We have expanded to 80 players! We will be playing 18 followed by a final 9.

daylight would still have been an issue at 72.

There is a very small chance of frost (not likely), get everyone out on time for a change and this would be no problem. I rarely complain about how tournaments are run if ever, but this is some last minute whack ****. If you didn't get in, try again next year. Very disappointed in this decision.

Shaun Adkins   October 29, 2013 at 10:30am

youre crazy, there will be frost. quit crying.

Work outside everyday, low of 36=no frost.

Shaun Adkins   October 29, 2013 at 10:35am

if the low actually ends up being 36.

Jeff Bauman   October 29, 2013 at 10:36am

why are you allowing more that 72 now? I really see no reason for this. 72 players will take all day as it is especially with 2/3 of the field being am 2 or lower. Please reconsider.

Chris Leo   October 29, 2013 at 10:36am

I'm hopeful for no frost as well. This year with everyone paid that will greatly speed up the whole registration issue. So we can get out sooner, despite no frost.

This tourney fills every year. Why not just post up front that it's only 27 holes and 80 players?

Brandon Dub   October 29, 2013 at 11:11am

I really think this should be reconsidered... We were told two round of 18 and I won't lie, I am disappointed to only be playing 9 the second round. I agree with frost in the morning could cause a late start and we may have to deal with cutting it close to darkness. But won't we be in t ... more

It would be 40 people on each 9, still sucks

Tim Searles   October 29, 2013 at 11:29am

I personally would have rather it been 18 on both, short tees for all on the second, quick start in the morning instead of dickimg around like dub said and a shortened lunch. But I guess at this point playing is playing.

Chris Leo   October 29, 2013 at 11:38am

We moved it up to 80 and I agree everyone knows this fills and now playing two 18's, which we are doing, is going to happen. So with that being said I want everyone ready at 9:10 for the players meeting so we can get others ASAP. I don't want to be calling people in for 15 minutes to get i ... more

Brent Sickel   October 29, 2013 at 12:08pm

Thanks for the hard work Chris, lunch hour from first card is good. I will help call people in by 9:10 so you can work on the tourney stuff. Thanks

John Minicuci   October 29, 2013 at 12:28pm

The majority of the tourney stuff will be ready when we walk in the door. The board and CTPs will be set. Frost should not be an issue, Sunnybrook just told me the latest it has been is 9:15. With the expected weather low around 40 we should be good. Checking people in and getting them ready for the players meeting are two issues that are player dependent...

NIIIIICE, great work. So listen up you bums, get your ass there on time and pay attention so we can get it all in.

Shaun Adkins   October 29, 2013 at 2:06pm

shut up so i can pay attention.
