Great job Jamie. You really made a great tournament. Especially with the circumstances you were in.

Thank you for sticking with it.

That means a lot to me, Chubby! Having you be a part of it made it even more special to me!

Did anyone happen to find a light blue swirly 2022 tour series Force yesterday? I forgot it in the OB grass left of the basket on hole 5 in the heat of the play-off.
It has no name or number, which is totally my fault… but if an honest soul found it and would like to give it back, I would be very happy!

Merry Christmas everybody! Thanks for a great tournament!

Sorry, Kenny, I haven't been able to go out there and look, but we did text several people about it to look for it. Even John, who helps run the course. Merry Christmas to you too.

I was out on the course picking up signs today, but I did not come across it. But there were MANY people out playing today.

Thanks for a great tournament, despite the weather and needed last minute changes to address flooding it was a wonderful event and your efforts are appreciated! Any idea what’s going on with ratings for MA1? Can’t get my hot round to show final rating numbers…thanks.

Thanks for the kind words and support, Logan. Yes, there remains a weird scoring issue - much like we had for the first round. I will be addressing it ASAP.

Jamie Tellez   December 25, 2023 at 3:17am

I got it fixed - emailed you. Thanks for your patience and kind words, Logan!

If someone drops out today, is it still possible to get in? I was on the waitlist.

Jamie Tellez   December 22, 2023 at 4:51pm

No, Jo Ellen, there will be no additions at this point. All refunds have been issued to those who were on the waitlist, and the groups are set. But I appreciate you asking.

It may not be too bad. The forecast is now suggesting that it will indeed rain tomorrow quite a bit, but it is expected to taper off by Saturday morning. We can hope!

My son will be in town, can I use him to be my caddy?

Caddy's should be allowed per the PDGA rules. They just have to follow the same etiquette and rulings that you do as a player and any infraction of these would default to you as the player for any disturbance to other players per the PDGA guidelines.

Jamie Tellez   December 21, 2023 at 2:23am

If he's over 13, he can be your Caddie, Richard! Just has to follow the same rules of etiquette and behavior.

Tim Aney    December 19, 2023 at 1:53am

is it to later to withdrew. I'm considering due to a knee issue?

Jamie Tellez   December 19, 2023 at 2:27am

Hello Tim, there are several people on the waitlist, so if your choose to withdraw, I can fill your spot and refund your entry fee minus processing fees.

Tim Aney   December 20, 2023 at 1:05am

thanks.back at you tomorrow.

Tim Aney   December 20, 2023 at 1:05am

thanks.back at you tomorrow.

Jamie Tellez    December 16, 2023 at 11:10pm

Baskets have been moved per layout, but 8 is currently in the middle position as the left sleeve needs to be cleaned before it can be moved. Thanks all for your patience.

Hey Jamie, I was wondering if I could get the ESP Zone for part of my players pack. Thanks.

PS: Thank you for putting this tournament together.

Jamie Tellez   December 8, 2023 at 10:59pm

I think that may be possible Chubby! :) Thanks!

Jamie Tellez    December 4, 2023 at 1:08am

There has been a (hopefully) final revision to the caddie book. Two changes: Basket for hole 8 has been moved to the rarely seen "left" position. Yardage remains about the same. Hole 12 basket will remain in the long position (under the willow tree), but all players will tee from the short Tee Pad. As a bonus, this will become a par 4, offering excellent birdie possibilities!

Jamie, I have to work on the 23rd now so I can't make the Tournament. Can you reimburse me please ????

Jamie Tellez   December 1, 2023 at 4:10pm

I have issued your refund, Joe. Sorry you can't make it!

John Scheinpflug    November 17, 2023 at 10:35pm

Jamie, OUTSTANDING JOB ON THE CADDY BOOK! It is very descriptive. I really hope this tourney fills up.

Jamie Tellez   November 17, 2023 at 10:57pm

Thanks, John, and excellent eyes catching my minor mistake. It has been revised.

Matthew Weum    November 7, 2023 at 4:55pm

Hi Jamie! Can you switch me from ma40 to ma2?

Jamie Tellez   November 7, 2023 at 5:41pm

Hi Matthew, Yes, I actually switched you last Sunday when you emailed me. I guess you just missed my response. You are indeed in the MA2 division now. :)
