The Rules:

- All qualifying entries must be received by April 10th, 2014 at Midnight eastern time zone (New York City).

...

Just a question, but shouldn't the entry closing time be before the start of the first round?  I believe April 10th is a Thursday and midnight Eastern time would be after the end of the first round thereby giving an advantage to any late entries.  Either way I'm already entered, but just thought I'd ask the question since I just now looked at the calender.

Midnight is the start of Thursday. No golfers will have teed off yet at midnight on Thursday, April 10.

11:59:59 is the last time on Wednesday (at least as measured in whole seconds). We are accepting entries "through" April 9th at 11:59:59pm EST.

Ah, okay, I've always considered midnight the end of the day and 12:00:01 am as the start of the new day.

Good thing I didn't have an appointment then, I'd have been a day late. Thanks for the clarification.

Jason Day -10

Charles Howell III -10

John Senden -10

Aye @mvmac ...doesn't look like CH3 is even going to make it to the Masters. Can I change my #2 pick? If so, I'm going with Bill Haas -7.

No. You can't change your pick. You did just DQ yourself though. :-(

    • 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.
    • 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.
