This year an entry into the birdie challenge will automatically qualify you into both the gross and net divisions. In the past, the purse was donated to the food and beverage bill of our our winners playing the pros, but that is still TBD. Have no fear, we'll use your money for something productive.
The increase in the entry fee this year keeps the beer still flowing at the end of the year and a small pool of cash to pay out winners and skins (all TBD).
The event is played all season. Each time you turn a card in for a weekly event and/or turn a card in for just birdies, we'll capture your gross and net birdies. The goal is to get one birdie (or eagle or albatross) on all 18 holes. In the net division, our winners have historically birdied all 18 and had a few eagles. In the gross division, nobody has ever birdied all 18. Nobody has also recorded an albatross. Could this be the year?
For a birdie to be eligible you must have played from your Class-assigned tee box (ie championship - black tees,A & B flight - blue tees, etc.) or by age + hcp for whites tees. You also must play with another men's club member and have them attest the scorecard turned in.
