KFE

I would like to add a prize to the contest.

If the winner is in my area (Upstate South Carolina) before October I will treat them to a round at one of the local top courses. Some choices include

The Walker course (Clemson University) cityofclemson.org

Cateechee GC
cateechee.com

University of Georgia, Athens
busfin.uga.edu

There are many others but I know these three are in great shape right now. The Walker course at Clemson has completed extensive renovations (course is not old, just needed some refinements) and has become one of my favorite layouts.

I will save someone the embarrassment of not picking Tiger and eliminate him from the contest except for winning score

lol

I offer a round at the Allister MacKenzie course in Ann Arbor MI, or a choice from my three favs in the Detroit area.

I will pick later. Thx KFE.

Ken,

I'll throw in a round, if the winner can travel to the Tampa, FL area, at Pine Barrons at World Woods. This is always rated within the top 20 of Golf Magazines "Top 100 Courses you can play", I think it's currently number 10. #1 rated practice facility in the country. Waste bunkers line most fairways, some are 200 yards long and 30 feet deep. It's a fun course to play that always offers choices of safe or go for it shots.

Of course I will trade all six of these dudes for one share of Tiger at .75 Thats right, I will take Tiger at 3/4 of his score over the whole field, lol.

Have a good one.
