2013 AM Worlds in Emporia! - July 7-13, 2013

[cro]

I made it in, and room reserved!

[hberciunas]

I'm in! Sweet. Booking room today.

[jack]

I'm going.  I will be reserving a hotel soon.  I am going to probably only take in 2 more roomies and no snorers.

Takes me out....

[john theiss]

i would bring earplugs regardless of what snoring reports you get from potential roomies.  it is funny how folks develop serious snoring problems once they bunk in your room.  or you can consume a few adult beverages to drown out the log sawing.

Wow. Jay Cram's legacy lives on... As I was thumbing through the AM Worlds white sheet...

Emporia Municipal Golf Course: (9582 feet) ...
 The signature hole is Hole 18 measuring 745 feet which calls for a long tee shot with a risk-reward approach on whether to gun for the green. The putt is made difficult by the prevalent Kansas wind coming off the pond that lines the fairway.
For more information visit YouTube and search "The Wind Putt."

Every where I have been, when I tell them I'm from Kansas, they bring up that video.

Emails came out today! I just got my invite to Am Worlds... now I have to see if I can make it or not....

I wish they didn't include Municipal. It just did not feel like golfing. Max Distance drives with OS discs that would land wherever the wind decided to drop it. Maybe if it was shortened a good amount it would be better.

[hberciunas]

he! he! got my invite email . . . printing reg form and booking hotel now.

That's funny because I actually had a little to do with that design. I pushed for shorter Par 3s and better, sometimes longer, Par 4s. Unfortunately they took almost every Par 4 idea I had and NONE of my Par 3 ideas. So you got Long and Longer.
