give strokes for us lesser skilled players?

[Dan Michler]

no strokes are given.  u can usually count on the league taking place, although it might start 20+ minutes late.  don't expect it to be well organized like Bevier leagues either.

[Bruce Brakel]

damn.  i gotta check that out.  is it worth going?

It is random draw doubles which means the best team you could be on is a pro paired with you, whereas the best team out there is likely to be a pro paired with a very good amateur, but it could be two pros.  All the cash that goes in comes back out, except the ace pool rolls over if no one hits it.  You can probably learn something from most of the players out there.  For you it is probably $6 spent on a semi-organized round of disc golf with some better players. 

I'm not a big fan of random draw doubles.  It is kind of a house bet where the top pro who comes out every week is the house.  Any kind of random draw doubles is a house bet for the top pro, but at least with pro-am you know he is getting a weak partner.  Bevier on Sunday is pro-am.

[K-Biscuit]

thanks for the info Bruce.  i'm definately going to play the beavier sunday league as much as i can, starting this sunday.  having the pro-am thing is nice, so i'll prbably stick to that for now.
