oh yeah (http://www.accuweather.com/forecast-hourly.asp?partner=accuweather&zipcode=27597&metri c=0&hbhday=3&hbhhour=8)

That advance field is loaded with great players, I predict you will need to shoot 3 950s to make the cut. Gonna be exciting to watch that leaderboard move around. Some of the advance moved south to Intermediate, can't say I blame them. The crosstown champion is going to be the one with his A game 4 sure..

Mini Thumber, Cool Vanilla Hemi Time T-41hrs. Make the cut Rock :p



2 more 'big guns' into the mix in Brian Jones and Caleb Wood

I'm thinking the winner of advanced will be right about 1000 rated for the whole weekend!!! CRAZINESS FOLKS!

Im also thinking duke will need 1000+ rated shooting to take out UNC this time! ;) (dont worry rock... i dont really care either way... just giving you a hard time)

So is registration closed or what. I wont know if I can make it until tomorrow. Thanks



Sorry, but registration is closed.

High rated rounds may be hard to come by on Saturday! :D

we could always start at 1 and have the second round glow

i like rain... helps the thumbers tombstone and puts others off their game :)

bring on the rain and wind. gonna be a great time.

From the looks of things, Par on saturday will be 1000 rated

You may be right Rain pants, I meam white pants

From the looks of things, Par on saturday will be 1000 rated



Par probably SHOULD 1000 if the weather holds like it it says it will.

However, with highest rated player being 975 and no pros in the field, Ams will get screwed in thier rating.

then how did the winners average 984, 995, 988 the last 3 years?! ive wondered about that (and this is where Chuck Kennedy magically pops up)... does it really impact the field that much not having any UBER Pros in the mix? seems like the ratings are aligned with other tournies but i guess its hard to tell.

what would you say the SSA is for both courses? looking back its kinda interesting that both even out ~50

SSA at Zeb is around 51. Cedar is around 49, typically.

These are both traditionally, obviously.

However, for ams, they usually work out about the same b/c ams blow up at Cedar.

Pros shoot much better at Cedar than at Zeb and it is about even in the am division.

Yeah, it impacts the field. Look at tournaments where pros played the same layout as the ams just at different times. Burlington tournaments is a really easy place to do this. Or Buckhorn rounds 2 and 4 for the intermediates b/c everyone played the shorts on 1 and 3 but only intermediates played them all 4.

IT is a lot better than it use to be but until ratings are based off the course and not who plays it and what they shoot, they are pretty much inaccurate.

For those interested in checking in Friday night, here are some directions! (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=15265952686422763318,35.845 700,-78.644125&saddr=&daddr=4801+Six+Forks+Rd,+Raleigh, +NC+27609+(St+Mark's+United+Methodist+Church)&sll= 35.83069,-78.60262&sspn=0.09784,0.160675&ie=UTF8&z=16)

Pre-check in is available from 5 - 9

The rain may be out earlier, and the wind, was that at Zebulon where things are a bit more open. Wind could be a big factor. Duke will need to be shooting good sat night to offset that other teams power, but if they are. Look out! :D

Mini Thumber, playing up to Intermediate. Cool Vanilla Hemi Time T-36hrs :)

Rock, The TarHoles will kick some Dook Arse!!!!!!!!!

Careful Tim, I agree that the other blue team has a great white hope, but if Duke is on, then I absolutly wouldn't count them out. This is why we play the game.We will see after we survive Cedar Hills, and those winds.

Mini Thumber, coach Ks advisor ;)

I was looking to see what kind of scores were posted last year for the Dogwood Crosstown Classic. I noticed that in 2007 everyone that played, shows the 23rd Dogwood Crosstown Classic. So am I missing something here or what?

