Yes..unlike others we run multiple events EVERY week.
So you can play up to 30+ weekly comps. You can pick all or some. We
understand that not everyone has the time to dedicate themselves to
play in all, however, we do ask that the ones you do play you continue
to do so to complete the requirements of a particular comp (example: best 9 of 12 would require a minimum of 9 games in 12 weeks)
Golfseeker is a little different to what you normally see in non WGT
community run events. Why? We use a "official" PGA handicapping
software system to make sure everyone has an equal opportunity of
success. We provide tools for a one click scorecard saving process
without the need for re-sizing and direct upload to the GS forum. You
have access to complete hole by hole scoring analysis along with game by
game handicap adjustments ensuring that you are playing to your correct
ability.
We do not suffer from quitters, simply because they are penalized in
handicap should they occur. (effectively giving them a disadvantage in
future matches)
We have various communication channels used to arrange matches between players. Mainly using skype as the most efficient tool.
We offer players the chance to win REAL cash prizes along with other
comps that bring in WGT merchandise. ALL free to enter and play.
A word of warning.... We conduct a strict policy of "activity" and
you are expected to become an active member of both CC and GS events.
Skype is also a must have requirement. Failure to remain "active",
will result in removal from both CC and GS site activities. Over 800
applications have been requested in the past and many were unsuccessful.
Others have been removed through inactivity. So before you take the
plunge make sure you wish to remain active. You will need to have been a
WGT member for a minimum of 3 months and have a history of at least 20
ranked games.
All tiers (above hack) are welcome but are subject to the above conditions
FAQ
How do you get involved? Complete the application
How do I get a handicap? We will issue you with your starting Handicap
Can I play in selected comps? Yes, the only requirement is you remain active throughout the 'selected' comp/s
Do I need to leave my current CC ? Unfortunately yes, as WGT only allows one CC per player
Why can't I remain in my current CC and join GS ? We
offer REAL cash prizes and other WGT merchandise in some comps and it
is GS policy that only GS members can win any prizes offered.
Can I play other non WGT community run comps outside of GS? Of
course, you can play whatever you wish in other non GS events. All we
ask is that you complete what you set out in GS as well.
How are the handicaps worked out? Handicaps are
determined by your previous scoring history along with other formulas
applied to create an accurate assessment. Handicaps are subject to
adjustment on a game by game basis and are applied accordingly.
What about Disconnections? We have a complete and thorough instructional sheet for the event of disconnections
Do I need to save my scorecard in all comps? Scorecard
saving is now a breeze. We supply you with the necessary tools for a
one click operation. Scorecards are only required in specific comps and
are stated where needed. Video tuition and step by step guides will assist you along the way.
Are there ANY charges in GS ? NO.There are no
charges for competitions in golfseeker . Side betting between players is
not under the control of golfseeker and golfseeker accepts no
responsibility for players wagering against each other.
Am I expected to learn it all by myself ? No not at all. We have active members willing to assist all newcomers in the way golfseeker operates in comps.
Pre Season Newcomers League
You can get involved from day 1. The newcomers League allows you to find your feet on how golfseeker works. You will play against all newcomers for the forthcoming season in a single play mini league basis. You can also be accompanied by experienced GS members to assist you every step of the way. 3 matches a week for only 2 weeks (best 5 games count) will produce a mini league winner.
