What time are you estimating second round starts? Shotgun second round or tee times?
MIke Walsh
October 24, 2021 at 12:03am
tee time, I see you at 952 so estimated 2nd rd is 4 hours from that or earlier if possible. so 152 ull play with same group both rds.

Hey mike. Can you move me to open. Not enough masters now to make it worth playing in the rain. Thanks

Is the tee time in the score card accurate, or is there a different place to confirm start time?
Aaron Priebe October 21, 2021 at 5:33pm
This is my first tournament, and I'm in the novice group. Any pointers? I've generally read through the rule book already, but it's a lot to remember.

Just let your card know its your first one and they will probably be pretty cool about it. Don't forget your mini and practice regular courtesy. Most importantly remember to have fun with it.

Towel. Don’t forget a towel or two or three since it’s gonna rain all day. If you have questions feel free to ask me during our round. Falling putt rule and foot faults are the most common rules to remember and are helpful for your first tournament.
MIke Walsh October 21, 2021 at 2:31pm
I have a Nov 21 date reserved for 50 Acre. Weather is always a factor; we run so many events the odds are , some weather. Note to players >> bring extra clothes. minimize your bag, less is more. bring umbrella, 2 extra pairs of shoes etc.

Does this mean the tournament is on November 21, and not October 24? Sorry, totally new to all this if my question is stupid.

Just in case we cxl event , back up date would be nov 21. Weather
Kevin Coleman October 21, 2021 at 1:38pm
Hello, I noticed for Ma4 you have 21/20 players. Any chance you would allow 21/20 for Ma3? Thanks!
MIke Walsh
October 21, 2021 at 2:35pm
the ma4 with the jrs is uncle of one of players. we need an adult with jrs . thus the 21 players. there will be some drops for sure ,as soon as I get a drop request , I refund then will text the player who moved up.
Andrew Raboine October 21, 2021 at 2:34am

Just making sure. Can't find out how you play in tough conditions if you dont play. See you tomorrow!
MIke Walsh
October 23, 2021 at 11:50pm
odds are when you run 6-8 events in a year , the weather will catch up to you. lol
Brian Usher October 20, 2021 at 11:06pm
Hey Mike - Will you allow a 5 top for MA50? If so I’ll sign up post haste.
Colin Cunningham October 18, 2021 at 4:58pm
not sure if this will reach anyone but is anyone in the near north area that is able to drive me? i can compensate, i just don’t want to take red line all the way to 95th and a bus from there.
