J-Town Forum

I like bosses and have for some time. Don't have one in my bag currently, but I'm sure that will change.

I don't see as many league players with bosses as you might think.

I am very pleased to be able to offer live coverage of the 2010 Vibram Open on my website! Just follow the link off the front page of my website at www.acesandchains.com.

It is currently clipping a bit on the right, but that is only affecting the chat box and one of the ads. Video box is fully visible and should be fine. I am working with Vibram to see if there is a solution. If need be, when the video starts playing, you can put your cursor over the video box and select "full" to make the video full screen.

If anyone has any other problems with the feed, please let me know. This is very experimental both on my part, and on Vibrams. I am excited to see how it works out.

Fantastic job on the tournament guys! The players pack was impressive as was the course. I had a great time, and just wanted to say thanks.

Hole 5 CTP (Gateway) winner was John Knutson Sr. in my group.

I believe this has to do with the Pros actually playing Highland first while the Ams played Westpark first. When I initially put up the scores, this was not taken into consideration. After correcting the course layouts to show that Westpark is 25 holes, and that the Pros played Highland first while the Ams played Westpark first, the Ams ratings went down.

This should only be true for the rounds on Sunday.

I'm no ratings expert, but I did expect a drop in ratings for the Ams once I corrected the course layouts. It makes sense. Prior to the correction, you were probably being compared to the highest rated Pro to determine ratings. Afterward, you were probably compared to the highest rated Am.

At least, that's my take on it. But again, I'm no expert on ratings.

By the way, you still have the best rated round in the AMs at 981 for your -2 round at Highland. (Great round!)

Results are up.

Ace fund has been carried over from Chain Reaction:

Approx. $80 in the ace fund for Saturday
Approx. $100 in the ace fund for Sunday

The ace fund will not be carried over after Deuces Wild. If no one hits an ace, we will have a CTP playoff for the cash each day. Just to be clear, Saturdays (Jr, Rec, Adv) ace fund is a separate fund from Sundays (Nov, Int, Pro).

Great weekend to be a J-town club member! (ie: Don't forget about the J-town invitational on Friday!) 3 days of tournaments in one weekend......

That is correct. Pros play blue tees at Highland, longs at Westpark.

Adv (and all other Ams) play white tees at Highland, and short tees at Westpark.

I had considered making the Adv. division play the blue and the longs, but I thought that went a little contrary to the theme of the tournament. And, it's less confusing if all the Ams play from the same tees.

Thanks for asking though. Hopefully that clears it up for everyone.
