Who's up for a GolfBuzz event in Phoenix this year?!!
September 9th - 11th, 2021
After a COVID-muted 2020 event, it looks hopeful that fall of 2021 will be a return to normal. We should also look into improved ways to integrate virtual participation. Let those idea fly. There is no substitute for gathering in the desert though!
For those unfamiliar, here is what is in store:
- Morning competition rounds. 2-person best ball for the most part, with 9 holes of mano y mano match play mixed in.
- Afternoon rounds (optional) of any games people want to play, usually involving a few drinks.
- Great courses at pre-winter rates
- Banter with other GolfBuzzers
- WITB in real life!
All competition events with a two-person team will be played with 75% of your handicap. Singles play will be 100% handicap.
