Our January event will either combine the Missouri City course with a classic Neal Dambra "course of pain" designed temporary course at the Quail Valley Country Club !!! OR 18 holes (temp hoping to turn permanent) on the Quail Valley Country Club property

Here is our preliminary 08 schedule:

First chance to see the TXDGC course!!! It's gonna be great. :D

One of them. Are you using more than one course for your event? Is it absolute that the same layout will be used for both events?

is the Missouri City course still a 9hole?

David - The Mash on January 19th will be at the Quail Valley Golf Club facility. It will be one of the courses be planned for TSDGC in April 2008. I think the course you might be referring to is the Community Park course in Missouri City which is a 9-hole one. The Quail Valley setup has never been used before and the first chance we'll get to look at it is on January 19th. The photos I've seen make it look awesome!

Susan - No guarantees that the exact same configuration will be used for States...it should be pretty close though according to Neal. But even when we run on the Tom Bass courses, almost every year there is a tweak or two to the courses that we use. I would say that a good approach towards it would be to keep our options on the layout open until we get a chance to see what it looks like on January 19th.

I'm going to try to hitch up with Neal on Saturday to walk the courses and take a look at them.

sweet, i look forward to it.
are there going to be online signups or dayofs for these one days? i plan on driving down from ftw as much as possible for these, thanks

David - TitleDisc is listing the tournament on January 19th, but the link to actually take you to a sign-up form is missing. I'm guessing that it just isn't ready yet.

Mo City Mash Jan 19 is on the new Texas States Course!!
Great, great piece o property and a Neal Dambra designed "course of pain"!!

You will love this venue!!

Looking at the 08 schedule:

March 15 Bass same weekend as HOTT The RED Rock Show (Red Rock)
May 24 McDade same weekend as S TX Shootout (Beeville)
Aug 9 Kingwood same weekend as Shule School (Ingleside)
Sept 6 Spring Valley same weekend as HOTT Mystery (who knows)
Oct 4 1st Colony same weekend as HOTT Octoberfest ( Round Rock)
November 8 TC Jester same weekend as HOTT Lewisville Open

Is this a problem for anyone?


reply back or pm back asap! We can look at changing some dates but we want to do it early so that people can make plans (I know, how un-disc-golfer-like)

This should only affect a few of you tournament-obsessed types that want to play both series events or for some unknown reason want to escape the gentle balmy warmth of Houston for the harsh arid clime of Centex ;)

but we have to know cuz we plan on submitting our sanctioning paperwork sooooooon (for disc golfers )

So, replay back or pm me asap!!!

Mo City Mash Jan 19 is on the new Texas States Course!! Mo City Mash Jan 19 is on the new Texas States Course!! :D:D:D

Yeah I would like to play all of them. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Oktoberfest is still at Red Rock (Moody's) not Round Rock.

Round ROCK would not run an event against ANY event, ANYWHERE in Texas...except that lil girl event we run

We know.

Speaking of "that lil girl event"..............any flyer details available yet? ;)

my .02

March 15 Bass same weekend as HOTT The RED Rock Show (Red Rock - Birdshot should change his date
May 24 McDade same weekend as S TX Shootout (Beeville) - flip a quarter
Aug 9 Kingwood same weekend as Shule School (Ingleside) - Birdshot should change his schedule
Sept 6 Spring Valley same weekend as HOTT Mystery (who knows) - Mitch should change the schedule
Oct 4 1st Colony same weekend as HOTT Octoberfest ( Round Rock)- 1st Colony- why not keep 1st Colony the same weekend that we just played???
November 8 TC Jester same weekend as HOTT Lewisville Open - should be HOTT Final at Circle R and having a C-tier at TC Jester that same weekend wouldnt do anything except cause a low turnout in Houston,Circle R is a blue level course thats a no-brainer.

I'm sure that you guys will work this out,I am real excited about both series!,cool people and courses at both Houston and Austin.

I vote = Change'm

if all those events are sanctioned, the state coordinator will take care of any conflicts. For unsanctioned events, it's still a good idea to go through the coordinator... keeps everyone playing nice :)

David - TitleDisc is listing the tournament on January 19th, but the link to actually take you to a sign-up form is missing. I'm guessing that it just isn't ready yet.


