September, September, September. There just aren't enough open weekends in the month. BBGD 17.5 will be on September 10th, for those local guys that can't make the drive to Connecticut for Ray's event. Same time, same place, but this tournament will be cheaper, with a smaller prize, but should still be a lot of fun! Also, this event is Ray Robilard approved!
