After Day 1, here is where we stand:
Team Vosh- 1 1/2
Team Crawford- 1/2

With weather canceling the Alternate Shot matches today, there will be only 4 points available total, meaning that it’s now 2 1/2 points to win The Mizuno Experience (And win one of us a new Mizuno Driver).

Team Crawford is in a bit of a hole after JMan & NVGolfer80 just stole a halve in match 2 today.
We have seen big comebacks before, will we see one again tomorrow?

Match Odds- 18 Hole Shamble (Caledonia)
Match 1: (Three Way)
Vosh & NVGolfer80 -170
Canadan & Stryker +220
Match is Halved +400

Team Vosh goes for the kill with a Low/Low pairing vs. a Low/Mid pairing from Team Crawford. Stryker is nursing an injury and that dramatically influenced the line.

However, if Stryker can pull a Willis Reed, he’s going to pop a lot in a match where pops are at a premium, and his partner is Cana-freaking-Dan. They are a dog, but my gut tells me that they are a live dog.

Match 2: (Three Way)
Crawford & Desmond -130
JMan & Jaw2000 +155
Match is Halved +350

This match has the makings of a super close one that could come down to the finishing holes, and those last 4 holes at Caledonia are made for match play. By all accounts, Crawford played phenomenal today and was great off the tee. At Caledonia, the tee shot is a premium, as it is tighter than TB. Slight Edge to Team Crawford in this one.

Regardless of what happens, this has been an awesome follow, and I appreciate the participants taking us along for the ride.

Gosh if this was televised you can offer live bets during the commercials. Excellent insights 👍

Match 1

Give me 5 jelly doughnuts on the underdogs in match 1 as Stryker is going to cash in 3 or 4 of them pops for winning holes on a course where distance is not a premium.

Match 2

Give me 3 chocolate sprinkled doughnuts on the halve. Something about @Jman brings out the dramatic ties in everyone around him.

We are calling an audible. Talking to @Vosh68 this morning today’s rounds will be broken down into two 9 hole matches instead of one 18 hole match. This is due in part to losing our 3rd 9 yesterday.

Both 9s will be done as shamble and if it ends in a tie, we will head to the short game area for a unique alternate shot tie breaker.

Poor @JDax keeps getting thrown curveballs to his odds making.

Update post audible:


After Day 1, here is where we stand:
Team Vosh- 1 1/2
Team Crawford- 1/2

With the announcement that there will be 2 nine hole matches today, we are back to having 6 points available total, meaning that it’s now back to needing 3 1/2 points to win The Mizuno Experience (And win one of us a new Mizuno Driver).

Team Crawford is in a bit of a hole after JMan & NVGolfer80 just stole a halve in match 2 today.
We have seen big comebacks before, will we see one again tomorrow?

Match 1: (Three Way) First Nine
Vosh & NVGolfer80 -170
Canadan & Stryker +220
Match is Halved +400

Match 3: (Three Way) Second Nine
Vosh & NVGolfer80 -220
Canadan & Stryker +350
Match is Halved +600

Team Vosh goes for the kill with a Low/Low pairing vs. a Low/Mid pairing from Team Crawford. Stryker is nursing an injury and that dramatically influenced the line.

However, if Stryker can pull a Willis Reed, he’s going to pop a lot in a match where pops are at a premium, and his partner is Cana-freaking-Dan. They are a dog, but my gut tells me that they are a live dog.

The Second Nine is harder and you are going to pay an extra premium for the team with the lower combined Handicap.

Match 2: (Three Way) First Nine
Crawford & Desmond -130
JMan & Jaw2000 +155
Match is Halved +350

Match 4: (Three Way) Second Nine
Crawford & Desmond -130
JMan & Jaw2000 +155
Match is Halved +350

This match has the makings of a super close one that could come down to the finishing holes, and those last 4 holes at Caledonia are made for match play.

Team Vosh going low low is a tough matchup. Would be much tougher if alt shot than shamble. If @Canadan can find fairways today with @Stryker pops they could sneak out a point though. Being split into 2 9's actually helps here I think.

@Jman had a hot putter yesterday will it stay hot? Caledonia is a great course for match play can't wait to see how this shakes out.
 
Looks to be a bit of rain in the area but maybe clears out quickly. What time do they go off?

Good luck and have fun gents.
 
Morning Boyz......sounds like a fun day ahead....
 
any gratuitous breakfast pictures? Or are the folks going continental to stay fresh for the rounds? Can we get some sausage gravy here?!?!
 
Hot again today boys!!!
