read somewhere that in the AM worlds 2005 everyone on the waitlist was accpeted to play. I have a busy summer, but would really like to play in tulsa. I will be on the waitlist and I was wondering what the likelyhood i will be able to play is?
thanks

The Texas...errrr....I mean Oklahoma AM Worlds might very well fill (off the wait list) this year. There are A LOT of disc golfers from Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas who will by playing this year. If you plan on trying to play this year via the waitlist, make sure you get on the waitlist early.

It would not surprise me if not everybody who wants to play gets to play this year.

When doesnt this happen?

We are definately trying to make that happen. ;)

It's a divisional thing.
A couple of divisions are usually expected to break into flights, provisions are made for a few others to break up as well.

The table below shows a growing trend, and with worlds back in the middle of the country close enough for most players to travel to, some divisions could fill this year.

The scheduling thing is that all flights must play the same number of rounds on the same courses before the midweek shuffle, and again before the semis. The largest division is MA1, and they normally get most of 4 flights. At 72 players per flight, it limits the division to 288 players.
MM1 is the second largest, and someitmes requires more than 1 flight, but hasn't exceeded 2 flights (144 players) yet.

The rest of the divisions generally combine for less than 2 flights together. This means that the schedule is normally formatted for a max of 8 flights (576 players).

The first 4 flights are scheduled to play the same courses the same number of times before and after the shuffle, and the second 4 flights are scheduled to play the same courses the same number of times before and after the shuffle.

The first 4 flights will not normally be playing the same courses the same number of times as the second 4 flights.

In fact the secon 4 flights will generally be split into 2 groups of 2 flights because of the difference in ratings of the divisions and be playing different courses altogether.

Thus the divisional limits are along the lines of:
MA1 - 288
MM1 - 144
All other divisions - 144

If there are only 100 MM1 players and about 40 MG1 players, then they can be combined freeing up more room in the remaining divisions.

It can be an interesting juggling act to get everything filled up, but it is possible for the MA1 division to fill and open slots still be available in the other divisions.

<table border="1"><tr><td>Year</td><td>MA1</td><td>MM1</td><td>FW1</td><td>MG1</td><td>MS1</td><td>FM1</td><td>FG1</td><td>FS1</td><td>Jrs

I would like to know when the Tulsa Worlds website will have the course page updated? Come on guys, only 7 more months......

There is plenty of time, only fools rush in...we still have some great opportunities for some new courses that will be installed, hopefully the Oklahoma wildfires did not hit a paticuliar piece of land :mad: I can't break the news until it's finalized but this course could be the best in Oklahoma and it will be used for worlds (as long as the fires stayed off it).

You can count on these:
McClure
Course Dovillio
Hunter Park

... AND ... that new course(s) will be located in sublime position for one of your "warm-weather" B-n-G Events ... ay ? ... :cool:

Will there be Am's playing the Worlds , with a rating above 950 ?

Yup and Billy lund will be there. He shot 1000+ in the OO as an AM. He is my pick.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

Billy if you let me down I will KILL you :D

Wow...........any others ?

Does it matter? Millz will be there I'm sure. Devan, Justin, Erron, and I don't know many others who are definantly going.

Millz ? I though he was a open player ?

No he is still an AM :D

Oh yeah and Chris Hutchinson

:eek: I did not know that.

Count me in......plans are already under way.....all I need now is the invite ! Rated 967 currently.

;)

Did you not play the Michiana open? :confused:

I did. My first A tier and I stunk the place up....bad! Ox Bow was once again my overall downfall. However, I now have a 1000+ rated round there. Finished 39th in the Open.

Will there be Am's playing the Worlds , with a rating above 950 ?



NC will have a good chance for the 3-peat with Jolly Green, Mulletman, and Son o Stan. All rated over 955...

and all still bagging too :D

and I don't know many others who are definantly going.



I'm there! Been looking forward to it for several months. Although, I'm only 906 now, I hope to be "peaking" come summertime. Yeah, right! "Peaking" up at the leaders waaaayyy ahead of me. :cool:

We will still make the trip well worth your while, even if you're a DFL.

