Hope everyone has a good Christmas, et. al.(Don't want to offend the Swede by not mentioning Santa Lucia)
I hope Santa brings me a new short game. . .

Fitz

Playing in Tuscany on Turkey day weekend. . . National Finals. Should be interesting as I haven't played since mid october. I'll try and represent the GMC way. . . no, not hung over bitches.
11/2009 • 19:26
Fitch

Isn't that the GMC way.... Hung Over! You going to make it next year Fitz?
11/2009 • 13:06
Hole In One

Of course!

11/2009 • 08:35

After 6+/- weeks of being off, I'm finally getting back on the links. . . Playing in a crater of a volcano on Sat.

10/2009 • 10:43
Fitz

What's up boys? Hope all is well. How are the late season scores going?
10/2009 • 08:43
eriksson

I just played Bethpage Black and shot a 96. What a course and crazy difficult.
10/2009 • 01:28
Fitz

I'm in awe. . .you have posted nearly 100 rounds more than I have. . . can I say I hate you yet? Good for you man.
10/2009 • 06:06
Fitch

Nice numbers JEG. Last time I played was the open. The kids are keeping us rather busy.
10/2009 • 09:13
Hole In One

Fitch

Fellas. I am inviting whomever wants to come up this weekend for IrishFest. It is a great big party. We go every year. Free room and board. We will be having a fire in the Cul De Sac on Friday night and hitting the Fest up on Saturday. Black47 and Gaelic Storm will be performing. Give me a call if you are interested or email me.

Hole In One

RCC is closed for weekend, tournament. Okemo it is. EARLY is fine by me.

Hey guys...thought you might be interested in seeing this clip. This is a friend of mine from high school:

Hole In One

THOR DROPPING THE HAMMER! What an animal, he CANT play the GMO EVER!!!!!!!
8/2009 • 12:36
Eder

He gets called in for golf tournaments as entertainment and such. He can drive the ball well over 400 yards. He is one of the funniest guys I know...let's hire him for next year's entertainment (aside for the entertainment we get from Christoffer's outfits).

8/2009 • 17:31
eriksson

JEG & Sully,

Any interest in playing Okemo on Saturday? I am playing with a buddy and it would be great if you guys could join. Let me know and I will book the tee time. Around 11:00 AM
8/2009 • 09:58
Eder

Christoffer...give me a call if you are in VT this weekend. I'll be around, so we should hang out.

-Eder
8/2009 • 10:53
eriksson

Sounds good Eder. Send me an email with your cell number. Ceriksson77@gmail.com
8/2009 • 13:21
Sully

Sorry Chris, headed out of town that day. Next time you're up though, give a shout.
8/2009 • 19:49
Hole In One

Hey, wish I could, but cannot. Family in town this weekend. Hit em' straight!

8/2009 • 06:48
Fitz

Where is this photo of the new trophy?

8/2009 • 23:01
The boss

Fitch ...Bruce coming to play Saratoga Aug 25th .....wow
8/2009 • 09:42
The Fitch

Going to be out of town that week.

8/2009 • 05:17
Fitz

WTF? Was Eder the only one documenting the event? Good work Eder. I appreciate your photos. I can't believe no one else took any photos. LAME-O's
8/2009 • 08:17
Fitz

Great to hear buddy. High reps and low weight build tone. I like what your going for there.
8/2009 • 03:52
Fitz

Have to admit, a little dissapointed in your wife Reese. . . Throwing away a 9 inch trophy. . . tut, tut.
8/2009 • 08:15
reese

thats what happens when you have 3 kids and a husband who still thinks he is one...shes lost her mind
8/2009 • 13:19
Hacker of the Year (again)

The MRI on my should came back...and it looks like I'm okay from all those swings. Just a little tear (like Favre) in the shoulder, but I should be okay for next year's event. I will have to start playing like Joba and have a 100-swing count when I play for now on leading up to the 2010 event.
8/2009 • 05:18
Fitz

Forgot this point. Even with taking all those strokes, Eder still managed to take more photos than anyone else. . . he truly is AMAZING. . .
8/2009 • 07:18
FITCH

Maybe next year we can bring someone from the art department who likes taking photos.
8/2009 • 18:15
Reese

whoa whoa whoa I took at least 4 of those photos......and the main one with the covetted new trophy will be sent to JEG soon....Fitz had your name engraved on it for the years you won...

8/2009 • 11:55
The real 'loser' in this tourney...

Anyone notice what a wimp the Swede is? He didn't win it (again) and than he doesn't even make it to the site anymore to contribute to the message board! Lame...
8/2009 • 05:15
Fitz

Judas Man! I may just have to come back to stop that prediction. . . I was just impressed that he came in second, what with him growing a thrid testie on his wrist.
8/2009 • 07:19
Fitch

The girls will be a year older. I am going to start practicing now. I need to get in the top 4. Watch out. I am brining back the old school 3 wood!
8/2009 • 15:50
eriksson

Very true...but some people have to work for a living and can't keep posting stuff here. Anyway, just came back from San Fran and played Half Moon Bay Links. Nice course but have been struggling with the short game....

Next year is the year...I will WIN.

8/2009 • 20:36
Reese

My vote it to keep it up there at least 1 more year....

My vote is on Friday to due our normal tourney..

And on Sat to due a scramble or Captain and crew as you New Englanders call it...this will give everyone a chance to compete and to have a chance to win as well as play with people you may not have in the past... Broken up by scores and past tourneys...
I like the idea of staying in a house or 2 ...Already got a soft yes from Paul Sherlock..love to play Green mountain national as well next year
8/2009 • 14:19
FITCH

Sounds like a great plan to me. I am in. i alreayd cleared my calendar for next summer.

8/2009 • 09:47
JEG

Okay, I have to post this. After everyone left. I was called into the pro shop. Someone did not pay. I had to pay the $42 balance. I am not concerned about that, but I am concerned that someone had the balls to not pay. Here is the break down I have, 11 Golfers, 9 paying golfers:

1. Van - comp'd by sister
2. JEG - Member

PAID WITH CREDIT CARD:
(Saw receipts)
3. Sweden
4. Sullivan
5. Eder
6. Fred
7. Fitch

PAID WITH CASH:
(Saw only 3 receipts and 2 paid together)
8. Reese - Cash
9. Chuck - Cash
10. Heim - Cash
11. Lucky - Cash

Someone above in the cash list either did not check into the pro shop or simply forgot to pay. I checked with pro shop monday morning and they said the drawer was balanced and not over. Either way, it's been taken care of. Just an FYI for all that attended. Did Lucky by that glove he was looking at Reese?
8/2009 • 11:13
heim

and they didn`t give me a receipt at all so that should be the reason for the missed receipt. i even asked the guy if i needed a receipt and he said i was all set as he handed me the cart keys. i think they hosed you jon.
8/2009 • 10:40
Fitch

I am guessing the guy who did not pay was the one that posted the message on Thursday! Who is teh cheap bastard!
8/2009 • 11:31
Hole In One

Sweden admitted to the dictionary sized post. All good. I think RCC fucked up.
8/2009 • 11:43
Reese

it was chuck looking at a glove but he used mine for the day...
8/2009 • 11:51
Reese

An offical Thanks

Thanks again to everone that showed up and played..And for Jon with the prizes

Nice job Fitch on closest to the pin on Friday...