LOL... darn it... they're onto you guys! ;)

if you look @ the prior year to that you'll notice it was the 21st crosstown. I'd guess they are counting the Pro and Am so the Pro Crosstown this year will be the 26th (even though they call it the 25th like the Am)... Am next year will be the 27th and so on.

or they're just counting by 2s to make it sound like its been around longer than it has

good guess, but not even close :D

care to share? is it like message board distance? inflating the #s

#1 Am Crosstown was 1984
Plus 24= 2008

CR

#1 Am Crosstown was 1984

CR



but you have
21 = 2006
23 = 2007
25 = 2008
and 27 = 2009

see why he asked?

regardless... is there a tourney stamp/logo for this mile mark? if there is and its not in the playas pack i'd like to pick one.

Start the countdown timer & warm up the Hemi Rock... just about 24hrs away!

OH yes Stack, Hemi warm, countdown now T-19hrs, work boring, but tomorrow we get to play.

Mini Thumber, bringing the Heminator, Cool Vanilla Hemi time T-19hrs. 2 minutes, makes me all fuzzy :o

So stoked to come play it's hard to concentrate this morning. Sad I can't get down there early, but can't wait to face the weather and play a few new courses. See you all in the AM bright and early.

Nothing but downpours going on here today...no fun, so your not missing anything. Tomorrow, rain stops early, and the fun begins.

Yeah went out to Zeb yesterday and today got two garbage bags filled with trash course is clean as a whistle, besides all of the little twigs and branches that are coming down from this storm have not seen any lightning yet winds are about 8-10 mph Heavy rain Hole 4 theres a lake infront of the hole prolly gonna stay there all weekend and the new drainage system for the tee pads are working great so far. Got another big puddle on hole 16 by the batting cages,Saw a bunch of snakes on eights teepad by the bench looked like a yellow belly corn snake just getting some rain so watch out for the snakes this weekend they are out there! Right now just a drizzle. But it's shaping up to be one wet tourney it looks like.

(Fri - 9am)
It's cats and dogs at Cedar. The water has risen on hole 7. Hole 13 tee is under water. I birdied hole 15 by dropping my disc in front of the pad and let it float to the basket! Good thing drainage is beTTer at Zeb.

sounds like things will be FUN!!! cant wait! heading out in a few

How cool would it be to be able to do that in a tourney?! I think theres a rule somewhere (there always is) that wouldnt let that work though.

TThanks

Ditto Led_Zeb

Yahnni I will see you and the other analogous baggers in the AM.

Yo Rock,

Do you cater "away games"? I'd love to try that legendary
chilli. Or do I need to play one of your Sanford events? :cool:

By special request only. Hate to leave the course when on site. Tomorrow, world renouned ham salad.Bringing floaties, snorkel, and a firebird or 2.

Mini Thumber, Cool Vanilla Hemi time T-8hrs :D

twas the night before crosstown... and all through Yoo's house... every Am was still stirring... we were all getting housed!

Yoo's trophy discs where hung by the weight bench with care... in hopes that more would join them after his back did repair.

All the other Ams were nestled all snug in their beds,
while visions of cedar hill roll aways ran thru their heads.

Big Jerm sleeping with his Wasp and still talking crap... had just settled down for a pre Zebulon nap

when what to my wondering eyes should appear? Kirk Yoo banging on pots and pans yelling get the hell outta here!

You could hear him exclaim as he drove out of site... get yet butts to Zebulon you dirty Ams and win you just might!

Priceless Stack, I almost started for Zebulon, then reality hit on the Cedar.
Wakeup boy's and girls, It's Cool Hemi time, next call

22222222222222 MMMIIIINNNNUTTTTEEES :cool:

Nice Stack



Roc that is a long time from now....Like 22 trillion, 2 hundred 22 billion, 2 hundred 22 million, 2hundred 22 thousand, 2 hundred twenty two...minutes ...wow that was tough

Ok so i decided to walk out on my back porch this morning to check the temp out, and thankfully i did. Sitting next to my basket was a gift from the wind, 2 nice $20 bills had blown onto my porch. I hope it isnt the only gift the wind gives me today. See yall in a bit

Wow...I lost two twenty dollar bills yesterday...
Thanks for finding them White Pants!!!
I will get them later

shoot lights out YA' AM BAGGERS

Sorry guys, I had to take care of some family matters. Have
fun in that wind. :D

Major props to Tim Haynes who carded a 2 on hole 9 at Zebulon during the morning round. I was glad I was spotting that hole and got to see it. It was a pure fairway ace. SHOT!

haynes repping nova!! sweet!