I can promise you that. The Tulsa crowd will do our best to take care of all of you. ;)

When and where do we sign up via waitlist? I have a PDGA Junior membership so im thinking there is noway to get an invite, and not to mention i will have hardly played any sanctioned events by then. Yet, I want to be a part of this. Any information will be great
-Ryan

The invitations need to be sent first. Then the waitlist will be made available. Getting in early will not matter - as the PDGA has certain criteria they use to invite folks off of the waitlist. Since an Am Worlds has never filled in the past, those who wanted to play and were there did play. However, I suspect that this year's Am Worlds will fill...

KC in '03 was just a couple of dozen short of filling as memory serves...

... AND ... that new course(s) will be located in sublime position for one of your "warm-weather" B-n-G Events ... ay ? ... :cool:



That's right, B&G will be in full effect come summer time!!

I'll be well over 950 come Worlds....949 currently.

I'm currently learning how to putt too.

My goal is to be over 950 come worlds. I am pretty much playing above that level, I just have to get some cruddy rounds out of the factor first.

Ryan,

Here are the requirements from last year.
2005 Jrs invite list (http://www.pdga.com/documents/2005/05JrWorldsInviteListFINAL.pdf)

When are invites sent out this year? It think it has been answered before, I just cannot find it.

I think the invites go out around the first of March. They have to wait for the end of year results/points update in Feb.

HEy MAtt, I'll try not to let you down!! ;) I'll see you soon at Z-Boaz!!

so will playing the big show, and Zboaz Open get me anywhere near 50 pts? and do i have to play the Junior division or can i play rec?

Points earned in 2006 will be tabulated for the 2007 Worlds invititations.

and for the second part of the question, points are points now. It doesn't matter where you get them. Well, am points are am points, and pro points are pro points.

Can't wait for worlds!!!! Has anyone played the courses there? How do they compare to Iowa and Nevada worlds courses?

so will playing the big show, and Zboaz Open get me anywhere near 50 pts? and do i have to play the Junior division or can i play rec?


As a junior you are automatically invited to Worlds. I did not have the points from 2004 but was able to play 2005 because I had a junior membership.

Yeah, they'll let any junior whippersnapper play who wants to and look what happened :D

I'm going to win.

I think I'm in. We'll see by then. 967 rating but only would be second worlds. Maybe bring it back to Norcal. :cool:

You ain't pro yet George?? If geo stays am, my money's on him.

what about me :confused:

My money is on my team mate Devon Owens.

Those are his home courses, and he has McCoy and Hatfield and the likes to train with. Expect him to be at least in the finals.

I think Devon has a good shot, but my money is on Billy Lund. He has improved a great deal this last year. Erron Salazar is on my list as well. I predict it will be one of those 3.

Devan hasn't been playing so Billy or Erron but probably Billy.

Devan hasn't been playing so Billy or Erron but probably Billy.



Still plenty of time to get back into the swing of things before worlds.

I do agree at least one Tulsan will be in top 3 (I like MC with Big-toss Billy nipping at his heels).

Watch out for up and comers!!! :eek:

... as in : up and "conners" ... :D

Devan hasn't been playing so Billy or Erron but probably Billy.



I say ERRON!!! that punk!! :p and I can beat him on a short course!!haha!!

Cant a Pimp get some freakin respect around here. Ill be out there in Tulsa as well :mad:

Cant a Pimp get some freakin respect around here. Ill be out there in Tulsa as well :mad:



and??????