I usually list tournaments on the main page once I know that we're going to be hosting registration for them, that way players at least know what's coming. Once the page has been built and approved by the TD, the link becomes active. Is there something you think I could do different to make this more obvious to the players? Maybe a "registration coming soon" line or something?

As always, feedback is much appreciated! :)

I'm sure that you guys will work this out,I am real excited about both series!,cool people and courses at both Houston and Austin.



Well put!

I always look forward to playing with you guys from CenTex.
Whether it's in your backyard or ours.

1st choices...
Red Rock - March 15th
States - April 5th
Coto - May 17th
McDade - May 24th
Kingwood - Aug 9th
Spring Valley - Sept 6th
Oktoberfest - Oct 4th

COTO will be on May 17th?

as far as I've read...

check the HOTT thread. click here (http://www.pdga.com/msgboard/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=TournamentInfo&Number=771 167&page=1&fpart=1)

you playin Quail Valley next month Christian?

yeah, I'll be there.

let me know if you need a place to stay.
I hope to get some practice on that course next Friday.
I'll take some pictures and post'em if I can.

I signed up via titledisc for the Quail Valley tournament a few weeks ago and the charge hasn't gone through. Can someone let me know if I need to sign up again?

hello, can anyone tell me for the quail valley classic if intermediate will be playing the same tee positions as adv and open? now that int rating is up to 935 i dont think we need to play shorts, imho,thanks

whatever if you dont want to play shorts then play ADV or Open.thats the way its always been.

whatever if you dont want to play shorts then play ADV or Open.thats the way its always been.



thats what im going to do, just as soon as i figure out if intermediates are playing shorts

The plan as of today is that the Novice and Rec play from the shorts at the QVCCC. I believe that Chuck is willing to discuss with the ladies and reeeeeeeeeally ancient old guys which tees they prefer.

At the TXSDGC, I do not believe that Novice will be offered.

thanks

So if there isn't novice will INT and Rec play the shorts? You said above that REC and Novice would play the shorts but also said there probably wouldn't be novice which is why I ask.

I say ADV and Pro play the longs and if you are going to play Int and don't like it play up. The ADV division will be small this year so that would be good.

This lady wants to play the only tees...........the long ones. But my name still isn't listed, nor is Emily's. I mailed my entry two weeks ago.

Jan 19

This event will be held at the Quail Valley Country Club ball golf course. We will have 18 disc golf holes set up for the tournament using the space of approximately 4 ball golf holes. This area is no longer being used by ball golfers. Novice and Recreational Men, all Am Women will play from the short teeboxes. Advanced Grandmaster Men and older and Pro Women will have the choice to play from short or Long teeboxes.

This is a country club golf course, so players will be required to play by the same rules as the ball golfers. ALL players must wear collared, sleeved shirts (no tank tops or sleeveless). Blue jeans (denim) pants or shorts, or unhemmed (cut-off) shorts are not allowed. Also, pull carts are not allowed. You must walk with a bag. Please note the course is not especially difficult to walk and plays at about 6,500 Ft. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
There will be optional breakfast and lunch available on-site in the club house. Menu, pricing, and other details will be emailed to those who register. We encourage you to support the Country Club by having your meal(s) there.

This also will be the site of the 2008 Texas State Disc Golf Championships! Get some practice in at the Birdshot Quail Valley Classic 1!
Directions:
Traveling South on U.S. Highway 59:
Exit Bellfort/Murphy Road. (1st exit after Beltway 8). At the second stop light turn left under U.S. 59. Drive South on Murphy Rd (1092) approximately 6 miles to Cartwright Road, turn left. At the second stop light La Quinta Drive turn right. The Clubhouse is 2 blocks down on the right side. To go to the Golf Pro Shop turn right at stop sign onto El Dorado Boulevard.

What are short tees?

Maybe I have to play up, advanced isn't am, but they think we're girls so we wouldn 't want to play them.

I'm not the FW2 group and PROTEST THIS SHORT BOX STUFF.

Let the FW2/FW3 play short, NOT FW1.

