reposted from my country club's website...
i don't know how much pull you have with the site admin guys, but i know you and i have discussed scramble format as well as best ball (foursomes or more obviously), also liked the greensome (modified alternate shot) format i saw on day one of the franklin templeton shootout, but that one is probably much harder to program into the site. i was also wondering if the observer option had ever been suggested/in-work etc. would be cool to be online and watch a match from your club or club v. club matches. again, not sure if you were on the inside track with the guys from the site.
another idea i had would be a club pro challenge for the free courses on the site. any player from the club could only be "the pro" from one course and would earn said title based on a tourney to start. subsequently, any player may challenge the pro from any course, but no more than one challenge per player to any one course per month (14 courses=14 different challenges, if one REALLY wanted to try to be the pro somewhere). no handicaps would be allowed (we're talking about being the pro after all, which should be a scratch). anyone else with any other ideas/suggestions for this idea would be welcomed.
on a side note, FANTASTIC job with the club this year…without your efforts this would just be another distraction for most of us. if i wasn't so preoccupied i would've gotten in on your last scene ireland tourney, as i'm hoping to get my hands on one of your calendars eventually.