Pimp, if you are hitting your lines like you were at the DGLO you will be in the mix. ;)

Can't wait for worlds!!!! Has anyone played the courses there? How do they compare to Iowa and Nevada worlds courses?



dammmmn..........i missed the nevada worlds??????????

i guess i'll make it next time :D



and to answer the wait list question.....it doesn't matter when invites go out.....waitlist always starts at midnite march 1st....and there are 8-10 criteria for coming OFF the wait list....
being centrally(as in not far for the non-travelling texas am baggers :eek:)...it may have a chance of not pulling many OFF the wait list.....so be ready at 11:59 pm feb 28th so you can be on it for a chance to come OFF it

every year the same questions from the same texans :D

Cant a Pimp get some freakin respect around here. Ill be out there in Tulsa as well :mad:



Um.....

No /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

so what are the PDGA requirements for getting in on the wait list? I will be close to making the 20% in the state but I just don't think I will make it the first go round and will have to be on the list March 1

Does one need to be a "dues paid member" to 1) receive an invitation, 2) get on the waitlist come March 1st?

Same questions as every year...but important nonetheless!!

... I am certain that your answers to the above questions are :

1) YES

2) YES

and if you're becoming a member in 2006 to get into the 06 Worlds, I believe that is the lowest criteria for acceptance from the waitlist.

I think they have a list of around 10 or 11 criteria ranked in order with new members being #11.

Maybe they should give ne Ace Club members higher priority. :cool:

Maybe they should give ne Ace Club members higher priority. :cool:



try eagle club :D

that might(stress might)move you up some :D

I think all eagle club members should get automatic invitations to worlds for life.

I think all eagle club members should get automatic invitations to worlds for life.



nah...you're only paying 2 grand for eagle....that only covers about 10-12 worlds as a pro player.....maybe 12-14 as an am....

the key is to sign up a baby as an eagle....then if they live to at least 65 you save potentially 14,500 bucks even if they never go pro and the prices never increase :D

He just said invites, not paid for admission, but if Eagle club members get lifetime invites, then they would not have to build up points, therefore they would not have to go to tournaments, therefore saving at least $400 per year, therefore saving potentially $29,000. :)

It is really a very small perc for those that sign up for it.

Most of them will already play enough to qualify for an invite without an automatic exemption. Just a small token of appreciation for those few that are eagle club members.

Gary,

I was kidding, I think it is a good idea.

Where will the "2007" Am Worlds be taking place?

Milwaukee

Not Tulsa! :D

This is going to sound stupid but as alot of you know i dont really know the PDGA that much or their site and when it says that you have to send an email to the pdga office thats just going to the contacts and the one that says pdga office right.

Right.

Instead of email you could try the phone number.
PH:706-261-NDGC (6342)

Well it said preferbally by email so I didnt know but thats still a ways away so it doesnt matter.

So, I have a question: Do they take all the 1000+ point players out of the top 20% when they make the rest of the invites?

There are 6 players in GA that have over 1000. Then I am 4th down on the list below the 6 players at 1000+, with 752. Does this make me in the top 20% for the automatic bid or will I need to try and get in on the wait list? Also, my buddy Matt was registered in MD all of last year but has switched his address with his re-newing of membership, does that mean he is a GA player for the Worlds or do they go on last years place of membership?

Thanks for all the answers.... :D

We neeed someone from the PDGA to respond to your questions.

Only 6 months away!!!!! Can't wait!!!

The host hotel is now 25% booked. Looks like there will be a lot of players for this one. ;)

Just booked ours!!

I have a few things that I was wondering about throughout the day today. Not saying that it�s a bad idea but does anyone else think that they waiting list should be done a little earlier than March 6? I was looking at the post and the host hotel is 25% full well I know I�m not going to be invited because of I only have 2 PDGA events to this time. But the thing is how positive is it that if I bought my plane tickets and hotel room today that I would get on the waiting list in 2-3 months. All that stuff is not refundable and I don�t want to put in all that money to not make the tournament. Also I saw the room package started on the 21st is there like pre qualifiers or something like that when is the best time to get the room from when to when?

Justin, the fact that you are playing in the Jr division all but secures your acceptance from the wait list. The hotel package that starts on the 21st is designed for players that want to come in the weekend before to play all of the courses before the event. The Host hotel also has a rate for players that want to come in just before the tournamnet and only stay a few nights.
We have tried to accomodate the different situtaions that players will have by having different hotel packages.

