I think we do the first one 

 

pretty sure it's been the first one. We never wanted to do the smaller fields, especially years where we had 10+  people in the league.

I say we do 50 and draft a 10 person team for the playoffs. 

take best 3 scores from each event, 2 from the Tour championship - if you don't have 2 guys make the 30 person final, YER OUT!

Totally in for that. Start a thread so we can hash out all the details and get it going. Might need to get a jump start this weekend since we’d have two drafts going at once.

I have to share something really cool with my EdEx Golf Geek Club buddies.  Go look at the current PGA Tour Leaderboard.  Currently at T10 is Blake McShea a late qualifier.

Well I met Blake, or as we called him "Lunch Money" 10 years ago when he was like 13.   Every Saturday and Sunday morning at 10:00am we had the Dog Fighters show up at the local course.  Anywhere from 20 to 30 golfers would show up, the A players drafted teams of four and we all chipped in 10 bucks a piece and played golf for money.  Lunch Money would show up and want to play and we let him, dude was 13 or 14 and was a B player.  He could GO back then at that age.  He went on to play college golf at UNCW but is hitting his stride now.  

Focking "Lunch Money" is T10 at the Wyndham.  A current member at my local po-dunk golf course is his caddie.  It's amazing.

ETA:  We called him Lunch Money because he was a kid (back then) who loved to gamble so we used to ask him "I bet you take the kids in your school's lunch money".  Or "Where did you get that 10 bucks, is that your lunch money?"  :lol:

I knew this seemed weird. Why are we using the St Jood?  I'm out

It would be silly to do the BMW. We'd basically be drafting the whole field and if I recall there is no cut in that event either.

70 people - we draft 60 - Right - no cut. that is why it is fine.. it is all focking luck, just like fantasy football and texas holdem

I think what happened here is the PGA schedule change. For years, the BMW was the first playoff event, but due to the downsizing of the WGC events, they gave it to St Jude

I always remember it being the northern trust which became the st Jude last year I think. 
 

there were years we had 12 drafters. More golfers than the field Of the 2nd event has. Fairly certain we used to Do the first event it’s just switched sponsors so many times. 
 

Barclays - Northern Trust - St Jude
