The first A-Tier event for 2007 on the west-coast is ready to go! The Las Vegas Gentlemen's Club Challenge, a three-day, one round a day event, will be held 2/23, 2/24, and 2/25 at Sunset Park. The event is hosted by seven guys who are "gentlemen" on the disc golf course. This event is NOT affiliated with any adult-themed establishment.

Entry form, sponsor list, and sign-up lists are available to review at lvdiscgolf.com and lvbagtag.com.

Last year, $7,000 ADDED between Pros and Ams, mostly due to a $5,000 sponsorship from Innova.

Spots are limited, so sign up ASAP.

you should already have my entry!!

So I'm from Jersey planning on coming out for this event. Can any locals here help me out a little? I'm gonna be meeting up with some friends in Vegas to hang out, so I'm gonna want a hotel that is close to some action, yet still close to the tournament.

Also there's a thin chance I won't have a car (I'm trying to talk my AM2 buddy into playing). Any ways to the course shy of me renting a car?

I'm really looking forward to my first time in the state, but I definitely am pretty clueless. Thanks!

The course is located fairly close to the strip. The airport is in the way so it isnt exactly walking distance (although someone tried last tourney). A cab isnt too bad of an option, but both ways can become pricey.Just about any hotel on the south side of the strip would be close enough to the course. There is plenty of "action" everywhere so just picka hotel with a decent rate. Id recommend reserving as soon as you can.

You can PM me if you have more questions. I just woke up and am probably not thinking straight.

Is pre-registering necessary?

if you want to play :D

since they are going to 3 days this year and only a week before the memorial i would think that some of those travelling will help fill vegas too!!

i know i will!

keith

Pre reg is a must.

lvbagtag,com (http://lvbagtag.com) for entry form and info. This one always gets close to filling. This year we are expecting to reach capacity.

Check is IN THE MAIL!

Now I just have to figure out how to get there with no car if my buddy doesn't sign up.

When will a pre-reg list be posted? (My buddy doesn't know if he'll play, and will probably late until as last minute as he can, so he wants to keep tabs on registration)

Pre Reg. is posted at lvdiscgolf.com and lvbagtag.com.

Thanks - how big is the pool gonna be? If there are 24 holes, does it follow that there will be a max of 120 players? Or do you guys not play with 5somes?

It is a staggered start-Tee times. We can have alot more than 120 with that format.

[Burns] Excellent....

First group tees at 7 AM. Last group tees at 2 PM. The order of play is beginner groups first and then move up with Open teeing last. Therefore, on Sunday, the top Open group tees at 2 PM and many other participants who have already finished thier rounds can join the group as a gallery. There were about 40 people walking with the top Open group last year.

If we tee a group every 10 minutes, we can fit 172 people. (Which we should exceed this year.) If we tee a group every 9 minutes, we can fit 192 people. If we tee a group every 8 minutes, we can fit 216 people.

50 sign ups so far. I've heard 20 are in the mail. A lot of east-coast faces showing up. Strong FPO and MPO fields so far.

InnColor discs will be one girly-girly image with three different backgrounds to choose from. THEY WILL GO QUICK!!!!!!!

I will be heading out there again this year but I am in need of some floor space and possibly a ride from Vegas to Scottsdale for the Memorial so if anyone can help me that would be amazing!!! See you guys soon!!!

My potential ride is completely out (he will not even be in Vegas), so I definitely need to figure out how to get to and from the course. I'm staying 2 miles north of the Strip. It looks like it's almost a straight line, so it's maybe only 10 minutes from the course. Any ideas?

derek - Mitch and I will probably be there. we'll chat later.

Can we get an updated pre-reg list? I'm trying to decide if I'll play. If there aren't any other am women, I'll probably not play.

my traveling partner and i are also looking for someone to trip down to phoenix after the tourney, preferably sometime monday. otherwise steve, we'll be renting a car monday and taking it down through phoenix to tucson. you could definately ride with, fill us in on some toboggan tips.

Not many Am women yet, but the Pro Open Women is looking pretty good.

Course has just been amended. Instead of playing 24 holes, you are playing 20 holes. 5 holes have been combined to make them very long holes. These are 1 to 2, 4 to 5, 13 to 14, 16 to 17, and 22 to 23. Another hole (Hole A) as been added near tournament central. Distances being measured soon.

