Why are we doing an event on a Tuesday?
Do you want to test yourself?
Do you want to flex your LCP?
Do you want to see what your score would look like compared to a pro?
Do you just enjoy punishment?
Are you a true sicko?
How would I compare to those attempting to qualify for the U.S. Open?
The Tuesday after U.S. Open Qualifying at Springfield Country Club, we will be having an OATW Signature event to see what USGA conditions look like. Pin placements will be the same as those used for the U.S. Open Qualifier.
Because of the limited nature of the event, priority will be given to OATW Nest members that were not able to play last year. At midnight on May 4th, any repeat offenders on the waitlist will be used to fill any open spots.
What - OATW Almost Qualifier
When - Tuesday, June 3
Registration at 12:00 PM
First Tee Time at 1:00 PM
Where - Springfield Country Club, Springfield, OH
Cost - $160/per person. $60 due on sign up
Signup will be through Unknown Golf (https://ukg.golf/q?ac=OKYs7FPN). When signing up on Unknown Golf you’ll be assigned to the waitlist. Once you Venmo me (@strickfaden, Last 4 8961) the initial $60 non-refundable payment you’ll get moved to the confirmed list. The remainder will be due on May 4th.
Again, I cannot stress this enough, but if you have not experienced this you should really do it. It is such a fun time getting humbled, you won’t regret it. Of course I’m hoping that there is still a spot left for me when its all said and done, but I will not be salty if a bunch of newbies get a chance to play.
I also have an incredibly understanding wife who is letting me do this on our anniversary.
I’ve always wanted to play a PGA Tour course right before/after a tournament was held there so this is going to be pretty dang close to that. I’m pumped.
Honestly, the amount of lost balls is an under appreciated stat at a golf course. SCC is just not set up to lose a ton of balls. You are more likely to lose it in the rough than OB or water.
For sure. The small group that made the first one of these knows all too well. It was mid day on the Saturday and carts weren’t allowed. It was so damn hot.
On the plus side. It gets extra spicy. The fairway bounces are electric.
Can confirm. I like to think I’m in decent shape and thought I might pass out on 17 hah.
Couldn’t agree more, it’s an absolute gem.
While I hope there are enough spots for some of us on the waitlist, I can’t recommend this event enough for any newbies on the fence. It’s so fun while still being incredibly humbling for everyone except @jack67
Hi all - tried to follow the link but I don’t believe I am part of the OATW roost yet. I did fill out the info to join, but haven’t heard anything. I’m in Cincinnati. Can anyone help with that?
We are officially 5 weeks out from the day. If you are on the wait list, as soon as you Venmo the deposit, I will move you into the field. We still have spots open and I am going to open it up to anyone starting now.