You will want to stay at the host hotel if possible. We are trying have transportion available for the jr division, from the host hotel each day to and from the courses.

The invitations are in early March because the final 2005 tournament stats update is done in late February.

Dave is processing the last of the 2005 TD reports tomorrow. Looks like only one event won't have all of the info submitted to be rated (but points were awarded) which is a record. So, yearend point totals should be posted sometime next week and final ratings update is still on schedule for the 14th.

... nice work , guys ...

Nice work to all of the TDs that turned in reports on time this year.

Thanks to those that turned them in late, but not so late that they couldn't be counted.

Im excited i cant wait. ill be up there for sure.

... WOW Ryan ... can you bring your avatar with you ? ... :o

PLEEEEASE do! :D

The first of three new courses is being shipped from Innova today!!!!!!!!!!!

The next two will be shipped within the next 45 days.


Thank you for all of your support of the SB Orc program. ;)

Does that include dirt and trees? :confused: ;)

Why would you care, tell the truth, you're only worried about the sheep. :eek:

What's the matter. :confused:...You afraid I'm going to get your goat? :D

This might be a really stupid question but I'm really wondering wasn't to sure about this one. Since they have a pro worlds tape they make an Am Worlds tape dont they?

Only when Am & Pro Worlds were together in 2000 and 2004. Otherwise, only the Pro Worlds video has been made.

I saw we should get an Am worlds then because I know I would love to see myself playing to maybe learn from what I'm doing compared to others.

Send a video to BlakeT of yourself driving/putting or what ever you need work on.

When he has time, he can look at it. He helped me increase my consistent long drives from 375 to 410 by making slight variations in the distance between steps of my run up.

I think an Am Worlds dvd would be a good idea. More Ams that might buy it to remember the courses and the week.

Maybe more of the courses and people plus the finals.

I'm sure the option is available. Any production company who wants to pursue media permission arrangements for video projects with the PDGA is encouraged to do so. The PDGA regularly gets requests and grants permission for projects. Just don't expect any funding, primarily just cooperation once a deal is arranged.

I don't know but I know I would buy at least 1 if not more. If I was on it I would probably get 2-3 lol. But really I know that this is my first Am Worlds and think that it would be so cool to have a dvd of a course/tournament that you were involved in.

I guess it's all about demand. I mean is it worth it for them to sell 300+ dvd's at $15 at least each hmm $4500. That's a nice chunk of change for the PDGA. I hope they do make a dvd; there is no reason not too.

Made a poll on a forum I just made now lets see what kind of responses I get off that.

Forgot to also mention booked my plane tickets and hotel room yesterday. So I'm in now I have to just make sure I get on the waiting list some how.

where did you get your tickets? I've only found 1 round trip deal from where I'm at in TN for under 400.00

Not sure my mom bought the tickets.

Uh....Justin. Don't worry about the waiting list. Your name is already on the invite list. Congrat's dude. :cool: ...

Really, Justin, you should check the list. :D


Kids never listen. ;)

Sorry buddy but the hillbilly division has already been filled by some guys from Arkansas... ;)...We do have some spots in the redneck mothers division though. You, being an ex-okie, should do well there. :cool:

Save your $400 bucks. Wise and I will be sending a pack mule up there to pick you up. We're even going to include a inflatable so you don't get lonely on the road. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

"Hillbagger"

Does anybody know which courses will be played for AM Worlds?

... for now : McClure , Dovillio , Haikey , Hunter , & 2 brand-new Courses at Mohawk ...
.
.
... for now ...

Does Mohawk offer RV hookups? Or can you recommend places in Tulsa that do? I know I heard people talking about that this weekend at Z. Might be something I will have to do too...Melissa's and Dave's place might get crowded.

For those that would like information on these beauties, send me a PM

I have a very limited number of these. They are Star Wraiths and star Beasts , $35 each, plus shipping.