Im looking for a place to stay while im in town so if anyone knows any cheap motels or has some floor space for me it would be greatly appreciated!!! Also looking for a pick up from the airport on the 20th when I get in since im not old enough to rent a car!!! Id be willing to throw some money your way for a hook up on either!!! Thanks in advance :D

are there going to be mando's or can you just throw over the ball fields??
all of these combo holes (except 1) play around the ball fields when put together...this could be an issue with tee times as some groups may play them with people on them when others groups may play them with nobody on the fields making it an unfair advantage if there are no mandos to prevent people from throwing over the fields...

just a thought that needs to be addressed before tournament time

[/QUOTE]

Im pretty sure you can risk throwing over the fields if you want. No mandos. However, I do not see your point. I dont see people being in the fields as an advantage/disadvantage. To me, the shot is the same either way. Friday and Sat. should be no problems with park users in the ball diamonds. Sunday there is usually a league that uses the field that holes 1-5 wrap around. I hope they are not there that weekend. We usually have to fight with them or skip hole 1 and 5.
Am I missing something that you are talking about? See you soon!!! :D

Am I missing something that you are talking about?


If there is no game going on and the field is empty, the only thing the thrower needs to consider is whether they think they can clear the fence.

If there is a game going on, then the thrower has to worry about disrupting the ball game, possible pegging an outfielder, and then dealing with the crowd in the stands.

If there is a game gong on for some competitiors and not for others, then it is not a level playing field for all competitors. If there are mandys that prohibit throwing over the fences, then it is a level playing field.

I think that's what Keith is getting at. :)

I can see that. I guess since i play it all the time, it makes no difference to me if there is people there. They act like we are not there, so we act like they are not there. Disrupting their game is the last thing I worry about. :D

I wonder what Jacquart will say about this. I dont think Ive heard too many people complain about this during tourneys. I cant remember an issue other than ata few monthly events weve had. Jeff usually does a really good job of reserving all the land we need for the tourney.

Another thought. Is the actual shot harder, or is it just mentally tougher? I think just mentally tougher.

this is golf, "mentally tougher"= "actually harder". i've played sunset a bunch of times on trips to vegas and the presence/absence of people on the ball fields definitely has an effect on me that locals quite likely don't feel.

this looks like a fun 1 if I can swing it somehow;how much would it cost to get a prostitute to caddy for a day? maybe I can get the card to chip in if she will take score,I got shotgun though. :D

I know its golf. I know mentally tougher=tougher. I agree that I dont feel the same way about it as people who dont play there everyday. After thinking it over, I believe this is one situation the TD has NO control over. If people are in the diamond, they paid to be there and have every right we do. I dont think the park would consciously not schedule an event fpr the diamonds. They generate WAY more money than disc golf does. In vegas (as in most places) money talks.

I just think this is one thing we cant do anything about (if it is even an issue).

Depends on the quality of the girl. Cracked out with no teeth= $10-$20 a day. You could spend up to $10000 a night (day) for Playboy caliber! :o:D

I'm there. :cool:

i agree that the td has no control over whether there are people on the ballfields, however the td does have control over whether players are penalized/rewarded for throwing over the ballfields. (although if there were mandos on the ballfields keith probably wouldn't have given me the victory my last time out there by tincupping on #3- i don't throw far enough to try to go over that one)

I think Keith's point is that someone with one tee-time might not have anyone on the field and have to option to go for it, whereas another player with another tee-time might not have that option because the field is in use at that time.

Using mandy's so that you can not throw over the fields, period, would make the course play the same no matter when any particular player happened to be playing.

Since I am playing "speaking for Keith" here, I believe he is bringing it up now so that the TD can consider this and make a decision and have it all handled prior to the tourney so that it can't become as issue during the tournament. :)

Plus Keith knows he should throw a roller on 3, and he wants to be forced to do so.

...and/or posted about...for months on end! Here's your fire & your fire extinguisher... :) :eek:

I think people playing in disc golf tournaments should lighten up a little. One could also argue that someone walking down the adjacent sidewalk or driving in a car too fast next to the tee box gives some players disadvantages.

I also cannot control the wind throughout the day, so it may be windy at 9:17 AM, and rainy at 10:23 AM, but perfect weather at 11:13 AM.

P.S. The ballfields have ALWAYS come into play at every tournament hosted at Sunset Park!!!

I've never seen the course, but I imagine a 450' thumber should answer this question nicely. :)

Update...Almost $6,000 sponsored towards event. Almost 60 entries...mostly Pro, including 6 FPO!!!!!!

