Welcome to the Men's Night 2009 Season

2010....

Nov 7, 2009 | Posted by Greg Baetz

I am already starting to plan for 2010.  I would love to hear your feedback regarding the league this year.  What did you like? What didn't you like?  What would you like to see in 2010.

Remember, I am still looking for team captains/league committee members for next season.  Your jobs are minimal.  A few hours of your time over the whole year and basically promote the league to others.  There will also be a few "Perks" to assuming this role.

email me with your comments or suggestions for 2010 at gbaetz.burford@golfnorth.ca

Have a great off season!!!

 

Greg.

Gonna Be A Exciting Final Week!!!!

Sep 5, 2009 | Posted by Greg Baetz

Well gentlemen, where has the summer gone?  Friday September 11th is our final week for team play of the season and it looks like there is going to be a great finish in both team and individual competition. 

 In the team competition Team Sergio has been in a slump for the past few week with not so great turnouts and some weekly match losses allowing Team Tiger to creep up with 11 points of the team overall lead.  If you are on Team Sergio or Team Tiger make sure you show up for the final week as the particpation points will play a very important role in determining the winner next week.  Good luck to both teams!!!!!

In the individual competition it is nice to see my name back on the top of the leaderboard with $76 and very closely followed by Ray Trudel, Ken Mitchell, Chad Deblock & Lyndon Blaney to round out the top 5 and guaranteeing a prize off the table.  We have thousands of dollars in value on the table this year.  Please remember that if you are not in the top 5 still have a chance at winning a prize.  Everybody, including the top 5 winners will recieve a ballot for every week played during the league and after the top 5 select their prize you will be able to place your ballots as you see fit for the prize you want to have a chance to win. 

Everyone in the top 25 has a great chance in making it into the top 5.  But you can't improve if you don't show next week so please make an effort to participate.

Please note that if you are unable to make the finale day you will still have your ballots and you can either trust the Proshop Staff or please ask a friend to put them in for you and you can still have a chance to win.

Good Luck To Everyone In Contention!!!!!

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 12TH @ 9AM SHOTGUN IS OUR LEAGUE FINALE DAY!!!!
Scramble Format and Proshop is making the teams based on your Friday Night Handicap!!!!  Please call 519-449-5112 if your name is not on the sign up sheet and you are planning on attending!!!!  We need to know ASAP for organization purposes.  Meal & Prizes are to follow golf!!!!!  As requested at the opening meeting this will be a cash game!!!!  The cost is $20 CASH. 
(Please Bring Cash Only As CashBack In The Proshop Will NOT Be Available, However The ATM Is Always Available) $5/person will go into a team skins game and the other $15 will make up the payout.  Top 3 Teams get paid 1st-50%, 2nd, 35%, 3rd, 15%.  Since I've posted this multiple times with no comments I'm assuming this is ok with everyone!!!! 

Please note that 5 day members of Burford are exempt to Green Fee Charges however if you are a players card holder an $18 Green Fee Will be charged in addition to the $20.

Onto the Weekly Winners......

The team game was very close this week with only 12 strokes difference between first and last place.  Congratulation to Team Villegas for picking up the victory and $10 for each team member that played this week.  Team Camillo has been creeping up in the standing in the last few weeks and out of the deep dark basement.  Way to go guys!!!!

Skins....
Well, there were no skins awarded this week which makes a $140 carry over into next week.  The more players that come out the more the skins pot will be for next week.  Good Luck next week!!!!

Closest To The Pins....
The closest to the pins were very close to the holes this week.  #11 was about 4 feet and #13 was about 2 feet.  Congratulations Ron Martin (thanks for getting it inside Ken) for the CD hole and yours truly for the AB. 

50/50....
Much to the dismay of Mr. Deblock, Congratulations to Mr. Daryl Alonzo for picking up $70 in this weeks 50/50 draw. 

Well gentlemen, lets make our participation for the final Men's night our best yet. 

Hope to see you all on Friday!!!!!

Good shot Greg. How long did you practice before going out. It's a good thing Ron isn't on your team or I might be a little suspicious. You should at least buy the guy a beer. Enjoy your week of being on top. When you look in the dictionary under 'sandbagger', you used to see a picture of Bill Havens. They just changed it Greg Baetz. If you want to make the last week even more interesting, have all 3 par 3's as closest to the pin. You can have them all open to everyone or 1 AB, 1 CD and one open go all. Or maybe that's too much pressure for the top dog because you know how deadly accurate us senior folk can be.

Posted by: Greg Baetz | Sep 5, 2009 09:21 PM


Wow!!!! It only took 18 weeks for a little trash talk around here!!!! I think adding a open closest to the pin is a great idea, that way I can win that to. I will enjoy writing my name on the marker under yours since I'm always closer than you anyways!!!!, only this time it will be legitimate!!!! That extra $15 in my pocket is gonna feel great Ken!!! Can you do me a favour on Saturday Ken, I'll feel a little uncomfortable announcing I won the league and was thinking you could do it for me. Bring it on!!!!

Posted by: Ken Mitchell | Sep 6, 2009 08:02 PM


So let's get this clear Greg. You are challenging (picking on) a guy who is half your size, at least twice your age, with a 25 handicap and who has been golfing for less years than you were in diapers. Now I want to make this fair so maybe you should go from the red tees on Friday. Just don't forget to wear your skirt.

Posted by: Greg Baetz | Sep 6, 2009 09:02 PM


Now Ken, I think you have things mixed up. I think it's you who needs to play fromthe Red Tees....I do recall your wife beating you on the Back 9 last Friday!!! At least she wouldn't have been a useless bastard with her score!!!!

League Wrap Up Day

Sep 3, 2009 | Posted by Greg Baetz

Gentlemen,

The League wrap up day is to be held on SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 12TH WITH A 9AM SHOTGUN START With Dinner & Prizes To Follow Golf. 

The golf format will be a scramble and the teams will be made up by the proshop based on your Friday Night Handicap.  Pairing requests will be ignored.

 The meal portion has been taken care of $$$ wise.  The only cost for the day will be $20 which is for the golf game itself.  $5 will go towards a team skins game and the other $15 will be paid out to the top 3 teams in cash.  1st place 50%, 2nd Place 35%, 3rd place 15%.  We will also be doing a 50/50 draw which is optional.  If any volunteers would like to help administer to the 50/50 draw that would be great.

The sign up sheet will be at the Proshop counter this Friday.  Please make it a point to put your name on the list if you wish to attend.  If you are not available to make it this Friday but would like to have your name put on the list please email gbaetz.burford@golfnorth.ca

ANOTHER REMINDER ON HOW THE PRIZING IS GOING TO WORK THIS YEAR!!!!

End Of Year Prizes....
Me & Paul put a lot of thought into how we should give out the prizes this year.  We thought about going straight down the money list and doing it that way but how we thought how was it fair that somebody who showed up a minimal number of times got lucky and picked the right days to come out and win money.  So the prizes will be divied up as follows.

Winning Team:
Whichever team has the most amount of the end of the season obviously wins the league.  For winning the league $5 will be awarded for each week played.  So, if you played 10 times you get $50 if you played all 19 weeks you get $95.  Payouts will be in the form of Gift Cards.

The Top 5 & Ties On the money list will have first pick of the prize table.  If there is a tie the person who participated the most will get first pick.  For the remaining prizes each person in the league will recieve ONE ballot for every week that they played this season.  We will have boxes in front of each prize and you will be free to put all ballots into one box or spread them around.  You can win more than once.

 

See you tomorrow

Greg,
