    Everything is fine, Shiner, I was just kidding!

    No earnest objections from my side to your set-up for the final round.

    This is Great in the final Puholino will be pleased, I wish i took a screen shot of him on the first hole saying " we can just relax and have fun we have no chance of winning this round"

    -7 after the first 9 I was wondering :)

    mnshiner:
    The team with the lowest score will be declared the winner in this bracket with the second lowest coming in second for the prizes in the bracket. Hope this answers your concern Corwyn. This still ends the tournament on Easter Sunday with all teams getting a chance to play at least twice.

    Thanks for the explanation Shiner. It all makes sense to me now!!!

    I never thought we'd be able to play that well and I would've lost my shirt if anyone was taking bets on the final pairing (both). But when I look at the screenshots, I don't see any of us with irons. I know Josh took mine on the 14th fairway (I switched from the 3w to the irons just for the occasion), so if anyone wants to see it, I'm sure he can post it here.

    @ Mutts : i'll have to discuss the side bet with my partner, but if he says no, I'll likely be your huckleberry myself and gift a sleeve of choice to each of you, if you win.

    Yes, I believe every word u say,about Hans.

    I think he was heavily involved in organising the Ryder Cup, not sure, but someone who is very giving of his time.

    Of course I was hoping to meet him in the final ( no disrespect to the Pussies here ) in a format that would have allowed all 4 players to play together.

    Omwards , upwards.

    The reason behind the format they way it is set-up is that an 18 hole match with 4 players would take at least 3 hours of playing time. Not all players have that amount of time for a round.

    muttsnutts69 here is a video of Hans playing the front 9 @ Oakmont with all starter gear, uneven lies.

    Thank you for your very kind words everybody, I am honestly touched by them.

    Cheers, Hans

    Right Shiner, here is the situation :-

    Jeff is away for the Easter weekend with his wife, should be back late on Sunday.

    I am organising an Easter Hunt  and will be busy until late Sunday.

    We possibly have a small slot vaailable Wednesday or Tursday to do 9 holes, and then hopefully finish it off on Sunday, which will still be early on PST.

    So I am asking you and our opponents if we can do this in 2 9 hole rounds, as it is highly improbable either of us will have time for a full 18.

    I started a thread in the Beta Forum about 

    Strengths and Weaknesses of Starter equipment

    discussing the characteristics of these clubs from our retrospective views. Please share your experiences of these Uneven Starter tournament(s).

    Thanks a lot,
