Boof Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I think ArmiyaRomanova is the man to ask - it's not a particularly active CC at the moment though it has been in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief, is this still an active thread - I haven't played in at least a couple of years, having hit a plateau in my game..... or something like that.

Boof Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 4 round tournament for JKB Country Club now available. 4 rounds of Bethpage Black. 8 under is your target to beat Brooks Koepka. Some conditions a tad breezy - all greens set to championship pace, though. Have fun ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFS Boof, could you not have made it St Andrews on a calm day with normal greens to break us back in gently? 25 over oar to beat but no hitting fairways is allowed.

A few birdies and a lot of bogeys! and doubles, maybe a triple among 'em. I decided the bunkers were safer than the untested uneven lies - at least the rest are all even lies. And, I think, benign conditions for round 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've probably missed the first round - I only set a 24 hour time limit as the last time I did a tournament around a major I mistakenly left it a week between rounds and folk couldn't be ersed to wait that long. Get some practice in and we can get another set up when this one's done. Or set up your own. Graygo's suggestion about low wind etc at a more straightforward course has much merit - Bethpage Black is a right *******!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
