Im not 100% what the course looks like with all the rain and flooding, but We are playing come hell or high water, All water will be casual, so come prepared for getting wet, and you may just have to lay up from time to time. I will be there extra early to make some executive decisions on layout and what not... And KYLE will be there to serve up some tasty Sausage Dogs for $4 or for $5 you get bag of chips and a soda. Also Kyle is going to be serving them throughout the first round, so when you make the turn you can grab a dog on your walk out! See you all there, and don’t forget 1st place is still worth 50 points regardless of who shows up, so come on out and prove you are a true BAD ACE Winter Golfer who doesn’t care about a bunch of extra water, after all your skin is waterproof ;)

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up... We have decided to play the Newberg Circuit in its original layout. This means all 15 holes at Champoeg, all 9 holes at Hoover, and all 12 holes at Ewing Young. There are 6 baskets pulled out of the ground at Champoeg, however we are going to bring 6 temp baskets and place them where the original baskets normally would be. There is no water hazards currently other than the creek that goes through Hoover, and the river alongside Ewing Young. It is supposed to be dry until Saturday, and knowing the Bad Ace tradition we will be fine. We will all play in groups of 4 at Champoeg and when our 15 holes are through you will turn in your scorecards and have 1 hour to be at Herbert Hoover. I will have scorecards shuffled and you will play in your new group at hoover, finish up and immediately head over to Ewing Young and complete your 21 hole scorecard with the same group. Your first three holes at Hoover will finish your scorecard from Champoeg. Shaun, Mike Parker and i all played the circuit Saturday and it was a blast. Shaun finished 13 under for 36 holes, Parker was 10 under for 36 holes and I was 8 under for 36 holes. Ewing young put both Parker and myself over par, but Shaun was 4 under and ran away with it. I can’t wait to dominate all of your faces!

After 1 event is in the books... Salem is running away with this thing! Chris Wilcox almost scored a perfect 100, but Stinky came through with a solid second round! The Handicap listed is what will be used on your first round at the next event, Carlton. I promise I am not sandbagging, as many of you know i throw with one finger, which is stupid, especially if you sprain that finger trying to throw a NUKE OS as hard as you can. So the rest of you... whats your excuse :nahnah: That was some brutal wind, but as always true to BAD ACE form, no rain!!! See you all at Carlton on the 26th, and if you would like the complete spreadsheets, I will happily email them to you, just send me a message and your email in case I dont have it. Stay tuned for more updates as they are available.

Okay so we have had some changes and additions. It is looking like we are definatley going to be growing this year, the growth is welcomed and I can't wait to give out Hundreds of Dollars in Cash! Not ... show more ›

Okay so we have had some changes and additions. It is looking like we are definatley going to be growing this year, the growth is welcomed and I can't wait to give out Hundreds of Dollars in Cash! Not to mention some very sick trophies including the travelling First Place trophy!

Format:
9 single day 2 round events, 18 holes a round in some cases 3 rounds of 12. Handicapped. You earn one point for every person you beat after handicaps are factored, including one point for each person who did not show up. Your best 5 day cumaltive scores are added up and at the end of 9 events the most points wins all cash payout. Historically paid to top 5, depending on # of participants may pay out past 5th place this year!!!

Handicap Formula = (Previous Handicap) + (Current round strokes minus par) + (Total strokes by all participants for current round divided by # of participants) all divided by 3.

Entry Fee: $25 per person ($20 to end of series Cash payout. $3.50 to bag tags. $1.50 to CTP's.) Must pay at Registration - No IOU's, Pay entire $25 at first event you come to.

Optional Entry Fees:
$2 ace pot ($1 per round)
$5 raw score entry winner of each day takes all (No handicap)

Bag Tags:
We are reinstating bag tags this year. There was little participation and many lost tags last time we did this and I am implementing some very strictly enforced rules this year to ensure Bag Tag participation. I personally am providing $50 to the bag tag in an effort to redirect the monies from the failed bag tag two years ago. At the end of the first event you will recieve your bag tags based on your play. If you do not bring your bag tag or forget to turn it in, it will be voided and you will start fresh. No excuses! Bag tags will pay out to the top 35%. The bag tags will be collected prior to the last event at registration and that will be the payout order. You must turn in your bag tag at every event and bag tag play outside of the series is encouraged. If you challenge someone outside of the series and they do not have their bag tag you will automatically earn thier bag tag and they will recieve the higher number. They are bag tags people! Put them on your bag and stop losing them. I will make them high quality and durable so use them!!!

Schedule: Registration @ 8:30 players meeting 9:30 Tee off at 10:00 AM SHARP! You can play a half day and earn points. Best 5 scores count out of 9 possible scores. (I repeat, you only need to maek 5 events) Mostly every other week but a couple back to back weeks around the holidays.
