  1. 1. Would you rather see…

    • Each match contested for a single point (match play)?
      1
    • Each match contested as a Nassau, with points available for the front, back, and total (all match play)?
      6


Recommended Posts

Hmm, sounds interesting.  I'll have to think about that.

Agree with everybody on the 6 singles matches though ... I want to go one on one against somebody.

Alright, it sounds interesting.  I'll vote for the Nassau style of scoring.

I wonder how many cans of sun tan spray and Gatorade I can fit in my bag?

Might have to shave that beard to keep cool.

Not gonna happen.  The beard is how I intimidate @Golfingdad . :tumble:

That would be counter-productive as it's the beard that makes him cool. :-P

An optional point could be added having every player contend for a point when they play holes 7 - 12  Player versus  "PAR"

Each player would receive a stroke on their handicap holes, through these holes. One point awarded if player beats PAR.

Adds a little more flavor to a Nassau....

That doesn't seem like it'll work very well in team play. Big fan of KISS.

I spoze I should buy one of those umbrella thingys one of these days.  I honestly don't have one.


I ended up voting for the Nassau style of play as well.  Hopefully it will add a bit to the excitement.

Big fan of KISS.

They were a really wild band and actually had a few good songs.

But I'm guessing KISS has something in the way of golf.

Ok, humor us today and tell us about KISS !!!!

Keep It Simple, Stupid. Not the band… ;-)

Nassau format passes! Thanks to all who voted.

    • Day 159: did a stack session.  
    • Day 84 - 2024-12-23 I hit balls for 20 minutes after lessons and after getting down a BodiTrak for resale. Hinge. Path was weirdly consistent today at 1.6° or so ± like 0.8° only.
    • Day 13: 12/23/2024 A lot more mirror work today. Using my same swing thought. Some slow motion, some full motion, some in between. Today I made sure I took every swing all the way to the finish. 
    • Day 234 (23 Dec 24) - Mystery Monday - what to do today….pretty straight up as I spent time with the 58 and a series of pitches (lower flighted all the way up to high fliers over the tulip tree).  Wrapped up the day going lower ball with the 9i and easy bump and runs.  Again as always the setup was key - case in point, got lazy and casually set up, feet straight and promptly hit a couple of nice heely shots hard right.  Knew it immediately, as next couple I went through the routine and flew the balls promptly too the target point.  Setup - setup - setup…
