GM North East Meet: 5th January - Dunstanburgh Castle

what are the cuts?

1 shot if you win and 3 shots if you win twice in a row?

Only problem in my eyes with this is you could win 2 in a row and not shoot under your h/c and be cut 4 shots and struggle to have any chance in any of the other meets as you won't get any shots back?

Maybe cut them a shot for each win but if they have more than one win and they are both won with more than 36 points cut them a extra shot?
 
Or ignore society handicapping altogether and trust our CONGU ones...

*anti-society handicaps hat firmly on*

Do you meen just play off your official h/c even if you win?

Only slight problem i could see is that being winter no one will get a cut on there COGU h/c so you could win the next 4 or so meets and still be off the same h/c as the seaon at most peoples clubs don't start till about April.
 
just giving people big cuts gives others chance to win

I agree you want everyone to have a chance of winning but you could rule out a person to have any chance of winning in the rest of the meets if they win twice not shooting under h/c and get cut 4 shots.

Also say if someone finishes 2nd or 3rd but shoots under h/c will they be cut?
 
Cutting Moogie after this one was just a wind up! Personally I think we just need to keep it fun and not worry too much about complicating things.

I cut Moogie by one after his first win because he was a couple of shots under his handicap. Now normally that wouldn't warrant a single shot reduction in HC but he played off one less this time and came in two shots under it, so not a bad guide. I didn't bother applying a reduction after this win.

Now, if he does win the next five in a row - he will be off scratch!!

Seems fair to me, so cut a shot for a win, what if someone doesn't win but shoots under h/c?
 
I'm in.

As for handicap cuts, I don't mind either way. I turn up for the craic, winning is just an added bonus. Cut me to scratch and I might not win for years but don't forget, others would also get some good cuts, and wins and cuts would be shared round.

For me its the day out on a (new) course with like minded guys.
 
We now have three tee times booked so can accommodate 12 in total. Thats as many as we can have as they have bookings in before and after us now.

I'll put a list up so we know who's in and who are TBC's.
 
OK situation as its currently stands:

Confirmed = 8

MGL, Hobbit, Wayman, Richy, Kellfire, Deano, Kev Off The Tea, Cherry13

TBC's = 6

Faldo's Jumper, GaresfieldACE, GaresfieldBILL, DelB, Moogie (Scared of another cut), Bozza.

Given that at this stage we have 12 max slots available, I propose to allocate the slots to TBC's on a first come first served basis - hope everyone is happy with that as can't see another way to do it really.

Good idea, might be less than 300 posts to sort a game that way...
