Hey Everyone,
This pool was run on paper in years past back in Maine/New Hampshire where I'm from. This is the first year its been put online, which will hopefully increase the amount of entries quite a bit. Along with starting it up online we want to make sure our system is working properly, so before we get into the majors where real money is on the line, we're offering a free entry into this weekends Arnold Palmer Invitational. The winner will receive a free entry into the Masters pool.
The pool itself is a tiered selection pool. These tiers are determined by current world ranking. You simply select one golfer from each of 5 tiers. For scoring, you receive the number of strokes your chosen golfer’s get on the course. Golfer's who miss the cut will be given the worst score of the day +1, so it’s pretty imperative to get your 5 guys through if you want to win. Just like on the course, the lowest score wins. Pretty simple.
So, if you’re interested, go here:
Arnold Palmer Invitational Form
And fill out a form. Forms are due by 11:59PM on March 16th.
This free pool is a precursor to our pools for each of the 4 majors. Each major we payout winners (based on number of entries), but alongside that we do a cumulative pool of all 4 majors. We call it the Grand Slam Challenge (GSC). It's an extra $20. In previous years the GSC was winner take all, but that may change if we get a large number of entries this year. So if you do decide to enter the Grand Slam Challenge, you're looking at a $60 total investment ($10 each of 4 majors, $20 GSC).
If you like the idea of the pool, I encourage you to invite anyone you know who may be interested. You can simply send them the link if you'd like. Bigger fields = bigger payouts. Again, this week is free, so there is zero risk in entering.
Hope to see your entry!
