WI Tour

[shawn]

Mike Cozzens is not having a Pro weekend for Northwoods this year.  Only Am weekend will be played due to not making enough money with the Pro weekend.  Bummer as I was planning on playing the Pro weekend this year...guess I'll have to play Am weekend.

tour dates

[SERG]

Played at Baraboo this past weekend. Entire tourny was done by 3:00. There were only 25 Intermediate Men, 3 Intermediate Women and maybe 10 Juniors.

I had a good time (tied for 4th, just three strokes out of first) and it was a beautiful day. The girlfriend took second...this is a good way of getting her hooked to the game!

One note regarding player's packs: Like I said earlier, I could care less if there is a package or not...but I heard some fairly disgruntled people this past weekend. Our player's pack was a WI Tour mini disc, nothing else. I got a cool orange color one, don't have an orange mini.

Anyone planning on playing the Pickle Open on Saturday?

Nice shooting.  You are not long for Intermediate if you keep turning in 930 and 940 rated rounds.

Baraboo was a C-tier.  There is no player pack requirement for a C-tier.  The Td can give you as much or as little as he wants for a C-tier player pack.

I will be playing the Pickle Sunday.

As far as the player package goes. I think that more than a couple of stops on the Wis Tour gave out a mini last year. Last year at the Pickle you got a mini if you were lucky enough to catch one as they threw the few they had into the crowd.

Thanks for the information, Bruce.

My goal is to move that rating up and play advanced next year...maybe even by the end of this year. Alot of work to do, but I'm feeling pretty confident lately. Playing as bad as I did in the Prairie Open, on my home course, really straigtened me out a little.

I had the "coveted" black disc in my reach...and then pulled my arms back into my body...I lost a first place playoff on the first hole

I threw -14 with 2 bogeys on the day (both bogeys in the second round). The guy I tied with deuced hole 18 to tie. He started the playoff hole with a shot that landed about 15 feet from the basket. I went for all the marbles and threw probable less than a foot for an ace, but down a fairly large bluff (for those that know Vollrath you know Hole #1). Oh well, maybe next time.

Overall it was a pretty fun tourny. First time I ever played Vollrath so I was pretty happy. There were 50 Intermediate Ams, so I picked up some good points in the Wisconsin Tour standings.

 Ahahahahahah how long has that been there

Good going Serg.

I managed to avoid a crash-and-burn at Vollrath today.    I felt frustrated with a -3 the 1st round, missed several putts but consoled myself with the fact that except for a gacked upshot on 18 (my next-to-last hole) I was bogey-free, even on the longer extra holes.

It was pretty windy there today but I was still rather surprised that I made the top card for the 2nd round. I kept it together with a -6 with no bogeys (although I still missed 3 or 4 makeable putts) and wound up tied for third, and ignored the voices screaming in my head to (barely) deuce the 1st playoff hole for a trophy - actually a cool framed photo of the 'lake monster' hole.

Dennis Miller matched my 2nd round score but lost the playoff for first. I think there were 10 or 11 adv masters there.

Aaron Wield won open, to no one's surprise - I think he's won every year Barry wasn't there and at least one year when he was; I don't know his score but it was well over -20 for the day, I think he was -14 the 1st round alone (20 holes).

Vollrath is a very cool course; it's kind of like trying to hit a change-up in baseball; you know the basket is 'right there', but it's not always all that easy to get there, especially when the wind is swirling around.

Anyhow, it was a relief to finally put two decent rounds together.
