Anybody know the final ace tally? Trying to count up my winnings.
I hit hole 15 at Hobson during the morning round on Saturday . . . the baskets for 15 & 11 are close to each other . . . NOStheBOSS: did somebody hit hole 11 in the afternoon? . . . or did you think mine was on 11 instead of 15?
Overall, I sucked up the weekend pretty good, but went home happy with my first tournament ace!! Woo-hoo!!
Friday round was when I witnessed 11's ace
discflinger knows him. Maybe somebody can dig 'flinger up.

Excuse my A-tier with pools noobishness.... but why do some of the players have AB or EF instead of AA BB EE FF? listed as their pool
11 & 15 at Hobson were both aced Saturday morning in Masters and hole 6 at Tech yesterday. I think there was one at Keriakas also but not sure.

The first letter represents the first portion of the event's pool. The second number represents the second.
A played with AB means they started in the A Pool and then moved to the B pool after the shuffle. AA simply means they stayed in the A Pool.

they switch players around in the pools? wouldn't that mean some guys get to play the same course twice?

No.
Players after so many rounds - say 3 (not sure what it was at this event) have their scores comparable because they all played the same three courses just in different orders. Then the sort all the boards and put the top 72 in A pool, next 72 in B, etc.
This ensures the leaders are in the same pool at the end.
Then after 5 rounds, scores are comparable again.
The worlds does it like this.

The second pool letter for Advanced, Intermediate and Rec just indicates whether they made the top or bottom half of the rankings after the cut to the Finals. Look closely and you'll see the second letter is the same down to around 80 places then changes to the next letter in all three of those divisions. I don't believe they do a shuffle at BG like MTL is mentioning above, just a re-sort into two groups with X number of the top players in the top group getting to play in the Finals.

Yea its just a bit confusing for a first timer. I see what they did now.
Well I guess I cant complain, anyway. I didn't have my A game and got a tie for 38th in rec. Wish I hadn't lost my goto driver last week, that may have been a little different. Hopefully i'll be good enough to cash in int next year.

He is a good kid too. I partnered with him at Ashland Ice Bowl. He is very impressive considering he has been playing less than a year.
Great tournament. HB ran a 700-player event smoother than some 50-player events I've been to. I'm disappointed in my finish after a good start...but hey I had a fantastic time and met some awesome people. I hope to be back.
Anybody else peeved about the round ratings at Phil Moore? I thought it was about 30 points lower than fair. I know CK won't like this...but I think the ratings have about a 15-20% "WTF" rate. I've gotten 2 in the last week that just make me scratch my head.

You're not allowed to WTF until you see the official ratings.

Fair enough sir. Does that go the same for leagues? Does the official come in after the season or after each week?
