Hey everyone, hope all is going well, we are now less than 4 weeks away from the event.
A reminder if you know of anyone still contemplating signing up, in order to receive tournament T-Shirt as part of players package – they need to be signed up by the end of this week. And registration will be closing Sunday night August 25th – no exceptions – will not let anyone in after that date, unless you are on the list as a former open state champion.
Course updates:
We did get a couple of tee-pads moved to new positions this past weekend, and those holes are playing great (new shorter tee for 12, and new short right tee on 10). We also have several new ones to pour – that is taking place this coming Saturday, so by middle of next week the course will essentially be in state play shape (minus marked ob)
And further FYI: It is pretty dry out here as it is normally this time of year. We are getting rain now, and it is supposed to be cool and rainy this week, so hoping fire conditions improve. But if like several years we’ve had the event, if there is a fire ban on, may mean no campfires at the primitive and modern campsites – just want people to be aware that is a possibility.
Tournament updates:
I will have all the specific round layouts posted this weekend, but expect it similar to past years state championships, for the course to get progressively harder. Pro par will likely be R1=64, R2=67, R3=70.
Friday will also be the day of the concurrent flex start on the Rocky Butte course (birdie-fest version) running from 8:00 AM until 5:00 PM for those who want more golf. I will get that sanctioned and posted next week as well. It will be $20 per competitor, you can enter the day of, and will be open to non-state participants as well. Just need to show up with at least 3 players – check in and start your round.
Tournament updates:
And play wise – and still subject to change depending on final #’s in each division:
Friday: Shotgun start:
Morning Round - 9:00 AM tee for all divisions except MPO
Lunch served 11:00 – 2:00+ at Patterson Lake Tourney Central.
Afternoon Round- 2:00 PM tee time for MPO
Supper at the Veterans Pavillion at ~6:00 PM
Saturday: Shotgun start
Morning Round – 9:00 AM Tee time for MPO
Lunch served 11:00 – 2:00+ at Patterson Lake tourney central.
Afternoon Round – 2:00 PM tee time for all divisions except MPO.
Supper, putting games and acknowledgement dinner at the Veterans Pavillion at Memorial Park ~6:00 PM
Sunday: Tee Times:
8:00 AM – 1st group tee time approximately every 12-15 minutes: MA1, FA1, MA40, MP65, MP60, MP55, MP40, MPO.
For speed of play we will try our best to keep all cards to 3 per card, but of course, with #’s may end up having to have a few 4 per card groups or combining groups that don’t have 3 people in them.
