Wutpa bubbsboy100. sandsaver01 How about a simple tourney divided up into two small tourneys between the top 12 ranked and the bottom 12 separately. If anyone does not want to play they could just say so, not required. This would give the captains a chance to look over the players and give the new guys a chance to meet everyone. Since it a simple stroke based thing, it should not be hard to set up. sandsaver01 Mike do you have an old simple worksheet like this? If not, would you or schmiff set one up? Les could play if he gets things sorted. I need to get back in and knock off the rust. Just a thought, so no big deal. You guys discuss and decide. I would just like to see get something going even though much is on me not being able to be here. Happy to knock something up but not entirely sure I understand what's being proposed - you mean a 1-week thing with randomly selected matches (within top 12 and bottom 12)? Or maybe we could do 1st vs 2nd, 3rd vs 4th, etc?

Whatever you say, Cap'n Wait, what? Wouldn't you rather? I feel you have natural leadership and decision-making qualities, whereas I have natural run-in-the-wrong direction and go-away-and-let-me-sleep qualities. Not sure how I project leadership qualities (unless hurling abuse at cats counts, but you're more than a match there) and my decision making would be entirely random, but I'll do it if no-one else wants the dubious honour. I guess it'll save time as I can enter the names myself... In which case: Team Blue is now: The Dukes of Hazards Team captain is: Me, apparently (subject to coup)

I'd be tempted if it was master swing. I'm not being elitist when I say that, it's just that I really struggle with my timing back on master after I've nipped off and played a round or two on pro, and with my ongoing struggles with consistency I need to concentrate on master for the time being. It weirdly doesn't feel that different to me... But I haven't got back and played a master round yet..... I've turned off all the gubbins but the aim marker moving about with loft and spin adjustment is actually helpful to remind me how much it moves (or not) for different clubs. It's quite a nice break from the ridiculous pressure I feel playing my TGC rounds!! I agree, I don't think the timing is different, just more forgiving.

No harm in just reporting scores on here for a bit of pre season banter. Billy you may probably be missing and Les looks doubtful hence 22 out of 24 playing. With no subs it would make a bit of a mockery straight away.

It would be nice to have Bill well again before we start the next season. It would also take the pressure off Les in getting his router problems sorted. Just my thoughts,but happy to go along with the majority of the community of Dirtbags.

No fancy stuff needed
Over 4 rounds.
The 6 A players The 6 B players The 6 C players The 6 D players
As listed on team roster.
No heads up , just simply 4 rounds and winner of each group is lowest score and they have bragging rights in their locker rooms. Of course the A locker room has golden taps and padded toilet seats whereas D section need to take a dump in the Azeleas.
I cant do sheets no more but if someone cant knock a one up then even better.
Just an idea

Knocked up a quick spreadsheet for a pre-season week and added it as a new tab called Pre-season. It's a simple leaderboard with a table that sums the totals (and averages, in case there are no-shows) for each team, and has the A-D divisions that bubbsboy100. mentioned so we can easily identify the winner of each of those. Happy to update the scores for the pre-season week if people are up for it. billybudd0623 sandsaver01 Wutpa jeseterr

Looks fine to me Paul . If go ahead from the management until Bill and Les are back in action. Just putting this on as the link on thread 1 does not work.

This weeks course I found a bit tough. Tempo was fine but a lot of "ohhh how did that miss" putts, but cut was really low so not only one
Evens -5 -4 -4.

To me it feels right to wait a week for lessangster and billybudd0623, but this still gives us a fun week of friendly competitive play in the interim.

I think our team name might be announced today. Lol

This weeks course I found a bit tough. Tempo was fine but a lot of "ohhh how did that miss" putts, but cut was really low so not only one Evens -5 -4 -4. I had one of my best weeks this week, so it's a bit of a shame for me that it wasn't a Dirtbags week. I've been trying really hard to get some consistency going, and I had that this week with scores of -8 in the first three rounds. I couldn't keep bogeys off the card but after that start I figured a good R4 might put me in the frame for a couple of promo marks. But R4 was a struggle, and I was still only -3 after 16 holes, which was disappointing. That disappointment turned bitter when I double-bogied the 17th, but immediately switched round to laughter when I dunked an alby on 18. That 18th hole was particularly good to me, as I totalled -8 for the four times I played it. But I played all that before the big crossplay update from midweek, and that seems to have disrupted my tempo again as I'm now hitting most shots slow, even when it feels like they are too fast. Is anyone else finding any difference post-update?

My 2 cents, for what all that's worth: I'm happy to go with whatever folks decide. Understandably would wish to have everyone to be definitely ready to go and if a week more is the way to do it for certain then that's fine with me. I'm in no hurry personally so if the season's pushed to start later by a week and we get whatever's being cooked up for next week, I'm in for it.

Is anyone else finding any difference post-update? Same here. Since the update (and just before that) seems like I hit way more slow side, when before I was slightly towards fast side most times. Really have to try hard to hit fast and takes an awful long while to finally start to see some true variety in tempo, even though my swing doesn't seem too far off. When I do hit slow it seems to make sense at least... everything else after that seems to be more of a toss up than before.
