@Double_Bogey_Dave

There will be 1 NIT spot for March Mudness

And with your spirit.

Special Announcement for those of us that have sold our souls to the Corporate Man - make sure to check and see if your company will do a matching donation to the First Tee if you buy raffle tickets! I benefitted in a big way from corporate matching for my 100 Hole Hike fundraiser. It takes <5 minutes and can double your impact. DO IT.

Top raffle prizes are of course the golf rounds at Skokie, Blacksheep, and Olympia Fields, but lots of other great stuff in there, too.

Kinda sick we have private club rounds at 3 of the Top 10 courses in the state up for grabs. Doubt any other Roost event can match that. Get in!

GAME!
The game will be quota. You need a handicap for this game.

@djheadley and @PinkPantser can be the official competition committee to workshop all takes on the game and help discuss any modifications.

We need to sort out what tees to play cause I forget what we do each year.

Let’s do a Sweet 16 cut this year. we’ll do four groups of four starting at 4 or so on 17, 18, 1, and 2. We’ll need some golf carts nearby to haul people around.

It’s just a hole by hole net match play tournament from here on out. Can pop off the low guy in the group.

It’s an honor to be appointed co-chief championships officer with @djheadley for this prestigious event. This is where i’m at on the format:

• I believe we played from the white tees (6400 yards, slope 122) last year and I say we run that back.
• We will use this scoring for the quota game - 0 pts for double+, 1pt for bogey, 2pt for par, 4 pt for birdie, 8pt for eagle. We will set the baseline quota at 36 points and your individual quota is automatically established based on your index. All scoring day of in the quota game is gross.
• I have set up a scorekeeping tab in the spreadsheet. Please check your index in the main signup tab (not the scorekeeping tab), if you don’t have an index you will play off scratch (looking at you @Jrembold). The only thing you need to do is put your point total after the round, everything else is automatically calculated.
• top 16 players advance to net match play. tie breaker play-in TBD, i’ll have to consult with my co-chief @djheadley on whether we want to do USGA style or something more exciting

@TeddyPargame will have to confirm

If there isn’t room, there might be a late drop, so in the words of pargame “watch this space”

[Jrembold]

Just entered. Thank you for the heads up.

And for transparency my GHIN # is 3020337

I thought I said something earlier but I’ll do another $100 gift card to the ski shop.

@TeddyPargame

We used to get NIT invites for this and more, but as the events ecosystem has gone corporate it appears Mudness has been left behind

I kid.

Thanks for all you and everyone else has done to put this event on. Super stoked to be there.

Unfortunately I will have to drop out of the Mudness. I tried swinging yesterday to see how my back would hold up after an injury and it is not there yet. I will remove myself from the spreadsheet so that someone else can fill my spot that wanted to get in.

[rmbartell]

@RLSIII I can fill that spot if it hasn’t already been taken
