In about 24 hours we will be launching em for the 4th annual THE Final Round.

  • 10:45AM Start
  • 10AM we should have some biscuits and coffee ready for everyone
  • push carts were recommended if you plan to walk, but bring your own the course will not have any

Looking forward to seeing you out at Greensboro National for this event.

Pairings
(I don’t know what hole we will be shotgunning off of but group 1 will be our first hole)

Group 1: swing_hard_and_hope, mintbucket, Grambom2, Sleepy
Group 2: BCates, Zach B, jsteve15, Con_nc
Group 3: Deven75, bshep, Jeff_M, westerj12
Group 4: Hawk, tdaly, Are_you_double_D, rkris
Group 5: DoubleBogeyDave, Rdugolfer, Taffy, Jnglds
Group 6: grizzly224, Harper, shane_werran7, ColoniusFunk

Format
In classic fashion we are going to do a quota game to determine our winner, but lets add a twist. As always you will start with your course handicap minus 36 and gain points as you go (0 for double or worse, 1 for bogey, 2 for par, 4 for birdie, 8 for eagle)
The twist:

  • 4 holes of your choosing will be “double holes”
  • Must choose 2 par 4, 1 par 3, and one par 5
  • There will be a negative downside for making double or worse on these selected holes
  • Scoring as follows: -2 double, 2 for bogey, 4 for par, 8 for birdie, 16 for eagle
  • Another player in your pairing will track your score and you must declare your 4 double holes at the beginning of the round.

Do the bonus holes need to be declared before the round or just before playing the hole?

Another tough question is where is this biscuit coming from? I’m pretty sure Team Bo’s big W in the Biscuit Bash secured Bojangles as the official biscuit provider for all CLC events, Also, I’m going to feel really dumb if it was team Biscuitville, I just know it was my team.

Sorry been away on vacation, I’m in though if there is space

Just updated and great point. All 4 holes must declared at the beginning of the round. Easiest way is one person can track for everyone or just have one other person in your group keep track of yours.

Well dang it! I would guess they won’t answer tonight, but can call early in the morning.

Ok one AM update on the pairings

Tdaly and Jsteve15 are out. Dumpyflow89 and my buddy Evan are in.

So we still have 24 but a couple of pairings tweaks.

Group 1: swing_hard_and_hope, mintbucket, Grambom2, Evan J
Group 2: BCates, Zach B, Sleepy, Con_nc
Group 3: Deven75, bshep, Jeff_M, westerj12
Group 4: Hawk, DumpyFlow89, Are_you_double_D, rkris
Group 5: DoubleBogeyDave, Rdugolfer, Taffy, Jnglds
Group 6: grizzly224, Harper, shane_werran7, ColoniusFunk

An absolute honor to be associated with such a fine group of guis. Still can’t believe y’all let me win, I’m honored to be your champion. Was the Kenny Powers celebration too much? Who can really say :man_shrugging: Look forward to being the champion you all deserve in ‘24
