5th Annual Midwest Mashie (Oct. 4-5th) Canterbury GC! - The Aftermath

[George Freeman]

Bump

[Erik Mosley]

Hi all,

It looks like there are plenty of people signed up, but if there happens to be room for a newbie, I'm in!  I live in the area (Parma Heights), and would be thrilled to join either team.  I'm also certain my dad (Wayne) would volunteer to be a fill-in if someone had to back out last minute (I'd sign him up too, but I sadly haven't convinced him to join GCA).

Sounds like a great event - if I'm shut out this year, I'll definitely need to keep an eye out for next year.

[Adam Warren]

Damn.  Did you really have to do this the weekend before the Ky State Mid-Am? 

[George Freeman]

Erik - we'd love to have you.

Adam - Use the Mashie as a tune-up.  I can assure you that the level of competition combined with amount of pressure placed on the Mashie participants will make the Mid-Am feel like an evening round with the wife and kids 

[Jud_T]

Adam,

With all the strokes you'll be giving, we can ramp up the stakes and number of games to the point where the mid-am will seem like an afternoon at the pitch and putt by comparison...

[Adam Warren]

Haha.  I will give it some thought.

[Bill Faley]

George -

I have to withdraw my name from the list of interested parties for this year's Mashie. A scheduling issue has come up and I won't be able to make it to Ohio. Nonetheless, I'm confident Team West will still remain in possession of the trophy!

Hope to be back in for 2016.

Thanks

[Jud_T]

Just to get out in front of it-  Any insinuation that Faley's withdrawal has anything at all to do with the West team's gerrymandering, and the 68 Bill just posted at Kingsley, is utter nonsense and surely beneath the fine character of the East team who have always taken their annual drubbing in this august competition as consumate sportsmen.

Sorry to hear that Bill!

[George Freeman]

Monthly bump.  We should have a formal sign-up process soon.

[Josh Tarble]

I hate to bump the thread in this way...but unfortunately I will have to miss this year.  Extremely disappointed but thanks again for making the arrangements on what looks to be a fantastic course George.

[Bill McKinley]

Here is the entry form...  I posted it as an image.  Hopefully everyone can save it to their computer and print it out, then fill out and return to Canterbury to get registered for the event.  Thanks!  Bill

[George Freeman]

Bump for Bill's post above.

[Andrew Lewis]

George -

I regrettably no longer can attend.

Best, Andrew

[Dan Moore]

George,

I just received an invite to my niece's wedding that weekend in the Twin Cities so I need to withdraw.

It's becoming pretty clear that the West team's run is coming to an end.  Whispers of internal turmoil following their fourth title are proving prescient...accusations of sandbagging, rumors of rampant performance enhancing drug use at the '13 event, and now several early withdrawals by West team stalwarts.  One of last year's top performers is inexplicably sitting out this year and next. 

Hope to be back in for 2016.

Meanwhile, the East team is said to be building momentum approaching the Autumn matches. The as yet unnamed captain has employed the pod system that proved successful for Captain Azinger and the US team at the '08 Ryder Cup.  Insiders say the native NE Ohioans have taken particularly quickly to the system.  East team uniforms were unveiled at a recent team dinner held on Eastern LI, one of several events insiders say has galvanized the East side. 

So much can happen in the 38 days leading up to the annual matches, but numerous experts are now calling for an East team victory on home soil.

Submitted my entry form this afternoon. Looking forward to actually playing for the East team this year! By the time of the Mashie , the Cleveland Browns could be well on their way to another top 5 draft pick too!

[George Freeman]

Dropping like flies...

Bump for the sign-up sheet in Bill's post #87.  Please have your sign-up form submitted with deposit by Sept. 15th.

[Nigel Islam]

George, I'm going to have to withdraw my name from the roster. I hope you guys have a great time. Thanks for setting this up though.

[C. Sturges]

Just confirmed with Canterbury! 

Thank you both George and Bill for setting this up!

Looking forward to the east winning this year!

[Erik Mosley]

Just sent in my entry form - looking forward to meeting you guys!  I think I mentioned it before, but if we need anyone to help fill in or even out the teams, I have someone who would be interested.

Regardless, can't wait!  I'm assuming I'll be part of the East, although I'm West of the course by about 1/2 hour or so...

[Mike Treitler]

I Would almost always be down to play in these events when there are open spots but the Yom Kippur thing got me also.

I hope you all have a great event!   

Sounds like an amazing place to play.

[David Royer]

Sent in registration today.  Looking forward to the visit.  Thanks for setting up the event.

[Russ Arbuthnot]

Registration is in the mail. Looking forward to my first Mashie.

[Michael Marzec]

The check is in the mail! Looking forward to meeting everyone.
