Benny Martin leaving the MS State Parks - 6 years ago

Hello everyone, I have had a couple of telephone calls the past couple of days. I have been offered a job at the University Of Mississippi. I wanted all my friends, and collagues to hear it from me. I am leaving due to a better job offer and future with the state. This past year has shown me a lot of disadvantages in the job that I currently am employed in. I will be out of circulation for abo

Hello Everyone, I would like thank the Wall Doxey Staff, Lyle, Jeff, Sherry, Bill, Larry, Pumpkin, Norma , Kevin, Nell, and Mike Stepp for their tireless effort on putting on back to back championships, sponsorships, and a great time. These guys are the true reason why 128 baskets in the last two years have went into Mississippi state parks over the last two years (the idea of a state employee n

Re: Women's Championships - 6 years ago

Hello everyone, Shane and I spoke at the Doubles Championship this weekend. He asked me to look at this thread because he over heard me speaking to a couple of women about scheduling a women's only tournament. Once, John has time to change the name of the tourney. The date for this tournament will be March 31, 2007. Over the next couple of weeks, I will have the details totally worked out. I

Hello Thomas D, I still don't have a cabin available. This is a number to someone renting the octagon cabins before you turn off of HWY 32 coming into the park. (662) 623-8745 ask for Teresa. These cabins are located about 4 miles from the park. Let them know we referred you and your playing at the tournament. I hope this helps. Benny

Re: MS State Doubles Championships - 8-9 July - 6 years ago

Hello everyone, Brad makes a good point no one ever complained why make the change to the course. While it seems the course is more designed for the big gun, it truly isn't. This course design is different but just as fun. This year it will cater more to the big throw due to the lake levels being lower, but as the corp of eng has told me "this is a once in a lifetime lake level". The c

Hello everyone, To answer most of the questions of Cromag2k, We only played 18 holes last year. This year will be 18 holes again. for sure two new tee pads will be for pr and advance. These holes will be 13 and 8 which will be hole 9 and 14 during the tournament. A new hole has been designed for the tournament to help with flow. Hole 1 will tee from a new area. Next week, I will have the pars an

Hello everyone, We have the alternate pin placements in the ground. We will be putting the baskets in tommorrow and will try to maintain them until the tournament.

Hello Everyone, I would like for people who are willing to post whether you have had a 180 degree energy drink. I think this would help us demographical for an SN sponsorship. At most tournaments, I usually buy one after a day of golf. Benny Mississippi

Re: MS State Doubles Championships - 6 years ago

Jeff, I agree with you about the mandos. I was picking on Jabba hence the evil laugh that I couldn't spell. I think you of all the people that may be attending the tournament will like some of the changes. Most of the changes being made on the course deal directly with the Pro and Advance divisions. The Ams will still have about the same play as the casual course. The difficulty of this cour

Re: MS State Doubles Championships - 6 years ago

Hello Everyone, Jabba, you know that I am using that imagination of mine and knowing you and Linton are teaming up. I plan on getting a little more devious (LOL). I believe you can't stand mando's (evil laugh here couldn't spell it).

Re: MS State Doubles Championships - 6 years ago

Yes, it will be three rounds of best shot. I am working on the new tees this week for both the Ams and Pros. I am hoping by the middle of next week to have Cossar's course morphed into a better tournament course.

Re: Mississippi TD meeting - 7 years ago

Hello Everyone, I enjoyed this meeting tremendously. I came to the conclusion that we basically all had the same ideas in different concepts to improve our tournaments. Shane ran a very productive meeting in where state park personnel and Tournament directors could understand each side of the house in the meeting.

Hello everyone, In talking with Dee at Lefluer's 12:00 noon is a great time for her. I spoke with Donald and several other managers and they are wanting to attend. The best to give directions to anyone who hasn't been to Lefluer's bluff State park is get on I-55 either North or South depending on direction. Exit on Lakeland Drive I believe the exit is 98 B. On lakeland head east about a 1/10 of
