It would seem to me that the WA needs to follow the Golf Associations age grouping guidelines. In most, if not all group age 54 and younger together. It would certainly help out in more evenly ditributing players in flights.

Dont know what the numbers would crunch down to in actual ages but it would be interesting to see what the break up at ages 55 – 65 – 75 would look like
If you also look at the Hcp break down the younger guys have quite a difference between the high and low, while in the older flights many many of the flight only have difference of .7 or less
The interesting flight is #19 where the low hcp is 19.2 while the high is 169.7 WOW hoping I dont get paired with that guy, it would be a long long day. Thinking if they took a max 9 on every hole they still would be 7 under par nett. LOL

August 21, 2022 at 6:33 pm #51335Billy BurwickParticipantHarry I’m in that group and I don’t see anyone over 36 in 19.
I didn’t think you could have a handicap that high.

August 21, 2022 at 7:16 pm #51337Darryl JOHNSONParticipantHarry, good thing that 169.7 guy isn’t in the Just for Fun flight. They’re playing each day at 9,999 yards. Yikes!
August 21, 2022 at 7:25 pm #51339Harry (The Hack) RadleyParticipantLOL LOL Now we are having fun
