Thanks for the responses. Here is a link to a Google form if you want to participate in this round and are willing to keep up going forward. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1fbLZQko1vCXZpHPkuEDUxzLYxpe1E5NJ1y8zTQIw6-4/viewform?sid=33dbe4cf938368d4&token;=FA-XKD4BAAA.w7x4T75akkDDEbczgx6xAw.ABIeXyCIYo05abkjj70eNw Thanks, Jim

I made a comment to a friend that it would've been very interesting to have tracked public opinion on how many majors we expected Tiger to win over the years, from back when he first turned pro, to when he was dominating (I had him as high as 26 or 28 at one point), and how it has fluctuated since. Obviously we can't go back and do that, but we can start tracking it going forward. I'm proposing to start tracking this going forward, immediately after each major. Ideally, I'd like to have a) decent sample size and b) consistency in the sample over time. With that in mind, only respond to this thread if you are willing to be in it for the long haul. I'll create a Google form for future surveys. So...how many majors will Tiger win? Just give a number. No ranges or conditions. Feel free to PM me instead if you want. Lurkers can email me at canjimdunk@gmail.com . I am canvassing other sources as well in order to get some breadth in the sample.

I just got mine in the mail today. I think they look pretty sharp.

I teed off about 4:45 AM and played until about 8:55 PM. Sunrise is about 5:15 and sunset is about 8:25 around that time of year.

We added 11 raffle prizes yesterday and a couple more already today. How about: Aronimink, Cabot Links and a few other top 30 courses in the country. If you are a serious golfer, I can't think of any reason why you wouldn't get in on this. http://www.wegoblogger31.com/2011/06/still-time-to-get-in-on-ben-cox-raffle.html

Well, 108 holes was undershooting it a bit. We went 155. Here's the write-up. The Ben Cox 108 (Give or Take 47) There's still time to get in on the raffle, which will take place on July 9th.

Sunday's Denver Post had a story on Ben and the golf marathon. http://www.denverpost.com/golf/ci_18256994 .

Hey all, I'm Jim Colton, the guy behind the event. The marathon has really gained a lot of steam and I wanted to let you know of some of the impressive items added to the raffle portion of the event.

The drawings will take place on July 9th. 1. One foursome at Ballyneal, going to the person who most accurately guesses the amount of strokes over par it will take me to complete 108 holes (only one guess per number, so if your first guess is taken, you will be assigned the next closest number). 2. Another foursome at Ballyneal 3. A foursome of golf at Dismal River in Mullen, NE 4. A foursome of golf at The Kingsley Club in Kingsley, MI 5 & 6.
