Sunday's weather looks decent to kick off Leagues at Bevier!

2 CTPs this week:  Hole 5 and Hole 20.
Ace Pool starts at $37 - so come on out and have some fun!

[jimklem]

What a fabulous day to start off Leagues!
After 20 holes, a 3-way tie was broken by a CTP playoff.
Jayson took first, Ryan took 2nd, and Tom took 3rd.

Daniel got Hole 5's cash CTP and the prize CTP will hold over until next week since Tom was closest on Hole 20.

HUGE THANKS to Tom S. for donating 3 sets of CTP prizes!
It is members who keep showing up and giving back that make this club the greatest!

I will post an Excel spreadsheet for stats in the next few days.
See you next week!

[jimklem]

Congrats to Jayson P for playing some consistent golf and taking the lead in points.

We had 11 people at Week 3 of leagues, which is good, but we'd like more players!
Come out on Sunday mornings at 10 and bring your friends!

The Ace Pool is up to $64 and we have enough donated merchandise to have a second CTP almost every week.
Bevier is looking great - c'mon out and play!

I'm super exited to finally be able to play this weekend! Let's pray the weather is nice! (I wouldn't mind terribly playing in the rain but my playing partner, and more importantly my ride, is more of a fair weather fan).

So 21 holes, right? How long (approximately) does that take to play? Do you start right at 10am sharp? Do you meet at the 1st tee or where? What is the format...do you just go off a few at a time and play the 21?

Last question that's less logistical: I lost my midrange the other day, although I rarely use it due to my use of either by fairway driver or a number of putters...do you think that'll be an issue on this particular course?

[jimklem]

jdude97, I hope to see you out there!
Yes, we start at 10am.
We meet in the parking lot and will be easily viewable.
We play 20 holes and it usually takes about 2-2.5 hours tops.
Not many chances to lose a disc; the creek is low and the pond only barely comes into play on one hole.  The holes across the street have some tall rough, but nothing terrible.

Hope to see lots of players on Sunday!  Game ON!

[jdude97]

Thanks for the reply. So you say it's 20 holes? The original poster says 21 holes and the different online holes speak of the new 21st hole added this year? Is it not yet playable or do you just not use it for the league? Just curious. Any course with more than 9 is a stellar course in my book!

I'm glad to hear I won't have much opportunity to lose a disc (that's one "skill" I'm pretty good at), but that was exactly what I was asking. My question was more one of strategy: I lost my midrange a couple weeks ago and have not replaced it, so I was wondering if it would be very bad to play the round with any midranges in my bag. I realize you can't really answer this as you don't know how I throw. My personal assessment is I'll be fine since by Zephyr and other putters act like midranges (if I throw them right...big if) and my Leopard always helps me out. I only threw my midrange once in 54 holes last weekend so I figure I'll be fine. Thanks and I hope to see you there!

[jimklem]

The course is currently 20 holes. We are working things out with the Park District and hope to install #21 before the end of the year.

I usually bring a bunch of discs to sell at leagues for people in exactly your situation. They are used, but they are cheap and in good condition. I know there's a midrange or two in the mix.

I hope to see you today or sometime soon.

ACE POOL is at $61.
CTP (cash) will be Hole 19.
CTP (prize) will be Hole 3.

[jimklem]

Howdy folks!
Leagues have been great and the Ace Pool is now at $70!

Come on out and throw!

Numbers have been changing a lot and Jayson is leading the pack in points.

On the stat sheet to stay! I'll represent those 2 (very generously awarded) points with pride! Thanks Jim!

I'll be back this week, and I come bearing a gift.  I'll put this Buzzz up for a CTP.
