Comfy pairing.

I have zero plans to win this thing (other than the trophy is sweet) - I plan on enjoying myself. Just wanted to play with Seyfer, who helped plan this thing. And wanted Neil to hang with Scott, as they haven’t met yet and I think they’ll be thick as thieves. @MerchCzar’s going to have a few 3 and 4 car pileups trying to read the greens.

So what is the format scoring wise?

50% of handicap seems reasonable.

Aggregate scores on Saturday will be interesting, I’ve seen a guy’s soul leave his body in that format.

Aggregate score bloodbath on Saturday

@Tkotts no worries at all, it was a valid post! My handicap is at its lowest in a decade at the moment, too, so I’m not exactly primed.

Yeah, I got that part, but net/gross?

This description of two-person aggregate is accurate. Our member-member uses it on the last day, and it is a SLOG. Anything can happen.

I’m fully anticipating this to be a psychological examination type setup on Saturday.

Believe that was you…the 9 you posted on #15 really killed us in the aggregate round of the member/member

I’m absolutely leaving this weekend with a membership brochure, aren’t I?

I was talking about the 14 on #11, but yeah I don’t think my 9 did much to help us.

You’ll be a member by Sunday.

Ah gotcha. I don’t even remember. I think it’s net, or maybe one division of each? There’s also prizing for each format, too. Put a lot more planning into making sure it’s maximum meeting, mingling, boozing, and off-course fun - Connor and Dan in the shop will have the format/scoring dialed, and I know Jake has the course in tip-top shape. The golf will deliver!

@Tron Who is controlling course setup? I would very much like Saturday to be a 6 hour round and ejection seats getting set off all over the place.

You just focus on doing birdie flask pulls with me and everything will work itself out

I’m excited to watch @BaxterMSP navigate these greens. Watching him leave an 18-inch putt short at Sweetens was among the highlights of 2020.