HoTT

Scotty, thanks a bunch for spotting! It made a big difference in the flow of the round.

amen to that. i'll probably be spotting next weekend. you still coming up scotty?

2 VA boys in the top 10- keep it up!!
cedar should suit haynes as he is a sidearmer.

http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournamen...ings=1#Advanced (http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournament_results.php?TournID=7367&year=2008&incl udeRatings=1#Advanced)

Only 3 under par! Must've been tough conditions at Zeb. It gusted 30-40 all day here at the Castle.

No worries about the spotting, I actually enjoy it. I wish I was coming up next weekend John, but alas I have no team. :( I will be up on Easter weekend to see the family if you want to get together or if anything is going on that Saturday.

Hands down the most fun I have ever had in the wind. ( i had the wind master on my bag!) Thanks to Radl and Schweb for a good first day. Way to be <font color="red"> RReal </font> Schweb.

Kozak

man that wind killed everything!!! I think I had a hyzer come back and land behind me on a hole or two. IF ANYONE SEES A CHAMPION TEEBIRD TYE DYE 175 I BELIEVE RED AND GREEN HAS JEREMY KOLINGS NAME ON IT PLEASE RETURN OH AND IT ALSO HAS A NICE ACE HOLE 6 ZEBULON WITH SIGNATURES ON THE BACK a person i played with during the second round said that he saw it sitting by the 6th teepad like someone had left it there for me to get but someone else picked it up, it was my favorite and most predictable disc, thanks

I wonder if it tasted as good the second time :D

Jeremy Koling takes a one shot lead at Cedar Hills over Jeff Yahn.

He then wins by 11 with a 2 shot penalty for a misadded scorecard.

quite a performance from him.

Nick Johnson wins int.

Stephanie wins adv. women.

thanks Halton for jumping the water this morning.

very very much appreciated!!

scores be up.

Koling averages over 1000. Sick.

thanks to all who made this tournament happen

I popped my cherry!

according to the ratings, cedar hills is only .8 of a stroke easier than Zebulon.

haha, silly ratings.

Halton, this must be Mcree's disc :) 171 Purple #1Driver Lightning- 'MAD'

MADDog loves purple!

I popped my cherry!




Nice come back!

Here's one for you MTL. A 56 in the first round on Saturday shot at Cedar Hills by an intermediate player was rated at 937. The same 56 shot at Cedar Hills on Sunday morning by an advanced player is rated at 956. I know things played differently each day but as bad as the conditions were at Zebulon on Saturday I would expect them to have been worse (more difficult) on Saturday.

I definitely had fun this weekend and it was nice to get a chance to play with some different people. Sunday afternoon at Zebulon was one of the most consistent rounds of golf I've played. It seems like most other rounds there was that blow up hole (or holes) where I would look back and think I could have shot better (that double circle 7 on 16 in the first round for example.... my 8 missed putts in the second round.... or the 7 bogies in the third are others). And it sure was nice to get a shot at Zebulon again WITHOUT THE WIND.

RD

3 from nova in the top 11- good job haynes, rob, and chase! impressive numbers from koling!

Pictures up at: www.raleighdiscgolf.com (http://www.raleighdiscgolf.com)

BIG UPS TO INNOVA, during the awards ceremony I was showing a friend of mine my new innova back saver where it had a seam busted and a guy from INNOVA saw it and replaced it on the spot!!! thanks again innova dude : ) -INNOVA- ROC(k)S!!!

I popped my cherry!



And I watched him do it :D

What a great tourney!! Thanks to Richard, Craig, Mike, Rob, everyone else at RADL, Scotty for spottin and anyone else I missed! Great ace on #13 Zach! It was incredible to watch! Was nice to get my first cash in advanced even with those crazy conditions on Saturday! Nice practice for Bowling green! :D

Congratulations to Jeremy &amp; Nick on the wins in Advanced and Intermediate!

