It shouldn't be nearly as windy at worlds in July as it was last April. July and August typically have much calmer winds in Kansas than April.

I second that Tom.  You'll be wanting some wind in July, even though it'll feel like a furnace...lol 

I'm no meteorologist, but don't Spring / Fall winds have more umph than summer winds due to the temperature and the weight of the air.  Or am I just full of it?

I heard about tires at #12 and sent a note off about that, and on the fairway on #17, other trouble spots?

Those were the main ones - they were pretty significant

I actually liked Muni.  Had my best round out there, even on Sunday, the windiest.

Alright, I'd do it.  Rec needs to go from long to short.  Open from short to long.  If you put Rec on long last, we may never get done.

54 holes at 21,034 combined feet.

That would be like playing Blue Valley long twice in one day.

Only if they have a geriatric intermediate division with massage therapy on demand.

Definitely, taking all the rating talk aside, I had a nice fun round with my card on Monday.
We need more Am's to show up.

While I despise long rounds like anyone else, expecting 18 holes in less than 2 hours during a tournament is not realistic.

pin settings effect the ssa of each course

which in turn affect the ratings.

Thanks

In all seriousness, Dick, et al, am I wrong in thinking that length has an affect on ratings as well as Propagators?  Doesn't the SSA partially compute what a '1000' rated person would obtain, then compare that with the scores posted and the Propagators that participated?

Pin Placements have nothing to do with ratings.

Isn't the length of holes entered when reporting tournaments?
