Hey Fantasy Golf friends. I just started a group called "the Sandtrap Club" on ESPN's fantasy golf game. I made a private group so just us Sandtrap members could be together. The password to join the group is "forum". (you can do a search for the group once you are in)
You will need to create a free account with ESPN then go to the Fantasy link, click on fantasy golf and it will walk you through the steps of creating a team name. I used my forum name, probably a good idea so we know who we all are.
This should be a lot of fun! Can't wait for the start of the golf season. Good luck to all!

This may be the fall-back group, but currently I think we were trying to get the "official" pgatour.com one to work. The "Salary Cap" game.

I've joined for now, though.

Great! Let me know when the PGA game is up and running. I'll join that one too.
I was wondering if there was an official game. I just joined and didn't know.
Thanks.

Great news. The 2007 PGA TOUR Fantasy Golf games have launched. You can sign up today. Check 'em out @ http://pgatour.fanball.com/

For 2007, we 2 games.

Salary Cap Cup is back for its 4th season. It's the simple, pick-5 cap game. It's a lot of fun and really easy to play.

League Championship is back for its second season. It's the ultimate fantasy challenge. This game really tests your knowledge of the pros. It includes customizable league style play where you draft and keep your players. There's head-to-head and rotisserie styles of play. So, you can create your own rules, and play your way. Like I said, this one is for the ultimate fantasy golf nut -- the rotisserie game is based on official TOUR stats in 10 key areas.

Best thing about both games -- they're fun and add a new level to following golf. Scoring is real-time with the live scoring from PGATOUR.com.

Take a look. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Cheers.

For those of you who haven't played ESPN Best Ball Challenge before, their game is a little different. You pick 4 golfers staying under a cap and you pick one guy to put on your bench. The guy on your bench does not count against your cap. It's a good idea to put guys like Tiger and Phil who don't play every week on your bench because you can freeze their salary by putting them on the bench that way you don't have to keep picking them up when they decide to play and paying top dollar for them. In this game when the players salary goes up you keep them for the price you paid for them until you drop them. If a players value decreases you can "rengotiate" his contract and get him at the lower value.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
