Gents,

A suggestion for the champs prizes that we do a cash thing.

Last year, I did alright with a few vouchers that added up to a touch over $125 or something like that. Those vouchers when cashed into the resort got me a bowl of chips, 2 beers, one of the cheaper shirts and 3 2nd hand balls from the Pro Shop.

Can we do cash this year so the winner can spend it on hookers and blow ?

It's not enough cash for that on the Goldie ... ;)

I was actually going to start a thread on this elsewhere, but since you've started one, I'll do it here.

I propose OZgolf Dollars that can be spent on the forum, particularly the Pro Shop.

Now that is a good idea - not sure of the logistics... but a damn good idea.

That's a great idea Andy.
Seeing as though your collecting the $$ should be easy for you to PayPal or deposit $$ for guys who win and want to buy something in the pro shop?
If they want vouchers at the champs, so be it?

Yes, OZgolf would hold the funds and pay it to the seller of the item when notified.

All well and good if there is anything suitable for you in the proshop.

AndyP
30th August 2013, 01:37 PM
True. I'm sure we could make accommodations, if that was the case. There wouldn't be a time limit on the credit either unlike a pro shop voucher.

So are we thinking no money to go towards pro shop vouchers? Only reason I ask is that only this week I mentioned something to Palm Meadows that we could be doing it. No issues but wanted to be clear with him in advance.

CASH is best, if you win champs why would you change anything in your bag

Cash sounds good - then we can do the oversized cheque thing at presentation...

Boys, here is a few tips... Watch from the 1:27minute mark. Essential if you have never been to the Goldie before.

If you pay straight cash as prizes, then the winner will be pressured to shout the bar and end up with less money than 2nd.

Then both 1st and 2nd should be pressured in.

Fair point - are there any national golf chains we can give vouchers to, so interstate winners can still use them if they win ?

Grunt

I think we all remember the non shout incident at a previous champs too. :(

goughy
11th September 2013, 07:30 PM
So we all agree before the event, that prize winners are not permitted to use winnings to shout at the bar.

timah!
11th September 2013, 07:36 PM
Just make up some blank massive winners 'cheques' and deposit it into their accounts a few days after?

Sounds reasonable. Or that they are not obliged to use them to shout...

I found the "compulsory" shout pretty unfair truth be told. It only seemed to affect the Saturday winner as everyone pissed off after the Sunday round so the same shout wasn't expected of the Sunday winner.

I like Ozgolf Vouchers...

or just PayPAL vouchers so even the non golf fraternity can be bought with them

AndyP
11th September 2013, 09:04 PM
PayPal vouchers isn't a bad idea. I don't like the idea of carrying a wad of cash to the event, so both of the above suit me.

This is a good idea I may be able to make something up

goughy

Fake winners cheques/vouchers and sort out it's transfer later. But right now I say we all agree that none of us will accept a 'shout at the bar' from any winner.

The bar shout thing was for the optional $10 in on the day, not really a champs prize thing, with an understanding of a shout for those that put the $10 in. Or so I thought.

That is how I thought it was too.

I don't know what the current prizes are from the prize money that has been paid (feel free to discuss this further), but OZgolf will give $300 separately to these.

The winner of the 10th Championships will receive 180 OZgolf dollars, the runner up will receive $90, and third will get $30.

OZgolf dollars can be used for:


Transactions in the Pro Shop forum area (money to be paid to the seller)
OZgolf Merchandise
Donation to an OZgolf chosen charity, such as, Beyond Blue or Toowoomba Hospital
Payments for Champs events. For example, it could be paid towards the upcoming Vic Champs.

After much talk and no action, I've decided to allocate the prize money like last year however we'll do so in cash instead of Palm Meadows vouchers. This will complement what AP has organised on behalf of the site.
