Golftown National Amateur Series

[DenisO]

No way, I legitimately put in all my scores, I'm definitely in the A flight, albeit barely!

[XTOUR]

I know you do..lol. You're an honest guy like me. My score Friday pushed me into the A to compete against you and all the other top dogs on here. I just hope my prayers are answered....don't let me finish last!

[OutOfTheRough]

I'll be fighting you for that spot !! lol...

[DenisO]

I've seen you both play and think you guys will both do just fine. Just try really hard to not lose any balls, and there will be others that will have disaster blowups, you know 7 off the tee and stuff

[OutOfTheRough]

5 iron off the tee ! lol.. except for the long holes over water. Those I have bail out room to the left !! I'm going to be there nice and early so i'm actually warmed up ! Something I haven't done the 2 times playing eagle creek.

Car to the 1st Tee hasn't been a great combination for a good round.

[DenisO]

I wonder how the practice area is going to work with so many people being there. The driving range/putting green is probably going to be packed?

Thats why I plan on showing up early ! At least I hope to ! I've never seen it so I'm not sure how big the range is. Can it hold 60 - 70 people at once ?

[DenisO]

Ummm, the driving range holds about 10-12

[OutOfTheRough]

Oh this will be interesting....

[quinner]

I haven't been playing all that well as of late either. Wednesday should be interesting.

As for the range I think they can set it up better to accommodate more players...but not much more.

I really like playing EC. Here's my prediction based on the way I'm playing lately,

Par, +1, Par, Par, +1, +1, Par, +1, Par = 40 front
Par, Par, -1, +1, +1, +1, Par, +1, Par = 39 back

Some of those par holes are birdable, and all holes are quadable, so we'll see.

You think you will birdie 12 but only par 7? What's the logic there? I find 7 easier than 12.

I usually fade the ball right which makes 12 easier than 7.

Still open for registration? Contemplating........... $150 is a tad pricey though.

Well, considering that playing EC as a guest costs $100, it's a pretty good deal for a tournament.

When you put it that way.... true dat lol.

I signed up... will be playing in the A flight.

[OutOfTheRough]

Welcome to the tour !! hehe.

Anyone interested in getting out for a practice round tomorrow evening? I know it's right before the event, but it's the only time I have to get a round in before Wednesday.

I would join you, but I think I need to spend a little time (tonight and tomorrow) at the range, trying to fix my darn driver.

What time are you looking at? And are we able to play sans member? I haven't played EC in about 3 years.....

[quinner]

I would be looking to get out around 5ish. You would have to call the clubhouse and see if they would let you out as normally you have to be with a member.

[quinner]

Sorry I will have to with draw my invitation as there is an event there tomorrow and the tee sheet is closed for the entire day. See you guys Wednesday!

No problem. To the range it is!

See everyone Wednesday. Good luck.

[NickyBoy]

I'm in there for Wednesday too. Couple good rounds have put me into the Championship flight...(Should have shanked a few into the bush haha) See all you OG'ers there!

[XTOUR]

What time is everyone getting there at? I live in Orleans so it takes 1hr ...so i'm hoping no later than 715am

[quinner]

I am hoping to get there around 7:30ish. Should give me enough time to wake up, warm up and get ready to play and not feel rushed.

[OutOfTheRough]

I'm planning on pulling into the parking lot at 7am. Maybe find breakfast somewhere along the way. I'll be leaving about same time as you scott. It takes me 40 mins with no traffic from walkley / 417

[Ruskie]

As early as possible. The range is going to be packed, so I'd rather get a spot there early.

[leafseh]

As of this morning, it looked like there were 76 players registered. The range and putting green will indeed be packed... but 19 foursomes shouldn't be too bad for pace of play.

[OutOfTheRough]

Starting holes & pairings are up on the site now ! Curious how do you get multiple groupings on the same tee box of a shotgun. I'm 12A.
