Club Monthly/Points Chase

[jmonny]

OK here's the scenario...the final monthly in the 2007 Points Chase is coming up and there's still a bit of drama to unfold.

Top three in Pro is decided with trophies going to Champ Rore, Runner-up Root and 3rd place Moncropoli. There is a tie for the final spot in the Pro skins challenge. Beetle needs a 7th place finsh or better to gain points and Scuba Steve needs a 5th place or better. Whoa!

Top three in Amateur are currently Ash-149, Fig-143, Gabe-135. If Gabe finished 5th or better (I think) he is the champ. If he does not show, he retains 3rd place. Fig cannot catch Ash so a lot is riding on Gabe's Friday night activities. Russ is guaranteed the final spot in the Am skins challenge.

The skins challenge dates have not been set yet but the format will be match play with a dollar amount for each hole. Pros will be playing for at least $100 and Ams will be playing for $80 in merchandise. Thanks to the NHDGC for their contribution and congrats to all those that competed in the point chase and made it a great thing. Their will be a points chase in 2008.

Thanks for summarizing and posting this for us Monny.

Good luck to all!

thanks monny... great breakdown. Now if only Gabe forgets.

[jmonny]

thanks monny... great breakdown. Now if only Gabe forgets.

I just re-did the math and looks like Gabe needs a 3rd place to reach 153 pts and guarantee first. 152 is the most you can get Ash (with a win), so its no gimme for him. Shoot em up.

And you're sure there is no way I can catch Ashley?

[jmonny]

And you're sure there is no way I can catch Ashley?

sorry Fig...your lowest included month is 16 pts in march. If you won you would only gain 4 pts which is 2 less than Asley's total of 149 and he can't lose pts.

[ashley]

BUT.... fig you can help me rally the troop to get more than enough people playing so we can all beat gabe and you can finish 2nd to me. LOL

[RORE]

So what happened?

[Hagan097]

Way to claim that last cash RorStone! Great 2nd round DG!

[jmonny]

So what happened?

7 Pros:
Darrin 63-57=120 $27
Monty 60-63=123 $17
Rudy 64-63=127 $12
looks like Beetle nudges out Scuba for the 4th skins spot by 1pt

5 Ams:
Gabe 68-61=129 $22
Scooter 74-64=138 $13
Gabe wins pts chase, Ash 2nd, Fig 3rd, Russ gets 4th skins spot.

Rore I'll present your trophy at the skins, congrats!

congratulations to rore, gabe and the other trophy winners in the points chase!

[RORE]

Thanks guys.
And thanks Deacon...
No OB strokes all weekend, bogey free last round. It felt good to execute a game plan for once.

[bgwvdave]

Congrat's to all the winners this weekend at the castle!!

D'cun- Thanks buddy! that is the third time that i have thrown a 1000+ rated round and it did not fill all that great just steady golf. with the classic am coming out in me on sunday. man i got to work on my distance!!

Monty, when is the skins match? Dec. 22nd i think but i am not sure.

to all the ams out there holding vouchers from this years monthley's (gabe stone, maybe ash etc.) we will have the stoked up club discs present at the skins match for you to choose from so try to bring them.

[jmonny]

Haven't really discussed the skins date yet. Sat 22nd early morningish sounds good to me, get er done before dubs.

[Hagan097]

That would be good so that ppl playing dubs could (potentially) come early and be in the gallery.

Thanks for the clarity about this weekend Monny.

[26408]

Ashley will be out of town on the 22nd.

[jmonny]

TThe Pros could TTake the 22nd and you Ams could choose a different date so we can watch TToo.

[Jamruss]

Website has been updated. Congrats out to all the winners for the 2007 Points series.

[RORE]

Sounds good to me.

[Jamruss]

Fig and I were tossing around the idea of doing our skins this Sunday at 10-ish. I Just got off the phone with Gabe and he'll let me know asap.

[ashley]

I can MAKE that date and time. so I am good if you guys are... hopefully someone will come watch.... and bring some payout for us little armers.

[bgwvdave]

we will be there if this is when you want to do it. is Gabe in?

[Jamruss]

Still waiting on a call back from him. I called and left a message tonight. He didn't think it was going to be a problem but wanted to get back with me for sure.

[bgwvdave]

cool let me know what is up. i will get with monty and make sure you guys are hooked up!

[Hagan097]

Good luck to all the competitors! I will be unable to be in the gallery as I'll be at a family gathering in Fayetteville.

[jmonny]

I'll be there and will bring my dry erase board as a little tally sign. I'll think up a hole by hole dollar amount too.

[ashley]

wow... just like the big dogs...This is what makes this club and sport so much fun to be part of.... I never played much in Charlotte cause i felt out of place... and didnt know sooooo many people, but this is fun!

[26408]

Were glad to have you Ash, you've quickly become an important contributing member of the club, and we appreciate all you do!

[Jamruss]

Gabe's in! See you guys Sunday. Actually, I'll probably see most of you at dubs saturday if your not headed to the Moe.

[ashley]

sweet.... so the AM throwdown is set.... nothing like a little roller derby on sunday...so what time again... 10?

dont want to accidentally miss it. And isnt there a FEE?
we can just film the showdown and let everyone see how much of a bagger Gabe is.... oops.... he cant dispute that since he isnt on here....

see you Sunday!
