Really cool!

I hope to get some first time play at Addison Oaks on Saturday, the day before GVM. If others plan to play it on Sat. how do you think you can avoid interference with the women's tournament that day? Late afternoon is my target time.

Two rounds of 18 with 20-25 women I picture us being done at the latest 5 so later afternoon should be perfect, thanks for asking!!

Fred Vocino   July 25, 2014 at 10:17am

Got it...thanks!

Josh Cook    July 24, 2014 at 6:48am

Oh we now got it!

John Minicuci   July 23, 2014 at 10:49pm

we have run many events at Addison this size and all we can say is it is better to get in your car at the end ofvthe day in daylight than finishing the aeards in the dark. 22 holes allows us the best pportunity to wrap up the event with minimal daylight left.

Jeff Hollinger   July 24, 2014 at 12:13am

Ahh indeed. This is my first tourney at addy so I wasn't sure. Can. Not. Wait.

Joe Levell    July 23, 2014 at 3:05pm

Please put me in am granmaster (there was not an option when reg.) - but if there doesn't end up being more players I'd like to switch back to mm1 - hopefully that's ok

I moved you, thanks for registering.

Fred Vocino   July 23, 2014 at 11:34am

It looks like there will be at least 3 MG1 players. That may be enough for Chris but not enough for Joe. I can wait for Sunday am to see what card I'm on.

Nate Buban    July 23, 2014 at 2:08am

Only 31 spots left?!

For those traveling to either or both events this weekend at Addison Oaks:
Similar to the Metroparks vehicle annual pass, the Oakland County Parks offer their own pass as well. The Metroparks pass does not apply to Oakland County Parks. Those who do not live in the Oakland County, the fees are a little higher. Here is the info from their website on vehicle entry fees:

Ryan Koeppen   July 10, 2014 at 8:25pm

I still wish this event would be at the GVM course but Addison is always fantastic.

Dj Hunt    July 7, 2014 at 9:18pm

What's the reasoning for the cap of 88?

Permalink

Ryan Koeppen   July 7, 2014 at 11:26pm

I would assume cap would be 90 since that would allow 5 people on each card.

Chris Leo   July 8, 2014 at 5:47am

I think we are going to do away with ghost groups. And keep it as four somes, players seen to enjoy that better and it's less hassle sorting the cards.

John Minicuci   July 8, 2014 at 8:08am

We are only using 1 course so there is a cap that accommodates the change.

Jared Frost    July 7, 2014 at 8:34am

wasn't this a b tier?

Permalink
Ben Jackson   July 7, 2014 at 8:45am

pro c, am b. read the top

Jared Frost   July 7, 2014 at 9:44pm

Yeah, I see that. Last time I looked at this tourney, it said $500 added straight B tier.

John Minicuci   July 8, 2014 at 8:07am

We moved the Pros to a C Tier instead of a B Tier and moved the cash into bigger players packages for the AMs. We are also moving the event.

Josh "J. FRI." Frisinger    May 29, 2014 at 8:07am

Is your note of rating qualification for reference or requirement to play that division?

Permalink
Chris Leo   May 30, 2014 at 8:53pm

You can only play in the division(s) you qualify to, whether it be rating or age. If you have no rating then play what division you would like.