FW1 will be heard! That's the spirit! :cool:

As previously posted, Chuck is willing to discuss tees with the ladies and reeeeeeeeeally old ancient men. :D

Here is hole Number 1 (pro tee)
http://www.hfds.org/discus/messages/30/10368.jpg

A shot from the rough. It was about 77 degrees, brrrr! Jim's really suffering....

http://www.hfds.org/discus/messages/30/10374.jpg

The Gods have spoken and the advanced ladies will play the regular tees.

Thank goodness you guys came to your senses. :D

Thanks Chuck.

Disc golfers,

If you are planning on entering the Birdshot Quail Valley Open, Jan 19 at Quail Valley Country Club (QVCC) http://www.houstonbirdshot.com/. Please read below. This is also the site for the 2008 Texas States Disc Golf Championships in April (www.texasstates.org)

QVCC will prepare lunch for us between rounds. http://www.nealdambra.com/QVC1Menu.png Basically it�s $10-12 with tax and gratuity. This may be a couple bucks more than you are used to spending for lunch at a disc golf tourney, but you won�t have to leave the facility and it is in a very comfortable indoor area called the El Dorado Grill. More importantly, support of QVCC amenities is encouraged and appreciated as they are supporting our sport.

If you plan on eating there please email your menu choices to [email protected] as soon as possible so QVCC can plan the lunch service.

QVCC has a Dress Code for ALL golfers: Basically no cut-offs, no blue jeans, no baggy sweat pants, no t-shirts. Please wear a collared or tailored collar shirt and some decent shorts, pants, or windbreaker/track suit style pants. Hope it�s not too much hassle...we appreciate your cooperation.

No pull carts (QVCC Rule)...no Golf Cart Rentals (PDGA Ruling)...sorry...we tried...you must walk and carry your bag or have a caddy (dress code applies to caddy also).

Latest course map attached.

Hope to see you next Saturday...

Neal putting on Gator Alley with Wally watching (that's not a log floating out there). Wally, the MA3 7-ft gator, collects all the discs that hit the water for himself. I heard he is thinking about opening an EBay account....

if we come out early to practice on friday do we have to pay to play? and how much for a cart rental? muchas gracias

Quail Valley Country Club (http://www.txsdgc.com/News_View.aspx?Articleid=8)

$5 to play all day
$15 loner w/ cart
$20 2 persons w/cart

so if you have no friends, think about finding one :D

i have friends, but they wont be seen with me :D

Isn't it funny how that happens? :D :D :D

We have over 65 pre-registered players. :D:D :D :D:D :D

Do not miss out! :mad: get online and ensure your spot!! Titledisc.com

THIS TOURNEY WILL FILL! Titledisc.com!!!!

...and hurry!

What is FULL??????

With only 7 slots left, I'd say it's going to fill.

I'm hoping that you will "cap" this event so there aren't any five-somes out there.

I've got a feeling that there are going to be some disappointed folks around when they realize there won't be any room left to take any "morning-of" sign-ups! :D

Good to see a tournament fill with pre-registrations!!!

Follow this link to find course directions and other great information:

http://www.txsdgc.com/News_View.aspx?Articleid=8

67 pre-regs - tick, tick, tick......

The word from Chuck Conaway is that we will be taking up to 90 entries. They are pouring in quite fast now though... we're at 69 as of this post... I bet we will hit 90 by about noon tomorrow.

70 tick, tick, tick.....

So, did any other ladies sign up? And will all players be added to the list soon?

Hmmm...FIVE-somes on a 6,000' course with TONS of water hazards, no pull carts, no golf carts, and we don't know about tri-pod/portable chairs yet...

Seems like it's going to be a very challenging experience for all.

Any other surprises coming?

dernit Ching, talking about all that fun... i *really* wish I could attend this one... :(

The ground will be wet.

I have a better one; "the lowest score will be shot by a masters age player".

what no tripod stools? :confused:

73. giddyup

OK well I talked to Chuck again and he asked me to close registration in titleDISC. With the 76 I've taken plus the ones he's had hand-delivered....

This event is now officially FULL :)

Please read this thread carefully. The only official tournament information comes from me or Tony Bender.

Here is the latest: You are going to love this course! :D
We have closed registration on Titledisc because we have 85 :cool:official entries and don't know what else is in the mail. I will continue to update everyone as things progress.Yep, We are stuck with five on card but very few inexperienced players and the course is designed to really allow people to move during the rounds.