Unless you pick them up from me, then its just $35 each.

Thanks


I forgot to mention that these were designed by our own Steve Ward. Next time you see him let him know what you think. ;)

just sent ya an email. I want one please.

Really, Justin, you should check the list. :D

Slackers.

Dorc and Lindsay: Relax big fella, no need to get angry...there are a multitude of courses in T-Town that were up for consideration for 06 AM Worlds. Since last night, I know for fact which courses are being used but since your an impatient disc golfer I'll let one of the TDSA Administrators tell your impatient personality what's up. :cool:

We should have two more course up in a week. Once they are all done we will have them up on the website. Its been a little hectic as Mohawk is about to go in and Haikey is being completly redesigned over the next three weeks, once that is completed and we have the final lay out we will post the pics and hole descriptions.

here is a link to the McCLure course.
http://www.tulsadiscsports.org/mcclure.html

Don't change Haikey too much!!! I played McClure, Dovillio, and Haikey the last time I was there, and Haikey was my favorite! I've heard there are some bottlenecks, so I can understand removing those. The 500+ ft righty-anhyzer hole by the creek (#10, 11 or 12) is an awesome one. I'm sure all the courses will be top-notch.

Kevin McCoy is designing it so be ready for some challenges.

One hole you may remember, #7 the tunnel shot, now it goes the oppisite direction. So instead of shooting out of a tunnel, now its open and it narrows down the tunnel to the basket.

No worries, I'm just excited to see what you guys are planning down there. Don't make it too hard cause all the courses in Michigan are super easy.

I would suggest that if you would like one of these discs to get it very soon. There are less than 20 of the original 50 from yesterday.

ALL SOLD OUT FOLKS!

Thanks for your support. We will have three other designs coming in the near future.

See you at Worlds. ;)

Can anyone tell me how much entry fees are for this tournament. Can find it on any of the Worlds sites? Got an invite and now I've got the itch. Never say never! Russ3523 :cool:

I believe they will be $100 for golf, $5 ace pot and $10 field events.

As soon as my invite arrives in the mail, it is going back out for $115!

I normally don't enter Ace Pots, but with 9 1/2 rounds of golf, the likelihood is really high.

Tulsa here I come!

I agree with you as soon as my invite comes in its going right back out. I will enter in all the stuff such as the field events and ace pot. I can't wait for this tournament had a bad PDGA event last weekend so looking for this and Bowling Green to pull up my rating

Does anyone know if I qualified as a junior is there any way I can play in the advanced division without getting on a waiting list?

if you quailfieid under ANY category you will get an invite and can play WHATEVER division you qualify for(playing up sideways or age restricted)without having to worry about the waitlist
congrats

FYI- we are in the process today of ordering 48 new baskets and 72 new tees signs and we have 18 new baskets in house right now.

Thanks for your support of the Special Blend Orc Program and the Inncolor program. This has allowed us to provide you with all new equipment on all courses for worlds.

Dave.....Just curious which baskets we are ordering? Mach3, Mach5, Titans....

Insteps. :D

No, really, we will have 3 new courses of Innova, 1 new course of DGA and all DGA tee signs.

3 new courses of Innova



The new SkillShots with anchors :D

I think that would cause a riot at Worlds. ;)

I am getting a worlds tag and I wanted to know how many are out there, and if anyone is playing for them. I'd think that there will be a few at BG and am planning on going to a lot of A teirs this summer.
So, who's playing with them?

Sitting on #81 here in Dallas, TX and so far have 1 guy to play against on them....

come on people...this will put courses in the ground and make worlds better than ever!

I think the problem with bagtags, especially ones of that magnitude (geographically) is that the more players that have them, the more in-demand they are...kind of like the bigger the turnout for a tournament, the more people that want to play in it. I'm not sure how you get the hype bigger (other than locally, where I'm sure it's huge), but I wouldn't want to charge much for the tag. I imagine there is HUGE elasticity for the price for something like that. I.E. you'd sell more than twice as many at half the price, and thus have more overall proceeds. I can't imagine many people wanting to spend more than $5 on one unless they're REALLY benefited by it, or unless there are lots of players to compete against. I think a great way to sell them is to have it optional on the online PDGA renewal site. That way more people at least consider it when they're already making a purchase.

