Proposing 3 club + putter challenge. Logic:
-
You get a wooded club, an iron club, a wedge club, a putter.
-
You proposed four clubs so three might make you slightly uncomfortable

Would anyone be willing to give me a ride from Lincoln Park? My wife needs the car for the morning.
I don’t mind scooping you up on my way - but I know you’re in the speed golf round so there’s a possibility you finish wayyy ahead of me this week.

Thanks! I’m planning on sticking around until the championship match finished 9. Part of the idea behind playing speed golf is that we could get back out on the course to cheer on (heckle) the finalists.

Love it - I wanted to stick around too. I’ve got up to 10am blocked out on my calendar. Shoot me a DM and we can get sorted.
For speed golf… I am thinking we should still go out as a group as to not hold anyone up from teeing off. Based on speed and skill you can take off and advance to another hole by yourself if its safe to do so.
As of now I think its just @Ballgame @SammyS and I who are interested so we can tee off first. Then I think we should have the rest of the regs go out between the two next tee times with @Wheel and @TrajMahal in the final group. You all can figure out who goes off in the second and third group on the tee box.
Are there any regs that need subs this week?
Also don’t forget Will’s Northwoods that night around 7:30

I might arrive at 6:30pm to watch the US WC qualifier if anyone else would join.
Can’t make it to Will’s NW Thurs, heading out of town for a couple days.

Weather is looking rough! I’ll check back in tomorrow, but if its gonna be wet I will probably switch to the wood, iron, wedge, putter challenge so I don’t rip my Achilles out of my leg.
When’s the first tee time tomorrow? 630?
Sunrise is 6:54. So around 6:45 I’d guess.

60% chance of rain! I’d be a fool not to take this. Happy to sub if this is still available.

So 645, 3 clubs and putter? Or half set?
I was going say to speed things up 4 plus putter might be better. 1 wood. 3 irons or wedges. Putter.
I could also do half set.

I’m going 3 clubs and a putter and will try and do speed golf if it’s not raining but it looks like it will be a wet wine tomorrow. We will figure out groups when we get there. I’m going to get there and be ready to tee off at 6:45 rain or shine

Out of curiosity, how do you play speed golf if individuals have a decent difference in aerobic capacity? Yes, I said aerobic capacity … NERD
Do you just proceed at your own risk or stop the timer while you wait for someone to hit? If someone is putting and another person is waiting to hit an approach shot, do they also stop the timer?

Ideally you would all tee off separately but I think we were just gonna try and go as fast as we can as a group and if one drops he drops
The slow guys will provide some motivation for ya to keep moving

Wasn’t there a rule about strokes per minute? Like 1min = +1 stoke? Clock stoppage must be a necessity if that’s the case.
May pay off to play from behind if you’re a better golfer. Still have to hit greens in reg while running… Easier said than done since I can’t do that 100% relaxed.
Love it