No Juniors or Intermediates yet, so should be a fast tournament!!!

can't wait!!! only a few weeks away and with Saturday the 24th being my birthday maybe I will be able to hit a putt or 2!

happy birthday JC!

speaking for myself now :Dbut rhett and john knew what i meant being td's themselves

having not dealt with tee times for past vegas tournies(which i have played at since 1999) it is something for the td(which i have been doing since 1996)to consider since things are different for different times of day on the ball fields...i have NEVER played an event there where at least one ball field had no one on it....

i am sure jeff would like to consider this as it is no different to make mando's on hole that you are TRYING to make tougher by making them tougher for ALL players...
by the way hole 13 has a mando on it to keep people from throwing over the ball fields and i have NEVER heard anyone complain that they had to play the mando....

i just thought that bringing up now gives everyone time to discuss options of what to do so that it doesn't become a morning of tournament snap decision...

i will play either way as i still love the events, city and great guys involved with the local vegas scene...i have always been a solid sponsor and helper and will continue to do so even if they make decisions i don't agree with.

i just throw it out there because i think that FAIRNESS should be one of the main tenets of disc golf competitions and having no mando's on holes that wrap around the ball fields is not fair to ALL players

keith

I say make it a mando that you NEED to throw over the ballfields if you want more challenge. :)

My Bday is friday the 23rd!!! Im hoping to make 90% from 20 and in!!! Maybe the beers the night of my birthday will help me relax on saturday!!! :D:D:D

Im coming out but I still dont have a place to stay and I cant find any online reg anywhere!!! Do I have to send a check in for this one???

Marsha and I are going to try to send in our reg tonight for this one. Be nice to get out of CO for a few days to somewhere a bit warmer :)

****........The SonderMullet is making it out for a tournament??? I thought you retired bro!!! It will be nice to see again in Vegas!!!

Are there still open spots? I got the ok to come out for the event.

Kevin,

Did Hoyt authorize this. What if he needs your caddying services?

Kevin,

:D

Is there an updated players list some ware?

BOTH SonderMullets will be in attendence. I think that will only happen one (or possibly two) other times in 2007.

Plenty of room. Have almost 80 players. Can fit around 200. Must send in a check. No paypal account.

My web partners (lvdiscgolf and lvbagtag) are busy beavers, and will update the sign up lists as soon as they get a free moment. Both work-aholics, have young kids, demanding better-halves, and too busy to play golf...let alone update their websites as quickly as everyone would like.

Updated this AM...includes current registrations, sponsors, course map, and GCC logo.

LVBagTag (http://www.lvbagtag.com)

thanks for the map and consideration jeff!!!

see you in a few weeks!!

keith

Over 80 players and $6,000 in sponsors. Will have over 100 by the end of the weekend.

Get your entries in the mail NOW!

Very draft course map posted at lvbagtag.com

Costs to reserve softball fields is $100/$200 each day, so, just like all the other tournaments I have ran at Sunset, there may be softball players playing on the fields during our tournament, but not on Friday.

Are there places on the course that are NOT OB? :rolls eyes: I can't wait.

I hope all of the Vegas boys are getting psyched up for this, and all of you out of towners can use this for a great memorial tune up.

Thats exactly what I plan on doing!!! Want to get together for a round the week prior and some pre birthday drinks???

Ok, so Marsha fought a mountain a lost (the mountain jumped her when she wasn't looking) and needs surgery so she's out for this one but I'm still planning on coming. Hopefully send in a check this week if there's still spots available. I know MillZ wants to pick me up from the airport right, and drive me to the hotel, right?? :)

If I was 25 and had a rent a car down there and hell maybe even a place to stay I would be all over it!!! I dont have a place to stay and if I dont find one it looks like I might not be able to make it out to Vegas for this great tournament and my birthday!!! If anyone at all can help me with a piece or floor or anything that would be great!!!

Hope to see you all in less than a month but who knows!!!

hope marsha, marsha, marsha is ok, ok, ok. those mountains can be tricky.

I don't know you, but any friend of the MiTTenZZ is a friend of mine. Look for a PM.

Yeah Derek (Fats) is my brother and has a room but presumably already PM'd you about it. It looks like the best option is going to get my own rental car for the weekend so I'll have flexibility and all that good stuff. I just got my flight tonight and am flying in late Wed night (9:15ish?) and can hopefully crash on someones floor for just Wed night?? I plan to get at least one round in Thursday for practice since I'll really need it. Playing once a week in snowstorms while it's 15 out isn't really helping my game...

