2014 Bilyeu Classic

Gentlemen,
Thank you for participating.  The OMGA Bilyeu Classic honors a gentleman who had a deep respect for the game of golf & the values that are displayed while playing as well as a true passion for his "Club" & making it better.  Although Mr. Bilyeu was definitely taken from this earth too soon, his spirit & legacy is still strong as numerous individuals in this field have continued to make Oxmoor CC a priority of pride!  

This weekend's format will consist of a flighted 27-hole stroke play event.  The format for tomorrow is an odd/even alternate shot with no handicap.  Teams will select who will play the odd/even tee shots and then proceed with a true alternate shot format until the hole is completed. Sunday will feature a 18-hole better ball competition in which players will receive 90% of their handicap.  The scores will be added together & all flight winners, flight runner-ups & the lowest non-qualifier score of the day (Sun.) will participate in a 3-hole shoot-out to determine the 2014 champion using a true alternate shot format.  We look forward to seeing you this weekend & appreciate each of your support of Oxmoor CC!
Sincerely,
Josh Snider
PGA Certified Head Golf Professional
