OK guys, I am ready to see you all on May 20th.  As of now we have 21 golfers and 6 tee times.  We can accommodate 3 last minute additions if anyone is interested.  As it is I see 3 Foursomes and 3 Threesomes.  I'm not sure how that impacts Erik's pairings or any of the side games.  That will get worked out.  Below is the current list:

I'll make groupings (not pairings, @StuM! 😄) as we get close to the date.

DM me if you have any semi-strict preferences. I'll keep them in confidence. I know 16 or 17 of you don't want to play with me, and NOBODY wants to play with @ChetlovesMer, so… I'll do my best. Bwah ha ha ha. 😉

We’re still putting together a fund for four white belts for @ChetlovesMer’s group, right?

I'll play with anyone, no preferences here. 

Looking forward to it.

I would love to play with @ChetlovesMer as we both have the same quirky humor! But I will play with anyone.

Thanks to Stu for working on the details and getting plans setup for the Michigan conflagration (Ooops, for the Michigan cohort).  Looking forward to meeting you and golfing in whatever group is decided. 

Thanks to the several others who have put in the effort to make this a reality.

Thanks to Iacas for getting the great weather lined up. I really didn't know if he could do that, but at this point, I am greatly impressed :dance:

WOW, I had a hole like that a few years back.  Very frustrating.  Only solution is to drain the putt.  😜

Group me with some short hitters so we can all tee it forward. Some of those par 4 holes look fairly long for this septuagenarian.

I know not the topic so just this one post, but if I didn't misunderstand this  saw on TV at a crowded that this round was cancelled because of the this hole being unplayable.

Could work.

Actually, here, let's do this… for the Little Mountain round… It's a par 70 owing to five par threes and three par fives. The tees are:

  • Blue - 6623 (70.6/130)
  • White - 6119 (68.5/127)
  • Gold - 5554 (66.6/118)

Let's do this: I'll take a guess at the tees you want to play, and if I'm wrong… let me know.

  1. @StuM - White
  2. @iacas - Blue
  3. @ChetlovesMer - Blue
  4. @dennyjones - White
  5. @boogielicious - White
  6. @billchao - Blue
  7. @saevel25 - Blue
  8. @bkuehn1952 - White
  9. @Divot Master - White
  10. @vasaribm - Blue
  11. @David L Yskes - Blue
  12. @Jeremie Boop - Blue
  13. @GolfLug - Blue
  14. @rwolfe - White
  15. @BradSomrak - Blue
  16. @DrizZzY - Blue
  17. @jtroutman - Blue
  18. @Greenshirt100 - Blue
  19. @brockman21 - Blue
  20. @Old1964 - White
  21. @Dwalk2088 - Blue

Ideally, we could have one white player switch to blue so we have six whites and 15 blues. Or… two blues go to white.

Thoughts, anyone?

If we can have seven groups of threes, I'll make a good game of that.


@ChetlovesMer, are you blue or white? @vasaribm? @David L Yskes? Two of you might be the blue -> white that we need.

I don't think we'll have any white -> blue.

Looks good to me. If we can’t get a white to move back then I’ll move up. It doesn’t matter what set of tees I shoot a 20 from 😉

I'll volunteer as tribute. White or blue works for me.

How is 7 groups of 3 going to work with carts? I assume most will ride. I usually walk.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
