Come on Kingwood, maybe I came on a little too strong yesterday? Can yall put up some golf foursomes? it's for a great cause, plenty of prizes and just a whole lot of fun! Check out the link that was posted on the original thread labeled ADC Open/Kingwood Challenge! As an added bonus, I'll stop being that obnoxious guy that won't let his thread die. I promise! 4951

Maybe you can have some flyers printed and posted at the country club? Not sure if any of the other golfing places will let you advertise there since it won't be at their location, but it can't hurt to ask. Also, and I'm sure this is a "duh", but don't forget to put signs up at the tournament location. Maybe some of their regulars will participate. 4951

We've covered or in the process of covering all those bases you listed. We have quite a few golfers on ADC and was hoping to find the same over here. Not quite sure how to reach the Kingwood golfers yet? 4951

There is a group of people who post here pretty religiously and I don't think I have heard golf mentioned on this forum once. Me and my buddies play maybe 1-2 times every six months but nothing more. I hardly doubt any feelings were hurt haha but that said there are plenty of lurkers and people on here are adamant about getting the word out for a good cause so I am sure you will get at least some Kingwood foursomes in the mix 4951

Is this being posted on the KDC Facebook paige? I'm sure that will help attract some people as well that may not be on the board. I agree with the above that there isn't really a lot of talk about golf, if any at all, so you may not get any of the regulars on here to bite, so to speak. Also, while I'm sure most people do enjoy a friendly competition, maybe back off a little on the us vs them thing, even though it was all said and done in jest and fun, and focus more on the cause. I'm still not too sure what the animosity amongst the two forums is from, but it may be best to not add fuel to that fire. 4951

Point taken, but had I thought there was any real animosity, I wouldn't have posted out here at all. But golfing , like any sport , is a lot more fun w competition. But I believe it has or is being posted on kdc Facebook,will check into that. 4951

Also, the constant bumping of all of the various golf messages you posted yesterday will just get you put on ignore. People see your messages and will contact you if interested. If it falls to the bottom of the page or another page so be it. The game is still over 2 months away, so relax and let the people come to you. 4951

Isn't this considered an advertisement? Maybe better suited for the classified section ? 4951

@Gregwood: I believe in honesty, so I'm going to just say it. Attempting to shame regulars is not the way to promote a fundraising event. You admitted to coming on too strong, and some have agreed with you. Continuing is going to irritate more and cause hostility.
 
If you want to be successful here, you really should consider pulling back and taking it easy. The event is not this weekend, so there is no urgency or rush to get people on board. Those who are interested have stated so, but pushing others who are not interested is not the way to go. This does not have to be hostile or uncomfortable, but it seems to be heading in that direction. Please consider easing up on people. 4951
