Week 3 announcement
Hi, folks - we've fallen out of sync with the glow league schedule, so Week 3 is going to flip-flop with Week 4 and be at Davis again, so we can take advantage of the glow league teepad cleanups.
Taking feedback though: how was yesterday? I really like playing the reds AND the blues, but I had feedback from a few people, and my own legs, that yesterday was a SLOG. Even if we could get the Blues shoveled, maybe we should just play reds for the rest of the winter, given the 80-90 inches of snow that's already fallen so far?
Also, temporary results are posted from Week 2, but there's some weirdness with a few people duplicated, and I don't have the payout sheet on this computer, so I'll be posting actual payouts for Group A tomorrow.
Once that full 18 is in it'll be reds all winter : )
I’d vote reds until the fairways start melting down. 4 hour round is a bit much in the winter.
I will miss more leagues than I will make, so don't cater to me, but I like the variety of playing both red and blue. And if more people play blues, the trails will get tracked in better. On the flip side I do know some people ended up with a pretty long round yesterday.
4 hours is too much
Also, the amount of snow that just fell again...it's going to be tough to get the Blues done before Saturday, and it's going to be that much tougher to walk the fairways. I think it's Reds for the rest of the winter, folks. As sad as that makes me.
Don’t worry Boyd. I’ll still play blues with ya for casual rounds
Reds are all clear again, not sure I have the motivation to clear the blues after Saturday though...
I think it's not just the clearing, it's the slogging while playing the round, longer walks for spotters, the fairways being less trampled...maybe after we get a nice melt we can stand on top of the snow. I'm good with just Reds until that happens, though. The light is at the end of the tunnel!
I dunno, the hours and hours I've spent out there the past few weeks are definitely worthy of the term
The blue tees haven't gotten much play this winter because it took the few of us a good while to dig out from the triple storm back in December. Keeping the reds clear for leagues was challenging enough. I'd have played them more myself had things been different.
I enjoy the difficulty of blues. Vote to keep them included.
The reds took 6 hours to clear. I'm game to play blues if you want to get out there and clear them
