Wink 2008 fantasy golf

I enjoyed playing fantasy golf the past couple of years and look forward to playing again.

I set up another league for 2008 already. If you are interested in playing you can join here.

I have been much more interested in following the PGA Tour since I started playing fantasy golf. I watched a little golf on TV before that, but not as much and I had little interest in who most of the players were. Fantasy golf changes that. Some of those guys are playing for you now hehe.

This is a Yahoo! league. You can play in more than one league. If Golf Rewind sets up a league let me know. If you do play in multiple leagues it's just the same team...saves a lot of time, but it's not like fantasy football where you have separate teams.

I gave away some prizes in my league last year and hope to do the same this year. One sponsor made pom pom headcovers which made great prizes. To help keep things interesting, I provided a monthly prize.

Each league can have up to 50 players. Some players in last year's league will be there. I sent out an invite to 25 players (those that didn't hide their email address).

GR members are very welcome to play in the league and of course a GR league if one is set up.

It really is fun to play...strictly point totals and not head to head matches.

To play, just pick 8 players each week. You pick 2 A players, 4 B players, and 2 C players. Each round, you pick 1 A player, 2 B players, and 1 C player. This is how it worked the past couple of years, anyway.

Play starts Jan 3rd. You can join now.

Have fun and good luck playing fantasy golf.

Welcome, guys.

The league is almost full already and there a lot of players from last year.

There are a few spots left. So, if you haven't joined yet please do even if you haven't played fantasy golf before...not many people have hehe.

Re: 2008 fantasy golf

Last chance to join...there is 1 spot left in this league.

It will probably be taken very quickly.

Each league can have up to 50 players.

Re: 2008 fantasy golf

I did some cleanup of the league and removed some players that never set up a team.

So, if you want to join there are spots available right now.

We play for a monthly prize, so it doesn't matter very much if starting late. If you are playing in another league your points will carry over.

Click here to join.

Re: 2008 fantasy golf

The first prize is all set up. This will be January's prize unless I have the high score hehe. I'll carry it over to February if I win.

It includes a Jack Nicklaus Limited edition £5 Banknote
Commemorative envelope
3 information Cards which were only available in 2005
4 DVD's on Jacks Career

All these items were only available to customers of The Royal Bank of Scotland and are very difficult to obtain as a full set.




The prize will be shipped from Scotland by a participating member of the league and my site.

Re: 2008 fantasy golf

Golf Rewind's HOT IRISH has joined and has a 3 point lead over me. I'm in 3rd, Irish is in 2nd, and Mempho Maniacs is in 1st going into the final round in Week 4 (Tiger Time). It's a close league and anyone in the top 10 or so could end up taking the first prize. We play one more tournament after this for the prize.

There are some familiar names from last year playing well again this year.

Re: 2008 fantasy golf

We're playing 5 weeks for this first prize. I barely have the lead anyway after 4 weeks hehe. Maybe HOT IRISH will take the prize next week.



If I still have the lead after Week 5 (not likely) everybody will get a mulligan and the prize will be for February's total high score. A lot of players must be cheering me on this week.

Re: 2008 fantasy golf

I made room for some new players if you are interested in joining this fantasy golf league.

You can join "late" and still have something to play for because we play for a monthly prize...high score just for that month.

HOT IRISH came very close to taking the first prize, but Untouchables took it...very close.

To join click here. It's a Yahoo! league.

Re: 2008 fantasy golf

HOT IRISH is leading now and won the February prize. HI must be close to making the public top 50.

There are some spots available for those that want to play. This is a Yahoo! fantasy golf league. We start over each month for playing for a prize. Week 10 starts now and begins a new month of play. If you join and set up your team tonight (March 5th) you will be set up in time to play for the March prize. Join here.

To play, just pick 8 players; 2 A, 4 B, and 2 C players. Before each round starts you select 1 A player, 2 B players, and 1 C player for that day.
