I'll have my decisions book with me and I've taken the RCGA level 2 rules course. I'm also helping with some of the OVGA tournaments this year so wouldn't mind helping out with the rules.

**Fallys0820** · 05-22-2007 10:11 PM

How would we make the decisions on rulings if each "volunteer" is not at hand for the ruling? Should we play one ball under one gathered ruling and one ball under a specific team's consensus?

I'm not a rules guy at all. Not meaning I break them

, but I just don't find myself in a lot of dumb positions to need one. Obviously play it where it lies, but the finer points of the rulings I'm daft.

I just don't want to cost the team any unnecessary hardship. So if anyone sees it's my turn to play, work it like the Killdeer (bird) and provide great enough distraction that TGN looks over so I can get my shot off

Based on my handicap, that means you should only be doing that about 82 times both days.

Strange birds there in Belleville...

**Big Johnny69** · 05-22-2007 10:13 PM

Guys, don't worry about the rules situation. It will all be handled with the rules and format sheet everyone will be getting once there.

**mpare** · 05-23-2007 06:15 AM

That's very generous of you. I look forward to meeting with you and seeing what goodies you bring with you. Maybe we'll have time to get a game in!

If you want something special PM me and I'll look if I have one to give you. of course this means both teams TGN and OG. Someones not going home with the trophy but at least you'll have really cool ball markers

**mpare** · 05-23-2007 06:19 AM

A word of advice. You may want to bring your rain gear. There is a chance of showers on Friday and on Sunday. There's nothing worse than feeling wet and cold when playing golf, especially when the adrenaline is pumping. Washing your grips before you hit the road will also help you in better holding on to the club when your lashing it down the fairway or onto the green! Go get 'em boys.

**ironmaster15213** · 05-23-2007 08:02 AM

I went to Dick's and bought a pair of rain gloves just incase it pours, I don't think anyone will confuse me with Tommy two gloves though. I hit the ball like one of the girls on big break but not like Tommy

**Big Johnny69** · 05-23-2007 08:07 AM

Meh, I wouldn't worry about the weather. I played on Sun in the rain, wind and numbing cold on the hands. The forecast for Belleville is calling for only 40% of rain and highs around 16 or so. Sounds like ideal golfing weather for me. Bring it on!!!!

**John** · 05-24-2007 01:22 PM

I don't know if it's been mentioned earlier in this thread but i'm wondering if we're playing from the Blues or the Golds?

**tehflakes** · 05-24-2007 01:43 PM

I heard blues

I like that decision.

**Big Johnny69** · 05-24-2007 03:34 PM

We'll be playing from the second back tee decks. I can't recall the colour.

**Fallys0820** · 05-24-2007 05:20 PM

Indio said he was packing tutu's for us in his bag so we can play from the "forward tees"...if we're not allowed to play from those tees, I'm going to research right now which route for discrimination we could claim

Cheers!

If I can't play from the forward tees, this might turn into contact golf

That is one way to ensure that you have a good chance to actually make some solid contact............

LOL - Nice.

You'll be just fine regardless of what tees you play from - if you need a little extra distance use the visualization technique that we were discussing last weekend

**MusicMan** · 05-24-2007 06:30 PM

pssst... what time is our tee off tomorrow????

**gbower** · 05-24-2007 06:48 PM

The info I have from Chris is that one is before 2:00 and one just after.

See you there

For all you OG boys heading for a Friday practice round, be aware that the forecast for today is calling for thunder storms this afternoon. Good luck and be safe.

Thanks... It looks like the forecast for thunder/lightning is right at 2pm. Our tee times are 1:56 and 2:05

Well, Frank (ironmaster) must be about 9 hours into his roadtrip and I am just packing up the truck to head out and pickup The Saint...

Thunder storms won't stop the OGers! Belleville beware.... we are on our way!

Ya but they said that we would have storms yesterday as well and it didnt even rain.... they always predict thunderstorms with heat like this.... they are usually wrong!

**Hacker** · 05-25-2007 10:39 AM

Drive safe boys!!

Chris, keep an eye on Bob, when he "Drives" he has a tendancy to lose things to the right.........
