I ran my first PDGA event last year. And overall I felt it was successful. I did have one big issue, as I think I set the record for penalty strokes assessed to players card. We have one temp hole we added that I marked as a par 5. Well this seemed to screw up every ones count. I posted on the scorecard Par 56 and even went over in the player meeting. First round comes in and first card was ok, next one was wrong, few more came in right, then a bunch of wrong. Out of my 67 players, I probably had 35 of them with incorrect scores. Which upset a lot of people when they see their scores posted online with the penalty strokes. So before I send players back out for round 2 I hold a quick td meeting and explain what everyone was doing and how to fix it. Well round 2 comes back and I still have 12 or so scores wrong.
So what can I do to help combat this. Just not put Par at the top let them just figure scores?
For those not understanding what they did
3,2,3,3,4,3,4,4,3,3,3,2,3,4,(par 5 hole)5,3,3,3=58
they would then add it up and go ok we are 4 over, par is 56 so its a 60