Almost 100 entries as of today. 7 FPO (A W E S O M E ! ! ! !)

Course map is final and will be posted soon at lvdiscgolf.com or lvbagtag.com. Average hole length is 427 feet. 20 holes.

Get your entries in the mail VERY SOON. Will likely fill up two weeks BEFORE the event.

did the mandos stay?

see you in 23 days!!!

Finally getting around to sending in my reg today! It better be 80 and sunny when I get there...

Hey Kary or Rob is my element-x still in the tree on hole 5?

Hey Kary or Rob is my element-x still in the tree on hole 5?



I have no idea. What tree. not likely considering some of the winds we had a few weeks ago. Nice spelling of my name. :p

My bad CARY* lol but i dont know how to explain what tree it was in. I tried to go straight over them with the element-x so it would be in the last tree on left. Does that make sense? It was also near the very top from where it was there was noting you could throw at it. I was just wondering because I got an ace with the only one of that color I had left.

It's still up there. I looked this morning.

Sending my Reg in tomorrow and Ill see you guys on the 21st!!! Cant wait to get some warm weather practice and play in!!! :D:D:D

I wonder if that thing will ever come down. That's crazy that's what 4 months its been in the tree

anyone else having a problem getting on www.lvdiscgolf.com (http://www.lvdiscgolf.com) website? I can get on www.lvbagtag.com (http://www.lvbagtag.com) but it isnt updated.

Jon,

I know Scotty and Jordan are traveling together. They may have room for another.

Doug and Jim are going.

So far in my car, are Cary, Chuck, and myself. We also have one of the suites at the host hotel. Pretty sure Cary is bringing his air matress and crashing on the floor. Were you wanting to do the same? Not sure how much I can cram into the Magnum... Are you playing?

I am not in YET. I keep trying every angle to get them to let me in. I am 3rd on the wait list. No matter what I am going even if i just caddie for cary and party at dukes.

I am probably driving myself because i have the the monday after off and i might visit with some friends on sunday night and drive back monday. i am just trying to scroung up some floor space for my air mattress as well if i can't stay at my friends house.

I'm STOKED! My first time in Vegas! Although I hope there's SOMETHING to do there... I heard the nightlife in Vegas is kinda... eh... :)

It's certainly no Fair Lawn NJ!!

Hey now!!! I just want to know you know???

See you in 4 days!!!

The first A-Tier event for 2007 on the west-coast is ready to go! The Las Vegas Gentlemen's Club Challenge, a three-day, one round a day event, will be held 2/23, 2/24, and 2/25 at Sunset Park. The event is hosted by seven guys who are "gentlemen" on the disc golf course. This event is NOT affiliated with any adult-themed establishment.

Entry form, sponsor list, and sign-up lists are available to review at lvdiscgolf.com and lvbagtag.com.

Last year, $7,000 ADDED between Pros and Ams, mostly due to a $5,000 sponsorship from Innova.

Spots are limited, so sign up ASAP.


I wish I could be there to see this one. It looks like it will be a heck of an event. Watch out for Cale, he's playing very good right now. If this event determines the best gentleman in the game, though, my money's on Barry. He would be a fine representative for any sport.

Watch out children....you'll get yours.

Anyone got a place for me to crash Wed nite? I'm coming out of retirement for this event...be nice to be put up somewhere. If someone already has a hotel room with an extra bed or floor space, i'll have a little money to throw their way. If not, i'll book myself a room sometime tomorrow evening.

Thanks Millz, guess I'll see you Wed nite! Got your voicemail.

sweet...the pro men tee off after midnite :eek:...while i'll be at the roulette tables, with plenty of time to rest for my 11 in the morning tee times :D

see you all in a few days!!!

keith

Nice, I can golf at night and hit the casino's and pools all day! Not sure if that's the way to go...maybe it's hit the casino's and pools all day, then hit them all night and repeat. Hmmm.

30% chance for rain on Friday, low 60's thru the weekend.

We haven't hit above 30 in about a month. 60's is heaven.

VEGAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I leave in three days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Pre-reg lists are current as of last night.

If you were waiting 'til the last minute to sign up...you may have waited too long.

Per Jeff,
Tournament is likely full. Do NOT put any entries in the mail. Do NOT plan on signing up Thursday or even Friday. Call Jeff (702-458-5025) to see if spots are left. Stating that you will sponsor a hole for $30 may make room for you!

