Hey JB, question for ya
Will the pairings and matchups be done for this in advance of the event, or would it be a meet and greet night before thing?
First round pairings will be done in advance.
Second round will be done at Meet & Greet.
I like that combination!First round pairings will be done in advance.

Sounds good to me. So who decides who plays who? Does Mike announce pairing then I do or how does that work?
Definitely...
I kid I kid.
The first round will be blind drawing.
The second will be at meet and greet and will be one team calls a team, the other then calls a team. To be fair, because we need to setup live scoring, the two captains will meet me a bit before meet and greet to do this and then it will be announced when everybody arrives.
If you don't mind, can you elaborate on the blind drawing JB? It doesn't make any difference to me, I will play who I'm told to play, but I'm sure others have questions as well.
Do the pairings the captains make get drawn out of a hat? That's how I remember from past events.
I like the blind drawing aspect. Is the drawings of pairs or single players?
Definitely...

God that's awesome. No way to prep for your opponent other than just play your own game and be ready for anyone. Very jealous.

I mean are you ever really prepping your game against your opponents? For me I'm playing my game. It is match play and certain shots or way you play a hole will be dictated by what your opponent does.
I like how the pairings will be set.
I want to also thank those in this thread who are staying active. I know you all wanted to be named to your respective teams, but you staying in here and continued support of the event speaks volumes.
Thank you!
I think so in some ways. Obviously I play my own game, and it depends on how the match is going once it starts, how I'd play certain shots as well, but if I know I'm playing a scratch, I know I'm likely going to have to be a little more aggressive and make some birdies, whereas if I am playing maybe a higher handicapper I know fairways and greens and pars put a lot of pressure on them. Especially in a team event, if you are a team of high cappers and playing a team of low cappers, it can be intimidating, but need to remember you will likely get strokes, play your own game, realize that many times bogeys will be "good" scores etc. Just my opinion.
Michigan needs representation in here. Don't leave us more outnumbered! Your insight is valuable.Guess I should add I was more talking about mentally preparing/strategizing etc, which is definitely a part of prepping in my opinion. But I'm sure the Captains will help their teams with those thoughts/ideas.
Anyway, will give the floor back to the participants. Was more just popping in to say I thought the format/pairings idea was really cool.

I'll post when I get back home. I'm at Boulder with a digital level getting Ben the green readings he needs for my yardage book