Long winded Henry :DMake the purchase now so you don't have to wait until Worlds...it is about supporting the sport and done correctly...the TDSA is still one of the best clubs in the nation and when it goes to further the Worlds and disc golf..get one..

and bring it next weekend to CH :D

Please ship quickly Rotan

...new shirt...I called you...ring me back

ATX has many tags shifting around...........under-rated we be...................hungry we rrr!!! :D:p ;) :cool:

I just ordered my tag. I will definately have it for Blowing Green, perhaps for Secret Squirrel Soiree too.

They offered the tags as the players pack for the Olahoma Open, so that is how a lot of us got them. But I would have bought one either way!

I'll be at SSS with my tag then. Also at BG.

I got my tag at the Oklahoma Open 05. I've only challenged with it three times. More people need to get them AND play with them! I've heard a couple of guys say, " I like the # I've got so I'm not going to challenge anybody with it."

AmWorld Tag # 40

Granted the tag purchase supports the tournament, but why would you buy one if you are not going to challenge with it?

You will still get a tag if you lose the challenge. What it is, is that these people are afraid of being beaten. I always accept tag challenges for the tags I hold. It is just a number, whats the big deal?

I have nothing against a person having a tag they do not use for challenges (unless it's in the top 10). I have a couple like that, but I have always bought a second tag to use for challenges.

If you are going to get a tag to keep, please also get a tag to use for challenges.

We have recieved another shipment of World's Bag Tags.

Get em here! (http://www.2006amworlds.org/)

Already ordered it. Now just waiting for it to ship. :D

Just ordered mine, and I will also be at the Secret Squirrel in Atlanta. :D

I have #72....and, NO one in my area has one. So, dont know if I will ever challenge with mine...except maybe at Worlds itself.

To me the tag will represent memories. I will have that tag on my bag for many years to come....it will always serve as a reminder of the great experience I had. This may be the only worlds I ever get to play in.....who knows. Plus, it helps support the TDSA, which is worthwhile even if it wasnt in conjunction with a major tournament.

Another course of baskets are being shipped to the club tomorrow. These are destined for Haikey Creek. :D

Actually, my tag is #78

#81 up in Dallas and also #76 I think...already lost it once :D

So what I am hearing is if I got #1 then I should buy another tag and use that during my round huh. To me that is weak play. If you have a low tag PLAY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

When should we expect for the invites to be mailed?

i would imagine sometime in march after the pdga summit in arizona like it has been for at least the last 5-10 years or so

I just bought my tag today

You guys should have someone that is going to Bowling Green bring some of the Worlds Bag Tags to sell I would buy one there.

I will play anyone for mine in Bowling Green when I go

We will send some over. We have some guys going that way.

Thanks

I just got number 067 in the mail today. I guess I might get to play someone at SSS here in Atlanta in March, but I don't really know anyone else in the ATL that is going and has one. :D

How can you get that # today and I bought mine before they even listed them for sale and ended up with #70something...????

I ordered mine a while ago, and hope to get it soon. I should have it when I am in Atlanta for the SSS.

As far as I know we are current on shipping tags. Please contact Joe and make an inquiry.

Yep, foot in mouth here. About 20 minutes after I posted that, I got home to see the package in the mailbox.

