Hey @Shindig and @Warren Zevon you are right Yahoo starts in January, but the PGA Tour Fantasy starts today off their website. I started playing it mid-season last year and it is good. Any of the hard core TST fantasy golf guys should get a team in and I can start a league and we can do both.

You still have a short time to lock a roster for this week's tournament. If you don't, get in this week and let me know then I will invite any of the TST fantasy golf guys who are interested to a league myself and Ray's Creek (from our Yahoo league) have just started. 

PGA has 4 segments, you pick a line up of 4 with 2 on the bench, and you have 3 starts per player per segment, for a total of 12 starts for the year. Don't use starts by the end of the segment, you lose them; they don't carry over. Points structure, not totally sure, but is based on how a player plays in each round; points not as straight forward as Yahoo.

They also have a One and Done that is fun. 

We can still do Yahoo in January too.

So the PGA Fantasy golf uses a pretty elaborate scoring system; see below:

Throughout a tournament, PGA Tour Fantasy Golf uses five categories: score related, driving, approach, short game and penalties (-3 points for hitting into a water hazard and -5 points for going OB). In each of the categories other than penalties there are ways to both gain and lose points. For example, a player gets 5 points for hitting a 300-yard drive in the fairway, but loses 3 points for missing the fairway on a drive that travels less than 240 yards. As he should. Get that weak stuff out of here.

There is also a sixth category that awards a bonus at the end of an event based on how many FedEx Cup points your players earned that week. Hey, now you might actually care about the FedEx Cup race!

That really sucks.   It’s been a load of fun matching up against you guys the last few years.

There are a couple of other platforms out there. Has anyone ever played on the Golf Channel, PGA Tour or other fantasy golf site.
Hopefully in the next week or so, something will get set up that allows this to continue with a TST group.

See a few of my posts above...myself and Ray's Creek from the Yahoo League have been in the PGA Tour one since the start of the Fall. New segment opens up with the ToC in Hawaii. 

We started a league but it is just the two of us. Let me know if others are interested and I can open it up.

It has pretty elaborate scoring (again see above). You won't get points for the Fall segment, but can compete in the 3 other ones still to come.

I am not giving that profile up as I ended up 55th overall in the first segment.

I might have deleted it and told them to decide between themselves and to start one when they've come to a conclusion.

The Golf Channel league might be the way to go, as it hasn't started yet.

@gogolfing and @Undr Par will hopefully figure it out here shortly.

That one will be announced later this week.
