this is gonna be cool.
hooray for Cris Hicks and staff!!!!!

sschumacher · Mar 30 2010, 01:59 PM

The flyer states charity event for the Tulsa SPCA but I'm wondering if this could be a secret conspiracy on the part of Hicks and the TDSA to raise public funds to have me neutered.

Twisted1 · Mar 30 2010, 02:21 PM

Hey Cris am I reading this right? No fee for non members? And yes Furdog I would be very afraid...

m_conners · Mar 30 2010, 02:39 PM

This tournament sounds awesome.

... that would be correct ... the "Pro/Am by LS Discs" has a somewhat-similar non-member / non-fee option ...

evandmckee · Mar 30 2010, 04:54 PM

Charity Competition Endowment Program from the PDGA, one of the better things I've seen the org do in awhile

charity must be a 501c3
$2 PDGA C Tier Fee donated to charity, must be matched by event
25% of entry must be donated to charity

this allows the option of no $10 non-member fee (TD may charge and donate also if they wish)

pretty cool program to allow a charity event to get sanctioned - same program I've utilized for to sanction the Ft. Smith Ice Bowl - all required from the PDGA is normal sanctioning fee ($50) plus you can get the insurance for 50 more if required/wanted

http://www.pdga.com/files/documents/...am-Details.pdf

LS Discs event is offering a "Casual Division" - non sanctioned div., not a bad idea to attract new players with a low entry that wouldn't care about ratings, ect.

wforest · Mar 30 2010, 05:31 PM

.. .Evan 'nailed it' ... Hicks' tourney in May covers all-divisions (like Evan's Icy Bowl) ... the LS Discs tourney in April has one 'special' Division (casual) offered to enter-and-compete for non-pdga-addl-fee ...

Twisted1 · Mar 30 2010, 08:30 PM

We just made the next PDGA ad LOL! Yep, I have checked it out... Gotta love it! Are you NON current players reading this? Get in while you can!

The Am Jam team is drumming up sponsorship for the tournament!

News flash: Hobbytown USA at 71st and Memorial is the presenting sponsor for the tournament. They have a great inventory of discs - pay them a visit and be sure to thank James or Ellen for their support of the Am Jam.

The Oklahoma Disc Golf Foundation has also thrown down some cash, and is the first Ace Sponsor.

Here are some sponsorship levels that are still available (and the perks that go with them):

$200 Ace Sponsor: Full page recognition in program. Banner displayed at tournament site. Booth or table at tournament headquarters. Name/logo on back of t-shirt.

$100 Birdie Sponsor: Half page recognition in program. Booth or table at tournament headquarters. Name/logo on back of t-shirt.

$50 Par sponsor: Recognition in program. Name/Logo on back of t-shirt.

$20 Am Jam Friend: Recognition in program

Come on! You know you want your name on that t-shirt! And you pros could set up a table and sell signed, autographed photos, highlight dvds, and collectors item discs! You can't play in the tournament, but maybe you could still make some cash at your booth.

Support the Am Jam. I predict that in 2015 it will draw more players than Bowling Green! This is going to be a first class event.

chicks · Apr 12 2010, 05:20 PM

Jim is doing a great job on getting us sponsors for the Tulsa Am Jam and I have had people from Dallas telling me they are coming in for this tournament, so I am very excited to kick this thing off!
I also visited the Tulsa Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals shelter in North Tulsa before making them the charity for this event and I can tell you personally that they are doing good work on saving abused and neglected dogs and cats. They gave me a tour of their facilities and were over joyed that we (disc golfers) were going to help their shelter. This is a win win situation if you are an amateur disc golfer.
Also be sure and make Dave Wise' all amateur one day tourney, The Centennial Cup, on May 1st. If you know Dave, you know he will make it worth your while for coming out and playing.

wforest · Apr 21 2010, 02:20 PM

… Cris-o … you Champion Pro Master-o … check your e-mail-o … kick-me-back some detail-o … thankin’ yo …

jgeurin · Apr 21 2010, 10:22 PM

Cris, people are askin' - where is the sign-up? Hunter?

wforest · Apr 22 2010, 11:24 AM

... yesterday , he wuz mulling that over ...

chicks · Apr 22 2010, 03:25 PM

I will be taking sign ups on Friday at McClure from 5pm to 9pm across from hole 17 (MC's front yard). Big Nic's Friday night doubles will also be held there that night (8:15pm sign up).
The order of play will be Haikey (sign ups that morning from 7:30am to 8:15am), Hunter Saturday, then Dovillio and McClure for the final rounds on Sunday. The TSPCA will be out at McClure at lunch time on Sunday with animals for potential adoption (I think Furdog needs a pal).
We have HobbyTown USA as our presenting sponsor and other sponsors include The Oklahoma Disc Golf Foundation, TDSA, The Line, Twisted Flyer, and Wayne Forest.
Now we can only hope that the world doesn't end on 2012, or if it is then make sure you get in this year or next!
Online sign ups at pdga.com. First 50 players to sign up will recieve a tournament t-shirt.
Cris

Don't try and Buffalo me buddy. I know there is a conspiracy going on in the TDSA to have me neutered so I will shut up and just stand around and stare at everyone.

... gotchya corrected above ...

pdorries · Apr 26 2010, 04:54 PM

I was out at haikey briefly on Sunday and they had freshly mowed the park.. it looked beautiful... and I only played the first four holes (the ones that are normally wet'n muddy).

This got me thinking, when is the next time you can play this sweet course in a tournament format???

TULSA AM JAM... not only that, but there are already multiple sponsors contributing to this tournament. AM ONLY means this will be a treat to all of the amateur players in the surrounding area!

Don't let it sneak up on you and just at the last second have to make other plans... SIGN UP NOW ... http://www.pdgasignup.com/Qstore/Qst...ROD=1269369391 ... that way when someone asks you what you are doing on May 15 and 16th... you can respond with "playing is the first ever (of many to come) Tulsa Am Jam!"

How cool would that be... in 15 years when all the new up and coming players are just getting involved with the biggest AM event in the midwest, you could say... yeah.. I remember the very first one!

GET PRE'REGGED!!!

twoputtok · Apr 26 2010, 04:59 PM

Thanks Paul

wforest · Apr 26 2010, 06:55 PM

... yes , Paul ... very well put ...

chicks · Apr 27 2010, 02:32 PM

Thanks for the plug Paul and for backing up your interest in this event. Paul is paying for an entry into the Tulsa Am Jam to be given away at Dave's event The Centennial Cup this weekend (another all am event). So be sure and make it out to Owasso this Saturday.
Also Jason Schwake is providing a free entry into the Jeremy Martin Memorial tourney in OKC to be given away at the Tulsa Am Jam. So thanks to both those guys!
Sponsors keep coming for the Am Jam which now also include: Dr. Jim, Mike Treat, and Tom's Bicycles. It should be a good one!

DoughDuff · May 03 2010, 12:44 AM

Who won the entry into this event at Centennial this weekend? That was a great donation Dorries, I was really wanted to win that...You should have donated your services as a caddy....wait, scratch that...If you kicked my bag I might get upset

Martin_Norris · May 03 2010, 12:48 PM

Sorry to miss this one but Valerie my youngest daughter is graduating from OU that Saturday and I will be in Norman to see her get her first two degrees have fun at the jam!

chicks · May 05 2010, 07:17 PM

Despite me being an OSU grad I will say congratulations to Valerie and kind of like a hallmark card moment I will say "cherish the moment". See you at the next Tulsa Am Jam unless you got more daughters graduating next year.
