@ J per your question in regards to what the site said, We said everyone will play same tees. Per the conversation currently on page 6 of this board. Quote** Lawrence Leonardi essentialdiscs.com › September 7 at 10:08am
everyone will be playing the same layout. plan on shorts 1st round and longs 2nd unless time is not permitting of longs 2nd round, which I dont think will be an issue.

I do not remember putting on our morning paper which Robert my brother read from that open and adv will play them regardless. If he said it, then that is my mistake and we should have had open and adv play longs second round, but my intention was to have everyone play the same tees. If playing longs is really all the fuss is about then I am sorry you feel that you got shafted but seriously is that really worth continuing to complain? Constructive criticism is more then welcome. We haven't deleted any post, rather we have allowed some venting that other TDs would have just nixed. We hope to see you again at another event, and perhaps we will be better able to please you.

@Shawn, yeah u might have to catch up with me on the course to do that.
I'm glad you enjoyed yourself dude, why is it a problem to you that other people didn't?
Constructive criticism not welcome here!

I enjoyed myself, as well as having a chance to play a tourney at Cass. I'm done trying to knock some sense into you.

Didn't the tournament webpage (that isn't up anymore) even say am1 and open shorts first round long second round?
Honestly asking, not trying to be a smart ass. But I believe it did.

because they pay the most and take the longest. duh.

"Jacob Quiton    October 5, 2011 at 8:29pm

Dunno why am3s would pay specific attention to what open and am1s are playing anyways?

"Jacob Quiton    October 5, 2011 at 8:27pm

@Shawna in my post does it not say that I asked other people if they heard the same thing??? and that they ALL said YES???
I guess everybody BESIDES YOU heard wrong.
Our bad!

Shawn Boucke    October 5, 2011 at 2:42pm

@J Blunta.... you obviously heard wrong. I never heard anything like that.

Jamie Mosier    October 5, 2011 at 2:35pm

Gotta say it is pretty cool that u don't delete other peoples posts here

"Jacob Quiton    October 5, 2011 at 6:33am

Incorrect. In the players meeting the following was stated..."If all cards are turned in before 12:30 then EVERYBODY will be playing longs second round, but am1 and open are playing longs second round regardless".
That's what everybody that I asked heard, honestly.

Lawrence Leonardi    October 5, 2011 at 5:12am

At Players meeting we told people that IF ALL cards were in by 12:30 Pro and Am1 would be playing longs. Also told we would give at least 40 minutes for lunch. Fact last card didn't come in until after 12:40 thus we decided all would play shorts per what we said in players meeting. Also we gave minimum 50 minutes for lunch rather then the shortened 40 minutes we had said in the players meeting so if people were in a rush to get out the holes they might want to think about managing their ... more

I understand we are never going to make everyone happy, and yes we are human and make mistakes, but you are going to find problems with even the best run events, someone will always be able to point out something they didn't like.... Prices too high, payouts too small, didn't start on time, started too early, OMG what were they thinking with that temp hole, and the list goes on. If you have something constructive to say by all means post it on the open forum. If you want to complain, we are all adults here feel free to take us aside and address us as such, perhaps your voice will be heard and something done about it in the future.

You must have been at a different place. I was sitting, and listened to the short players meeting, that was actually later then the time told. THere is no reason why people should have been late. It was over an hour after the last card was turned in.

Jeff Griffiths    October 4, 2011 at 9:14pm

No complaints. Just the facts.
Force- Not my name, everybody's name on the card. Understanding must not be your strong point.
Shawn- There was no players meeting at lunch, I was sitting there stunned that there was not one.
Robert- Thanks man, but it doesn't matter.
Anyway, the rounds of golf was fun.

Jeff Griffiths ur name was the one on the ctp flag i found

"Jacob Quiton    October 4, 2011 at 8:41pm

Sam I can understand am2s and am3s not minding much. But am1 and open were told they definitely were playing longs and then they switched it u while everyone was on break. Then most people got back with like less than 5 minutes to tee, so you run to your hole and can't find anyone on your card because you are on the wrong teebox?
You don't need confusion 2 minute before your teeing off a tourney round and to pretty much say he'd rather put the am2s and am3s on longs is wrong, people know that am1s and pros take longer and a TD should know that for sure.

"Jacob Quiton    October 4, 2011 at 8:36pm

NOBODY was ANYWHERE near playing after the sunset. LMAO

samuel smith    October 4, 2011 at 7:35pm

Give them a break they seem new to running tourneys it never turns out quite as good as it should be just like a round of golf

I had to scratch my ass with my own hand and that's just not right. Someone behind me could have done it.

Brian Merry    October 4, 2011 at 4:59pm

I would never **** at someone for putting a lot of hard work in. but after waiting years for a tournament to be at hines and then have it be that much of a poorly run failure, its really disappointing. I wouldnt have played had I known there wouldnt be long tees. Tds always make up the cards and check them at the end. But that was to much workjust like telling cassuals to leave or actually playing a tournament like it should be played.
