Birdshot/DG ProShop present Texas Army Trail Training - June 16, 2012

[bmugwump]

Come on out to Texas Army Trail Training on Saturday, June 16th for the next tourney of our Tour 12 Series! We've been in training for over four years and we're ready for you....resistance is futile! Go to www.houstonbirdshot.com & follow the "read more" link....we're still working on the new website, but the old one will get you where you need to go. This is very likely going to fill so don't hang around waiting til the last minute....you might be disappointed! We're limiting this one to 72 players as well, so again.....get on the stick & report for duty bright & early!

Glad to see Mr. Wallen has decided to sign up for this one! Thanks Richard! Now to see if we can get Mr. Steck to join us. I'm still working on trying to talk Greybeard and Stimpy into joining us. Who else can talk into it?

I would move up & join you guys, Larry if I was able to make the tourney! But it's my youngest granddaughter's 1st birthday party and I can't/don't want to miss it! Listen up, peoples...we only have 20 players registered so far so it's time to get off your posterior region & sign up! Here's a scenario that might help you to decide....what if we weren't taking any sign-ups the morning of the tournament (remember those days?) and you didn't sign up ahead of time? Let's pretend for a moment that this is the case...let's pretend really hard (hint hint)...let's keep pretending so that it becomes almost real....that's right....you are going to your computer now....you are going to www.houstonbirdshot.com right now & signing up for Texas Army Trail Training....you are loving yourself as you do this....you are thinking to yourself, "Man, I'm a person of high intelligence who is making sure I get into this tournament!"....just keep thinking along those lines & everything will be great!

Thanks for the plug Billy!!! ha-ha!!!

Looks like all of those guys in Am GM ought to be up playing for some cash...they all have higher ratings than I do!

I've been nursing along my right shoulder injury by driving left-handed and throwing up-shots and putts right-handed. I'm hoping that I should be back to being able to drive right-handed by the time TAT rolls around. I don't want my rating to tank any further! I should be easy-pickin' for anyone playing GM this time around.

No one from Birdshot has contacted Chuck or Chris. We can leave the positions a surprise for the 16th or someone can make a decision and let me or Chris or Chuck know. I'm thinking 1 long, 2 short (ace run!), 3 long, 4 short, 16 long, and 17 short. I sure everyone has an opinion. I don't have any experience in deciding what is best for a C tier. Who else has an opinion?

First round all short. Second round all long.
That'll give you data as to what the min and max SSA of the course would be (assuming typical playing conditions... blah, blah, blah).

i agree with ERic. no surprises please .

I won't be able to attend unfortunately, but I can weigh in on the format. Typically when there are two tee placements we will play the longs one round & the shorts the other round. We usually will play longs in the morning & shorts in the afternoon....but it really doesn't matter which, I guess.
