Pre Register @ TitleDisc.com (http://www.titledisc.com)


We are currently seeking sponsors for this event. If you are interested in advertising to the Oklahoma Disc Golf Community please e-mail me for sponsorship opportunities.

I forgot to mention there will be a Final 9 for the Pros (MPO) and Advanced (MA1) Divisions and the best scorer who isn't already qualifyed will earn that coveted spot as the Representative from OKLAHOMA for the USDGC!!!!!! :D

Wow. Holy Crap, Batman! :D

WHy not Oklahoma Disc Golfers Association.

Why pull people away from OKC, and Why Put Norman 1st?

Might be a mistake to exclude OKC golfers.

Thants just my Opinion



Jason

I will do everything I can to help OKC/Norman DG. But if its all about Norman, eventhought I'm a SOONER fan, I will not be as supportive as i would like to be.

It's not like that...OKC WILL have their own club. Remember what we talked about Schwake? There could be something huge on the horizon to UNITE the state of Oklahoma's disc golf clubs.

Something like 2006 Am worlds? ;)

Hi guys. I love overall events as that is what we did for many years in OZ and still do for the Australian Championships.

Can someone please answer the time and focus put on each event. As an example it can be hard to run a DDC event in a couple of hours. How many rounds of golf, how many MTA throws, DDC rounds etc.

I would also like to know how many people that are likely to play are good DDC players. I am a decent player and would need a good partner. Anyone interested.

Who Freestyles in OK?

And finally for the overall title does each event carry the same weight of points? That is an important one.

Thanks
Chris

I'm confused as to the OKC vs Norman attitude. :confused:
Aren't the Norman meetings an open invite? Does OKC have a club?

I don't think this is any different than TDSA running the States or SDG running the States...it's all the Oklahoma State Championships regardless which club's doing the work.

Having said that, ChrisP, thanks to you guys for doing the work!

Pre Register @ TitleDisc.com (http://www.titledisc.com)
... hey there ChrisP ... I went there to pre-register ... it's not listed on there ... :confused:

We are currently seeking sponsors for this event. If you are interested in advertising to the Oklahoma Disc Golf Community please e-mail me for sponsorship opportunities.

For the overall champion the Field events are all equal factors, the disc golf factor is double since you're playing more disc golf than anything. If you wanted to contend for the OVERALL championship you would want to compete in the highest division of disc golf whether you are going for PRO or AM Overall. EX. You would want to play in MPO instead of MPM because you would get more overall points for disc golf in MPO. For the AM overall you would want to compete in MA1 instead of MA2 for the same reason.

We do a round robin format for DDC and get most of the matches done on Saturday with a little time set aside for Finals on Sunday.

In MTA you get Five timed throws... You warm up as much as you like when you are ready we'll time you. You must make the CATCH for the time to count. You may also practice between your Timed throws just be sure the stopwatches are ready when you want to throw FOR REAL.

Distance is a crowd pleaser done on Sunday this year.

Freestyle will be held on Saturday afternoon and you are judged on different criteria. Routines are three to five minutes in length and are evaluated by judges who base their scores on the difficulty (10), artistic impression (10) and execution (10) of the routine. The team with the highest score wins (30 is a perfect score).

Thanks for the info Chris. I hold a few Australian Overall, Freestyle and DDC Championships so may need to add an Amercian one to the list :D

So who in OK can freestyle or DDC. I need a good partner :p

Thanks Paul, Sorry Wayne!!

The information is in to Title Disc.... It's up to them now... It should be up SOON!

:cool:

... cool ... :cool:

ChrisP, I wasnt trying to be negative. Let me know what I can do.

Why don't you ask me what you can do? :D

Why don't you ask me what you can do? :D



I thought the sheep had it covered and you and Red Hair Aggie were fighting over the sheep? :eek:

Red on the head like a dick on a dog Aggie Boy, is my lil bo-peep. :o

And after tomorrow's round you can hear him Bahahahah all the way back to Mommy and Daddy, begging for a ride back to school, where no one knows him. :D

I can't get this out of my head now....

Red rocket! Red rocket! :D

I'm confused as to the OKC vs Norman attitude. :confused:
Aren't the Norman meetings an open invite? Does OKC have a club?



Dont be confused, it's really pretty simple. The Normans are just mad cuz Norman is really just a Southside of the Southside of OKC :eek:...now that's pretty bad.

As far as the club in OKC goes. We had the best club President in the state...till he collected $5 from a mini 1 day. The dish ran away with the spoon and Blake ran away with the pipe. :o

Coming down for this one Cam? We're short one sandbagger...... :eek:

wish I could, I'm just hoping to be able to make it in July for Cam Worlds in Tulsa ;)
I don't think they'd let me play Adv div at Dolese anymore :D

Online Registration is UP and Running at:

www.TitleDisc.com (http://www.titledisc.com/Events/31stOFDSC.php)

There will be a $5 DISCOUNT for Pre-Registration PLUS a Free Gift, token of our appreciation for getting in early.

Also, Just found out some good news: The First Annual Griffin Park Open will be a USADGC Regional Qualifying Event!!!! ;)

We need the ladies to step up and represent in the State Championships this year.

We only had FOUR Women in all divisions last year.

One Advanced
Two Intermediate
One Junior

Get involved in the field events as well, you know we will have SWEET trophies for Overall Women's Am and Pro Champions and possibly some Women's Field event trophies but I can't promise until I see I have enough women Pre-Registered in field events! :(

Count me in...it's already on my calendar.

Does anyone know what happen to Erin Tyron? I played this event with her last year and haven't seen her in probably 5 months. Is she still playing?