NO ONE HAS BANNED TRIPOD CHAIRS during the tournament. One person asks a question and the next thing you know people are jumping to all kinds of conclusions!! I am bringing mine. Except that we ask that they not be seen in and around the clubhouse. We ask everyone to make a special effort to positively impress the membership of this private, exclusive club that disc golf is a good thing to support on their property. :D All the members will be watching and all the neighbors as we literally play in their back yards. We are there only by their invitation.

Just like the members, no one will be allowed to carry their bags into the clubhouse. (Or set up a barbeque in the parking lot! ) We would love to see everyone enjoying their restaurant for lunch with a fully stocked bar after the tourney. Breakfast will be available.

Lunch! an added bonus. Neal has arranged for the resturant to have lunches ready for those that pre-order!!Lunch menu (http://www.nealdambra.com/QVC1Menu.png) Contact Neal at [email protected] to reserve lunch so there is no waiting when your first round is over.


This is a golf course, it is built to drain. It is not a flood water retention zone like Bass Park. It may be damp but there will be VERY LITTLE, if any, standing water.

This is going to be fun! :D :D

Thanks, JD at Titledisc.com for all your help. You made Chuck's job much easier! We can start making score cards tonight!

From the conversation I had with the event coordinator, the lunch does not have to be pre-ordered as their kitchen is open for regular business, but in doing so, you won't have to wait.

Thanks again and everyone, let's just have fun and stay warm. I'm bringing a box of hand warmers for sale.

Does anyone know if spectators can rent a golf cart to follow all of the action (FUN) :p ? As a few of us will be bringing the wifes. If so how much would the rental be for the day. Thank you, see you on saturday, can't wait. :)

This is an official Birdshot tournament communication:

Yahoo! As of 9:00 am we have 88 officially registered players! :D:D:D:D:D :D

Carts: :cool:
YES, there will be carts available for rental. QVCC will have their other course, an executive 18-hole course, open Saturday and most of their carts will be reserved for members but they will reserve about 20 carts maximum for rental for tournament use, caddies and spectators. Rental will be about $20 for the day.

The PDGA does not allow players to use carts for sanctioned events. <font color="red"> Please read the PDGA rules so that you do not suffer the consequences of a rules violation. </font> :o

Tournament Schedule:
Time is precious this time of year so we propose to move things along as fast as we can.
Our planned tournament schedule (before the tournament filled with pre-registrations) was:

7:00 � 8:00 am Registration and Check-In (If you do not check-in by deadline, you may Lose your entry fee at the discretion of TD)

8:30 am Players' Meeting

9:00 am 1st Round Tee Off

Now that day-of registration is only a matter of <u>checking in</u>, IF conditions allow us to advance the schedule during the day, we will make every attempt to do so. This means that IF everyone shows up early to check in, there is no reason to delay the players' meeting. Also, the course staff or volunteers will shuttle players before the rounds begin to the more distant holes. :cool::cool:How cool is that! That is the ONLY time a tournament player can ride in a cart!!

So IF everyone cooperates, we can have an 8:05 Players' Meeting, reasonable time to warm up, move up the starting time, lunch time, beginning of the second round, and everyone getting back home.

We realize we have people coming from fair distances. We will not advance the check-in schedule but once everyone is checked in we would LIKE TO advance everything else if possible. This means that 8:00 am is a firm deadline!! At 8:01 we will register anyone lucky enough to make it from the wait- list.

We will start taking wait-list names at 7:00 am

Any questions?

Thanks, everyone for making this tournament such a big event!

This is an official Birdshot tournament communication:

Yahoo! As of 9:00 am we have 88 officially registered players!


NEW PROPOSED Tournament Schedule:
Time is precious this time of year so we propose to move things along as fast as we can.

7:00 � 8:00 am Registration and Check-In (If you do not check-in by deadline, you may Lose your entry fee at the discretion of TD)

8:05 am Players' Meeting
8:30 am 1st Round Tee Off

Let's get this show on the road!

What about folks who have signed up, coming from out of town and not able to read this board?

Seems like you should keep the schedule published. It is cold in the morning, and this isn't a LONG course, so time isn't that precious, is it?