I would like to really thank Hole n One and Sweed for handing the tourney back to me after I lost it on the first 3 holes on Sat....

I never want to see those greens again!!!

Heim and Bob I got charged a security deposit charge for a new toilet for your room...apprently you blew the existing one up
8/2009 • 12:56
Heim

i think bob melted it with the T-Bell from Thursday night.
8/2009 • 16:12
Reese

If there were 3 cash receipts and 2 paid together ...does that not = 4 people

1 receipt for 2 people and 2 other receipts
8/2009 • 19:49
Fitch

Reese- If I remember correctly u let loose 4 time Sun morning. Anyone want to get a date for next year?
8/2009 • 22:05
JEG

3 total paid in cash. 1 receipt had 2 on it, once had 1 on it

8/2009 • 19:57
Erica Knolhoff

wish i could have made it...had to make a trip to visit my grandmother who is going into a nursing home. i am definitely in for next year though!

8/2009 • 18:38

Please email me any and all photos anyone took so I can post on the site
8/2009 • 08:33

Hole In One

Thanks to all that came out!

8/2009 • 02:55
Fitz

Well. . . As I sit here in my not so air conditioned office in Rome and you all are asleep dreaming of greatness on the course. . .or finishing up tying one on. . . I just wanted to wish you all good luck, hit 'em straight and make sure you bring your A game this weekend. Win one for the Sasquatch. . .
8/2009 • 12:49
FITCH

A great time once again. JEG- Thanks for allowing us to play such a fine course in your backyard. DUDE- The wife and I will be down to NYC in the fall.
Lets start planning the outing next year. Do we want to move it or keep in VT?
8/2009 • 12:51
Fitch

Also..... For those of you that said you were going to make it but never came you missed out on another great adventure. I think the Hampton Inn is excited to see us leave. Their plumbing can now get a rest.
8/2009 • 07:27
Hole In One

Thanks Fitz.

8/2009 • 23:54
lucky

Hey! I though this was a trash talkin forum!
Not a "chat with your girlfriends, and make plans forum"
"I could make it rain out there!"
Bring it!
8/2009 • 23:59
Chuck

Lucky,

Relax, this IS for fun! I hope your game is as strong as your words.

8/2009 • 21:03

8/2009 • 14:46

Hole In One

8/2009 • 13:03
Hole In One

8/2009 • 13:04
Fitch

8/2009 • 09:18
Fitz

Sorry I can't make it boys. Should be a good turn out. I see a little home cookin' from Hole n one. . . someone needs to step up and show him the greens can be 1 and 2 putted at RCC!
8/2009 • 13:19
Hole In One

YOU KNOW IT!

8/2009 • 19:26
chuck

alright guys. I just bought a new putter because that is where the game is at. I am going to be named hole in one after this weekend, and plan to dominate!
8/2009 • 07:32
Sully

FINALLY - a little smack talking!
8/2009 • 08:56
Hole In One

EASY CHAMP! I have not played much since JULY 15. Only a few times. All it does is rain. But I will be playing everyday this week. So that might help.
8/2009 • 11:01
Fitch

Baseball Season is about over for me. I am going to be fine tuning my irons on the course this weekend. Headed out for some practice. See you all in a few days.
8/2009 • 19:47
Hole In One

Hey Chuck, nice to see such determination so early. Good luck with that new putter on RCC greens yo!
8/2009 • 22:58
Champ

I am now offically going to start praticing..which means no more ring dings and tasty cakes. actually going to hit some balls this week...9 holes since last tourney may not be enough!! I got a call from Rutland CC they said some guy named Hole N One has been sleeping on the course and talking to her greens

8/2009 • 19:25

Where's the Swede? Havent heard or seen many posts? Anyone? Bueller? I think he is nervous this year....
8/2009 • 12:50
Hole In One

Good question. I just assumed he was in. Never really rec'd confirmation.
8/2009 • 13:38
Sully

Scroll to the bottom of this page he states: "Im in" So I guess He's in...

7/2009 • 22:11
Hole In One

I knew I should have held on to that damn TINY TROPHY!
8/2009 • 20:13
Reese

Wait to you see the new trophy she ran out and got

7/2009 • 09:08
Reese

My wife threw out the trophy!
8/2009 • 13:20
heim

reese...lets touch base in the next day or two to figure things out. i`m taking it you`re gonna be at my place around 9ish thursday? got the day off so i`m good to go. we getting in a practice round thursday afternoon?
7/2009 • 09:30
Fitch

That is funny Reese. She toss it out with your manhood when you got married!
7/2009 • 13:12
Sullivan

Three words: DIVORCE HER IMMEDIATELY! Does she not know/understand what this has done for future participants of GMO? It makes this all look like a mockery!! Her actions warrant her to stay home with the kids as you take an extra day in VT. I guess you will just have to try twice as hard this year to earn back what you have no proof of ever winning. (Oh yeah except for the big picture that comes up when you open this site up)
7/2009 • 20:42
Reese

Sully..Laughing out loud as I am reading your post to Kelly, Corrine and Donnie. Kell is picking one up and getting names engraved who won... Were having your name engraved as this years Winner!! I am flying solo for this trip as well as ever trip in the future as a result of the throwaway...5 more days ..Can't wait

7/2009 • 09:06
Sully

I dont want to jinx it, but the 15 day forescast is out, and those two days look AWESOME. (sunny & high 70's)Time for some good old fashion throw downs on the greens!
7/2009 • 07:17
Fitch

Looks like a good sunny weekend. Looking forward to it.
Sully- You know how F-Love is getting up there? I have not talked to him?
7/2009 • 09:43
Sully

He told me verbatum " I will be taking the train to Toga, spending the night at Nimmos, eating all his food and taking a dump in his garage before I leave" No joke. So it sounds like you should be picking him up at Nimmos early Friday morning or something and then driving to VT for arrival at 8ish to accomadate a T time for 9. We're not afraid to start without you guys if you late!

