I'll help, too!

I'll be scheduling a Tourney Team meeting at some point in the next 2 weeks to prep for the event.

Would people rather meet at the course & play/prep, or would people rather meet at my house & hang out/prep?

Would people rather meet during the week or on the weekend?

Count me in. I'll be out of town April 17-25 so if we could meet before then that would work out great.

I vote for meeting at the course.

I'm cool with the course also... weekday would be great (anytime after 530pm) but if it's like a Sunday afternoon then I'm good with that too.

If you can make it and want to help with the San Antonio Open meet at Pearsall at 5:30 PM on Thursday April 15th.

Holes 1 - 5 are mowed completely. These look as good as they've ever been.

Holes 6 - 10 are not mowed and are not playable. If you play them right now you are assured to lose some plastic. I've contacted the city to get the mowing crew back out there ASAP to finish the mowing job.

Holes 11 - 18 are mowed completely. These look as good as they've ever been. The fairways are perfectly mowed. The rough is not mowed and is VERY FIERCE. It makes these holes play much harder, especially holes 14, 15, 16, 17, & 18.

Yeah... I know. Lost my Z Challenger on 8 (off to the right) today! Freakin weeds are chest high...

Don't forget, only 4 days left to register for this event and be eligable for a sweet free players pack.

Not going to be able to make it Thursday, but I would still like to help in any capacity that is necessary.

Scott.. they changed my schedule around at work... I gotta work tonight so I won't be able to head out to Pearsall... sorry man. I'm still down for helping out with the Open though....

There is a 70% chance of rain tonight from 1:00 PM - 6:00 PM. If it is raining at 4:00 PM we'll move the meeting to Monday. Call me if you aren't sure. Don't want anybody heading all the way out to Pearsall and not being able to do anything :confused:.

Played the course (most of it) Sunday afternoon.
It is definitely not tournament-ready now.
Several ponds of water sit on the course in inconvenient locations.
1-4 are playable.
The right side of 5's fairway and the walk down to 6's tee are slick with mud and draining water.
6-9 are overgrown with weeds; lost a disc in the weeds above 6's basket and in the weeds right of 7's basket and in the weeds down the steep slope to the right of 8's basket. Skipped 9 entirely. 10 is marginally playable.
11 is surrounded by weeds but the bowl where the green sits is open.
12-13 and 18 are playable.
Didn't play 14-17 because I was running out of time.
It's going to be a while before the hillside between 5 and 6's fairways can be mowed.
I'll be out there Monday afternoon.

Corey Peschke is the Director of Scoring. He'll be working with Jayson Houston at the scorers table.

Rick Perez is the Director of Course Operations. He'll be leading the effort to setup the course, mark the OB, get water on the course, setup tee signs, etc. He'll be working with Ben Blount on this.

Jerry & Jeanie Lively will be running the Jerry's Cherries Challange after each round. $2 a throw or 3 for $5. Same CTP as last year, similar format to the CTP throw off at the Throwdown.

One Shot will be serving as the Executive Chef, no need to leave for lunch!

Orlando Pereida & Marcos Castillo are the Directors of Shananigans. They'll be coordinating after round games and activities including Kan Jam, Raffles, Ring of Fires, etc.

We are in need of a couple of spotters. If you are interested and can help please contact me.

Only 3 Intermediates?
Where you all at?

According to SAP&R Pearsall is "scheduled" to get mowed Saturday w/ post mowing cleanup scheduled for Monday. Course should be good to go for practice next week.

I'm pretty sure Jeff Gobin will be playing Intermediate....so that's 4....

I know Jeff and I are playing doubles on the 30th... Team Hammmer & Axe!!!!

what a couple of tools :p:D

YUP!! Tool Rocks....

I'll be going out to Pearsall to start marking the OB's on Thurs. 29th. I hope to have the whole back of the course marked out before Friday noon.... come doubles all the OB's will be marked and the 10 meter circles and signs should be ready to go on all the holes...

How many water coolers are coming out for the Tourny? This we I can get an idea on where to place them...

Also is there any people out there who can bring Ice and Water to refill the coolers during Half-Time? I will bring 4 bags of Ice and 5 gallons of water...

Had a thought... how about a water balloon fight during half time? If we get 10 people to bring 50 balloons each... That would be Sweet!!! It should be in the high 80's on Sat.

More tourney info to come but I wanted to get this out there ...

Great job Corey, Jerry, Ben, & RICK for working on the course. This was the best condition we've had a course with regards to markings yet. It really looked very professional. I didn't here one singal complaint or issue with the OB markings. In fact, several people commented on how good it look and how it created a better course with OB on 1, 4, 7, 16, & 18.

Helping out brings good karma!
2nd in Intermediate and 2nd in the CTP for the Ace Pot money!

Thanks goes to Scott for running a great series of tournaments.