The non-board readers are not going to like this change in your published schedule.

I'm planning on attending a players meeting at 8:30 per the first "Official" communications above. The second one only states "Proposed" schedule change...like it hasn't really been formalized yet...besides Michael, this isn't something you should just change on the fly after it's been officially published as starting at 8:30.

Thanks for your prompt feedback. This is up to the players, not Birdshot. :cool::)

We offer to start the tournament earlier, not demand. Delaying the start time only makes the organizers job easier. The 30 minutes between the end of registration and the players meeting was intended for the tournament organizers to get the score cards marked. That is no longer necessary. :D

The only "official" published Birdshot schedule states that all times are subject to change. What would be patently wrong would be to change the registration/check-in times when people have committed to driving long distances to attend. That will not happen.

You will notice that there were about 6 qualifiers in the proposal to move up the tournament start time. That is because we have promised, based on previous complaints from players, that we would attempt to start the tournaments as early as possible after registration, because they hated needless delays in starting the tournament, especially when it's cold <u>and</u> the people that have long drives home complained that they have to be on the road all night.

It will be cold, between sunrise and 10:30 the temperature in Houston today has risen exactly 1 degree.

So everyone that can respond, please do. Like Burger King, This is your chance to have it your way.

We wish you an orderly check in process Michael.
May this event run smoothly and on time.
May players not ask silly questions and distract staff accordingly.


That's a wish list any TD can love. ;)

So everyone that can respond, please do. Like Burger King, This is your chance to have it your way.



So is it too late to request four-somes only? :D

Five-somes stink. For your third tournament ever, I think you will find out the hard way what all of the implications are for that decision.

When are the baskets going to be set in place? Most players like to play at least a few holes before getting started in a tournament...

Just sent to me via carrier pigeon:


News Flash!!

Dateline Houston:

A semi-reliable source confirmed today that PDGA # 1274, Don Wilchek is the 88th official registrant of the 2008 Quail Valley Classic.

Tournament organizers were astonished be informed that there are now 7 ProGrandmasters registered!

"Do we need EMS standing by?" a startled tournament organizer was heard to exclaim.....

"Just when I thought the cash was mine!" shouted a scowling pro-grandfather

More breaking news is sure to follow as this reporter seeks to discover the identity of the 87th officially registered player....



hmmmm, Ibuprofen, it's not just for breakfast anymore..... ;)

Richard Lewis just cancelled, so you're back to six really old pro players.

does anyone have a suggestion for a good bar to watch the jones v trinidad fight at on saturday night? and also, on our way out sunday we wanted to hit another houston course,which would be the best course to play? thanks in advance

We are too popular :confused: :( :confused:

Well, we wanted to prove to the country club that DG was big... :D

This tournament is a unique opportunity to promote DG to a community that may have the power to grant the world a new world class showcase 54 (or more?)hole permanent course.

As for the players, I think everyone is excited about getting on the TXSDGC course AND the return of sanctioned tourneys to Houston.

After this tournament, we plan to cap the tourneys at 72 per 18 holes. Of course, if QVCC becomes permanent with 54 holes thats a lota golf!....... :D :D:D

and also, on our way out sunday we wanted to hit another houston course,which would be the best course to play? thanks in advance




Yeah...I suggest that you consider playing in the Spring Valley Commando Mini on Sunday morning at 10:00 am. It's the best course in Houston!!! Last weekend we had 22 players with 14 in Open! The Ace Pot is small right now as it was just hit the week before last. Cost is only $10 and at least $1 from every entry goes to Texas States. All cash payout for everyone.

BW3 Hwy 6 1/4 mile north of 59 has almost everything

Oye, just in over the telegraph:


News Flash!!

Dateline Houston:

A semi-reliable source confirmed today that the other two courses at QVCC will be available for casual play on Saturday.

"The implications are astounding!" gasped a tournament organizer as he struggle but failed to maintain composure

"This goes against the laws of physics, it very well could be the end of the civilization as we know it!", blurted a high placed NASA engineer

"(censored),mayn, ahl jus skip that danggold torneement and tho'at them 36 flags" asserted a drunk bubba walking past



Aye, carumba. so there you have it. If you cain't...ah, cannot get in from the wait list you COULD still play the 36 available holes not involved in the tournament and PRETEND you are a bonafide PDGA competitor. Chuck says there would be no way to prevent those that have paid to play the other courses from playing the tournament course during the lunch break.

