Hi all, good to see everyone is keeping up the posts. Sorry I missed entry in the US Open pool. Has anyone ever been to a Dave Pelz short game school or clinic? I have hit the ball as well as I ever have this year, but haven't scored at all! From 100 yards and in, I STINK!!!! Pelz's group will be in my area in August, and I think I was able to get in. Haven't had final confirmation yet. Anyone?? Thanks, alan w

TH: At my club, we use 1/2 of player's handicap. Thus the flags start to get planted on the 8th and 9th holes, with the winner usually getting to the 11th fairway. This avoids the need to go beyond 18 holes to complete the tournament. We have a vocal group of gals(No, make that women), who objected to having their afternoon tee times messed up by the guys playing the 1st hole again because of some "silly flag game". Using only 50% of the handicap might make it easier to sell to the public pro. Best wishes, Bob
