Bill,
i just posted what was passed on to me but if i had to guess why the change i would assume it is beacuse it is called "spectator day" which is a reward for the people who are attending the event.

Bingo Dave, that's what they are encouraging. Come spectate and you get the play the course the big boys play.

ChrisEads · Sep 24 2010, 02:20 PM

Caddy Book has been released.

Check Out Hole 14 and the change they made there.

And if you can't make it any other day, tough ^%$#. What a nice message to the fans and supporters.

I can buy a spectator ROC without attending on Saturday, can even buy USDGC shirts, DVDs, whatever else (just not the ice cream). Can't, however, make a donation to Habitat and play the course. Still no explanation why not, just speculation...

Thanks,Dean...

Hey Dean,

The targets have been moved. Regarding practice, you can see the schedule at http://www.usdgc.com/06/08/2010-event-schedule . Sunday afternoon, Monday, and Tuesday morning are the practice times.

Take care,
Harold

warwickdan · Sep 27 2010, 12:37 PM

Harold.....

Will the practice police abuse us competitiors if we sneak onto Holes 8 thru 16 on Tuesday afternoon? I hesitate to even ask because i suspect if you wanted to allow this you would have published it in the official Event Schedule. I see the other 9 holes are being used for the President's Cup. Some of us need as much practice time as we can get....

thanks!

Sharky · Sep 27 2010, 03:00 PM

Well, what is it?

ryangwillim · Sep 27 2010, 03:14 PM

So...

I have not heard anything about media coverage for the 2010 USDGC. I'm all the way on the west coast, and we don't always get timely info on what's happening, so it's possible that I've just missed it.

Is there going to be any live coverage this year? What about the Dots? I love the Dots!! I can watch them at work, etc.

Anyone have any info for me?

veganray · Sep 27 2010, 04:28 PM

No BUNCRs. SWEET!

Thank you, Nate. And THANK YOU MIKE NORRIS, whoever you are.

dixonjowers · Sep 27 2010, 11:02 PM

Just to make sure I'm reading it right, no bunc'rs at all??

I coulda sworn they were there when I first looked at the book at lunch time.

And the fantasy DGC thing is a fun idea. One problem...they left the current world champ emac off of the list.

There is a small team of folks responsible for the DOTS each year.

Every year we have done the DOTS with Kevin Smith, Chris MacLeod, and myself.

We have had help over the years from some of the following folks.

Jay Pontier
Max Crotts
Brad Allison
numerous cart drivers to shuttle us around so we can update the throws

Here is a small screen shot of our latest testing that we worked on.

Interesting.

Dana · Sep 28 2010, 11:14 AM

Interesting indeed, definitely toughens things up.

On a side note: Saturday qualifying just got a little easier, I have a funeral Friday and won't be able to make it down in time to play.

ryangwillim · Sep 28 2010, 01:07 PM

Mike,

What software platform do the DOTS work on? Is it Flash?

Thanks,
Ryan

USDGC · Sep 28 2010, 01:37 PM

Ryan,
At this point, we will be creating the dot images on an iPhone or iPad during the round. The user interface is done in html and php. Thanks to Mike Norris on the php!

No flash this year!

ryangwillim · Sep 28 2010, 01:38 PM

Cool beans, as long as I can watch it on Android I'm happy.

Thanks guys!