7/2009 • 09:46
Sully

Reese-I believe we are just going to watch the weather as its gets closer as to a morning or afternoon T Time. Will post it a few days before.
7/2009 • 12:45
heim

good to know, good to know. is there a meeting with the dean wrt the two editors? i can bring a bat just in case we need some extra leverage :)
7/2009 • 16:49

am i part of that we? still gotta get thursday off but should be able to
7/2009 • 20:50
Reese

You are Heim ..got to drop off some stuff at Lakewood and then were gone thurs hopefully by 9am
7/2009 • 09:48
Reese

fair enough we should be up by 3pm

7/2009 • 12:42
Hole In One

If anyone is coming up early, Sullivan and I are planning on a round at LSC thur afternoon.
7/2009 • 16:25
Reese

What time Jon

7/2009 • 14:45
Lodging

Gents and Ladies
Were all booked for 2 efficencies at Edgewater for Thurs and Fri night they did not have any more condos or homes but this sounds nice. 85 a night! Cheap enough... total of 6 beds all are double beds so might be worth pulling a air mattress or sleeping bag...
7/2009 • 10:28
Fitch

Reese- That is right. I am going to be coming up Friday morning. I am only an hour from the course.
7/2009 • 09:57
Fitch

I am waiting to hear from F-Love to see what his ETA in Saratoga is. Not sure about Fri but will be in town Fri morning for the Tee Time.
Sull and JEG- Have not been up to VT in awhile for work. Hands are tied with Expenses. See you next week.
7/2009 • 19:01
Reese

So Fitch ..ur not in need for lodging on thursday night is this correct? I would prefer not to be charged for 2 rooms if we only need 1 for Thurs night..Thanks

So for Thurs we have Heim me Lucky Christopher??
7/2009 • 15:23
Hole In One

Perfect. Lakehouse one night for sure!!
7/2009 • 20:12
Fitch

Sounds good to me.

7/2009 • 12:51

HOLE- Can you add "Bobbio" (Fitch) to the list as confirmed above?
7/2009 • 14:23
Hole In One

what are you talking about?
7/2009 • 15:17
Sully

Sorry I overlooked it. He was already in there.

7/2009 • 08:43
Sully

Calling out Knolhoff! Are you in on this gig or what? I saw your inquiry before but dont see your name on the list as confirmed? Where's all the other golfin' gals that you know?
7/2009 • 18:30
Fitch

I am in! Fred call me 518-669-4245.
7/2009 • 14:46

7/2009 • 18:40
erica

yes i am in! i tried to get some girls so i would have some people on MY SIDE!!! i'll keep trying but i am definitely in! i tried to sign up but it wouldnt let me..ill try again now
7/2009 • 19:44
Eder

Erica...I'm on your side as long as you don't beat me by too much! Golf is not my specialty.

7/2009 • 12:55
Sully

Looks like the only Tourny's at LSC in Sept are the 26th/27th. The other weekends are open from what the site depicts. Sept 5th/ 6th is Labor Day Weekend, so that will be a cluster F* most likely. What are peoples thoughts for the 12th/13th? Personally, I would rather play the original dates as once we get into Sept we have a greater chance for shitty weather ruining the weekend.
7/2009 • 13:06
Reese

Next year we do NJ
7/2009 • 14:59
Fitch

I am with Sully on this one. I melt in the rain. I like the August Dates better.
7/2009 • 22:41
Hole In One

I am down with current dates too, next year we can do fall

7/2009 • 08:51
Hole In One

***** GMO NEWS *****

Since we cannot seem to get too many golfers to commit this august, what does everyone think about moving this to the FALL?? I am open to dates. I will leave this up to the masses to decide.
7/2009 • 08:56
EDER

Doesn't matter too much to me. The fall is a busy time for me, but since I suck so bad at gold, I wouldn't be hurt by not being able to attend. I know that some of you might be upset if you can't see me throw driver into the woods or see me slam my pitching wedge into the ground.
7/2009 • 08:57
EDER

Opps, golf, that is. Not "gold". Guess I was dreaming.
7/2009 • 09:26
Reese

My feeling is if we can get more golfers to commit ahead of time to a weekend in fall lets do it and do it Sat and Sun which might help add more golfers. Maybe we can talk to Jonas and Bojan and find out what weekend works for them. IF we cant get a firm commitment then lets go ahead with the dates in Aug.

7/2009 • 08:43
Eder

I can take at least two people in my house in Rutland if needed. Just let me know...give me a call at 802.558.2813.

We are a no go for the 2 editors Inn. They have a conferance in for the week we will be there.

On the bright we do have a meeting set up with the dean to discuss future tourneys and the involment of the College on thurs prior to the Tourney. They had offered to do some lunch or dinner this year back at the College. It does seem for future tourneys they will advertise it and give us lodging as long as we donate some type of funds. They need about 6 - 8 months in advance....

So my feeling is for the out of towners is to stay in Rutland somewhere together or a house on a Lake.....thoughts..??

a house on a lake wouldn`t be a bad idea.

Gents..
Need your thoughts?

After talking with Jon G we like the idea of raising some money for both the tourney and the college. We thought the best way to do this was to sell 50 50 tickets that Jon would have printed up. Were hoping that we can mail out 20 tickets to 10 people for 20 a pop for you to sell. So 4 grand would be raised 2000 to winner of the 50 50 and 1000 to the College as a donation for the right to stay at the 2 editors inn and 1000 to our tourney for pries and to cover Jons outlay in printing and materials...So basically do you think you can sell 20 tickets for 20 bucks...Jon is checking with his accountant to see if they can write a check to the GMC open for tax reasons if Jon can set that up.....Thoughts... I know Bojan himself can call a sponser and raise a million in like 10 minutes
5/2009 • 14:42

Here is a better idea...let's just play golf
5/2009 • 12:38

In an effort for full disclosure, I will post my last score. After my smoking low 80's performance on the first round of the year, my head got in the way of my 95 stroke round two saturdays ago. Had a 9 on the first hole. There were a total of 12 bunkers on #1 and I was so intimidated that I didn't hit one of them. . . I was in the woods the entire hole. . .I hate this game.

Rutland Country Club for SAT round. I have spoken to club pro and he is getting me a deal on golf, food, etc. I will post as soon as I can. Again, this is just a suggestion, we don't have to play RCC.

Something to think about for future tourneys. Reese and I chatted about making this a traveling tourney. Make a choice as to where the tourney will be the following year at dinner sat nite. Thoughts on this idea?

Hello everyone, Ryan Reese and I chatted, I checked out the LSC tourney schedule and we have to make some changes to the location of our GMOPEN.
Dates are still perfect I think.

