that's creepy man.
Love it!The trophies:
I will put a vote for this actually. I'm all for handicapping or playing best ball, but by the time were done with 36 holes, that's going to take awhile to put altogether, especially since the teams don't all play with each other throughout the day. So maybe treat it like a high school golf meet, just take the top 4 scores. Are we sure Sleuth can't make this for team Iowa????

EDIT: Those trophies are so money. I know the morgan cup trophy looks cool and all, but c'mon....these are GOLDEN COWS!!!
I'll just throw this out there, why not do a Best Ball style, where you just need one 18 hole scorecard for each team, and you take the best score from the 5 players at that hole. Kind of like the ESPN Best Ball Majors competition for fantasy golf.
I assume Nebraska is taking the 2 wildcards???
We could always do the best ball for both rounds total or one from each round.

I like that idea.
Also, I know Woody is a wild card (as are all people from Missouri
) but who is the other one?

That's a vanity handicap...

I have two ideas:
First, we could do a modified best ball where on par 5s you count the top score, on par 4s you count the top 2, and par 3s you count the top 3 scores, add all that up and that is the team total (or could do 2, 3, 4 respectively)
Second idea is best and worst, add the best score and the worst score from a whole to be the team score.
I think either of those would even out the various handicaps, and the first one is a take off from what we did at the Dallas event.

You are correct. Just give team Iowa the trophies and we can call it good!

I like this idea, but backwards, 3 on 5s, 2 on 4s and 1 on 3s.
Honestly, we have to calculate it all after the round or rounds, so I don't think it's a huge deal either way.
I'll be happy to calculate everything, I'll make sure I have cards done ahead of time. With whatever format we choose.
So I'll vote and say no handicaps, here are the options from my side:
-Scorecard Best Ball within group 18 holes
-Scorecard Best Ball within group 36 holes
-Group Score 18 holes, 3-5s/2-4s/1-3s
-Group Score 36 holes, 3-5s/2-4s/1-3s
-Group Score 18 holes, 1-5s/2-4s/3-3s
-Group Score 36 holes, 1-5s/2-4s/3-3s
I would say we could do one format for the AM and another for the PM.
Maybe the 5s/4s/3s in the morning and the best ball scorecard in the afternoon.
Corydon was team best ball. It was not as easy to figure out as it sounds. Take that from the guy that runs league and various tournaments at his local club.

I didn't even think about it in corydon. Who started this complicated chatter?!
I think I might have, and I'll be happy to take care of it all, I'll get cards in advance and once tee times are finalized, I'll put them all together, they'll be color coded!I didn't even think about it in corydon. Who started this complicated chatter?!
