But yes I’d like to switch from MA3 to MA2

Brett Berkey   September 6 at 9:46pm

You should be able to edit your registration

Brandon Hyatt   September 7 at 1:34am

Won’t let me because the registration closed.

Brett Berkey    September 6 at 12:37pm

The turnout for this is shocking.

Yeah I was shooting for 300 players. It will be better next year.

Dustin Lewis   September 6 at 11:06pm

Not surprised given the responses here

Ryan McCrary    September 5 at 8:41pm

I started painting the OB lines at the Met Center and I will finish tomorrow.

Thank you!

When will a caddy book be sent out and will there be lines drawn at Met center?

Definitive OB lines are critical at a course like Met Center where OB comes into play on most holes. Using drawn lines from past events will create a ton of ambiguity as most have faded and using mow lines is not any better. Gotta have solid OB marked especially for a B Tier. I’m considering signing up for this but I gotta know there will be well defined OB.

Ryan McCrary   September 5 at 4:52pm

I hear you. Got a busy schedule already but I'll get it done for y'all.

Justin Crawford   September 6 at 4:22pm

All OB lines have been freshly painted as of today!

Stephen Calcote    September 3 at 9:08pm

Are we set on playing Roy G first and Met Center second?

Ryan McCrary   September 4 at 11:35am

Yes, Roy G on Saturday and Met on Sunday

Is there any chance this could change to a 1-day 2 round or will it stay 2day event regardless of signups?

Ryan McCrary   September 3 at 5:16pm

I'm going to keep it as it is because I'm still hoping for more sign ups. Plus it may mess up the schedule for the players that are already in.

Yilsun “Yoshi” Chong   September 3 at 7:44pm

Gotcha. Thanks

Michael Sorrels    August 31 at 10:50pm

So what’s with the ace pot add in, I don’t understand it at all? It seems as though ace pot already comes out of the entry fee. It seems I would still have that 5-20 dollars regardless of hitting the ace if I didn’t do that.

You're right, it's intended to be fun, possibly add a little luck and make the ace pot just a little bigger.

Samuel Schutze    August 26 at 3:40pm

What Tees is MA 40 playing? I assume all longs, but I was going to play a practice round this weekend want to make sure.

Ryan McCrary   August 27 at 2:21pm

Typically all Ams with the exception of MA 1 play short tees. But I can arrange it so YOU can play longs if you want LMAO

Samuel Schutze   August 27 at 6:21pm

I just want a good practice round!! Short Tees it is. I have played Ams with a mix of both so just wondering. Thanks, Ryan! look forward to playing next weekend.

Samuel DiCarlo    August 23 at 7:22pm

If more people don’t sign up will this event still happen?

I have noted it for next year, thank you for your input

John Willis   September 1 at 4:43am

It’s tough with this being a 2 day event, and with approx. 30% of payout (for pros) going to charity/ fees.

Ryan McCrary   September 1 at 11:19am

It is a fundraiser and having $70 per Pro for Payout is still better than the other events paying the Pros and there is $750 added to their payout.