ITEM #1: Location, Location, Location

Since LSC has a tourney that entire weekend, here is what we suggest, keeping in mind, this is saying that everyone will be in town THUR nite.

FRI, AUG 7 - Lake St Catherine
(approx 11am for 1st T-time)

SAT, AUG 8 - Rutland CC (approx 1 pm for 1st T-time)

SAT, AUG 8th - Awards dinner and libations (RCC has a good bar and menu) (approx 5:30 pm end of rounds)

SUN, AUG 9 - Optional round where ever if anyone wants to play, I am in!
I know some who might have traveled far to attend will want the day to travel.

Thoughts?
4/2009 • 10:42

Gents,

I love how this year’s tourney is taking shape this early in the season, FANTASTIC boyz.

A couple of things:

We need figure out a way to make the scoring fair if someone can't play on Friday but will show up for Saturday’s 36 holes, especially if we switch course etc… Maybe we should just give the prestigious trophy to the best average for the weekend.

Where should we play? I guess Fridays play will be at LSCC but Saturday is still open. Please lets not play a crap course though. I recently got a house near Okemo Valley Golf Course and we could play there. It looks nice but I have never played the course. Thoughts?

Facebook. I got an email from JJ about adding a page on Facebook for this years tourney. We need someone to volunteer to get cranking on this since I hate FB. I think JJ is the perfect guy for this?

Update the website. JEG could you please post the new dates on the website. I also wonder if there is anyway you could add a sign up tab on the website. This tab basically signs you up for the event plus commits you to this fantastic weekend even though people will put crap there.

We need a date...so we can start pushing this event. AUG 8-9?
3/2009 • 08:28

AUG 8-9 or AUG 15-16? Lets have a vote folks?

Both works for me but think
15-16 is better. Lets set a date before the week is over so we can get the word out there and update the website

AUG 8-9 seems to be the best date for most people checking the site. I would love playing 36 on Friday but cant take any more vaca. What do you guys think about playing 36 on Sat and 18 on Sun?
3/2009 • 11:49
heim

8th and 9th work for me. i like the idea of the Friday-Saturday as well. 3 rounds sounds like a good idea as well.
What are the chances they let us stay at the two editors this year? maybe we can go to them well in advance and enter into some kind of agreement with them to pay for cleaning services following the weekend. just a thought...
3/2009 • 18:29

weekend of the 8th is good for me ..I def can't play sun.. But I am down for 36 on Sat..and 18 on friday if we need it

Lets reach out early to the Pres this year and lock down something from the college...I will take the lead on this...Can we all agree to chip in 50 bucks a person their general fund??

Best 2 quotes of the weekend:

1. From the random girl at, the ever so classy, Forum bar in Granville.
(Jonas was there to witness this. I couldn't get enough of late night Granville.) Apparently Christoffer and I had met this girl on friday night while we were at, the even more classy, BB's Thirst House (I think that's the name of it) and we came up with the brilliant idea to buy everyone in the bar a drink.
So, amidst her reeling off all of these references to what must have been a very long conversation at BB's, that I don't remember at all, she asks me "where's your gay friend with the scarf?"

2. from Christoffer himself.
We're driving home, sitting in traffic on 87, and as a car in front of us cuts us off Christoffer says: "Oh, look at this c#nt. I'm surrounded by f#cking c#nts everywhere."

RECEPTION DINNER

Gents,

The reception dinner will be hosted at the Red Brick Grill in Poultney at 7:30 on Saturday. We have reservation for 12 people and the evening’s host/toast master is Bojan. At dinner we will summarize the day, the results and the next days format. We will also crown 2008 GMO’s best mustache. Please dress accordingly and let Bojan know if you cannot make it.

Again, the evening’s toastmaster is Bojan and speeches or pranks needs to go through Bojan.

Gentlemen,

There is now less then 2 weeks before we T-OFF the 4th straight Green Mountain Open. By the posting it looks like we will have a record amount of players, both new and old participants. It is also nice to see more people actually involved in making this tourney even better. Even though it is hard to predict the outcome of 2008 edition of GMO, one thing is certain; we will have a new Champion this year. Finally!!!

On a more serious note and I don't want to sound bitter…. but after dealing with a bunch of geezers at certain educational institutions and country clubs. I cannot get over how certain people, businesses or institutions actually mange their life, organizations or subordinates. I personally always though logic prevails have been proven wrong. Anyway, what I am trying to say is that I don’t want to stand on the first T box (at 8:00 AM on Saturday August 16, 2008) getting the questions when certain alums will show up. So let’s collectively make sure that everyone on the list below is going to show or NOT.

1) J. Barry (confirmed)
2) B. Celekovic (confirmed)
3) J. Adler (confirmed)
4) JEG (confirmed)

5) C.Eriksson (confirmed)

Gents,

I just got off the phone with the presidents office and the Two Editors Inn is a NO GO. Supposedly, students vandalized the Inn when alumni’s soccer players stayed there. A policy was put in place by the former president, Jack Brennan, and they will not make any exception to the rule even though I would take full financial responsibility for any damages. Sorry gents but we will have to find alternatives.

Called today to solidify Tee Times for 16th/17th based on current participants. We are booked for 8:00,8:10,8:20,8:30 on Saturday but Sunday there is a problem and here are the options. When I wanted to book Sunday AM for the same Tee Times as Saturday they claimed they cant allow it because there is a Tourny being played in the AM!( Its not on the LSCC site so WTF!) So our options are this: On Sunday the earlist we can get a Tee Time as a group this big is 2:30PM. (I had her pencil us in) Now I am well aware that this scenario is not the best as the bulk of you are traveling from out of state and after 4 plus hours of golf that means you cats dont get home until 10pm/11PM and thats not cool. Or maybe you guys dont care, just thinking of you here. I asked her to let me know that if she can accomadate an earlier Tee Time on Sunday to call me immediately. I guess my question here is that I thought we had these dates blocked out for us? Or was that not the case? Second option if we dont want to do the above is possibly look at Prospect Bay on Bomoseen for Sunday. Its no St. Catherine but its close and might be the only other option.
OR as a last resort we bang out the GMO on Saturday. Yes that means 36 holes of golf in one day, and I already asked her if we could do that and she said yes. She also offerid to give us group rates on Golf/Food which I may follow up on to see if the price per person is cheaper than going at it individually. It seems half the battle here is that they dont except Tee Times more than a week in advance. She made an exception here with us as our group is big. So lets chime in as to how everyone feels about the above and we can work out the details this week.

That sucks. Just a thought, what about the course in Whitehall for Sunday?

