North Star Shootout 4 (NSU Roost Major) - Minneapolis, MN - July 15, 2023

I actually passed on getting them sent to me due to them being handed off in person to the next vs trusting our lovely shipping options with everything going on right now.

Maybe somebody else asked about them, but them not being there is on me.

Team ā€œTruth Hurtsā€ >> I have some shiiiiit news; courtesy of extended family drama my wife informed me that she’s rescheduled my daughter’s 1st birthday party to this Saturday :frowning:

Translation: I’m out of the shootout if I want to still be married come Sunday. Hopefully there’s someone on the wait list that can take my spot… that said, let me know if anybody from this squad has interest in getting out for a practice round at WBYC Friday (7/14).

After some back channeling with @bignanski , I will be attempting to organize a derby (aka Horse Race) in the afternoon. It’s a fantastic late day activity, can potentially kick it off after the competitive matches have finished.

It will be $10 buy in with $5 rebuys, 2 man true alt shot teams. Rebuys available thru hole 6 (9 holes total) and top 2 teams share the pot 70/30. Elimination every hole, with chip-off to tie break. All scores are gross, handicapping is achieved by pairing lowest HCP with highest

I’m really just throwing this out there to see if there is interest, I’ll organize this day of if we have 10+ interested. It’s a great format that allows 10-25+ folks play golf all at once, and we have a pretty rare opportunity on our hand with the whole golf course as your playground

Time you thinking?

Thanks to my engineer being a jackass and scheduling a dinner meeting for us on Thursday evening in downtown Milwaukee, WBYC is going to have to be another trip. @bignanski has already scolded me profusely.

I appreciate the invite! Unfortunately won’t be able to make it Friday.

I’d be in, open to timing of you and others

Would anyone be open to a twilight round Friday? Honestly I’ve slacked on looking, but am itching to meet up with a few guis and play before the party starts on Saturday.

someone else asked, and barring anything silly with fedex, they’ll be there

@bignanski I nearly pulled the trigger on a hotel room last night. Unfortunately I just found out I have to go to Ohio for work this weekend. We should get a round in at the Ope -in though. Maybe run the dartboard at the Goose Blind too.

Just getting back to the Refuge after a full day of bullshit, I have requested them and they should be en route to me.
