Each Tour Tournament will consist of: (i) a weekly entry period (“Weekly Entry Period”) that will begin on the Monday before the Tour Tournament, as specified in the chart below (“Weekly Entry Period Start Date and Time”), and close one (1) hour prior to the start time/beginning tee time of the Tour Tournament (“Weekly Entry Period End Date and Time”).

Lets see who we get in this year, and we'll decide between everyone.

Bumping this, you guys said you were going to play this year, and it's TIME!!

The contest is now open and the first tourney is this weekend so get to it.  This format is pretty easy compared to what we've been doing at yahoo.

This week will be a learning experience. Scoring is different in this format,  birdies are worth so much, eagles, pars, runs of pars, etc etc.There is no bench to worry about. Scoring should be in real time ( that's what it says) so THAT should be much more interesting and fun compared to yahoo that sometimes took a whole day to display results.

I'm excited to get the season underway!

Still time for anyone else who wants to get in

Just read that Yahoo xled their game, so good thing we went Golf Channel this season. 

[Tank]

wow, talk about your good timing.

i liked the yahoo league and how easy it was to use it. i didn't always like the scoring system they used, though.

this new system looks good and i like that there are points outside of the top 3, plus bogey free and birdie streaks. should be fun to try something new.

[Homebrewer]

Anyone else checked into the game this afternoon? Cool! It follows right along and you can track everyone's score at the same time. So far I'm digging the new format.

[Homebrewer]

Watched Speith and Thomas for a while, gawd they both sucked today.

[Homebrewer]

WooHoo

Who's #1??

[Homebrewer]

Everyone is in contention going into the weekend. Pat Perez surprises no one here being T5 to start todays round, only 2 back. Don't know about you guys, but I'm enjoying all the features and stat breakdowns available on GC.

[Homebrewer]

Since there are 5 of us, how about a buy in of a $20 bill each? That's a C note to the winner.

If everyone agrees I'll be escrow and I'll post my mailing address on the game site.

[Tank]

sounds good to me.

[Homebrewer]

Week 1 winner! 34 weeks to go. I'm planning on going wire to wire.

LOL

Everyone had a pretty decent 1st week

with only 34 golfers in the field, it's a good way to start the year. 

january and february are pretty tough because of all the new guys playing, the studs who don't play, and the unpredictability of who's going to rise or fall.

the one thing we can all agree on (thank goodness): pat perez is a stud.

[Adam]

I'm not making this a financial thing but I'll be rooting for Tanker

It's a full field (138) with a cut this weekend on Oahu. Gonna be a lot tougher. With no bench for insurance, someone who has multiple guys miss the cut is screwed.

No Pat Perez either.
