Ridge Ferry Open IV

[Mike D]

If we hold it .... Who will come??

[richardhead]

Hold it.....yeah there......no wait.........oh yeah........I will come.

[keith johnson]

Or if you talked with Keith, he could run it as a 2 day C-Tier paying better than a B-tier, keeping the name alive as he did with the Lake Russell Open.

I never got a return call Mike, but let me know how you wish to go forward.
I'm happy to run it or to use Deerlick if you run The Ridge next year.

[SlingShot]

I will be there Mike. Great event last time.

[VERMIN]

Perhaps Mike & Keith can run it together while holding hands and sipping smoothies

If we hold it .... Who will come??

Everyone dude, everyone

[Ken Climo]

What are the dates? I would like to place this tourney on my schedule

[Mike D]

IF I run it, the dates would most likely be May 16, & May 17, 2009.

This puts it the weekend AFTER Mothers day and the weekend BEFORE Memorial day.

[mr.disc]

one day on a sunday!

[Redan Randy]

one day on a sunday!

Kiyetay Cavrone!! You may correct my spelling.

[Funky Bobby J]

one day on a sunday!

RFO 1 DAY = WEAK, INVALID, SCHULE - this is a 2-day trek in the beautiful surroundings of Rome GA. I do not care who runs it - Mike D and/or Keith can do a bang-up job to be sure. But this is one locale that warrants 2 days.
...so go have a McFlurry LEMON-PARTY with all your 1-day tournament-loving buddies in the schule

[mr.disc]

Has anyone been in touch with Rome Parks/Recreation? Last couple of times I've passed by Ridge Ferry it looked as if holes 13-18 were all missing; except for 17 which I guess they forgot was on the bank.

[djester]

good eye.... they are missing. And it's hard to find you way around the course if you've never played (like me). I had a great time playing my own golf holes out there, but it would have been really nice if I'd played the right layout. The *map* doesn't help at all... it looks like most of the holes have been moved or altered. I didn't like driving an hour and 20 minutes to play 13 holes.... I almost had flashbacks of Sandy Creek

I've gone to RF 2X and each time baskets were missing. I have a vanload of people who would like to play RF at a somewhat cheap tournament - just to make sure that all the baskets are there.
This is just a request to have this tournament so we could spend a weekend up in rome throwing our arms out.

[Mike D]

Corey,

There will be NO Ridge Ferry Open tournament this year or ever again probably.

The Park & Rec department up there wants too much money to hold an event ($1,000.00 for the weekend).

The park itself has sorta been let go since I don't help out there anymore.

If you want to throw your arms out, come out to White Oak Park!! Only about a 40 minute drive from Ridge Ferry!!


Later,

Mike D
