A gathering of 12 of the most interesting men of the world provided for a team match play format and a pot of $600 over the weekend of October 24-26 in Gettysburg PA area.
First, it was gorgeous weather all weekend; a bit windy, but sunny and 60’s in the colorful foliage of the PA foothills.
The Bridges of Gettysburg golf course was in outstanding condition; the greens were the best and in professional speed and difficulty.
Also, the varying elevations and nuances of the course proved to be a challenge from the white tees that totaled 6300 yards.
BGA veterans Frank Mejia and Jim Frenette captained to two 6-man teams in a Ryder Cup format (match play) – The ACES and The JOKERS, respectively.
