What is WAGG? Like many of you retired guys, I like to play golf. I'd love to play several times a week, but I'd be happy if I could play even once-a-week. The problem is, the guys I play with can't always play every week. Someone always has a doctor's appointment or is on vacation. I figured, if we had a larger group of guys to pull from, then we'd be guaranteed that someone would be available to play every week. It might be one foursome, or it might end up being several foursomes. Either way, there would be enough guys showing up every week to guarantee that whomever showed up would get to play! That's how I came up with the idea of "WAGG." What does it cost to join WAGG? Absolutely nothing! All you have to pay for is your greens fee (and cart, if you want one) each time you play. There are no "dues," no "initiation fees," etc. It's all "pay-as-you-play." Couldn't be simpler, huh? How many holes will we play? I'm guessing most guys will want to play 18 holes, but if you only wanted to play 9 holes, that would be up to you. You can always bail out after playing 9. Which day will we play? What time? This season, WEDNESDAY is the day we're going to be playing each week. What time? That depends on two things. (1) How many guys want to play, and (2) which course has available tee times. Right now, we're thinking of around a 9:30 or 10:00 start time for the first foursome. It will vary from week to week. Where will we play? We could play at pretty much any course, but we'll probably stick to the "west-side" courses (since that's where most of us live). I'm looking at courses like Twin Hills, Deerfield, Salmon Creek, Churchville, Cardinal Creek, Lakeshore, Braemar, Ozzie's Corner, Harbour Pointe, Ricci Meadows, etc., etc. (Of course, we'll always keep our eyes open for "senior rates.") Once in a while, we might play on an "eastside" course. (For example, last season we played at Crooked Pines near Macedon three times!) Your suggestions for where to play are always welcome. Hey, it's your group! How will you know how many guys want to play each week? Each week (probably by Saturday), I'll send everyone an email asking "Are you going to be playing this week?" If you are planning on playing the coming Wednesday, you'll need to send me an email by MONDAY of that week. Once I tally up how many guys want to play, I'll start calling area courses to find one that will accommodate our group that week. Then I'll email everyone back with the course we'll be playing and our starting time. Simple, huh? Do you have to be a good golfer to join? No way! I'm an average golfer (on a good day). This is just for fun, that's all! If you don't even want to keep score, that's up to you! In fact, if you are a good golfer, this group might not be for you. You might get bored playing with us "average guys." Is this a "league"? Nope. You never know how many guys will be playing on any given Wednesday. When we all get there, we'll just divide ourselves up into foursomes, and start playing. Why would I want to join WAGG? Several reasons...
