Winter Leagues / Down Under League 3/2/13 and season re-cap

« on: March 09, 2013, 09:00:13 AM »

14 golfers made it through a really beautiful DU. The course is actually friendlier because you don't get the crazy rolls and stuff. Today is the last league until next fall. We had 464 players (+ today) for the year for a payout of $3,680. Doesn't suck. Still no 1100 rated round (even with the inflated PDGA system).

$60/$35/$17 = $112  Ace $235

Winter Leagues / Down Under League 2/23/13

« on: March 02, 2013, 08:01:48 AM »

For all that inquired about playing last week, only 10 showed up to actually play in the snow. Wasn't that bad.  Took a little longer to trudge through it all, but whatev' Mike D'open and Danny Knox tore it up with a 42. No lost discs. Expect much of the same this week. Estoy consiguiendo cansado de la nieve....

General Banter / Tee Pads redux

« on: February 26, 2013, 08:22:58 AM »

Please, please, please take a shovel with you if you're playing today. The 9 tee pads I cleaned last Friday at Rosedale were clean and dry when we played Sunday. The ones that had been stomped down were still a mess. Makes a huge difference. Ummm, you'll need really long ribbon too.

Winter Leagues / Down Under League 2/16/13

« on: February 23, 2013, 09:46:50 AM »

26 people showed up to play what we thought would be a nice round with a little snow on the ground. Unfortunately the snow melted before we started. We NEVER get to play golf in the snow anymore (insert crying baby sounds). Remember (back-in-the-day) how much fun that was?? Cute little ribbons taped to discs and all. To the 2,351 texts I've received, YES we will play today. Why not? Ace fund is over $200. Photo opportunities abound... Traiga en la nieve y el frio!!!!

General Banter / Tee Pads after snow

« on: February 22, 2013, 10:52:03 PM »

Got 1-3, 10-14, 18 at Rosie. Ain't rocket surgery. Waaaay easier to do virgin tee-pads. 1 or 2 groups before shovel makes for heavy load. C'mon man! DU post tomorrow, plan on ribbons. Should be interesting....

If you get that awesome opportunity to play when the snow stops, bring a shovel and clear the tee pads (where ever). Then, build a huge snow(golfer)man!

Winter Leagues / Down Under League 2/9/13

« on: February 16, 2013, 09:17:09 AM »

We're averaging 26 players through 16 weeks of DU League and have eclipsed last years record total of 401. With a few more weeks left (last league is 3/10) we'll see if we can approach 500. Cool. Awesome snowfall last night sets up what should be a picturesque round today. Bonfire as usual. Course is setup medium length.

$100/$60/$40/$25/$15 = $240  Ace fund $185

Winter Leagues / Down Under League 1/26/13

« on: February 09, 2013, 09:33:08 AM »

32 players showed up to play in great conditions (Ice Bowl weekend) including PDGA champ Eric McCabe. The scores reflected the talent with 148 birdies recorded. Probably some kind of record for DU. With only a couple of more weeks of league, we have yet to card an 1100 rated round. At least half the course will be moved for today's round. Diversa disposicion para hoy!! (BTW, last week there were 19 players, but I don't have any data. I have added the $$ to our totals.)

This should cut the weight of the tourney bag in half at least..... down to 88lbs (40Kgs). Right???

Mike, will there be video of stuff like the clinics and events?

Winter Leagues / Down Under League 1/12/13

« on: January 26, 2013, 08:42:47 AM »

Short course = low scores. I wasn't here last week, but heard there were lots of really low scores. I'm thinking -17 (or better) for an 1100 rated round. We'll see. Expect more of the same today.  We meet at hole #9 (some folks are still going to #1) If you are going to be late, you can call/text me @913.220.7470 and we can get you in. We are on pace to exceed 500 players this year which will shatter last year's record 401 players. We have to be pushing H2Oworks as the biggest league in KC. Keep it up! Or down....

$100/$60/$40/$24=$224    Ace fund $131 going into last week, so $163 today.

I'm planning to run DU Dubs. I'm playing my Ice Bowl round Sunday. I've been out of town and will update things later this week, but as of now....DU Dubs is a go. Should be a good day for another bonfire.

Rosedale / Glowsdale tonight 6pm

« on: January 16, 2013, 01:35:07 PM »

Planning to play some glow tonight at Rosedale. Meet at 6pm by the tennis courts. Doubles or KC Cali (easy to learn, hard to master). Or, if DD shows up we can play league.
