Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but as a bonus to those staying at the Ramada this year, the night life at the bar is excellent! lol, at least it's a good show

Getting closer guys. By this time next Friday we will be halfway to Bowling Green. Starting to get our gear together and trying to figure out how the hell we are going to fit it all in one car ha! For real though, excited to be getting in a weeks worth of practice before the event as well as getting to participate in a few more of the events throughout the week. I definitely plan on playing in the HB Clark Challenge as well as the DD C-Tier at Hobson. I will probably end up doing one of the doubles if possible as well, just haven't decided which one.
We will be in the area on Friday night. We are camping the first couple of nights at Mammoth Cave NP then we are moving to the KOA in town. This week cannot possible go fast enough. The plan is to get out of work as early as possible Friday to hit the road. Depending on your courses Tuna I'm sure you will see us out there.
See you at the KOA Wednesday night!
Oh hell yeah. I'm so ready for this. There will be a few new folks camping with me this year. My new gf, and we are bringing a friends son with us, he is playing in Rec. There will also be a couple from Northern Ohio staying with us this year. Then there might be a couple of people coming in late wednesday night and just crashing with us until the morning so they didn't have to pay for a hotel an extra night to sleep for 6 hours.

I am looking forward to my first trip to Bowling Green next Wednesday. I have heard many great stories about the event over the years. Can't wait to see old friends like roadtripstuff and get to meet new ones like Dewgarita and Tuna. I will be playing in Grandmasters.
Take an evening and head over to the Mellow Mushroom for dinner. Had a riot at this joint, good tunes and pie. Nice selection of craft beers as well. Have a blast.

With this being my first BG Ams, Im curious how the schedule works. Is there a TD for each course? I know the players pack is the players meeting, but does that mean there is no meeting before your round? Do you just go to your hole at your scheduled time?

There is a "TD" at each course. This is the course sponsor who is also an official to make all calls at the course. Your program has all of the OBs, rules, etc for the courses. There will be no meetings prior to the rounds. Show up on time and be at your hole when the 2:00 warning goes off. I played in 2012 and had a guy show up 3 holes late to the first round, that pretty much ended his tournament before it started
So awesome that you are playing this year. It's a great tournament. I can't say enough about how hard it must be to run an event this large so smoothly. I can't wait to see what all of the changes have in store this year with the new final 9 location, player's party location, etc, but I'm sure it will be as great as always. I'm sure we will see each other there.

They will post a board at each course with tee assignments 30min(I think) before each round starts.

BrutalBrutus, did you end up in the G pool? Anyone else? I need to find a ride Saturday for my friends son that is coming down with us. He's 13 and he's a pretty decent kid. G pool anyone? Calling G pool players. Of course we would toss you some gas money for the day.

pretty decent kid isn't a great endorsement to get someone to drive him around all day, lol
