983.0. "Mixed tourney, any interest...?" by MSEE::KELLEY (Custom club fitting/club repairs) Mon Jun 25 1990 16:16

    
    	Well, there have been all kinds of tournaments posted in this
    	notes file, but I don't think there has ever been a mixed
    	tourney...
    
    	I am posting this to see how much interest there would be in
    	a male/female (husband/wife, girlfriend/boyfriend, whatever)
    	tournament. The format would be two person best ball (net).
    	All players must have either a  league handicap or a USGA
    	handicap (if you have both, then we will use your USGA handicap),
    	limited by the max. allowed by the USGA for 18 holes.
    	At least one member of the team must be a DEC employee...
    
    	If you are interested in this please reply here or send me
    	mail... If there is enough interest more info will be posted
    	ASAP. BTW, this will be a mid-week tourney...
    
    	Regards
    	Gene

983.1Mix it up.USWAV1::COONEYJTue Jun 26 1990 11:139
    I would like to express interest in this type of tournament.  I would
    enjoy the opportunity to play a round of competitive golf with my wife
    as a partner.  One question?  I have a USGA handicap, However my wife
    does not.  Would it be possible to play as a team with my handicap? 
    
    Thanks,
    
    Jim
    
983.2League handicap or...?MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsTue Jun 26 1990 11:188
    
    Jim,
    
    Does your wife have a handicap from any league? OR has she had a
    handicap from any league or a USGA cap?
    
    Regards

983.3need a partner - let me know...MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsTue Jun 26 1990 12:149
    
    	If you have interest in playing in this tourney, but do not
    	have a partner, just let me know and I will try to put you
    	in touch with somebody else that is also looking for a partner.
    	One person has contacted me who is looking for a partner.
    	(a female looking for a male partner)
    
    	Regards
    	Gene
983.4even easier to enter...MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsTue Jun 26 1990 14:2610
    
    	I am going to make things even easier to partake in this event.
    	You don't have to have a handicap (cause I know everybody that
    	plays golf is totally honest) you can just let me know what your
    	average 18 hole round would be and I will give you a handicap.
    
    	So, get those names coming in...
    
    	Regards

    Gene,
    
    You can count the wife and I in, as long as I get to hit from the red
    tees too. Any idea of where, when etc. etc.......??

983.6Need to know how many...MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsTue Jun 26 1990 14:5810
    
    Joe,
    
    Glad to see you and your new wife are going to make it.
    
    I would love to have it at Bretwood, in Keene, NH. The date I would
    like to shoot for would be the week of July 23rd... I need to first
    get a count of how amny will be playing...
    
    Gene
983.7Great idea!TEAOFF::TUFTSTue Jun 26 1990 17:527
    I would be very interested if it isn't on my regular league
    day--Thursday.  I may have a partner depending on the time and date.
    Otherwise I would be interested in finding a partner---I have a DEC
    league 9 hole handicap of 13.  I think it is a great idea---is it a
    best ball, a Scotch foursome, scramble, or what?

983.10The 27th of July...MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsWed Jun 27 1990 08:3214
    
    RE: .7
    
    Sharon,
    
    It looks like the tentative date is July 27th (a Friday). The format
    as stated will be 2 person best ball (net) 18 holes. If everybody is
    willing to make the drive it will be at Bretwood in Keene, NH. 
    
    Assuming that July 27th is the date and Bretwood the site, please let
    me know by the end of the day this Friday who will definately make it.
    
    regards
    Gene

983.12New deadline...MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsThu Jun 28 1990 14:2410
    
    	When I talked to the person at Bretwood today, he informed me
    	that he didn't need a confirmed count on the number of players
    	untill the week before the 27th and since a lot of people are
    	on vacation this week and next, I am going to change the deadline
    	to get into the tourney to July 13th (or untill 20 teams sign
    	up)...

983.13NEVERMORE changes to WHYNOTSIOUXI::BREENFri Jun 29 1990 15:3115
    I know this will come as a surprise after note 950.9 but I and my wife
    are interested.  She has taken an interest in golf and we are planning
    a Ponomah Green excursion tomorrow - perhaps her score from that can be
    used to calculate her handicap.  She hasn't played for a few years but
    back when Thunderbird (moment of silence) was still around she posted
    some nice scores (I recall her chipping in for birdie one night (yes
    night, TBird was under the lights).
    
    Our only problem is 14 month old Phil who we rarely babysit for.  In
    fact if you get an overwhelming response we will bow out but otherwise
    I will plan for the 27th.  I will try to get my hcap back down to 15
    where it belongs from its current 18.
    
    Bill

    Gene, I'd be interested if you have another available partner for me.

    there are any women out there they want to play and don't have a
    partner, just let me know and I can put you in contact with guys
    that are looking for a partner...

983.16Any more interest...?MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsFri Jul 13 1990 12:3110
    
    We have 11 teams right now and there is room for more...
    
    What happened to all those avid women golfers, come on out, it
    will be a lot of fun, the course is in great shape, the weather
    is going to be beautiful (I've had the order in for a while ;-)),
    meet some more Decie golfers, have a few laughs...!
    
    Looking forward to a great day...
    Gene
983.17Need another team...MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsTue Jul 17 1990 08:598
    
    If any of you are undecided about playing, go for it...! It looks
    like we still have 11 teams at this time and can use at least one
    more team to even up the foursomes... So, if you are interested
    just drop me some mail at MSEE::KELLEY...
    
    Thanks
    Gene
983.18DirectionsTYGER::MCCRACKENThu Jul 19 1990 09:137
    Gene,
    
    Do you have the directions to this course?  Can you tell us anything
    about the course?
    
    Thank you,
    Linda
983.19one more try...MSEE::KELLEYCustom club fitting/club repairsThu Jul 19 1990 10:5611
    
    We had another team sign up, to make it a nice even 12 teams, but
    then we had a lst minute cancellation. So, we still need one more
    team to even up the foursomes. If you are initerested and have a
    partner, please let me know. We have a few guys that are interested
    in playing, but they need a female partner. Come on ladies, give it
    a shot...
    
    
    Thanks

983.21Better late than neverTRACTR::OSBORNEMon Aug 06 1990 10:317
    Gene, I'm just back from vacation which explains my lateness in
    thanking you for another great tournament.  I don't think my partner
    has stopped shaking yet from being so nervous but everyone was
    friendly and supportive to her so I'm sure that helped in her
    scoring.  Thanks again.
    
    Stuart & Izzy
