Steady Ed Bonus

Which one player will play the most steady golf this weekend? We're looking for the player whose scores' (NOT their round ratings') standard deviation is the lowest. This player can be in ANY of the divisions, though we won't accept if they drop out and score any or all 999s. On the other hand, if any of y'all are playing this weekend, I wouldn't hold it against you if you guessed yourself, and bagged the first round to make sure it was repeatable for the later rounds. But on the other hand, this bonus is only worth the usual 4 points. We reserve the right to be generous with these bonus points if more than one selected player shoots STEADY throughout the tournament.

Donations

Speaking of generosity, if anybody would like to donate prizes to the winner's pool send a PM to Mocheez, Ballingerj44, or myself. Thanks!

And enjoy… :)

Just fyi they're playing a different course Sunday with different par if that matters for the consistency thing.

Well, shoot. Yeah, that probably matters. I always thought they played the same 18 holes in past years, though I like the inclusion of more of the holes. Thanks for letting me know.

Just checked on dgscene - 24 hole layout Friday and Saturday, and 18 hole layout Sunday.

Let's just go back to using round ratings. The player whose 3 round ratings' yield the lowest standard deviation will earn 4 points for their predictor. And we can still be generous, if it comes out really close.

Sorry ahead of time if this causes any confusion. :doh:

And get your picks in by Thursday night.
