This is the final weekend before the big B-tier tournament at Spring Valley.

I encourage everyone that is planning on playing in the Spring Valley Spectacular to come on out and log a practice round at the Commando Mini!

It ain't quite a tournament, but we've been averaging between 20-30 players per week lately, and your attendance is sure to push it to new record levels.

The cost is still just $10 - which includes your green fees for the day, a buck for Texas States, Ace Pot entry and a mulligan.

For those that might be wondering about the details....this is how it works: I take signups at just before 10:00 am. I will make out cards based on your division and I try to assign you to a card of folks in your division. I'll figure out starting hole assignments depending on how many cards we have - last weekend it was 8 cards so we run a shotgun start across about 6-7 different holes. I give everyone about 15 minutes to get to their starting holes before I signal 2 minute warning and then a start.

The ponds and wet areas back on the Finesse course will be strung for the tournament and Commando Mini players tomorrow will be playing with the strung OB as OB to simulate the tournament conditions.

Please plan on arriving just before 10:00 am.
