GHS Qualifier Report

After work today I trekked down south to the Mt. Royal Inn to participate in a qualifier for the GHS Player's Tournament. The Mount Royal Inn is a historic sight in the town of Mt. Royal, which is on the New Jersey side of the Delaware River and a bit south of Philadelphia. The qualifier is simple. You take 11 rounds of darts (33 darts) and total the score. Those scores are then used to place you in different groups for the main tournament on Sunday.

From sad recent experience in practice, I knew I was only averaging in the 70's per round. I resolved to be content with a score of 770 or above tonight. Luckily I met that standard, just barely, with a 779. Not bad for being tired after a long day at work. I played some pick up games of 301 with Anthony and George after and we had fun.

George mentioned that one player scored just a bit under 1100 in an earlier qualifier, which is a nice average, close to 100 per round. I figure my 779 will likely not be good enough to put me in the top group, but perhaps it will get me in the second group. We shall see. The main tournament is Sunday, so I will be in Philly and reporting this weekend. Until then, good darts!
