    "In a tierless Bracket tournament you will play from the teebox that is associated with your tier. In a tiered Bracket tournament all players will play from the same teebox."

    Is this bassackwards?

    I don't think so. In a tiered bracket tournament I think you only play others at your tier level.

    I fully agree that tierless brackets are completely unfair for any one but the top players. The way you are seated by entry into the bracket is arbitrary so it is very possible that you will be paired up with someone who is way beyond your level and you will have no chance, conversely some one else can be placed with someone below their level and they would have a decided advantage, even shooting the same score as the former. Most of the players entered into the brackets are Legends and above so if you are not there it is a waste of time and credits! The idea of the brackets is good, but they must be tiered to be competitive.
