It sickens me to see that low of a score. Its the one reason I wouldn't call NC the disc golf Mecca.

It may be a short course, but it is very technical. You have to hit lines and make putts - I did both.

Also most courses in this area are not like that. Sure we don't have a lot of big courses, but we have lots of courses where 54 is a good score.

And besides, its only 4 shots better than the score you posted :eek:

also, the course is really old.

NC has had courses in the ground since 1983. Courses that are old are just going to be short.

most all new courses in NC are NOT like that.

It would be interesting to see who has the highest SSA (18-hole equivalent) on the course they had their highest rated round.

Yeah but the course I played has a few holes over 400 and only like 6-7 under 300.

I too have shot a 38 but it was on my home course and only took a few thousand rounds to do. I don't like courses that are so technical you never pull out a driver. Luckily for TX we are getting a lot of courses that require both power and accuracy.

Any course with an SSA under 41.4 is not considered valid for ratings even though we still calculate them as a customer service. Every throw is worth 15 ratings points on Blendon! Brad, that's still an awesome round. Just that the ratings math progressively gets 'frayed' at the edges for courses this short/easy.

I believe Tom Monroe (drdisc) told me one time he designed it as one of the first 10 or 20 courses which would make it late 70s. That longest hole at 265' was a par 4 then. You could ask him.

That made me laugh.

why? i think your NC boy can attest!

He cashed in 8 out of 10 events over on your turf

Moved to Texas went 0 for 5

hmmmmm

Ha, I would say that Logan's case was mainly just not use to playing that style of golf.

I know when I played World Dubs there, there were shots I stuggled on (mainly the over the top stuff) simply b/c we just don't do that here.

However, cashing here is no joke.I've seen C tiers where you had better be putting up 4 digit rounds if you wanna cash.

How about Houston where you have to shoot 1000 to cash at C-tiers because half of the 6 man division is 1000 rated. :D

Small fields dont give you an accurate idea of what it takes to cash on average.

Yeah but the fact we pull players who aren't too bad from other states helps make it a little harder to cash here. Screw cashing let's look at what it takes to get top 4. :D

I have only won 2 B-tiers and had to shoot 1030 over 4 rounds to do it and in one of those events we still needed a playoff. You have to shoot good in TX to win. I'm not sure about cashing because we do have some ADV players who move up making it easier but I would have no problem saying that you have to shoot real good to make the top card.

Oh we just have Coda, E-mac, yeti, Nolan, and some guy named JD who went to the east coast and brought back an A-tier win. :eek:

I made a huge comeback on my final round. I parked the final hole, and the leader who was two strokes ahead had to can a 45' uphill putt for par. He did. Consequently, I missed my last putt for a birdie and that kept it a 2 stroke lead. Would have been great if the leader would have missed that putt and I made it to force a playoff. Woulda-Shoulda-Coulda.... At least I had the lowest score and the highest rated round of the tourny... :D

Brent Mabry shot a 16 on the 20 hole setup this year and it was 1050 something.

My guess is you would have been in the 1070's.

However, I still think your best round is that time you destoryed the CC.

Of course it wasn't sanctioned - it never is when you kill it :D

My final round of the Eugene Celebration propelled me to my first pro win. Started the tournament with a terrible round and then played 1030 average on day two.
