Solomon Center Open

John Melton

Thank you sir, and we appreciate the feedback. We are planning to have all the Age protected divisions play in the mornings. The event has 3 rounds still planned, but it is an Unsanctioned Saturday night fun round.

Shawn Trapp

John, Saturday night is normally reserved for the band by the pool.

John Melton

Yes Sir. The Glow round is just for those that wish to participate and play. No extra cost to the players. Much like what occurred at Big Rip during the player party people were still playing Eagle's Nest during the player party for fun a casual rounds.

John Melton

That is the fee per player that the course charges to have an event at the course.

This tournament has filled up every year within minutes, maybe the unnecessary changes affect that?? Since you're doing Tee times, I don't understand why you would add holes and since you're doing 2 rounds I don't understand why you're stretching it out for two days. Like Rob said, it's just costing players more money and time to do something. It's your tournament of course and you can do what you like, but it's us players that make your tournament. Maybe you could have asked or done a poll about the changes beforehand and got feedback, which seems like normal SOP, when you're taking over a previous ran event.

Brandon the last 3 years has been 23 holes. These holes have been played numberous times. The additional holes are to Maximize player registration and to help get people off wait list. And the 2 rounds 2 days, last year was 3 round 2 days, nothing is changing when it comes to length of tournament, we are just trying to prevent back ups, player fatigue, and help friends and family have more time to spend together on this weekend.

Brandon LeBlanc

Having more holes actually prevents more people from playing. But I understand about friends and family time. Makes sense. Just stating my opinion, which I haven't done ever ????

Brandon LeBlanc

I don't know why it did all the question marks.

Noah Prima

Per added hole you can add 5 people to the player registration. Maximum number of player for 18 holes 90 (5 man cards) maximum number of players for 23 hole 115 (5 man cards)

Brandon LeBlanc

Yeah I knew that but I swore I read Tee times and not a shotgun , that's why I said that.

John Melton

Yes sir. We will be using tee times this year. This way players can visit and enjoy the beautiful Solomon Center Scenery. We are currently finalizing the Player Party details. More details to come.
