9 mins between groups! Is this because we're all 3m tall and hit the ball 300m with our sand wedges? ;-) Or is that to give us time to find a ball in the bunker?

Thanks nk for organising the draw. It's always good to have a hit with the other 3 in this group. Hopefully they feel the same about me.

BrisVegas

9 minutes is good spacing. My club runs 10 min gaps, even better.

With 6 minute gaps, there are just too many people on a golf course.

I had asked about it, and shavey thinks the only option would be a six hole shot gun... But that would take away from the social finish.

Maybe a split may work 70% off 10 and the others follow the comp off one.

Unless numbers grow alot I think we have the best option

Geezuz could you have paired me with anyone older. He'll keep forgetting what number B51 he was hitting and probably have to go to the toilet every 5 minutes. If he's got a towel hanging off his belt and a rubber thingo on the handle of his putter I'll give it away.
And I've just ordered a new hearing aid with an emergency mute button (in case the main one fails).

No its about socialising and having fun, and as far as I'm aware it's been decided blue/blue. If that's rubbery then everything else is, like groups for example.

I'm starting to think that people are forgetting what the whole idea of the OzGolf Champs was mean't to be.

As just has said earlier, it's more about the fun side of things .... meeting new OzGolfers and having a bit of fun more than anything.

Reading a bit of the Champs threads and it seems to me this whole thing is becoming a bit of a monster !!

Yep, that's us.


Its still a competition no matter which tees you play off. The true champ (DC) will make the necessary adjustments to his course management and adapt to the task at hand. Thats why he's so freaking good.

Sooooooooo ****en funny Richard.

Anyway it's supposed to fun, some of you are losing perspective.

I'm saying that the black tees are a bigger test. The Champ should win on merit, not because they can get away with more from forward tees.

sms316
10th October 2011, 09:03 AM
bigger or better ?
Both. I think the blues are more fun, but they also let you get away with more from the tee.

Which tees do the ladies switch to on Sunday? Or will their scores be adjusted with the men's respective change of ACR?

sms316
10th October 2011, 09:10 AM
Normally thats the opposite for me. I can't reach a lot of the bunkers off the tips and the blues actually pose more of a problem.
I only hit driver 4 or 5 times off the blues. Off the blacks it would be more like ten. Holes like 9 & 18 are totally different beasts.

Good point. Shazza's 28 points should be adjusted to 26.

markTHEblake
10th October 2011, 09:11 AM
I agree with SMS. The black tees are a better test and give the lower handicap golfers a bigger advantage, those who want blue tees are just saying so cos it benefits themselves.

kpac
10th October 2011, 09:24 AM
I can't see any reason not to play off the black tees on sunday tbh. Just because you play from the tips doesn't mean you can't have a good time does it? And if the idea is not to be "too serious" what's wrong with hitting from the black tees anyway??

Not sure it matters where you tee off from.. If 'everyone' had preference to play from the blues, then fair enough. Quite obviously that is not the case, and thus see no reason not to vary the tees to accommodate those in the group that prefer to play from the back.

The game can be enjoyable regardless of how long the course is, not sure why this decision constantly brings such fierce debate.
