Registration for the Pro event is now closed, we've reached maximum capacity. Those interested in getting on the waiting list can email masterscup@delaveagadiscgolf.com.

The amateur event closes on Wednesday unless it fills sooner.

The weather has cooperated with us and the course is looking beautiful. An army of volunteers were up there this weekend mowing, weed whacking, and repairing to get it in tip top shape.

It's a known fact that NorCal'ers don't submit much on the PDGA DISCussion pages. It's not that they don't have computers, it's, I guess, they're looking at porn(pure speculation) or something. This is a huge NT and there isn't much ado going on about it.
This is the sweetest of tournies if you are from NorCal. I am looking forward to it with extreme excitement. I hear that we will be playing 28 holes per day and the pin placements may not change. Volunteers have been primpng the course so it will look it's Spring best.
33 Grandmasters!!! It's like a "mini" Worlds.

Can't wait to see all of the major discers out there. KL

Your right, there aren't very many of us "Left Coast" posters, are there?

I was extremely impressed with the turnout in Grandmasters division. I can confirm that the course will not be changed throughout the weekend. It will be in the longest layout the whole time. The course is looking and playing great.

Sweet!!
Lost a lot of ground to those -10 in the 3rd round last year. Can't wait for this tournament, my fav of the year. You guys in Santa Cruz rock. :D

I just got confirmation that we'll be playing 27 holes all three days, not 28.

The Am Masters Cup is now full. The tee times have been posted at discgolftournaments.com (http://discgolftournaments.com/index.php?event_id=1c832e5c1&call_name=print_event s)

I'm regretting not signing up now but I couldn't secure inexpensive lodging and I didn't want to camp. Too bad for me. With 33 Masters....dang it.

Your right, there aren't very many of us "Left Coast" posters, are there?



Present!

couldn't secure inexpensive lodging



:oThere is NO inexpensive lodging in Santa Cruz :o

You must be prepared to PAY or camp... :p

I wish I could go BUT time does not allow it... :(

Speaking of which. There is always camping available at the Harding Ranch. Rob will take in anybody! You can't beat camping in Santa Cruz for $5.00 a day per person on a private disc golf course. There's info on the De laVeaga website (http://www.delaveagadiscgolf.com) .

Stan,
I didn't see anything about staying at Rob's. Where is it on the web site? thanks

Hmm, it's supposed to be there. I'll look into that. In the meantime:

You can contact Rob at 831.421.1355. Here's a Map (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=55+La+Selva+Dr,+Watsonville,+CA+9 5076&sll=36.947765,-121.849108&sspn=0.022362,0.035105&ie=UTF8&z=16&iwl oc=addr&om=1).

Since there are no more tourneys at Browns n Bows, what is the 2nd leg of the triple nugget?

Active in the Series AND you dont know???? /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
:p
I heard that they were going to do it at New Hogan... :D

I guess NOT!! With Mr Neal "Down" right now.....AND the "Idiot" being BANNED from the UFOS...it doesnt seem that anyone stepped up to run this one....
:p

Get on it Kenny!! :D

There was some discussion with Mr. Neal and Rob Byers about having it here in SF at the new course but we never heard back from them. Wouldn't be to hard to arrange but time is running short....

:AND the "Idiot" being BANNED from the UFOS...it doesnt seem that anyone stepped up to run this one....



Who got banned fron UFO's ??? BTW I bet for next year, if you contacted the boys in Oroville they might be interested in picking up that leg of the tripple crown.... Two 18 hole courses on the river that are very nice.. ( 10 original Steady Ed designed holes still remain on the north course) and a third course at the Forebay only 2 minutes away is in the works as well. Not to mention it will be the site of this years Nor-Cal champs!!

I have a solution for this. Just designate the SF Safari as the third leg. It's only slightly historical how that "city" was transformed by the gold rush. It's logical. Either there or one of the Sierra tourneys.

I won't be running any tournies in the middle of the week like Browns 'n Bows.

Or it could just be the Double Nugget! :o

Anyway, this week's Motherlode is the first phase. I hope to see some good golf this weekend. Who's going?

Oroville is having a tournament the same weekend as Motherlode.

DW would call that "Co-op-a-tition"... /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Thats a good way to LOOSE the NorCal Champs...Hold an event over the Motherlode???? :(
Bad form....

Are you sure that Oroville has the finals?

Only a vicious "rumor"...not verified... ;)

BUT if they are in the running...Id say this would/could hurt the chances.. :p

This tourney(oroville), I understand, is being put on by the city parks and rec in conjunction with the Rotary (or something like that). I don't know who picked the date.

Only 3 pro players will be paid-out when it's all said and done.

I am looking forward to playing the new 18 over at Oroville. I hope we have the finals there. KL

Is any information available online about it? (the Oroville tournament)

I was told that the Payout was something HUGE like $500 - $350 - $250.. :eek:
And that AT LEAST 1 TOP player from the region was skipping Motherlode because there is more cash to be had in Oroville :o

Again...NO FACTS to back this info up... /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I am trying to get the parks to put it on their website. They tell me it will be posted this Friday(4-20)Questions: FRRPD @ 533-2011 or chip @ 589-9986. Also, putting, long drive and CTP contests will be sponsored by Sunrise Rotary For $1 per event you want to play in. Hope to see you all there.