We are not allowed to collect money at Dolese Park without a $150 permit SOOOO, the State Championships will not be accepting any sign-ups on Saturday. You MUST pre-register for this 90 Player Max event. You can sign up at the doubles in Norman the night before the event, at a local mini (more details to come), or the easiest way

Title disc.com (http://www.titledisc.com)

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

90 Player's max at a State championship tournament :confused:

Yup, We are only using one course at a time so..

18 holes X 5 per hole = 90....for the disc golf event anyway.

Insert Horse Laughter here! :p :p :p

90 Player's max at a State championship tournament :confused:



Yeah, I was wondering the same thing...90?

Yo ChrisP, is it because you guys don't have the TD manpower to use 2 courses?

Thx,
mc

That decision was based on last year's attendance..... If there is enough interest we could do two pools and put in Will Rogers and Lions.

10-4 big fella!!

Thanks for beefing up the interest MC! I'm going to paste a post from the NDGA forum here just in case y'all didn't see it.

Chrisp, I still do not see the registration form.

Go to the Calendar. Select States on the Calendar. There is a link for the entry form on the left side of the Logo.

I see some entries coming in!

this is on father's day weekend.....I'm missing too many chances to play.....norman pro am ..memorial day weekend ....mitch's....4th of july weekend....

this sux......LIB... :p

Priorities......Hey it's your day, do what you want to! :D

Only 12 days left to register on www.TitleDisc.com (http://www.titledisc.com/Events/31stOFDSC.php) !

Don't see many entries rolling in from T-Town?! C'mon y'all, put your shovels down and take a break. Only four more days to register on TitleDisc.com (http://www.titledisc.com/Events/31stOFDSC.php) ! :cool:

With a $40 entry I was excited to play pro at states this year but I can't justify paying for gas, hotel, food and beverages just to play 1 round of golf per day.

The field events will absolutley benefit by only having 2 rounds of disc golf so I'm sure it will work out for you guys.

Looks like I'll be working on courses as usual during states.

Come to think of it, how many Norman guys have actually shown up and helped with Worlds courses? I can only think of one guy:

DIGGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Arkansas guys live farther away than the Normanites and they have shown up in large numbers!!

Am I wrong here or is Digger the only one who has graciously dontated their sooner time?

Conners I can probably arrange a place for you to stay if you want to go and a ride. I have a friend that lives in OKC.
I played Griffin Park and it was a lot harder than it looked or I made it harder. It would be nice if all the boxes were the same, either concrete or gravel and not a mix of both. On gravel boxes I would wear different shoes than I would for concrete.

MC... We only have about 5 guys in Norman that are willing to work on courses in town much less than an hour and a half away. :confused: It sucks, there's alot more Billy Lunds here than in Tulsa!! :o No offense Billy. Two of the guys that work on courses here have already made it to T-Town...the other three will make a workday one of these days. We have been super busy putting in pads and signs and other amenities to Griffin Park in preparation for the GPO the last week of April, improvements and clean-up of Lions for the ProAm, and now States this weekend. We've been quite busy here in Norman. Don't take for granted that every place is like Tulsa, cause it's NOT! Way to go TDSA!

Will novice play the AM pad's at Dolese?....Is there AM pad's at Griffin?

There are "RED" tees at Griffin for holes 1,2,4,and 9. The Juniors will play these tees if they want to. Everyone else will play the "Gold" tees.

What about dolese??

Have you decided if you are playing yet?

Yea i will be there :D

It sucks, there's alot more Billy Lunds here than in Tulsa!! :o No offense Billy.



That comment is in poor taste ChrisP. Billy may not help out as much, but there are certainly players who help less and aren't being called out on it. Find someone who isn't trying to be a responsible DAD to bag on.

In my opinion, you owe him an apology.

Bolstead, WTF? I said NO OFFENSE, Hello? Other people were using B. Lund as an example because he would be playing dg at Mohawk instead of working on the course. That's why I was using him as an example of what most of the players around here are like. Not a personal shot, just repeating what Tulsa guys have said to get my point across. Good natured smack talk ;) Why do you have to take comments on here so seriously?

Billy gets rode harder than a pony at the carnival about not showing up! There is no need to pile on, especially since he's not a Norman person.

That's all - Smack talk would be saying Billy can't win Worlds (although this would be b/c he's not registered /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif)

I thought it was a low blow myself.

PS - Good luck with your tournament. I wish that I could play, but I can't get the wife to sign-off on it.

:D:D:D:D:D:D

Start getting used to that one.

:D:D:D:D:D:D

Thanks Jason,

I know what you mean about the wife, Twoputt knows as well.
I didn't mean anything mean by the comment, just that I know how hard it is to get people to come out and work instead of play.


Redhair- I don't know anything about - LOW BLOWS What you and TwoPutt do to reconcile your differences is none of my business.

I don't what it is with those guys. I went out to Mohawk one day and Red was holding wood and Twoputt was screwing it. :o

I think it involes a stud chain.
http://www.horse.com/itm_img/BNH03.jpg and heard i heard some rustling over in the woods! :eek:

I also understand how frustruating it is to be busting your *&% at the course and then a group of guys walks by while playing a casual round and says "nice job guys" and doesn't even offer to help. :mad:



ChrisP, I hear you big time....when I see casuals playing while I'm busting my arse it makes my blood boil.

IMO, Billy does not deserve any criticism, he works the graveyard shift and then takes his daughter to school immediately after work. He sleeps for about 5 hours and then has to get up and go pick his daughter up from school. Then he has to keep an eye on her until his wife gets home from work. Then he goes to work and the process starts all over again.

He lives right by me and I see his car at home, it's not like he is out playing all the time on the new courses.

wow i saw that too

Hey! :mad:

Leave my Opie alone! :o:D

I think they're going to be out there screwing tonight. I guess I'd better take a bucket of cold water to throw on them just in case. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