Dude, I booked the t times way back....I will call them..
8/2008 • 08:25
Sully

Thanks Chris, I thought that was the case, let us know.
8/2008 • 21:21
Reese

My vote is for 36 holes or and early tee time at another course on Sunday. Like to get back home Sun at a decent time...Not to mention it allows us to have a few more beers Sat night..

8/2008 • 19:59

sorry boys, coming to VT in sept. with the wife so funds are tight. Once again I will not make it sorry for any inconvience. Sully see you in sept

8/2008 • 12:04

Has anyone spoken to Brian Carrol, J Stevens or Rooter as to where they stand? We should be booking these Tee Times this weekend.
8/2008 • 12:13

I talked to Brian Carroll few weeks ago and he should be driving up with me. I'll give him a buzz this weekend to make sure he can make it.

What about the residence halls? I stayed in Cree during Reunion Weekend and it was a blast! Perhaps they have room on one of the floors...especially if we are willing to pay some money. On the other hand, I do know that they get booked with camps and such. It's worth a call to find out.
8/2008 • 09:29
Eder

Let me know if you want me to check this option out. I'm only 8 miles away from campus and still keep in contact with many over there.

Give them a buzz and see what the deal is with the dorms. I am sure they can find few rooms available.

What about the dorms? Can we stay there? I really don't care where we sleep as long as it's somewhat close to the course.

Gents,

It looks like two editors inn is out. We have to find alternatives...Anyway, please see the response below (don't know how correct by attaching the email but wanted people to know.)





Thank you for getting back to me. I am curious: previous years we have been able to use Two Editors during the tournament. Is it fully booked or has something changed?


Regards,

Chris

Christoffer,

Sorry it has taken me a couple of days to get back with you. I am sorryto say that the Two Editors Inn is not available for use. I would suggest the Panorama (518) 282-9000 or 9648. If I can be of further
help please let me know.

Chris and Ray,

I trust all is well and you both are enjoying the summer without thecollege kids around.

Ray, how is the roster looking for the upcoming season?

Anyway, I would like to ask you for a huge favor. As you probably know we have put together an annual GMC alumnae golf tournament in Poultney.
This year is the 4th straight year for this prestigious tournament and will as usual be played at Lake St. Catherine Country Club. The dates
are set for August 16th and 17th and I wanted to see if you have any pull in reserving beds at Two Editors Inn. I am going to ask anyone staying for the two nights making a $100 donation straight to the soccer
program at Green Mountain, without any exception. I will also take full responsibility leaving the place in the same shape it was when we got
there. We are looking for housing for the night of 15th and 16th. Please let me know if any of you can help?

Best Regards,


Christoffer Eriksson '00

Your making it sound like I have a problem Reese?? So if you could golf for FREE at one one of Vermonts Top Rated Courses and the greens were just ROLLIN' wouldnt you take advantage of such a Perk? Not that any of that is true.
7/2008 • 17:45
Reese

Sully I am jealous .....And you do have a problem..cause I just bought Nintendo Wie Golf..I should be fine... right??
7/2008 • 17:56
Reese

I would like to bring to the GMC Open Board that Sully might be onto something if we can tie in group scores...
May make it even fun for the hackers like myself

7/2008 • 15:47
Reese

I am starting to get a little anxious when I hear from a little birdie who is down in Jersey, that Sully is playing almost 9 holes a day!!!

The only 9 holes I do a day are from Dunkin Dounuts. Can I pretend I am fitz and take his scores when he plays in Italy those days.
7/2008 • 17:08
eriksson

Reese,

these guys can play 36 holes a day for two years and they will still crumble under pressure at the open. Barry is a perfect example and Sully will not be an exception.

7/2008 • 16:11

I am waiting to hear back about the housing. Should have something tomorrow gents...

7/2008 • 16:11
Sullivan

You know Reese, Fitzy and the Swede were always taking care of tallying the scores while I concentrated on Drinking. (Notice the capital "D" in the Drinking part) So we will have to have one of them chime in here. I would imagine it is group low, but I dont know the specifics on how they pair teams for the following day.It always seemed to be an even match to me,so?????
7/2008 • 01:29
Fitz

I know Eder, we heard your frustration last year, and instituted the 23.34(A)i(C)vi(A) this rule affectionately dubbed the "ORIGINAL HACKER RULE" states that "if during the course of the tournament, Christopher Eder (henceforth, Hacker)is not in a position to be the "Hacker of the Year" other members of his foursome will, at all costs, attempt to disrupt Hacker's game. Including but not limited to driving over his ball with a cart, coughing in his backswing and tossing, not throwing, spare golf balls near his feet during his swing." This rule was voted on by the GMO Commitee in November of 2007 and, if ratified, will take effect during this year's tournament, thus ensuring that you will again be the "Original Hacker".
7/2008 • 15:43
Reese

So this is individual!

With no group? or a side bet with the foursome you are parred with?
7/2008 • 01:42
Fitz

Set up and Scoring for GMO:
Normally the GMO Commitee will establish the pairings for each 4-some that tees off on Saturday. Accomodations are made for those requesting to play with certain people, but not all requests can be met. (Basically don't get pissed if you're playing with The Swede)
So day one is more or less a draw for pairings.
Day two pairings are a bit more complex and since my worst grades at GMC were in math I will try to explain the basics. (Swede knows it all)
Basically all of the scores are taken in and using the slope/rating a differential of the scores is found. Using this differential the number of strokes Sully gets will vary greatly vs. the number of strokes Eder with get and etc. I has worked in the past, so long as someone doesn't sandbag the first day and then shoot 81 on the second day. Again, GMO Committee has the right, AND THE DUTY, to determine any sandbagger play. BE WARNED.
I'm sure I messed that up so here is the Swede to explain it. . .
Have fun boys, and thank God I'm not playing. Just shot my worst round in 2 or 3 years. Not even going to say how high it was, but it was high. . .
7/2008 • 01:44
Fitz

Uh. . . sorry, didn't answer the question. . . The answer Reese is individual. This is an individual competition with LD and C-To-P. USPGA rules apply.
7/2008 • 07:54
Sullinator

Thanks Fitz, I figured it was along the lines of individual but I didnt want to steal you Thunder! Good luck on bringing that score down!
7/2008 • 11:29
Eder

Just to clear something up...Jonas and Damien had much higher scores than me. After Professor Fitz and Captain Pink Shirt (Swede) figured out the standard deviation, I just barely finished ahead of the Hacker of the Year. Something doesn't seem right in that calculation, but a few drinks will settle my frustration.
7/2008 • 12:24

7/2008 • 13:39
Sullivan

OK, its crunch time! A little over 2 weeks until GMO and a few things should be settled this week. 1) Lets get a FINAL # on participants by Friday, August 1st as the list below may or may not have changed. This should give us a clear communication with the Pro Shop as to # of Tee Times for each day and where they can put us on each day. If Im not mistaken there is some type of Tourny on Sunday at 3ish or so.
2) What do you guys think about a Mulligan Pot? Here what Im thinking: For the economical price of somewhere between $15-$20 (we can raise/lower this figure after some more input) your team can buy 5 Mulligans to be used on Saturday's game. That money raised can go to the cost of burger/beer or sandwhich/beer or whatever after the rounds on Saturday as we all sit around and tally final scores that day. (Typically that is what has happened for you newbies) If you dont want to put in then you can be on your own for Food/Beer AND you dont get any mulligans for the team. Its up to you. The way I look at Sandwhich =$6 Beer =$5 so after tip and such your looking at $14/15 anyway. So lets chime in on a Final # and tell me what you think about the Mulligan dealio.
7/2008 • 15:11
Reese

Sounds good Sully

So is Sat a group low score or individual?