Here's an email sent out by the TD



Hello: Player
You are registered to play in this year's Steady Ed Memorial Masters Cup.

If you cannot fulfill your registration obligation, please, let me know as soon as possible.

I will return 100% of your entry, if you let me know that you cannot make it prior to the final setting of tee times [Wednesday evening May 16].

I will return 80% of your entry, if you notify me by Thursday night May 17. I will assume that you bought your spot, and will provide NO refund if you fail to notify by Thursday night May 17.

Tee Times will be posted no later than Wednesday evening May 16th.

Please, check discgolftournaments.com and or pdga.com for your scheduled tee-time. Tee Times will also be posted at the course and at DJ's mini-mart.

Please, arrive to hole #1 no later than 10 minutes prior to your scheduled tee-time.

The course is currently setup in tournament position. There are NO PLANS to alter the course setup during the event [No Hole Changes are planned]. Therefore, you will play the same course all 3 days. Of course, this is subject to change.

Holes 17 & 26A will be in play. The basket for Hole #26a will be set on Wednesday.

Holes 20 & 22 will not be in play.

You are welcome to warm up on Hole 20, prior to your round.

Rounds will take up to 5 hours to complete.

*******VERY IMPORTANT*********

After your round is complete, on Friday, your entire group is required to turn your scorecard in together. At this time, and this time only, you will receive your players package. IF YOU FAIL TO ADHERE TO THIS SIMPLE REQUEST, YOU WILL FORFEIT YOUR PLAYERS PACKAGE.

*******************************

If you have played the Masters Cup before, then you are aware of our most difficult task, PARKING.

Therefore, we ask that you consider carpooling, and parking above the lake at the ball golf course, especially if you are playing early. This would take a big load off our parking situation, and could allow for spectator parking.

You could also stop at the ball golf course; have a meal at the clubhouse. then hike in the 1/3 mile in to the discgolf course [it would be a good warm up]. We 'should' have a shuttle, however, it is ultimately your responsibility to arrive for your scheduled tee time.

If you choose to park at the course, then you must oblige the 'parking guides', and park how and where you are directed. Any objections [lip] will result in very bad karma.

There is alot going on, and many players may not be in town yet. However, I would like to have a 'non-mandatory' players meeting Thursday evening, at 5:30pm, hole #1, to answer questions, etc.

See you then.

Marty Hapner

I would like set all of you guys straight about the past discussion about the Oroville tournament and the NorCal Champs. :D

1) The local rotary sponsored and helped put on that non-sanctioned tournament to specifically happen during their Feather Fiesta day event and at this point have not become aligned with the schedule of the PDGA.. This is something that will come with time and more frequency of events.
This tournament had extra cash added from local sponsors, which made the payout what it was... 500, 350, 250. There is no intentional "bad form" here as this event is very small local non-sanctioned event. There was no choice on the date due to the fact that it has to corespond with the other non-disc golf activities. I only guessing, but I am sure Mike Travers and Chip have discussed this event and were fully aware of the conflict, but had no choice given the circumstances /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif


2) As I understand it, this is not a rumor. Mike Travers came out to Oroville early this year to meet with the TD Chip Frink, and check the facility out, and later told Chip that the NorCal Champs will be held in Oroville this year. :D


We need to support Oroville players and the course. The potential is huge and the people there deserve our help. :cool:

I would like set all of you guys straight about the ........ NorCal Champs. :D

<font color="blue">Possible BUT that decision is "usually" made by the "Commitee" and one of those members(Matt Kelly) seems to know nothing about it :confused: </font>

I was not aware of that little tid-bit of info.... either way I am hoping it happens. ;)

I'm hoping you are wrong about the efffect this recent non-santioned tournament in Oroville has on any decisions the commitee may make. :D

Especially considering the course has barely been open a year, and this weekend was the aniversary to the Park's grand opening /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

It sounds to me like there was NO conflict intended AND that it was based on a previously planned function... :cool:
So Id say that it probably doesnt affect a decision one way or another.. ;)

DID any top people show up?? that Cash is a tough one to pass on... :D

Possible BUT that decision is "usually" made by the "Commitee" and one of those members (Matt Kelly) seems to know nothing about it

Make that two committee members that haven't heard anything about this.

There has been no decision made regarding the location of NorCal Series Championships. As soon as a decision has been made, it will be officially announced on http://norcalseries.com/

I was unable to attend, even though it was practically in my backyard... :eek: I chose to do some family stuff over Mothers Day weekend... :D But I will more than likely get the scoop today at the course.. So I will post a recap as soon as I can.

Thanks for the reassurance about the commitee, I know if Oroville is the choice, it would be just what Oroville and the North State need to get on the map with the series and the PDGA.... Not to mention the likelyhood of the course going in in upper Bidwell park ;) Could be quite the area for tournaments :D

Thanks Steve,

I was just going on what I was told :eek:. I did not know about the commitee decision, and I eagerly and respectfully await it's decision and official announcement:D

2nd-Derrick Billings

Back on Topic,

Anyone know the details behind the skins match tomorrow?
Who is putting up the cash?
How the players were selected?
Will it be filmed?
Are any locals thinking of filming it?

