The way we do it at Kensington is:
AM women shoot from the short tees and draw as an AM.
PRO women and AM1 women shoot from the longs and draw as an AM.
All Juniors (except Andrew) shoot from the shorts and draw as an AM.
There were 4 occasions where women cashed this year. Its the luck of the draw the same as it is with men. How many times has Mark E gotten an AM4 player or woman and won, or gotten an AM2 partner and not cashed. It is all part of the great cycle of league play. Jim said it best "on the pro side, there is a select group of people that usually cash, another group that occasionally cashes, and some that rarely/never cash". So we give a group of people we need for the sport to grow an opportunity to have a positive experience at the sport they love. Everyone has a chance to win something at leagues. If not cashing, an ace or win CTP. We play the game to win , yes. We also play for the experience and the rush it brings when you have a great shot. If we dont cash then we try to get better and the thing we do wrong. So we give a little kid of woman a chance to cash, but its how they come to love the sport. Trust me, I know.
