WJTS Trivia Contest
« on: April 05, 2024, 06:42:16 AM »
The Walter J. Travis Society invites you to participate in our Spring Trivia contest. Trivia contests are one of the usual perqs for members, but since the AWNA is in full swing, and the Masters is on the horizon, we decided to open this one up to the GCA faithful.

Have a go (no internet searched, just your wits) and see how you do. We'll announce the non-member winner (bragging rights only) next week, and we'll cross our fingers that you take interest in the society.

No one has earned a perfect score, but we have had a few 9/11. Keep in mind that, if you know your name, you begin at 1/1.

Thanks for playing our trivia, and thanks for visiting our society's web site. We also have a Facebook page and an Instagram feed, should you wish to learn more about the WJTS and Sir Walter's course designs.

I got 3 out of 11. What was worse was that I got my name wrong as I tried to use an alias. Do I get a special prize ?

I wrote my own name and was told it was wrong too ... I guess there's no correct answer?  ;D
I did better, but it wasn't an easy quiz.
With every golf development bubble, the end was unexpected and brutal....

I corrected that part. There is no way to make all names the correct choice. So far, we have a 9/10, which is really impressive.

I suspect that there was no way to make an easy WJT quiz.

After a few days, we have the following scores to report

Perfect 10/10 from Steve K (an executive of the society, but still a stunning achievement)

Near-Perfect 9/10 from Kevin M., Ben M., and Anonymous Mike

8/10 from four fellows, including one guy who took it twice and earned the same score each time.

We will leave the link open, and when we have a Summer Travis Trivia contest, we shall alert the Treehouse.