Master Cup, yeah baby!!!

The skins match was today at 1:00. It is being sponsored by Tom Schott Sports, Well Within, Marty Hapner and The Sweet Spot. As far as I know the players were invited by the organizer of the event, Tom Schott. There was a film crew there, the same guys that are doing the Chains movie and they are locals. I didn't see any other cameras out there.

I left early, so I heard the results second hand. I think is was Steve Rico with 16, Ken Climo with 9, Des with 2 and Nate 1. It was 28 holes because both 17 and 8a were played. I watch for about 11 holes and it was a great show. There was a great turnout of spectators and it had the feel of an NT final nine.

I think the skins match was today.

Tee times are up.

Where are the live updates? NorCal, home of the internet industry? Shouldn't there be an RSS feed for scores? :)

:oUnfortunatly the "cell coverage" at the park is REALLY bad......

In the past Marty has phoned in updates that were then down loaded........

Not sure how they are doing it now... :)

It looks as though the scores are being updated as they finish... :D

Funkytown's own Chris Flesner comes out of the box with a 77, keep it up flesner.....

top 4,
a 4 digit, a teener, a 20,000 and for the first time, a 30Ker!
that's pretty amazing if you ask me.

The MPO second &amp; third cards tomorrow are no joke, lead card better keep the fire going!

Way to go Val, only women scoring in the 80'S!

I had the pleasure of playing with Chris today. He had a solid round and was great to golf with. I definitely hope he keeps it going.

The connection at the park is spotty as Magilla mentioned so, to avoid dual entry, we're updating Marty's discgolftournaments.com (http://www.discgolftournaments.com/index.php?event_id=1c832e5c195&amp;call_name=print_eve nts) as each card comes in and then uploading to PDGA (http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournament_results.php?TournID=6268) as each division finishes. Tomorrow and Sunday there will be live, hole-by-hole scoring (http://www.pdgatour.com/results.php?TournID=6268) of the lead Open card available on PDGATour.com.

Ok... So I'm just really excited about the PDGA National Tour being on the West Coast...

Did anyone notice how close the Open Women Division is?

Yes.....I know there are two more days of golf!!..
Just my two cent's worth..

First cards of the day rolling in now. Grandmasters first: http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournament_results.php?TournID=6268

There will be live hole-by-hole scoring of the top two cards in the Open division today.

http://www.pdgatour.com/results.php?TournID=6268

would love some first hand accounts of the tournament, including whether I am reading the live scoring correct which (I think) says that Josh Anton got a 2 on Hole 13 (I-5)?

Hole 13 was actually hole 12 since they played 8a. Notice how on the next hole the numbers are higher.

and a birdie on long 12 is nothing to sneeze at. :)

Josh parked hole 12.

This was another awesome tourney by the folks in Santa Cruz. I had time to spend the morning in court on Friday and still make my 2:00 tee time. I haven't said "your honor" that many times since I played ball golf!

We got a nice new disc golf umbrella and a sparkle rogue in our player package.

A lot of players beat me, but at least they weren't in my age protected division.

With the tee times it was awesome to be able to go out and hang with the big guns.

The weather was perfect. :cool:

I'd have to say that I had my B- game going all weekend. Twice on hole #6 I putted out of bounds! :oI never made it to the lead card, but was very glad to finish in 3rd. Even without winning I think that I probably had more fun than anyone out there. :D

Thank you Marty Hapner and the rest of the big dogs at DeLa for putting on a first-class show. KL

Almost forgot: Way to go Josh Anthon...Delta Windjammer!!!!

Awesome tourney as always Marty (and staff). :D

Yep.

Ams was awesome too.

Great job, Marty &amp; staff.

I'm already looking forward to next year!
:D
-JPB

what a great tournament.

want to thank Marty and the rest of the staff for all the hard work that they put in to pull this tournament off.

Had a blast playing with Steve G, Rico, Josh, Doss, and Yeti too bad I can only put together one good round a year on this course. Had some bad breaks but what can you do but try again next year.

You roc SC!!!!!!!! :D

what was that course like? I visioned it similar to Pease with elevation- is that true? I went to San Fran about 3 yrs ago and it rained everyday so I never had a chance to play it at all

:D :D :D :D Triple the elevation of Peace......going off what I played prior to the National Doubles in '99 /msgboard/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

;)

No matter HOW you describe DeLa...It'll be better than you envisioned, when you get there yourself.. ;)

:D

No way.
Every course in Texas sucks compared to dela. There are no hyzers on the entire course. Every hole has some elevation with some of them going up or down 150'+. You can get a 100' tourney roll from all 27 baskets. It is really hard to describe you just have to play it, and once you do you will realize how bad our courses in Texas are. We have got to be the worst state as far as getting usable land for courses.

We call that sunshine in Oregon and love the stuff, we play in it all the time, its great, your discs are always clean, and it help improve your grip!
