In order to better support our charitable cause, I will be doing a 50/50 raffle. If you bring cash, great, that makes it easier. If you don’t, I have almost every payment app, so we can do it that way.

I also might try to bring a nice bottle of booze or something to auction off or raffle. Just something to try to raise a little more money.

My wife will also be there to help direct traffic, play gopher, help out with any scoring issues, and take some professional photos that can be used for social media.

We will probably do some quick announcements and team photos around 745. If you have a later tee time, feel free to show up at 740, and then you can head to the range to warmup after that. If you are going off earlier, please try to be there in time to get warmed up and ready to go before announcements.

I can bring a bottle of whiskey to auction/raffle off. I’ll let the group decide which one they’d prefer I bring.


  • OWA Party Source Pick
  • Blanton’s Chris Gasbarro Pick

TPS picks are typically pretty conservative/close to standard flavor profile, but I’d still take an OWA pick over Blanton’s pick any day.

Is it a screw top or gold foil?

Screw top. I also have a Stop Liquors OWA pick and a Canal’s Family Selection OWA pick. Could bring one of those instead of the Party Source if preferred.

Meant to mention it on the call, but I might have a mini Springfield CC print in a L+L style that we could add to the raffle or 50/50.

Without knowing anything about the other pickers, TPS is such a big store that it might have a small edge, but if they’re all screw top picks, the values will be roughly the same for each of them.

Screw tops carry more value than more recent gold foil picks, but any of them or the Blanton’s would perform well in a charity auction!

Keep in mind, this is going to be an in person thing next weekend, not a big online auction

Asking for a friend, did I miss the tee time posting?

Matchups are available on the signup sheet, but start times should be available tomorrow. You’re playing Ben, who is coming from AA, so I’d guess you would be early to mid tee time

Was it stated that there was a preference for us to ride for this, for time purposes?

Yeah riding would be preferred. If anyone is dead set on walking, it would be fine for singles I guess. Alt shot should definitely be in a cart. End of the day, let’s see what the weather looks like, how much public play we have to deal with, and what kind of pace we’re on. It doesn’t really matter to me what anyone does as long as we can finish on time