Can someone bring an extra umbrella for me just in case? I'm not flying with one and I'd hate to buy one with no intent to bring it back.

hell yeah!!

Barry in the lead with 59, lots of players behind him.

Go Barry...eat 'em up

just me, or do a lot of the ratings look a bit low?

Good first round Mark Martin - keep it rolling. Daryl, get those strokes back tomorrow!

just me, or do a lot of the ratings look a bit low?

Barsby here

reporting that the ratings may be a little low. The wind was about 17mph STEADY. and gusts of up to 30 mph!! it was definatly tougher than what is on paper. In my opinion.

The ratings are low because EVERYONE'S involved. And the wind was calmer in the morning. So an intermediate guy throws 67 right, and then teh winds pick up and and a pro throws the same score. Lots of low scores used as propagators, if I were to guess.

Doesn't quite explain my 882, but I was hoping it would be lower to be dropped automatically. That one's gonna haunt me.

second round results?

CARY TROTTER KICKS A**!!

round of the day 52!

bested Barry by 1

Hey Barsby, haven't seen you yet, are you even in Vegas??? We're all hitting the strip, find us.

JON CANONICO IS THE BEST CADDY IN THE WORLD!!!

What'd you do dude?

Looks like Vegas got som Oklahoma wind going on NICE!!

Barry wins Pro

Mark Martin wins Masters:

in a playoff that didn't happen..the other guy (??) twisted his foot or ankle and couldn't play a play-off hole

DJ took 4th in GrandMasters

way to go DJ and Mark...

MARK MARTIN IS MY HERO

What about Am 1? Where did Zig end up?

What about Am 1? Where did Zig end up?



Results are UP. Looks like Zig tried to come back but couldn't eliminate the 4 stroke lead and maintained 2nd in Am1. His streak of I believe 5 or so sanctioned wins in a row was broken.

Zig 2nd place, 2 strokes off 1st, $115.

Dont hurt yourself in Colorado this week, Keith....no excuses ;)

Big up to Cary T. and Cale L.! Nice work fellas.



Thanks Tanner!!!

Cary -

What discs were you throwing in the high wind conditions?

"Go To" driver, mid and putter?

Cary -

"Go To" driver, mid and putter?



A brand new 175 Champion Firebird for my main overstable driver. I would go to the Star Max if it was a really long hole.

For Mids it was a brand new 180 S-Line MD1. They are way overstable, and hold a really good line in the wind. A super beat up Ching Roc came in really handy for tailwind drives and approaches.

For putting, its always a 175 dx BB Aviar. I was using one of the new ones for approaching. A slightly used one for main putter.

Thanks!! :D

Very impressive to help run such a big event and place so high in such a prestigious field C.T. Congrats to you.
and Cale is on a tear throwing the best final round to tie for second after sweeping the Big Show here in DFW.
but the real story is that the finest gentleman in disc golf prevailed to show once again he's no. 1 Way to go Barry

Thanks Jeff and staff, as always, great time in Vegas.

The Memorial is next!

thanks to jeff and the other gentlemen who put together the GCC. the wind kicked my butt, but i had a blast none the less meeting a ton of new people from around the country and seeing some people i had not seen in a while. it was my first trip to vegas and i hope to return again in the future. thanks again for all the hard work you guys put in. - chris young.

Howdy LV golfers, I'm trying to contact Jon Canonico 23588 because he loaned me a disc at the Memorial and I couldn't find him after the round. I'd like to get a hold of him to say thanks and see if I could mail it back to him. If anyone knows how to contact him, please PM me. thanks from Michigan guys, Joe :cool:

We're processing the GCC for ratings and broke the divisions up into three groups on Friday and Sunday when the high wind in the later rounds boosted the SSA on the course by more than 6 shots on Sunday and 4 on Friday.

You're my hero, Chuck. Though something tells me all the tweaking in the world won't make my 81 respectable.

So you guys didnt touch Saturdays round when it was calm? I hope my 1075 is still in tact! :o

I am curious to see how they look now! Thanks for doing this. It needed to be done.

Didn't touch Saturday. The TD provided excellent wind notes in the report. I pulled up the division play order from the flyer which was still online. Then entered player ratings and scores for each division in time order on my SSA calculator to see each division's SSA value. Then grouped divisions together with close values for the official processing. I think players will find this is prettty fair once the ratings come out, considering the circumstances.
