The Dallas Holiday Classic: Friday

By Adam Kramer | December 10th, 2011

We made it to Volcanos in Hurst, Texas for Power Events’ 2011 Dallas Holiday Classic.

The bar is massive, beer is a flowin’, and tonight should be outstanding. The handicap tournament gets underway at 7:00, and GT will be played late into the evening. The actual Classic gets underway tomorrow at noon and we will be live-blogging qualifying scores and matches after.

For details on how the weekend will shape up, check out the details here.

Stay tuned and be sure to join us for a brew if you’re in the area.

Cheers,

Wisconsin Open: Friday Night

By Adam Kramer | March 18th, 2011

Friday: 5:59 PM

Cheese. Beer. Basketball.

It’s Friday night, we just made the hour or so trek north, and still have plenty o’ basketball games to take in. While there is a CTTP tournament tonight (which we will provide results for, of course), this evening is all about playing some games, watching some games and having a good time.

We won’t fire off a disclaimer message on our posts or Tweets quite yet, but there will be suds. Oh, there will be suds. Qualifier gets underway Saturday morning at noon…

Cheers,

And We’re Off to The TOC

By Adam Kramer | October 22nd, 2010

Friday – 11: 42 AM

We’re packed and ready roll. The Golden Tee/Silver Strike crew is bringing up a truckload of swag, (GT/SSB goodies), and are ready to embark on the hour-or-so trek up to Wisconsin. It’s time for Club Lucky’s Tournament of Champions, and we are excited for the two biggest trackball tournaments of the year to get underway.

The sight you see above is the outer sign at the beautiful and luxurious Grand Geneva Resort and Spa in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Soon, this hotel will be filled with about 120 fans and players of both games and the festivities will be in full swing

The Golden Tee Blog, aka right here, will be busy throughout this tournament weekend, giving you updates and photos from the event, letting you know who’s doing what. You can also check us out on both the Facebook and Twitter pages for GT and SSB.

Alright, these t-shirts won’t pack themselves. Time to get to work. We will catch up with you once we cross enemy lines the border.

Welcome to the PCC

By Adam Kramer | August 25th, 2010

Wednesday, August 25th: 4:07 PM

The sight above (apologies for the lack o’ quality from the camera phone) comes straight from Splinters Sports Pub in Palatine and is the Players Charity Championship taking shape. By taking shape, I mean there is still @#$% everywhere, but the games are in and boys are hard at work getting everything ready for this monster weekend. By tomorrow (aka Thursday) these games will be filled with early travelers starting their weekend off early with a little Tee.

From someone who will be logging PLENTY of hours inside Splinters over the next 96 hours, I couldn’t be more excited. This weekend isn’t just one of the largest and most competitive Golden Tee tournaments of the year, it’s also a celebration for a fantastic cause.

Thus far, close to $70,000 has been raised towards Salute and the GT community has kicked the fundraising into high gear the past few weeks. Now, it’s time to celebrate the charity, the hard work, and Golden Tee in a jam-packed weekend.

If you can’t make it out to Splinters at any point throughout the event, have no fear. We, and more specifically I, plan to cover any and all PCC action right here on the Golden Tee Blog as well as the Facebook and Twitter pages. What can I say? We like our social media…

We’ll have golf outing results, Salute Friday shots, random tidbits here and there, and tournament updates that’ll keep you informed perhaps more than you need.  All PCC happenings will be available right here on the GTB, and I’ll feed all info to you as things move along. I’ll even showcase how I do in the tournament qualifier and dazzle you with my scores compared to the nation’s best players. (I’m sorry, I can’t even write that with a straight face).

Grab a beer, pull up a chair if you can’t join us in person, and stay tuned. It’s almost PCC time, folks.
