First of all I hope everyone enjoyed their Easter
My congratualions go out to all who have participated in this tournament. I consider each and everyone of you to be winners for seeing this thing thru. Now before we get to the results let me explain the final round.
I had 2 different ways that I wanted the set-up to be and had help in doing so if you read one of my previous posts. The main jist of the replies I received were to put them back as far as you can ( Gold Tees ) to make their approaches longer and with the starter ball tournament greens would be hard to stay on. This reason being that the short game is something to be desired around the greens in Uneven Lies. I could see where that would work except my response back was but they are used to putting on Tournament greens and Championship for that matter and even with Kiawahs crazy grid lines they shouldn't have trouble with the putting. I had already decided on the heavy winds so that was a given. It was the shot clock and green speeds is where I really wanted to make this final round the toughest of them all. I thought long and hard about having a 60 second shot clock which wasn't done in the 2 "Tough-it-Out" tournaments to make the shots harder to analyze and as far as the green speed I thought if I made it slow it would take you folks a few holes to get used to and that would be where the matches could be decided in the early holes. So I oppted for the set-up that you folks played with taking out the Gold tees which would have been way to much punishment and settled for the White ones. Enough of my rambling lets get to the facts.
