From what I hear, it's one of their more fun tournies.

Colombo218 gave me 500-1*/** odds on the 12th hole for a hole in one. Par 3.

* = $500 vs me buying him a peggy lawton brownie. how do i not accept?

**- i sliced the tee shot badly.

BUMP.

We have a prop sheet for golf bets between kyleb and entity and myself, but feel like we don't have enough. More ideas and stories of fun props please!

Right now we have:

$20/par
$20/CTP
$30/holing from off the green
-$30/3putt
-$50/4putt

Escalating bets where payout doubles per occurance, starting at:

$5/sand hazard
$10/water hazard
$5/GIR (handicapped)
$50/birdie
$25/sand save

I'm having trouble coming up with anything else to satisfy my gamble.

That seems awfully low. Kyleb gave me 5,000:1 on $5 on holing out an approach shot from the fairway from ~162 out.

I'd take 5000:1 no problem. But 500:1 sure seems low unless you're scratch or better...then that's starting to sound about right.

Not a prop bet as such, but we do have a bet for KP (closest to the pin) on every par three. The interesting part is that you don't collect if you 3 putt. Is this "3-putt" caveat used by anyone else out there?

I would be willing to bet up to 500k that if given 10 tries, I could hit a 600+ yard drive on a fairly flat surface, maybe a few hills but nothing drastic.

you are talking normal grass right?... so when can we set this up?

RickAstleyFan · #48 08-26-2007, 11:01 PM

I could hit a drive 1,000 yards on an all ice surface...

black knight · #49 08-27-2007, 03:06 AM

I sincerely doubt that...

I've heard that pretty much anyone can beat anyone if the better player plays 2 balls and has to play his worst ball for the next shot.

For instance, I could probably give Tiger a good match in that format (I'm a 9). I've never done it but I would imagine that the putting is what kills the better player since they have to make everything twice. The rest of the game would suck for them too since any errant shot they hit means they need to hit TWO good recoveries.

If you know a cockey player who is a lot better than you it could be an easy payday.
