Hola El Tigre Golfers,

This Wednesday we will be playing a four-person “red-white-blue” team game, whereby all teams will need to record one best ball net score for all holes with “blue” pins, two best ball net scores for all holes with “white” pins and 3 best ball net scores for all holes with “red” pins. For scoring purposes, please record both gross and net scores for all players and provide team score summaries for the front nine, the back nine and the total 18 holes.

As of today, we have 43 players signed up to play this Wednesday.

Reminder: Please make sure that you repair all of your divots and that you also rake out from any bunker that you may have entered.

Good luck to all golfers!

Hola El Tigre Golfers,

This Wednesday we will be playing a four-person “walz” team game, whereby all teams will need to record one best ball net score on holes 1, two best ball net scores on hole 2, 3 best ball net scores on hole 3 and this pattern (1-2-3-1-2-3….) will continue for all of the remaining holes. For scoring purposes, please record both gross and net scores for all players and provide team score summaries for the front nine, the back nine and the total 18 holes.

As of today, we have 36 players signed up to play this Wednesday.

Reminder: Please make sure that you repair all of your divots and that you also rake out from any bunker that you may have entered.

Good luck to all golfers!

Hola El Tigre Golfers,

It is great to finally start our 2024/2025 Men’s league golf season next Wednesday. I arrived yesterday and I played the course today and I was very impressed with the condition of the course.

Next Wednesday we be playing a four-person team game, whereby all teams will need to record one best ball net score on all Par 3’s, two best ball net scores on all Par 4’s and 3 best ball net scores on all Par 5’s. For scoring purposes, please record both gross and net scores for all players and provide team score summaries for the front nine, the back nine and the total 18 holes.

As a follow up to my last post, I have received several suggestions from our members concerning new games that they would like to see be added to our current inventory of games. I will most certainly be looking to add these games during the course of the season, and I would also continue to encourage any member to provide me with any other new games that they would like to see be included in our weekly Men’s league events.

Reminder: Please make sure that you repair all of your divots and that you also rake out from any bunker that you may have entered.

Good luck to all golfers!

Hola El Tigre Golfers,

We are now less than two weeks away from the start of the 2024/2025 Men’s League golf season.

As mentioned in my previous post, the first official start date of the Men’s season is Wednesday, November 6th. Steve Johnson has also graciously agreed to reserve additional tee times for Men’s League play for the last two Wednesdays in October (October 23rd and October 30th). Per the new golf league registration/sign up rules now in effect, all members are now provided with a rolling four-week window for signing up to play for the weekly Wednesday Men’s League golf events. To follow is a summary covering the first four weeks of Men’s League play:

• October 23rd – Calendar registration sign up began at 5:00 PM Vallarta time on September 25th and effective today we have 24 players signed up,
• October 30th – Calendar registration sign up began at 5:00 PM Vallarta time on October 2nd and effective today we have 26 players signed up,
• November 6th – Calendar registration sign up began at 5:00 PM Vallarta time on October 9th and effective today we have 25 players signed up,
• November 13th – Calendar registration sign up begins at 5:00 PM Vallarta time on October 16th and the same pattern will be in effect for all future dates

As in the past, I will send out a post to all players the weekend before each Wednesday’s golf league event, summarizing the game and format that we will be using that week. Please know that we are always looking to add new games and/or new formats to the weekly golf events that we play during the course of our 6-month season. I would welcome any suggestions that you might have as it pertains to the inclusion of any new game/format that you have found interesting and enjoyable that we could add to our current list of games. You can either reply to this post with your ideas or send me an email at markusgmelin@gmail.com.

Looking forward to another great season of Men’s League golf.

Hola El Tigre Golfers,

I hope that everyone had a great summer! Fall golf at the El Tigre is rapidly approaching, and I would like to provide everyone with a quick update concerning the start of the season. Gerard recently sent out a post to all members explaining the new Golf League Registration Process as it pertains to all of the leagues (Men’s, Women’s Couple’s and Skins). The new process should provide important scheduling benefits to all members. A copy of Gerard’s email is included at the end of this post.

The first official start date of the Men’s season is Wednesday, November 6th. Steve Johnson has also graciously agreed to reserve additional tee times for Men’s League play for the last two Wednesdays in October (October 23rd and October 30th). Per the new golf league registration/sign up rules now in effect, members will be able to sign up for the three dates cited above as follows:

• October 23rd – Calendar registration sign up began at 5:00 PM Vallarta time on September 25th,
• October 30th – Calendar registration sign up begins at 5:00 PM Vallarta time on October 2nd, and
• November 6th – Calendar registration sign up begins at 5:00 PM Vallarta time on October 9th, and the same pattern will be in effect for all future dates (additional details will be forthcoming in future posts).

Looking forward to another great season of Men’s League golf.

New Golf League Registration Process  –  Recent Post from Gerard

This season there are changes to the registration process for all four leagues (Ladies, Men’ss, Couples & Skins) wherein the respective calendars will open for registration only 28 days in advance of each league game date.  This will continue every week thereafter for the balance of the season.  In other words, when the calendar opens, you can book for the game scheduled four weeks into the future.

Example:  Ladies League calendar opens October 11th for play on November 8th only.  Then opens again October 18th for play on November 15th.  This will continue for the balance of the season.

After season begins, it will be easier to remind it. After each game, you will be able to sign in for the game four weeks ahead on the same weekday. Registration will open at 5:00PM on that day. As usual, sign in will be open until game’s eve, 8:00AM for Ladies league and 3:00PM for other leagues.

Priority will be given to El Tigre Golf Members first.  Visiting family or friends that wish to play the Leagues will be handled on a case-by-case basis, however, every effort will be made to accommodate where possible.

League administrators will soon provide you with additional information on the coming season.
