    Golfs final major is rapidly approaching, and this is the part four follow up to the Masters, US Open, and British Open bottle pools I put together, with some slight changes from the past formats......

    This will NOT be first come, first served like the original Masters pool. Participants will all draft two golfers in a snake style format. The ante will be the same as the past three majors, if you want in please post what bottle you are putting up here in this thread. Your ante needs to be a bottle that would trade roughly the equivalent of a CCB Hunaphu. For anyone not familiar with Huna, it's a one day, brewery only release (BA rated 100) that sells for $20. If you look at the prior pool links above , you can see what others have put up as past entries. The bottle you put up is your only requirement for entry, however I highly encourage some local "extras" in addition to your ante.

    I will keep this open for entrants through Monday and after we have our field of entrants will use a random draft generator to determine what order we will draft the golfers in on Tuesday. Each participant will select two (2) golfers in a "snake" style type draft, once selected that golfer is no longer available (example, if we have 12 participants we draft in order the first twelve golfers down to position 12. Position 12 would also get the first pick in the second round, working our way back up to position 1 (who would have the last overall draft pick). The winners will be calculated two ways and split the prize pool. It is possible your team could win on both sides of the scoring methods used below. If this happens you would "bottle draft" both winning positions.

    1. The total amount of prize money your two golfers win combined.

    2. The combined placement score of your two golfers, with the lowest placement scores winning. Example, if your two golfers finish in 8th place and 17th respectively, their combined score is 25. If one or both of your golfers misses the cut, they will receive a score equal to the number of players who made the cut plus 1. So if one of your golfers missed the cut and the cut line was 77 golfers, your score for that golfer would be 78 to combine with whatever place your other golfer finishes in.

    If you want in please post here what bottle will be your ante, and BM me your email address to enter into the random draft order generator. The bottle you put up is your only requirement for entry, however I highly encourage some local "extras" as part of your ante.

    Once we have the total number that are participating in the draft, the bottle payouts will be determined, and the winners will "bottle draft" after the Open. Sorry noobs, this one is only for BAs with a solid established trade/BIF history. If you're lucky enough to win, you can draft your own bottle provided it's available when your turn to "bottle draft" comes up if you don't want to ship. Other than that, everybody ships.

    For the record, I'm in and putting up a RareDos from Cycle. Looking forward to golfs final major.

    Cheers and Good Luck all.....

    ( the above will be used to determine the draft order once we have all or participants established. Please remember to post your bottle ante here, but BM me your email for the draft generator.)

    Rory posted two videos on Instagram of him working out and hitting drives on the range. He looked good, and I'm pretty confident you can count on him teeing it up next Thurs as a cofavorite with Mr. Spieth.
