Congrats Steve on reaching the semifinals.  Any other matches taking place in the near future?  If you don't intend to play, please let me or your opponent know so we can keep things somewhat on track.


I believe Josh was going to play David at Urbana this past Saturday, but we got rained out by Harvey remnants.

We have rescheduled and are currently planning on playing on the 17th, at Urbana Country Club (Ohio), assuming the weather cooperates.

Josh Bills and David Royer with marker Criss Tissinger played at Urbana Country Club.  We were greeted in the parking lot by  P.B. Dye.  P.B. Did the front 9 in the early 1990's.   His grandfather did the original 9 in 1922.   It was a very beautiful early Sunday September morning.  Going into18 Royer was one up.  Josh was able to square the match on 18 with par.  Massive crowds started to build realizing that Royer and Bills were headed to sudden death.  Royer was able to win 1 up on the first playoff hole.  Not sure who Royer plays next.  The size of the gallery may be slightly overstated.   Thanks to Josh for hosting a great morning round at Urbana Country Club.

Below is the updated bracket. Waiting to hear something from the Haylard/Siebert and Wright/Cavezza matches.  If you no longer are planning on playing let me know so future matches can get scheduled.....if I don't hear back by Friday I will assume these matches are not going to be completed.

Wish I could be proud of my bracket standing but they're all a result of forfeits.

If Mr. Stockert or Mr. Sternberg want to PM me I have some time in October and a spot in mind

I'll post some pictures of Urbana as soon as I can process them off my phone.


Urbana is a really interesting mix of old and new style architecture; clearly, as the 9's were built about 70 years apart. While some prefer a design consistency, I thought it worked well here. The P.B. Dye holes are nothing to sneeze at. One of the better short par 4's I've played at the 5th. One of the toughest par 3's you'll ever play at the 7th.


I also was amazed by the land. You drive for miles across flat farm land, then all the sudden find this undulating property that is the golf course. Josh had warned me the course was a tough walk, and he wasn't kidding; especially on the back 9, where you're going up and down hills most of the time. Looking to the land off-property on the front 9, and it's all flat again. The Dye's really did luck out on their choice of property. The 9th is clearly manufactured, but still a fun hole.


I do feel pretty badly about the 1st hole. Josh and I were both playing Titleist 2's; but I was playing a Pro-V1 and he a Pro-V1x. We both played the wrong ball and didn't realize it until the green. Josh was immediately one down. So much for my non-competing marker status. Despite that, it was a great morning for golf and a fantastic match to watch.

Below is the most recent bracket (I took some liberty with moving a few matches along).  Let me know if you feel I made an error with the matches I assumed will not be played.

Passalacqua defeats Sturges!


Tim was easily able to beat me yesterday.  Thank you Tim for setting up our match.  I also look forward to a rematch when your home course is finished!




It was also great getting to play with George at the beginning of the season.  And thank you Ken and Steve for letting me join your match!


What better reason to hop in the car to go play golf with like minded individuals! 


Thank you Mr. Reese!


I am just knocked out and looking forward to next years event!

Is anyone planning on completing their matches?  As of now we have Sternberg v Hillenbrand and Royer v Passalacqua with Green and Bielawa awaiting a winner.

"It's a tiny little ball that doesn't even move... how hard could it be?"  I will walk and carry 'til I can't... or look (really) stupid.
