Reminder? - In other words, if someone chooses Joe Smith for their first choice - at any score - and you choose him for your second choice, you've wasted your choice.

Methinks very few of us read the details of the rules. This is getting hilarious. I realize I wasted my 3rd choice upon submission because it was not possible. My second choice has a chance but it wouldn't have been my pick if I actually read the rules more closely! Duh. Anyeay, it's a source of amusement how many others misunderstand the clear rules.

If I wanted to help out anyone that has yet to enter I would make a list of all the guys who will automatically go as wasted picks for the 2 and 3 slots, and then a list of all the scores that will become wasted picks for the rest.

Then I would point out that Tiger Woods is going to announce his withdrawal from the tournament as soon as Nike gives him the go-ahead.

Yeah I even include an example.

Wasting the third pick probably won't be a big deal. I'm pretty sure all the winners of the past 8 contests have come from first picks.

There are plenty of good 2nd picks available. I'd be looking at players ranked 40-70 on the world rankings list.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