7/2008 • 15:12
Sull

In addition, where do you guys stand with lodging for this get together? I am putting up Debrosse/Chase. How about that Two Editors Inn deal? Or are we truly banned from staying there. I was saying to Jonas the other day, I dont see what the big deal is they can just return the empties you guys leave there and put that towards damages. They may even make money on the deal!

I'll live. I think it's a little hair-line fracture. I'm gonna play a little tennis on it today and see how it feels. As long as I don't whack my racket into my leg, I should be fine.

There isn't a ton of room in my house, but if anyone needs to stay there, it's not a problem. Perhaps we should be in touch with the new Alumni Director...he's a good guy and maybe he can pull some strings and get the Two Editor's Inn for us (or a floor on campus).

Good turn out! Looks like the group is carrying on well despite Fitz leaving the country. I unfortunatley will not be able to attend due to a scheduling conflict. I just wanted to wish everyone good luck. This tourny remains my favorite of the summer and I look foward to playing in 09'.

any chance that would have changed with a new president on board?
7/2008 • 11:15

Unless, S. Stevens is truly coming? I hear his short game is NASTY!

Ryan Debrosse and Mike Chase are 90 percent sure

Tiger Done for season.
WTF....
6/2008 • 00:39
Fitz

Yeah, I like to think of this as the PGA imitating the GMO circuit. You know, I, a three time champion, leave and it is anyone's Open to win (except the Swede). Tiger, the most dominate player in the game(I didn't say most dominate ever), leaves and anyone can step up and become the number 1 player in the world. . . Funny how the pro's are now imitating the amateurs. . .

6/2008 • 07:28

How about Rocco this weekend. I couldn't believe he hung around that long. . . Oh Swede, do you think your team will win tonight? Tough match against Russia!

We are looking good. Fantastic, we already have three full foursomes without any family and friends. It would be great if we could get a total of 5 foursomes before the end of the month. Great job everyone.

HOLE IN ONE

Well gentlemen, I just returned from Long Island. While in LI I had a chance to play a round on Bethpage Black, the home of the 2002 and next years 2009 US Open with defending champion Tiger Woods. Anyway, it was an amazing course to say the least. More sand than ALL the beaches in Miami, rough that almost broke my wrist on a few occasions. BUT most importantly - I shot PAR on 7 of the 18 holes! Played from the whites of course (73.9/140)....two triples, because of some crappy sand shots and walked off the course with a 92. What a day! Even if it was 98 degrees....
6/2008 • 07:32

Do you think that there is a direct flight from Rome to Rutland International airport? I'll check prices. . .
6/2008 • 14:16

There it is. I was waiting for it. A Swede, that admittedly loves the US culture can't handle that the Uncle Sam has a few boys in foreign countries. . . Or is just because you miss me. . . Jeff, hold him tighter, that's how he likes it.

6/2008 • 00:51
Yes Fitz DO.

First off, I thought that your English skillz were supposed to get better the more time that you were in the US. What has happened? When I left you were using the correct terminology and you verb usage was excellent. I must say I am very dissapointed that a 5 year old has better grammar skills than you. . . As Wolf Blitzer from CNN would say. . . "So sad, and so Swedish"
6/2008 • 07:51

Fitz, I knew you would question the syntax here and LOVE IT. Furthermore, the raison d'ętre for the plural rather than a singular verb is your questionable double/plural preference in certain things, i.e. you being a plural person. Switch hitter for you inbreeds / Americans?

This is brilliant – I have found something that makes you mad…. You know I am doing this out of pure love?

5/2008 • 07:10
Fitz from afar

Okay, the rating/slope for LSCCC is 68.2/121 for the course I am attempting to play at it is 70.1/128. A two stroke difference and only a par 71, and a more difficult, all be it a bit, course. Distance entry? Even if not, I'm still going to send you my scorecard and point and laugh at you when I still shoot better than all of you!!!!

Mr. Ericksson,
Your recent comments have attracted our PFFUOC (Phishing Filter For Unreasonable Offensive Comments). This program allows us to search out and find the most derrogatory comments made on the web. Although we deplore your comments we did want to congratulate you as the number 3 most offensive person on the web. You are right behind the PMFOE (People's Movement For Oppression Everywhere) and the UGTHPW (Ugly Guy's That Hate Pretty Women), 1 and 2 respectively. Although some can dispute your ranking as you appear to be a founding memeber of UGTHPW.

RE: DEADLINE for date change

Dear Players,

The dates for 2008 GMO are officially set for August 16 & 17. Unless two or more alums, requests a formal date change prior to Noon May 31, the 4th annual open will be played on the official dates set.

PLEASE NOTE: THE DEADLINE FOR A DATE CHANGE is NOON MAY 31. The alternative dates will be the first weekend in September unless more appropriate dates are being discussed.

If you and fellow alum cannot make the official dates but can participate on the alternative dates please let the board prior to the cut off.


Regards,

The Commissioners
5/2008 • 13:41
Spygate

As you might see from some of the older posts, the first weekend in September was not good for lots of people. So even if couple of falums can't make the Aug. dates and you reschedule it for Sep., than even more people won't be able to attend. The dates should stay as is, as we picked it after months of back and forth about what works and what doesn't. So, screw you Fitch-meister and stop crying.

5/2008 • 16:25
THE BOARD

Re: Updated Format and changes to the 2008 open

We are please to invite family and friends to the 4th edition of the Green Mountain Open. The board decided on May 5th to expand the 2008 event to make it bigger and hopefully better. This year’s tournament will include (a few) drinks and appetizers in the clubhouse after the first day of play as well as our first cash price. The board is also extremely proud to present the $350 cash price to the winner of this prestigious tournament presented by JEG Design, our first official sponsor. The lowest score will claim the cash price regardless of alma mater and will include an official USGA handicap adjustment if necessary. In other words, if any of our commendable alums try to bring in a ringer and the GMO board suspects foul play we will go straight to an official handicap system.

