Art's Answer
In addition to my e/m just sent -----
Hey there - I'm still negotiating w/ the PRO on the fees ----
I'll get out some kind of entry/info form in a few days ----
At this point, all that is definite is that we're gonna play at Babe Zaharias Golf Club - just around the corner from the
Hampton Inn where Veeg set up the party,etc.
Also, definite is that I asked Veeg if we could have a KEG on his patio that day --- His hacienda is on the 16th
fairway, and he was Cool with that idea ! ! ! !
Everyone can stop by and grab a quick brew as we drive by --- CAN'T STOP, THO , cause it's Saturday and the
course will be crawling w/ peeps - so we can't slow up play or we'll get cussed at --- OH NO ! ! ! !
I hope it's not the 1st time some of the BRO's have been cussed at on a golf course ---- OH NO ! ! ! !
Then we leave and head to BMT to Willie's Place for chow and watching the game --- Hope they give us something
worth watching ! ! ! !
STAY TUNED ---------------------------------------------------

More that Art added
I ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE ALL ENTRIES BY SEPT 30 - AS VEEG MENTIONED IN THE LETTER - GONNA HAVE
TO TELL THE PRO HOW MANY CARTS WE WILL NEED ! ! ! !
WE REALLY NEED A MINIMUM OF 6-8 TEAMS ( I'M HOPING FOR A LOT MORE THAN THAT ) TO MAKE IT
WORTH THE EFFORT ---
DON'T YA THINK ???? I'VE RUN HUNDRED'S OF TOURNEYS WITH UP TO 350 PLAYERS , SO I KNOW IT CAN
BE A PAIN IN THE ANATOMY, LARGE OR SMALL, IF IT'S NOT ORGANIZED -----
I'M THINKING PRO WILL CHG. $25-30 FOR GREEN FEE & CART - BUT I'LL VERIFY ---
SO IF WE HAD A $50 TO $75 TOTAL ENTRY FEE ( WHICH INCLUDES GR.FEE & CART) -WE COULD HAVE A
PRETTY GOOD WINNERS POT -
SAY 50%, 30%, 20% FOR 1ST, 2ND, & 3RD PLACE WINNERS ------
WHAT DO YA THINK ABOUT THOSE #'S ----- i DON'T WANT TO SCARE ANYBODY - BUT - THAT'S NOT TOO
BAD, IN MY OPINION ???????

Can you tell me what format this tournament will be? I suppose it will depend on the number that sign
up. How far is Munroe's from the golf course and Hampton Inn?

I'm gonna let the bro's make up their own teams, if possible ---- I don't want to mess with worrying about handicaps
-- I just don't want a team to have all A players --- or it wouldn't be too fair ---------------------------
It's about 10 miles from "The Babe" to Willies Place - he's about 2-3 miles N of LU stadium on MLK Blvd. in Bmt ---
Not bad at all ! ! !

Enclosed you will find my entry form.
Hey, Art,
Several years ago I played in a scramble, but I don't think it was a Florida scrabble. I don't know what it
was called, but I think it was a four ball scramble. If I understand the rules correctly, the man who
makes the best shot has to drop out for the next shot. Doesn't sound like fun to me. If I ever did hit the
best shot, I would want to hit another. I know it is supposed to even things up, but who cares. Let's let
everyone hit.
By the way, do you have a PayPal account? I could pay you through that, otherwise I'll send a check
next week.
Don Henderson

ART'S REPLY
Hey there Bro Don :
Don't worry about the term "Florida" -- I frankly don't even know where it originated -----
Just call it "SCRAMBLE" ---
The game --- ( IF WE EVEN PLAY AT ALL - 'CAUSE I'M NOT GETTING ANY RESPONSE) ---- as the Entry indicates
is a 4 man team format - supposedly ABCD handicap types --- BUT most golfers USUALLY "FUDGE" ( THAT'S A
NICE WORD FOR LYING) - SO CHALK IT UP FOR A FUN THING & DON'T GET NERVOUS ABOUT HANDICAPS ---
If anyone needs a $20 (prize money) I'll give it to them, but hopefully they won't "fudge" for a lousy $20 ----
After all, this ain't THE MASTERS or THE U.S. OPEN ! ! ! !
The deal is - All players hit a Drive --- then the team all hit from the best drive, & best 2nd shot, & best 3rd shot, etc
! !
NO DROPPING OUT - EVERYONE PLAYS & HITS ------- ( And we, then, all laugh or celebrate or moan, as the case
may be )
HOLD YOUR CHECK --- DO NOT SEND ---- I'LL COLLECT LATER ! ! ! !
BECAUSE IF WE DON'T GET AT LEAST 4 OR 5 TEAMS --- IT WON'T BE WORTH THE EFFORT ! ! ! ! !
WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN A WEEK OR SO ---------
