I believe the app won’t be up until Monday. I could be wrong. I am known to be wrong once or twice a year and so far it’s only once this year.
Mike CheesemanParticipantWho’s going to know on the other ranges if you are playing there or not.

When tee times come out on Tuesday try to get in touch with someone at the back of the pack to collect. Just a thought.
Mike CheesemanParticipant52 to a flight. Foursomes so that is 13 tee times. Depends how they spread them out. If they are 7 minutes apart then that is a hour and a half.
Mike CheesemanParticipantI am not in your flight but here is my 2 cents. If anyone doesn’t get in for the whole week and doesn’t get in the first day then decides to get in the second day because there is a carry over from day one shouldn’t be allowed in if there is a carryover. Very unlikely there will be a carryover but if there is then sorry you can’t get in. It protects all the other guys that got in. Just my 2 cents worth. Good luck.
