Let's Use PGA Tour Fantasy To Get Us Through The Playoffs!
/I think I'm speaking for many of you, the stellar major season of 2015 has spoiled us. The quality of the play, the intrigue surrounding the venues and the overall satisfaction factor was pretty phenomenal. History will remember this as an exceptional year to be a fan of major championship golf.
Which brings us to the "playoffs."
Longtime readers know I'm a fan of the playoff concept if they were actual playoffs not determined by resets and algorithms. Nor am I a fan of them coming so close on the heels of the majors. A breather would be nice and some fall golf would be better, but football's spell over America procludes that possibility.
So I'm proposing that we get through these playoffs together via PGA Tour Fantasy. We all golf to get its act together on the fantasy front to keep fans engaged during those weeks when we really don't want to watch and the latest iteration with Avis is an attempt to do so.
With that in mind Avis and Callaway are going to supply some incentive to sign up, play and win. I'm also working on a few more prizes for the big winner.
Here's how it'll work: join the GeoffShackelford.com league this week or be in the league already, and we'll have a drawing for a 1-day rental certificate.
Four weekly winners of the FedExCup events will receive 1 day rentals from Avis.
Most points from the overall wins a two-day rental certificate and the new Great Big Bertha, while second place wins an Odyssey putter.
The game is ShotLink-based and designed to emphasize every shot counting. You pick four players, two alternates each week. Simple as that, though if you want to dig in on stats and do some extra homework, you can.
Here's the league, so sign up now and we'll get through these playoffs...together. As a league.
