These are the preliminary results for the tournament. Above is the link to the "simple" results, which shows the player purse summary, the team purse summary, the members without guest net results, the members with guests using Callaways best ball results and skins results, the members with guests with established handicaps best ball and skins results, the members without guests skins results, and the closest to the pin results. The link below shows all the scores, including gross scores.
We did have a large turnout (89 players out of 92 registered). There were the usual last minute changes. I think the final count is one flight of 15 Member Guest teams with GHIN's, one flight of 16 Member Guest teams usually Callaway handicaps and one flight of 27 members playing without guests.
Member Guest with GHIN Tournament: The teams of Mike Meissenburg/Leon Tomasyan, Robert Simpson/George Gonzalez and Russ Barrrett/Mark Thomas all had net 63's. They all receive the same share in team prize money, but for the listing on our CMSGA website's Hall of Champions the winning team was decided by a card off. They all tied again on the back nine score. With the lowest last six hole score our winner is Mike and Leon. The lowest individual gross in this flight was Kevin Shimada (74). The lowest individual net was Dave Demerest (70).
Member Guest with Callaways Tournament: The teams of Conrad Wilson/Doug Peterson and Joe Willis/Kyle Willis both had nets of 62. The winning team using the lowest back nine score is Conrad and Doug. Kyle Willis also won two skins. Andy Crinella won two CTP's. The lowest gross in this flight was 74, scored by Andy Crinella and Mike Harwood. Andy and Mike also had the lowest nets (71) shared with Doug Peterson.
Individual Low Net Tournament: Dean Skinner won with a net 69. Steve Keith had two skins. The lowest gross was Alex Cruz with a below par 69 (net 71).
Thanks to Dan Hudgins and Ron Plummer for working on this complex event. In effect, this project was like six tournaments in one. On top of that, once a Callaway is calculated for players without Handicap Indexes after the round to determine the Course Handicap, it needed to be manually adjusted to a Handicap Index which could produce that Course Handicap.
Some scorecards did not show the Playing Handicap correctly, which was 85% of the Course Handicap and was used for the team score. Players trying to calculate their team score may be off by a stroke or two. The scorecard printing program was unable to resolve the different handicap rules among players on the same card.
For skins calculations, the off low adjustment increased the handicap applied to most players. For skins, 100% of the course handicap was used, but as each flight had players with + handicaps, the skins handicaps ended up a bit higher than the Course Handicap by playing "off low". Fascinating stuff for math nerds.