Also wanted to thank everyone that volunteered in some capacity or another... first and foremost Kirk Yoo for being the most amazing host i've ever met. Class act! Scotty for spotting both days... MTL for making/carrying the leaderboard... and of course the TDs and everyone else that helped run the event... Friday check-in was a nice option and everything else seems to run rather smoothly.

Thanks to everyone involved with RADL for their efforts in another successful Am Crosstown &amp; to all the sponsors that helped with extra money and prizes. When I picked up my players pack on Friday, I thought the payout for the tournament would be small because the value of the players pack was $45 out of the $60 entry fee. That was definitely NOT the case though as the payouts on Sunday were huge. Having the RADL store available to allow players to pick their players pack and winnings is also something that everybody likes since they can pick stuff they like rather than getting discs you may or may not like.

Again thanks for a well ran tournament &amp; a geat prizes. For next year... any chance you can do something about the wind ? :D

Robbie

TThanks Halton. Very cool. I really like that roc.

Halton, Did you find an orange Champion RoadRunner in the water on hole #7, would have been on the right side of the fairway just in the water. The the stamp is almost gone. on the back I think my name stamp would have been light as well? wyatt coggin jr 27744 with home phone #.

If you have or find it donate to a beginner for me. It's a sweet disc. getting a bit flippy for me.

It was a blast to help out with this event. Thanks to RADL for letting me be a part of it. Congrats to all of the winners, an A Tier supertour win is something you should always cherish. After it was all over I realized that there were three former A Tier winners helping out at the Am Xtown. Max Crotts won Intermediate at the Charlotte Open (2005), Robert Leonard won advanced at Sneaky Pete (2004) and I had won advanced at some event up north.
I hope to see everyone at Azalea if not sooner.

Thank you Scotty. It's one thing for someone like Mike or myself who live in the area to help, but driving up from Gville and helping was really cool. Thanks on behalf of RADL for your help.

Thanks Richard and Craig for running the event. Thanks Norris for the place to crash. Thanks Zack for letting me throw your Aviar in the pond.

: ) :

Thanks to all who participated in the raffle. I hope Chris, Jeff and Alex can use some of the knowledge I offered them in the future. I enjoyed watching all of the up and coming players while I was caddying this weekend.

The Raffle raised $95.00 for the Pro Crosstown purse.

good werk

Darn,
No white 169 SL?
Thanks for looking though

Yo Scotty-did Max get you my address to mail back my 2
shirts that I left on hole 9 with you? THANKS

What happen with the CTP's on hole 2? I won my group &amp; I guess I missed my prize-what was it?

BIG PROPS to Mike,Craig,Richard &amp; ALL the others for a successful collaboration in the big A-tier 25th!!!!

Yes, Max got the address to me and I will mail that out this week. I actually just washed it so it would not be ripe when it got to you in the mail.

I wanted to thank Kirk for allowing us to crash at his place. I had a blast this weekend even though I did not play well. I look forward to coming back up to Raleigh to play in other events in the future. My next stop will be up in Hendersonville/Gallatin, TN this weekend for their Crosstown Open. I hope to play better but we shall see. Thanks for putting on a fun tournament and I hope to play in it again next year.

Check iTT at ZD (http://www.zonedriven.com/schweb/?p=48)

Sweet article Schwebby-You rock!!

Thanks Scotty-You too rock!!

Was the CTP a DX Destroyer?
No biggie-

Yea, Thanks Kirk for letting all of us stay at your crib,
Your place is awesome

Thanks for a great RADL event and for the awesome payout! I really like the dogwood trophy too, nice work Craig. What a windy Saturday at Zebulon, I saw some really crazy things. Great shooting Jeremy and congratulations on the big win. Good luck at the Pro Crosstown.

Just curious...for those that made the cut in this event, will that final round be rated? Looking at the box scores, its the only round that does not show a rating. Just wondering?

yes it will be. Semi final rounds / finals rounds do not receive preliminary round ratings.