Furthermore, the board still feels the need to maintain the GMO legacy and will therefore maintain the format of the original tournament and the rules established in 2005. The official GMO victory can only be captured by alumni player and will guarantee the trophy will remain part of our amazing legacy.

Please post committed players ASAP so we can add t-times.

PS: The board will consider rescheduling the event to the weekend of September 7 & 8, but only if 2 or more alumni’s have a conflict for the dates set for August.


Regards,

The board

The 1 to B is a psychological technique that confuses and bewilders your opponents. Perfect for messing with the Swede's head. . . (Remember Swede, the marriage study. . .)

In that case, JEG is not your problem at this year's tournament; I am! But let's bring Jonas back this year; just in case...
5/2008 • 07:12

Fitz, you know as well as I do that you are probably the only one who can really effect my golf game. Since you arent there this year no one can mess up my swing. I also want to point out that my game has never been better but my overall scores have never been worst. In my most recent round I putted 40 times.

5/2008 • 00:09
FITCH

SWEDE- I noticed in the list of players that you included me. Looking back at all the messages the only date I could not make is August 16th. That was option 2 somewhere around the begining of this chain of messages. I am actually angy about the fact that I can not come home and play at that time due to having my daughters first birthday (which I would not miss for the world). As you can see from all this writing I am pretty upset. I was hoping to take the purse this year. It seems The Swede is having a hard time reading english.

5/2008 • 07:04

you are excused. Finding a date, changing date, making everyone happy is mission impossible. We are trying to figure if we should move this event to early Sep plus I need the extra practice. Sorry Fitch aka the Cry babe for not reading EVERYONES trash talk...

5/2008 • 10:35
Fitz

First off, I hate the SWEDE
and B: you are a jerk. You think just because I'm in Italy that I can't revoke a piece of plastic? Oh, I'm make a call and you're out of the country. . . you communist! (Reference back to that night in Boston, with the other Swede, just in case you lost your memory)
Hope JEG and Barry kick you ass. Also, I'm gonna call Shane-O and tell him he is in. Good luck winning this year, how's your swing?
5/2008 • 00:11
Fitch

Fitz-
How could you start your message with first off then go to B??? You should have started off with A then you could have transitioned into B.... or you should have replaced B with secondly.....

-You Angered American who the Swede did not pay attention to and set up the tourney for a date that I could not play due to having my daughters first birthday that I would not miss for the world.

that was a classic line...but i have lost about 30 to 40 pounds since last years event so hopefully i will be a little less stressful on the cart this year.

Gents,

I have booked 5 successive foursomes (ambitious?) starting at 10:30 AM on Saturday August 16 and 9:00 AM Sunday August 17. Since we have some time on our hand we can also add more t-times if we need. Our goal this year should be to make 2008 edition of GMO the biggest ever. A reasonable goal this year should be 30 people and we should consider opening this event up for family and friends. Your thoughts here are appreciated?

Anyway, here is the list of the folks who have committed. Please let me know if you have any family or friends who wants to play (and are willing to commit) or if you are on the list below and cannot make these dates. JEG also talked about making a donation for price money for this year’s GMO (JEG, please correct me if I am wrong here) How about sponsoring an event in the clubhouse on Saturday? I will throw in $100 for drinks and appetizers after the first 18 holes on Saturday.

Committed Players:

1) JEG
2) Eder
3) Eriksson
4) Fitch
5) Bojan
6) Jonas Adler
7) Sully
8) Barry


Anyone know how to get a hold of MORE alum’s? Please spread the WORD….

I am not exactly sure if i am going to be able to make this years event. I am going over seas from May 26 through June 17. I have to go for work, and will be returning at some point this summer. I am not exactly sure when, mostly because I am not sure how long it will take to finish the current project.

I am hoping to be able to make it....and look forward to making it look easy for all of you....with my down right dirty swing!

Gents, I just called LSCCC and AUG 16th & 17th are currently open. I am waiting for the pro to call me back with a final ok. I will book 3 foursomes since I don't think we will get more people.

JEG, Any chance you can post the dates on the front page? Also, do you have access to any email data base? We should send out an invitation ASAP....
5/2008 • 07:08

5/2008 • 04:08
Fitz

Judas, what the hell is going on over there? I leave for 4 months and the traffic on this board looks like everyone is trying to put out fires! You could always try over at Whitehall, not as good of course but still. . . By the way, I will not be wearing pink plaid shorts, the Swede to my idea in year one. How embarassing.

5/2008 • 10:37
Sully

This is what I see. July 12th (Sat) we could do without a problem and then we could do our morning Tee times on Sunday before the couples Tourny at 1PM.
OR Aug 16TH (SAT)we could get our morning gig in so not to cause conflict with the 3PM gig and then Sunday looks clean, nothing on the schedule.
Thoughts/Comments?

Fitzy, what are you wearing?
5/2008 • 14:15
eriksson

yo yo yo
I have booked t-times for 16-17 Aug. July 12 does not work for me personally but if majority can play that date(and someone wants a real chance of winning this year open )please reserve the t-times for that date. Love you all
5/2008 • 08:04

AUG 16th...Lets just book that date. July is out.

They all look pretty booked up. I can check the Okemo side of things if people are interested in that? Or we could just choose a different course if this one doesnt work out. Lets ROCK Bomoseen. We could all sleep on the floor of the Lakehouse!(Like some of us havent been on the Lakehouse floor before)

Gents,

It looks like AUG 22-24 works for most of us. Let's take MR. Giant bugatte advice and set a deadline. Here is the starting line up as of April 24:

1) JEG

3) Eriksson

5) Eder
6) Heim
4/2008 • 09:12

Can't make that weekend unfortunately.

Jonas Adler is in...We are up to 7

4/2008 • 04:56
Fitz

I know we've tried this time and time again, okay only three times, but what about a deadline for signing up? Late comers would be welcomed but a deadline to set up the tee times, etc would be helpful. Am I just being a stick in the mud, who still craves to play amongst GMC's finest golfers? Or just bitter because I can't come?
Thoughts?

4/2008 • 14:11
eriksson

Lets make a decison on the dates. I can do either #2 or #3. We need to set a date so we can start to market this high end event.

In so far

I would like to play this year. As of right now the only thing stopping me would be another baby. However August is less than 9 months away so I am clear.
I just can not make option 2.

