I will be out at the Club Challenge this Saturday. It's a good time to pre-register for this tournament (or Scott's Channy tourney or Brett's Chicagoland Am tourney). Lots of fun tournaments coming up. Don't miss out.

Pre-registration only! Only three more weeks until this event.

I have the first place trophies done.  If you are planning on playing in a one of the other divisions not shown below, please pre-register so I can get the trophy made.

[Dan Michler]

Sent my registration today.  Looking forward to playing this course again.

[I suck]

All I want to do is beat Dan M. at this event.  So i have to play well, at least second to last place.

To reward those that are willing to pre-reg before the 10 day forecast starts predicting the weather for the Spring Fling, I will draw at least one name from those pre-registered by April 6 (either online or by postmark). The winner will receive a Marshall Street DVD.

Multiple players have requested the Advanced Grand Master Division. I have now added it to Sunday.

I will be out at Eagle Ridge Good Friday morning working on the course til about noon. It would be a great time to hand me your pre-registration.

The following Google Map link shows the course map for the Oswego Spring Fling. Shorts are in red, longs are in blue. The alternate tee/pin location for 3 and (if needed) 13a are shown. For hole 3, I flagged and painted the pin and the short tee location. The long tee will either be the limestone tee box or an area near there.

Mike,

What's the format - one round shorts and one long for all divisions?  Sunny with highs near 70 later this week   

[pickax]

The plan is first round shorts, second round longs. Hole 3 will be in an alternate position (about 40 ft SW of the current pin) and the short/log tees will be moved. This should help prevent discs from going into the fenced township yard to the North. The location of the short tee and the alt pin location are painted/flagged. There *might* be a 13a, but that is only if I need it to speed play. I have posted other course notes on the Fox Valley Metro Site.