2006 Am Worlds Tag #60 is in Birmingham Alabama for now, untill I win a higher tag. ;)

Yeah..you know my boy Rotan is going to get hassled about this..I paid for mine before the TwistedFlyer.com website even went live last year...

and you Farkers ( thats for Rhett) even gave Terrill a # below #20 :D

I could really care less as it is all about the promotion of the Worlds and OK golf since I am a lifetime TDSA member, but whooo :D:D:D

Seriously..not a big deal..don't care about the #..I already found 1 whole DFW golfer with one and lost it to him for #81 anyway :o

You lost to Gary Duke? :D

You lost to Gary Duke? :D



DOH :D..yeah he got me by a few at the Poison Ivy Open.. :o

You lost to Gary Duke? :D



And what is that supposed to mean ?
If you had brougt a tag to Z-Boaz, you would have lost it to me as well. :cool::cool:

But I didn't, did I? :D:D:D

But when did you order and recieve your tag(s) Duke? Still trying to figure out how lower #'s are just now being mailed out than we have :o:D

I can answer that. I had tags in stock that Bill Moyers gave me to fill online orders with. When I ran out and demanded the remaining tags from him, they were lower than the ones I had been sending out. Another batch of tags has arrived and will be the next ones to be sent out. They begin with tag # 101.

and if you're just going to lose it to Gary, what does it matter how low your tag is? :D

I keep trying to get the rest of our guys to buy them but just 'ol Gary and I for now :D

Are you going to Waco Dukie :D

I'm not sure who you are talking to, but I will be in Waco.

Adam --- are you going to be in Waco this weekend? Been a while since I've had the pleasure of playing a round of golf with you...

Sure will Robbie...hopefully we can get a round in together. Looking forward to shooting the beast and seeing everyone.

Should be rolling in Saturday morning...see you then brother.

So with me buying mine sunday can you guestimate (guess or estimate) what my number will be

Oh. You carry those around in a bag now? What happened? Did your normal storage area get all plugged up? :o

The word "bag" was used n place of a banned word. :D

Ok here's the secret to throw 600'.......http://myspace-855.vo.llnwd.net/00514/55/84/514424855_l.jpg :D

The Host Hotel (http://www.selecttulsa.com/discgolf/) is now at 75% booked for the rooms we have blocked for Am Worlds.

We blocked off 332 rooms and all of their suites.
There are 82 rooms left.

Thank you

For those that have not made your reservations yet, I would suggest that you do so soon. This is where it will all be happenng, from registration, player events, player parties, ect,.......

There are plenty of additional hotels near by, but why do that when you could be at the Host Hotel? ;)

got my tag in its number 66 who wants a chance at it in BG?

TwoPutt

Is there a place in BG that I can buy one or do I just have to ask around.

I will be sending tags to the tournamnet. Probably with M. Conners or one of the other locals. As soon as I know who will have them, I will let you know here.

Thanks

I'll be at BG, Dave....I'll hook up with ya before I leave.

The Host Hotel is FULL

I waited to confirm travel mates and when I called this morning they said it was full but had rooms for $89.00 a night with an extended stay, the lady on the phone really wanted me to book it right then but instead she gave me a 24 hour reservation hold. Is there any way more rooms could be blocked for the tournament or any recommendations on alternate hotels to stay at near by?

Thanks

Sorry about the bad post, the Host Hotel is not full but the corporate office won't tell you that. I called the Tulsa Branch and asked to make a reservation, they transfered me to the corporate office who then told me that the rooms blocked under that code were full btu they could offer me a room at a reasonable rate. I called a friend to see if he was able to make a reservation and he said yes so I called back and asked to make a reservation, again they transfered me to the corporate office who this time told me I needed to call the hotel directly to book under the code PDG, so on the third try I called the Host Hotel directly and asked to make the reservation through the front desk and not the corporate office for of scam artists.

Moral of the story, don't give up and don't take no for an answer when making reservations at the Holiday Inn

I sent a email for the waiting list, does anyone know how to confirm that they got and that I am on it.

They should send you a confirmation e-mail stating you are officially on the list.

I sent my information in on the first. Do they wait awhile before they start sending them out.

I received my confirmation w/in a coupla/few days after my request to be put on the waitlist last week.
Perhaps you should try again.

Getting 'on' the waitlist is more important than being first on it...as their criteria for extending invitations off of the waitlist are based on your previous year's performance in relation to the players in your division in your state.