I'm bringing a box of hand warmers for sale.


I'd like to order a couple please SueMac...I'll look for you at the players meeting.
Thanks

This is an official Birdshot informational bulletin:

The club manager at QVCC has informed us that their membership has scheduled an event for Saturday morning, January 19, that will make it very unlikely that any carts will be available for caddies or spectators. :(

Apparently their event has grown bigger than previously planned and the membership has first call on the carts.

Players cannot use golf carts at PDGA sanctioned events but we hoped to have some available for spectators or caddies. Do not count on any carts being available for anyone except course and tournament staff. :(

Tournament Schedule:
Thanks to all for all your opinions, input and suggestions. The desires were many, varied, and conflicting SO we default back to our original plans:

If you show up today to practice, you can check in at the Club House GOLF PRO SHOP

JAN 19 7:00 � 8:00 am Registration and Check-In
at the El Dorado Grill in the club house
(If you do not check-in by deadline, you will Lose your spot)

8:30 am Players' Meeting

9:00 am 1st Round Tee Off

Directions:
Traveling South on U.S. Highway 59:
Exit Bellfort/Murphy Road. (1st exit after Beltway 8). At the second stop light turn left under U.S. 59. Drive South on Murphy Rd (1092) approximately 6 miles to Cartwright Road, turn left. At the second stop light La Quinta Drive turn right. The Clubhouse is 2 blocks down on the right side. To go to the Golf Pro Shop turn right at stop sign onto El Dorado Boulevard.


Wait List:
We are FULL. We do not HAVE any open spots left. We recieved mailed or hand delivered registrations yesterday that not only completely took all the spots but started a wait list.

Just in - We have received calls from 3 people today saying it is doubtful that they will show tomorrow unless they feel better.

Any cancellations or no-shows will be filled by lottery at 8:01.

To have a chance to get any remainings spots you have to be at the registration table between 7:00 - 7:59 am and put your name on the wait list. At 8:01 we will take all the names of the people from the wait, put them in a hat and pull out as many names as we have spots for. At 8:02 we will register the added players.

Awesome course and awesome tournament! I really liked the way the golf bunkers guarded some of the baskets, like on #4, 8 and 10. The island on 5 was awesome too.

Now hopefully I can make it out to states....... how is the difficulty of the other two courses going to be compared to King Quail?

Oh... what a bad time to get sick... I really was looking forward to playing that course in a competitive setting... Oh well... TexAg, in terms of difficulty, the same types of shots are required on the other courses, however, there are some distinctions... On the Links course, water comes into play on 75% of the holes... and overall, will be more difficult to score well on (bad shots will be punished much more severely than on King Quail). There are very few trees on the links course, and with all of the water, would be brutal with high winds. The Valley course is more similar to King Quail, and has some fun basket placements on the edge of 15 foot elevated greens.
With that said... anybody know results from yesterday?

SCORES!!!!!!!

They are probably still finishing awards ceremony this morning! :D (It was a long one!)

Scores?!?!?!?!

?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Dixon Jowers won open with -2 total thats all I know

Great turnout and fantastic course!

That must have been a good Angus Burger I got for lunch... my second round beat my first by 95 ratings points!

Are the Recreational and Intermediate ratings correct considering they threw from the short tee�s?

that country club was cool, def something different, but i feel ashamed and sick to my stomach that i bought two beers at $4 a piece, other than that i had a great time and played with some cool cats, hopefully i can make it down for another birdshot.

$4 ?????
$5 is the toppless rate.....

Are the Recreational and Intermediate ratings correct considering they threw from the short tee�s?



I was wondering that too...I'm sure they will work themselves out before too long!

So much for my 996 rated round ;)

Michael, it would seem that it would be beneficial to state your cancellation policy here on the board for all to see, could you do that?

The TD must be contacted by phone or email to be officially withdrawn. These have a date and time stamp.

