George:

Heard from Brian Slawnik again today, he is not coming after all.  So, we may both be one player short, which is no big deal ... our only problem will be if we don't have the same numbers and have to put someone's name "in the envelope".

The way I've played in Bandon the past two days, I should probably put my own name in there!

George,

Hopefully all the spots get filled with GCA folks.  Just keep in mind if you need some last minute subs I have some friends in the area that might be able to fill in last minute.

Rich- I think I can arrange an early morning round for 4-8 at a fun little private club down the road from Lost Dunes.  Chikaming CC is not the Warren course, but it is fun to play, and 10 minutes from Lost Dunes.  Let me know if anyone is interested.

Matt,

I sent you a PM, sounds like a plan! Thanks! Rich

Rich, Matt:
Are you guys planning to play early Saturday morning?  Does anyone else have plans to play Sat am?

Thanks George and Tom for all your work in pulling this together.   I was talking to a friend yesterday who is a superintendent in Chicago and Lost Dunes is his favorite course; he told me to expect a couple of 3-4 putts.

Its not really clear how the pairings have shaken out, so i was wondering if its possible to post the match-ups sometime before Saturday.  Thanks.

I didn't see any final word on golfing early Saturday near Lost Dunes.  If anyone is golfing then and there is an opening, please let me know.  Thanks!

Not sure what the exact plan is for Sunday morning's rounds (Alternate Shot?) and how those should be paired (by handicap?). Regarless, let me know if you want me to switch around the excel spreadsheet to create pairings for then as well.

Looking forward to it!
H.P.S.

Let's still plan on playing nine hole matches ... then at the tenth tee, West team 1 will play East team 2, followed by West 2 vs. East 1.  If we are still on an odd number of matches, the last match will have to be a rematch, unless one of the earlier groups demands a rematch and keeps on going.

Mr. Kennedy, please permit me to apologize in advance. What kind of beer do you like? I will bring some along for Saturday evening -- to make up for the afternoon of riding your back as my handicap is currently going in the wrong direction. . .

By my account then the back nine pairings would look like the following:

Best Ball                  
Back Nine      West Team      East Team   
   
Group 1   3:00pm   Andrew Calcutt & Bill Sietz   VS.  Brad Tufts & Carl Nichols
Group 2   3:10pm   Chris Flamion & Chuck Brown  VS.  Ari Techner & Bill Steele
Group 3   3:20pm   Dan Moore & Dave Schmidt  VS.  Jon Heise & Jonathan Becker
Group 4   3:30pm   Eric Terhorst & George Freeman  VS.  Jin Kim & John Kavanaugh
Group 5   3:40pm   Jeff Tang & Jon Winick    VS.  Matt Harrison & Matt O' Brien
Group 6   3:50pm   Jim Tang &   Kevin Cahoon  VS.  Ken Fry & Kris Bekcher
Group 7   4:00pm   Mark Smolens & Mike Kennedy  VS. Rich Hetzel & Andrew Lewis
Group 8   4:10pm   Pat Craig &   Rob Bice  VS.  Matt Schmidt & Patrick Boyd
Group 9   4:20pm   Steve Salmen & Sven Nilsen  VS.  Tim Nugent & Tom Doak


All I know is it doesn't matter who is playing Rob and I, because they're going down! :)  ;)

Just curious as to who's actually running the show for the Chicago squad.  Is George our captain, or has he abdicated the thrown to Pat?  In either case, just need to know who I'm looking to for inspiration when Tim and Tom are putting on the pressure.

George is the Captain. I just so happen to be the one with the excel spreadsheet and within earshot of George at work. :)

Ah, I get it, you're George's boss.

Neither Pat nor I are the Boss of anyone...unfortunately.  Someone has to be at the bottom of the totem poll.

I think we should reserve a couple of captain's picks for each team, that don't have to be first come-first served.  Up to you how you use them.  I will probably go off the World Ranking List.

Excellent.  Thank you. 

Here's hoping my partner's handicap stays below 0.3 until later that night.

Dave, I know, I played with you a few weeks ago.  The putts with the head cover on the driver were awesome.  I'd stick to that instead of the long putter.  Don't worry I'll carry the scorecard.
