This year is the first year I have been able to try to enter the Georgia State Golf Ass(ociation)'s Senior Championship, as it is held on a Wed, Thurs, and Friday, and I had to get one of my vacation weeks to coincide. Not easy when you have to request Annual Leave the previous December. :horse1:
Anyway, I'm not going to make the field, as it is the low handicap 144 entries, and with another 10 hours to go, there are already 170 entries.
Just for laughs, I looked up the handicaps of 30 randomly picked entries, and none were higher than a -2. Wow. I'm at a -9.3 right now, so obviously, no chance of even getting to play.
Funny, though, I looked at last years' scores, and while the winner, after 54 holes, was at +1, the 36 hole cut (to 72 players and ties) was +13 and the last place was at +29 after 54 holes. Granted, the GSGA sometimes sets up their courses like it was the US Open, but, those high scores don't look like real -2 handicappers to me.
Crap. Since I already have the week off, I guess I'll just go to Pinehurst.