1. Your entry fee will be refunded in full if you cancel 48 hours before tournament begins (Thursday 9:00 am)
2. Your entry fee will be 50% refunded if you cancel 24 hours before tournament begins (Friday 9:00 am)
3. Your entry fee will not be refunded at all if you cancel less than 24 hours before tournament begins (after Friday 9:00 am)



Suemac, Found this at the website. I think it's what you're looking for.

Thanks, now for some feedback.

For a C-tier event, does this seem reasonable?

Comments?

And what do they do with the entry fees they retain? ARe they added to payout? or pocketed?

They should probably state where the money will go, but the policy seems pretty reasonable to me, especially since it is stated upfront. I suspect if demand was less, then the policy would be rethought.

The last time I recall playing those holes was after the hurricane a few years back, I hope they've mowed since then.
Long holes through the meadow can be such a fun safari.

I hope some ladies will come out for these holes in particular. They're right up our alley.

Good suggestion from "the legend" We will post it on the HoustonBirdshot.com website. The "no show" $$ will go with heavy bias towards numbers 1 and 2:

1. The desperately needed "Houston Course improvements fund"
2. Jennifer Beazley fund
2. TX State DGC
3. Sanctioning fees for 08 tourneys
4. Tournament expenses

Also suggested but turned down:

1. The "But-I-want-to-go-to-Harvard-fund-and-start-the-first-intercollegiate-DG-team-for-1000-rated-PDGA-players-who-have-not-yet-graduated-or-even-applied-to-any-ivy-league-schools" Fund :cool:
2. A birdshot helicopter for transportation for masters age players that always seem to get started on the holes farthest from the players' meeting. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

The grass is not high this time around Sue. And the rest of the course is looking good as well. Hole 8 will be the only wet spot if the rains continue next week. Coach Dave has the rest of the course draining pretty good.

Come out this Sunday and sign up for the tourney. You'll be glad you did. ;)

Thanks for the update Jake. :cool:

Wasn't complaining, just curious.

I love the long holes anyway, I can close my eyes and think I'm at The Rock. ;)

That's right Sue, good practice for April...

Sure wish some other masters would sign up.

Nice list of masters developing... I thought Ynfante was playing Masters. Guess he's not 40 yet. :D

In the words of the great Janis Joplin: "Get it while you can"

The weather is calling the shots for this tourney.

And the call is, "Good day sunshine"!

Note to Birdshot crew; please make it out to Brooks this evening as some last minute knuckleheads are trying to get in the cheap way. w/o titlediscing... A waitlist for a tourney at Brooks... I love it!!!

good to see wilchek's name on that list.

good to see wilchek's name on that list.



Amen to that... He knows a great course that is a must play. ;)

BirdShot: Eric Jubin's PDGA membership was processed today. His new number is: 34690 and yep, he's current. :D

What is the cap for this tournament?

Please tell me that we aren't going to be running five-somes out there!!!

I scoured around on the Birdshot website and couldn't find any details about this event.

I'm presuming that it will be two rounds, right? How many holes? I saw Jake post up about playing the A,B,C holes...so is this two rounds of 21 holes?

I still want to know what the cap is...it would be nice to know in advance whether we are playing on five-somes or not...I hate playing five to a card!

Yes, we are playing 21 hole rounds. And since we start early with buckshot, I'm sure things will go smoothly.

THINK POSITIVE Larry.

Larry - If you don't want to play with Lance, move to Masters... :D

you have to get 84 players before you have to worry about having 4/card.

Is this event full already, and has registration closed? I went to register on titledisc today (I thought it closed tonight) and found that the online registration had been closed. The highest number of players I could find registered online is 70, so I was surprised.

Did I just miss the deadline (It was like 12:30 central time when I tried this) or did something else happen?

These guys are still wet behind the ears, and they are working out their own issues in an effort to have the event run smoothly.

I would PM Chuck or Michael. I will PM you with phone numbers.

Yeah G-Mo was signing me up this afternoon but I guess not anymore,
Did I just miss the deadline (It was like 12:30 central time when I tried this) or did something else happen?

Birdshot: Please move Mark Smith to Open Masters...

There's no division called open masters, you mean PRO masters right? :D

This tournament is FULL! :cool:

The tournament filled with mail-ins and online registrations before the deadline so Titledisc.com had to close before the Thursday night deadline.

