2017 Green Mountain Championship

[brutalbrutus]

Looks like live coverage for rounds 2-4. Who ya got? I've gotten two in a row with McB at PFDO and Ricky at Vibram, so whoever I pick this week is sure to lose, lol...



...Nate Sexton

 

[brutalbrutus]

Any word on who is filming the first round and which card(s)?...

Live scoring is up for a few cards. McBeth tees off at 930.

Bradley Williams

McB and Barsby did a pretty good job of crushing the front 9 of Brewster...

 

[Mocheez]

Lizotte is due for a win.

 

[brutalbrutus]

Looks like I nice'd them. Combined -2 on the first five holes of the back9

 

[Shamis]

Wish i was in vermont right now. Those courses are so much fun, and stowe is over flowing with awesome beer.

Eric Oakley shoots an amazing round of 48, 12 under par, unofficially rated at 1068!!!

It's interesting when comparing Eric and McBeths round - they birdied opposite holes on the back 9 and missed birdies opposite of each other on the front. Course looks primed for someone to shoot a -15 or better this weekend.

How does Udisc calculate the throw-in distance? Do the players record that? Schusterick has throw-ins from 66, 76, 80, 76, and 82 feet.

Thats because his shoulder impingement doesn't bother him at that distance. Since he refused to take time off to rest it, he just stays outside of normal putting shoulder rotation distance now. His logic being he's a 1050 rated player from 65+ and a 950 rated player inside of that. Hence his playing golf right around 1000 this year.

What happened/is going on with Don Smith?

 

[brutalbrutus]

MJ...

MJ...

Nate Doss just tied him, they both have the new course record now. Doss had it before at -12 48. Cale and Oakley tied that today. Pretty awesome to see so many good scores in the top ~15 right now.

Talked to UDisc, they said there were two bad scorekeepers out there who are getting retrained if they volunteer again tomorrow. There were similar errors on quite a few other MPO and FPO players' scorecards too.

 

[Flick Maniac]

Perhaps a nicer way to put it to guarantee that volunteers show up in the future too would be to say that the instructions to the scorekeepers were not as clear as possible and that they would look into improving the instructions for tomorrow?

Not that I have any insight to how it went down but that "bad scorekeepers" bit really had a bad ring to it...

 

[New013]

Do they need to go to a safe space free of being told they were ****ty at keeping score?

 

[Flick Maniac]

Do you think people need to be publicly reprimanded by doing a voluntary job poorly likely out of not understanding the instructions and not out of malice?

I dont know about you but I have been taught for years that give praise publicly and criticism privately if you want to be at all successful in supervising anyone.

 

[lyleoross]

We tend to hire managers who are vocal and harsh, criticizing more than complementing because we think it's effective. It's not. Just like grandma told you, you get more flies with honey.

I really thought Nikko has something going after starting with 6 straight birds, but alas... it appears his noggin' got in the way of the rest of his round.
