2012 - 2013 Bad Ace Travelling Winter Handicap Series
 

It's Back and it's better than ever!

This year we will be adding some new features:
-You may opt to have any rounds PDGA Rated!!!
-Optional $1 Cash CTP Pot, Optional $5 Raw Score Bet (winner takes all) Optional $1 per round rolling Ace Pot.
-There will be a $50 Huk Lab Gift Certificate CTP at every event on the shortest hole.
-Sick Metal Trophies and a Finale' Players Party at Dave Heiders Disc Golf Paradise.

Entry Fees are going up to $40 for the entire series due at your first event, unless you make PRIOR other arrangements with me directly. 75 player limit so dont delay. We had 48 last year and this year I expect to grow based on feedback and word of mouth. All Cash in gets paid out minus very nominal costs like Trophies and Players Party Food. We are doing away with Bag Tags this year as there are other Bag Tag's available through your local clubs.

Format: 10 One day events every other Saturday at 10 different courses. Each Round is adjusted with your handicap, and then you are given 1 point for every participant you beat that round, including the no-shows. After both rounds are complete you total you points and that is 1 of your 10 possible scores. The best 6 day point totals count towards your Series total; translated = you can miss up to 4 events and still dominate.

Handicap: Your handicap that is posted after your most current round is completed will be your handicap for the next round. In order to compute your handicap, the following formula is used....
(Previous Handicap + Current Distance From Par+Group Average Distance From Par)/3 = Next Rounds Handicap. If a player has a larger handicap than the group average then they will not use the group average and instead double weight there Previous Handicap so as to not penalize lessor experienced players.Examples:

Player A - Solid Advanced/ Pro Player
Player A has a Handicap of +5.5 (has to add 5.5 strokes)
Player A shoots a 51 on a Par 54 = +3 for Current Distance From Par
Player A's current round is scored as a 51+5.5 = Adjusted round of 56.5
Groups Average Distance From Par is a 58 on a par 54 = -4Player A's New handicap is (5.5+3-4)/3= +2.16

Player B - Lower Advanced/ Upper Intermediate Player
Player B has a Handicap of -6 (has to subtract 6 strokes)
Player B shoots a 59 on a Par 54 = -5 for Current Distance From Par
Player B's current round is scored as a 59-6 = Adjusted round of 53
Groups Average Distance From Par is a 58 on a par 54 = -4
New handicap is (-6-5-4)/3= -5

Player C - Intermediate/ Female / Novice
Player C has a Handicap of -15 (has to subtract 15 strokes)
Player C shoots a 72 on a Par 54 = -18 for Current Distance From Par
Player C's current round is scored as a 72-15 = Adjusted round of 57
Groups Average Distance From Par is a 58 on a par 54 = -4
New handicap is (-15-18-15)/3= -16

Please feel free to ask me if you have any questions and I can explain this better.

Pretty much everything on this list is freakin awesome. I'm excited!

Looking forward to this!! Hope I can make every one!

Huk Lab has decided to sponsor the Bad Ace this year
 

We will now be having $50 Huk Lab CTP's, 1 at each event on the shortest hole at all 10 events. Huge Thanks to Jay! :yay:

I have never been so excited for the sun to go away so we can play some winter golf!

that's freaking awesome Carl!! You are the man! Best Bad Ace EVER?! I am thinking so. Thanks to Jay and Huk Lab!!!!!!! :bowing:

this needs reiteration. It's that cool.

full yet?

Current Registration!
 

Here is the current Registration list 40 players total. I know of more players but since we are capping this at 75, I am being fair and not putting buddies who have not confirmed with me directly. Again if you are gonna play you need to RSVP this year, and show up at the first event October 27th with Cash in Hand $40! If you cannot make it to the first event, then you need to send your money with someone who is coming or I will give your spot away to whomever is on the waitlist with cash in hand. If you dont know anyone who is coming becasue you are a lone wolf and your wolf pack consists of one, then you need to get ahold of me and make other arrangements, such as paypal, check in the mail, gold bullion burried in my back yard, vouchers for space travel, or First Run Bosses! Thank you come again! This year is going to be the SHIZZZ, I am super stoked, there should eb so much side action that even if you dont cash you should come away with atleast one awesome payday!
