Franks and Beans - Formerly Gibby and Grimes Handicap League

[xgibbyx]

Frank's and Bean's Tuesday Night Handicap League

(Handicap - Singles League)

Start date:  APRIL 2nd, 2013 and will be the same schedule and course as the doubles league, just the night before doubles. (See Doubles Schedule on front page).

Entry fee ($5); optional Ace ($1); optional PDGA sanction ($1); CTPs (2 or 3 CTPs @ $2 each). CTPs will be designated as Prize Fund & Club Enhancements. 

The payout will be the top 30% with a minimum of $5 for last cash.  $0.50 from each entry fee will pay the hot round of the day.

Players will still have the option of playing leagues as a PDGA Sanctioned event.  They will receive official ratings and points.

Handling of non-rated players:  If you do not have a PDGA rating, your first 3 rounds at the handicap leagues will be free to establish your handicap.  You will only be allowed to participate in the Ace Fund, CTPs, and Bag Tags (Bag Tags will be determined on the scratch score). 

Another option to acquire your handicap: if a club officer is willing to play those three rounds outside of league night, they will "sign off" that your scores are valid to use to develop your 3 round minimum for getting your "handicap". After you accumulate more rounds, your rating will be taken from your last 5 rounds.

Frank Grimes, Rob Gibson, and Dean Bingham will be running Handicap League. Jason Poole will be handling the PDGA sanctioning and results.

Gibby and Grimes Tuesday Night Handicap League

(Handicap - Singles League)

Start date:  Tentative start is April 9th, 2013 and will be the same schedule and course as the doubles league, just the night before doubles. (See Doubles Schedule on front page). I will update after I confirm with Jason that we are set with the PDGA sanctioning.

Good job Gibby! Only another month & the summer season starts. In past years handicap has not started with Shorewood, as doubles does. I'm neutral, it's your call.

No real reason other than I wanted to be sure we were ready with the PDGA - I put TENTATIVE, so we may indeed start the week prior (April 2nd)

Doesn't really matter, just antsy to get on with the whole spring/summer disc golf thang...

Thanks, my brutha!!

[krupicka]

The reality is there is not enough daylight moving it much earlier.

[Mcfrolfer]

Gibby and Grimes! Awesome! I'll be there. =)

[xgibbyx]

After talking to Jason, the name has to stay at Frank's and Bean's due to the perpetual trophy system they have negotiated for JTown. No biggie; Frank and Dean are still involved and it's still an awesome day disc golfing!

Want to also confirm that Handicap League will indeed start on April 2nd, 2013.

[Flynnstone]

Is it possible if an official can post a couple scheduled rounds before then. This way it will be easier to set something up. Just a thought.

[blackandwhite]

there is one on the left side of the screen under the leagues headline if thats what you mean

Yes, the left side of the message board, like black & white posted. Titled leagues, then under that , spring/summer, & then handicap. That starts 4/2, at the round barn.

I believe he is refering t o doing s couple of rounds with an official to establish his handicap prior to leagues.

Is that what you mean, Mike F.? I will talk to some of the officers and see if they will allow bag tags results from Aaron to be used. There might be a stipulation that you have to play on the same card as either me, Aaron, or Dean...or just Dean, but I will ask.

[Flynnstone]

Yeah that is what I am referring to. This way I don't have to wait to first 3 weeks of leagues.
