SW Ohio (Dayton) Golf Outing 2019

[Bonvivant]

So I actually made it out to the course today for 9 holes (at Madden), and my game is still somewhat intact after 3.5 weeks off. The rib feels fine too, so I can't wait for Saturday. Lol at the Larry comment.

No luck today. Try again tomorrow.

Good luck. Let me know if it doesn't pan out and I will book us online.

Madden has an outing tomorrow morning. Shall we try Community?

Id play hills, dales, hawk, or eagle. Even make the trek to sugar isle if they have slots. Im pretty much game to play anywhere

The thought of playing the Hills makes me sick to my stomach, but do what you gotta do.

Obviously, I have a monetary interest in keeping it on City courses, but will show up if it is in reasonable distance.

Community has an outing too. I could get 10:45, but that would be a slooooow round following that. 

Will check Sh... Kittyhawk.

Hmm. The old e-mail suggests Duck's quota game is 10:15 on the Hills. Supposing everyone wanted to cough up $10 extra, we could play in that. 

You'd be right about that 10:45 time being slow. Duck is brutal and he would figure to be in the last group off.

Also the fact that is at Community strongly suggests a shut out at Kittyhawk.

Sounds ok to me. @Jeremie Boop? @Bonvivant?

[Bonvivant]

Same

We are setup to join the Big Quota Game. It’s a $10 buy in (donation in my case) in addition to the greens fee. Tee times start at 10:15, but I’ll be getting there by 9:30 at so.

What course is that at? Will it be a new one for me?

[Bonvivant]

Hills course at community @Jeremie Boop. Not sure what a big quota game is but it should be fun either way.

It’s at Community. I’m not sure if you’ve played there or not.

You are spotted so many points based on your handicap. Then you have to make it to 36 points to be “in the money”. You get 1 point for a bogey, 2 for par, 3 for birdie and 5 for an eagle. Those are gross, not net. It’s pretty fun. It’s “real golf” too (by the rules).

Oh cool. So what if I don't have an established handicap? Am I essentially going to be put in as scratch or something? Am I even allowed to play without a handicap? I'm not worried about the extra 10 or trying to get it back, just curious.

An estimated handicap will work. If you claim to be a 20 and shoot in the 70s, they will probably call BS. @mcanadiens has been called a sandbagger once or twice in this. 🤣