2/2008 • 04:19
Fitz

Well, in 2025 my son will be playing in the GMO, and probably be able, at 17, to defeat all of us on the course. Marsha gave birth on Wed. the 27th to Jameson McGregor, 7lbs 5oz and 20 inches. Both Mom and baby are great.

JEG and Sully,
I have initiated my plan to keep the Swede from winning the event this year. As you can see below, he is begining to get flustered already. If either of you will shoot 84, 82, (83, if 3-day event) you will win.
2/2008 • 16:21
eriksson

sure
2/2008 • 11:09
Fitz

I'll put $20 on JEG to win. . . any takers?
2/2008 • 10:20
eriksson

FITZ,

I agree, an average of 83 will most likely win. However, the only one who can really mess me up mentally is not playing this year.
FYI - I have started a practice regime around the 4th OPEN...I like my chances PUTZ

2/2008 • 08:24

JEG,
Can you please post the date for the 4th GMO on the front page? I think you have to make it BIG tho

2/2008 • 08:21

BoyZ,

My grammar and overall linguistic skills are completely gonzo, both the English and Swedish vocabulary is being erased. I have become a man without a language(s) like (X)% of this country. I AM LOSING IT....or maybe my Swenglish gets downloaded prior to me posting the message on the site.....

I am currently looking for a cushy job Government job (Swedish or English) so I will have UNLIMITED time to reflect over what write on this FANTASTIC website.

Fitch - I booked a trip down to Pinehurst for a weekend of golf...sorry for the confusion..

Fitz, I know you are celebrating the Chinese New Year...Congratulations, yet another year and yet another animal fitting your personality.

2/2008 • 05:15

Has anyone else noticed that the Swede's english is getting worse the longer he stays here?

Hey Swede, I met a guy from Coppenhagen last week and he claims that Swedes are the big, angry brother of the Scandanavian Countries, who get enjoyment out of picking on Danes and Norwegians! I have thought about it and think I agree! Happy Festivus!

Fitz/ Vespa boy,

Why are you so angry? You have been MAD ever since you made the revelation about something something ending once you made a certain commitment. You know what I am talking about…. and you might be right but don’t get so emotionally detached.
10/2007 • 12:54

You are lucky that committment didn't respond to your comment. . .

10/2007 • 11:22
I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and dog' gonnit, people like me

Why all the hate? I mean honestly, what is this all about? Me abandoning you guys for the next 3-5years? Me kicking your assess for the past 3 years? Or just the simple fact that your mothers didn't breast feed you when you were babies? Come on guys, let's talk about it. . . . you 'mos
10/2007 • 11:30
Fitz

You know what I'm talking about. You are the main problem. Yes, you are causing a problem. I know that YOU find that hard to believe, but for the rest of us it is "par for the course" (which by the way, I don't think you've ever done!)

Swede,
I've told you ten times to email me at my yahoo account and you still won't.
Let me explain how this works. When you change places of employment, your office email address does not follow you to your new place of employment. Thus, please send me an email to my yahoo account, or give me your new email adddress.

10) 4th annual GMO will be without a player without blow up holes
9) 4th annual GMO will be without a player who can totally mess up your swing (MTF BTW)
8) 4th annual GMO will be without a player with Pointless arguments
7) 4th annual GMO will be without a player with Pointless agreements
6) 4th annual GMO will be without a player with a 350 yards straight drives, when it does not count.
5) 4th annual GMO will be without a player being furthest from the hole and still winning the hole.
4) 4th annual GMO will be without a player who cannot play with money on the line
4) 4th annual GMO will be without a player who laughs at bad jokes
3) 4th annual GMO contestants will not have a 3-time champ to beat
2) 4th annual GMO contestants will not have a 300-pound MAN to spoon
1) 4th annual GMO contestants will not have a 300-pound MAN to make you look skinny in pictures

Great list if you like repetition, fat jokes, and are a person that can't concentrate on their own game.

Can someone please see if the combined score for Damien, Dutch Boy, and myself out-scored the rest of the group...it would be a miracle if we didnt!

8/2007 • 12:33
Very close. . .

If my calculations are correct, I think JEG and Christoffer only lost by 2 total strokes. 1 on Sat and 1 on Sunday, both scores adjusted on both days.

Day one score: 89 - 67.3(course rating), multiply that by 113, divide that by 118 (Slope), multiply that by .96 and you get your handicap for the day. It is five strokes higher than my handicap, they get five strokes that day.

Sunday score: 90, their handicap is 20 for the day, mine was 19, they get one stroke.

It was the closest finish in GMO History! Great job boys.
8/2007 • 17:20
damien

excuse me, but i shot a 143 day one, ok? 143!
8/2007 • 12:35
That is a great formula. . .

One problem, if you plug damien's 146 into that formula, his handicap is a 74! Dude, his handicap is higher than par on the course!

8/2007 • 12:23
FITZ

Hold on Hold on! Now that I am back to work, I have the formula to see exactly what the placements were. I'll get back to you shortly with the results.

8/2007 • 10:19

Well boys, I see the posts are flying. JEG, I have the photos 191! I'm editing some for quality and will be hopefully getting them out to you tues or Weds.

Thanks to all who showed. To all that didn't you missed another great year. Some good golf, some bad golf, but all had a great time!


8/2007 • 09:27
eriksson

First of, thank you all for participating. A fantastic turnout this year and wow for a newly established tournament we sure have many highlights. Plus a kick @$$ website....

This 3rd annual GMO became exactly everything Fitz and I was hoping for when we first started to play with the idea of a golf tournament. We certainly hope you all enjoy these two days as much we do. Before mentioning this years HIGHLIGHT, I wanted to point out we added some new faces and some new VERY high scores. I have to point out that the Hacker of the Year award is almost as prestigious as winning the open itself - shooting a 71 on the front 9 nine is a true accomplishment. If we actually add a swing stat to the GMO, the Hacker of the year has an astonishing 550 plus swings over 2 days including putts of course (142 strokes per day + 142 practice swings per day) in competition is AMAZING.

We were also all part of some fantastic jokes this weekend, in one way or the other. One joke many of us missed was between Bojan and Barry on the 14th hole. Bojan: " I though my golf cart had it rough with Heim in it", watching Fitz and myself barely making it up the steep cart path.

Still the highlight of 2007 GMO was when Johnny (aka Mr.Brown) hit the hole in one on the 8th hole. Never have so many of us GMC alums together witnessed such a smooth and perfect swing yielding the ultimate reward in golf, a hole in one. And never have so many of us GMC alums together missed the ultimate joke as when the lady on the 2nd t-box comes running screaming " holy shiiiitttt did the UPS guy just hit a hole in one.....?" Who is better then you Jon?

see ya in 08'