We will have no more than 4 persons per card going forward so take that into consideration when timing your tournament registrations.

The course is looking great and we expect great weather!

Jake, confirming move Mr. Smith to P Master .

There's no division called open masters, you mean PRO masters right? :D


Keith...what are you doing here? (I think you really wish you were a Texan!) :o

Uh oh...look out for the moderators - the above post could be construed as a personal attack!

2 rounds of 21 -- ABC holes added for your tournament pleasure

4 per card - no mo fo sho :cool::cool::cool:

Thanks, Jake for all your help in preparing the course and all the coordinating that you did! :cool:

I really LOVE you guys!!! :D

Thanks for the clarification Michael!!! I can't wait to play tomorrow morning!

Keith...what are you doing here? (I think you really wish you were a Texan!) :o



Was anyone even at the course yesterday to take signups?

Given Mike's statement 6 spots above yours, Matt...I'd say no because it filled with mail-ins and Titledisc entries.

He's practicing his pro skills...............waiting till the last minute.

Somehow, I predict that "change is a coming" within our community.

Sign up in advanced or get left at the door.

Jake, confirming move Mr. Smith to P Master .




Duh... Yes, I meant Pro Masters... Thanks Kei :pth...

Why is it a 72 max with two courses?

We don't have the staff to run anything bigger. Now, if you're volunteering.......?

Probably not even playing because I wouldn't know until after 9 AM on Thursday. Basically it is Bass or New Orleans but won't know which until a little before.

There are quite a few people from Houston going. I am going to try to get Robbie to go considering it is his old temporary home course.

There's no division called open masters, you mean PRO masters right? :D


Keith...what are you doing here? (I think you really wish you were a Texan!) :o




Alex, You know I read every thread. :D
I love Texas and my Texas friends, why do you think I sponsor events there?

This was one of the events I was looking at to try and play. :p

If I could fly in and out without losing 2 days from work, I'd play there more often also. :D

I'm one of those old farts who gets to take advantage of the fact that Masters isn't "open". :D

It's bad enough competing with the 990 and higher rated Masters at every event now, who make their living of guys like me that play one 1000 rated round and one 900 rated round in the same event. :eek:

Hope to see you at Worlds in MI.

Keith

brother Leon and I are headed that way around 4:30 that morning. Looks like we are the only A-Town disc junkies willing to take on the H-Town junkies. I never had my name put on a mini before. That's something worth playing for I tell ya.

Its going to be a hot one out there Chuck, will yall have water available on the course?

I hope so, but I'm bringing extra's. Look for the guy in the LSDiscs shirt if you need some.

Y'all are MAD I tell ya - absolutely MAD!

The course is short &amp; plays pretty quickly...you'll only need one bottle per round.

Post here or PM me if you need any local supplies or a crash pad Sat. night.

Don't speed through Giddings!

BTW...if you don't get your name on a mini, I'll give you one of mine - :D

FYI-

After the Quickie, the next tourney in Austin is going to be at Bartholomew Park. (Lets not forget about the HOTT tour "Kyle Open 6/28/08" but not affiliated with the Super D Productions) I have picked July 12th and 13th for this potential "B" tier. Once I talk with Waterloo about this I will make it official. After all, they are the only one's that keep maintnance on the course. Thanks Waterloo

Has anyone come up with a name so I can create a thread? I think I can create a pole on this thread too, bad Ace

Go to the Quickie thread to see some ideas that have poped up...

i dont think there is 18 baskets at bart yet.

and I would call it the 2008 BartholoPEW Open

Alex, thanks for the offer but we will be making this a one day tour.

Short course?, and I hear its a lefty friendly course. Well, I'm feeling good because I got all the bad throws out this week and I'm running purely on "Super D". Yea, you can just call me Super though.

So have you been to Canada lately? Is the island an RV park yet?

I'm adding that one to the list seewhere, awsome!

Yea thats a big problem but what about some xtra holes? And PDGA allows a rating for less than 18 baskets. I think the minimum is 12, have to check though. I would have the final at either Circle C or Pease. Three rounds at Bart is just to much to handle for a bunch of righties. I have to give you guys a chance ya know.

Thanks for the input!

Minimum is 13 holes.
