I bet if you really work at it, you can have 4 different threads for this tournament.

The Memorial Day weekend tournament will have a similar layout, right?

You have discovered my master plan! :o Just one more title sponsor to go and I will have my fourth thread.


The Memorial Day weekend tournament will have a similar layout, right?



Maple Hill Three will be the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend and will probably feature round 1 on a shorter configuration and round 2 on the open layout.

The first Vibram Open fundraiser disc is now available through PRIME Discs:

Quick Quiz:

What do Ken Climo, Steven Rico, David Feldberg, Nathan Doss, Josh Anthon, JohnE McCray, Barry Schultz, and Avery Jenkins have in common?

(Other than the fact that none have them have been in my kitchen and being much better golfers than myself.)

Clue: Cale Leiviska and Markus K�llstr�m are the only two of the top 10 rated disc golfers that have done this.

Feldberg & Jenkins were in my kitchen 15 minutes ago!

Sorry but Moose and I were busy today moving Barry to his new place.

Ahhh to see the garage full of plastic yum yum...

Josh-widye

Answer:

None of them have beat New England Pros in big New England a tournament. And so far none have signed up to do so. How many spots left?

Green Mountain Open is the following weekend just 3-4 (?) hours away. How is this not worth the trip? Are there 2 closer NT events?

minor correction: feldberg, avery and barry have beaten some new england pros at the MSDGC in 05 & 06, but they have not beaten Aaron Ala - the up and coming Maple Hill star who helped to land the greatest sponsorship disc golf has ever seen! Bring it on Vibram boy!

And Aaron has been in my kitchen!

Congrats to John Fowler and Buddy Pacatte for earning spots at our first qualifier - The Pot O Gold in New Orleans!

Next Qualifier - The Dogwood Crosstown Classic.

Qualifier info: http://www.maplehillopen.com/players_qualifiers.html

Just took one of the remaining touring pro card spots, I'm already getting pumped for this one. I've never played east of Indiana.

Yeah my bad, apologies to Feldberg, Avery, and Barry. I should have said PDGA sanctioned tournament. I hated to exclude MSDGC. Okay, it obviously didn't come up when I searched the PDGA records.

My apologies to Aaron for having been in Steve's kitchen as well.

Travis- you bringing your chick????

Travis- you bringing your chick????



There is one non-reserved women's spot currently available. And Travis, we can't wait to see you east of Indiana.

Standing Rocks Open and the Texas Women's Championship are the next qualifiers.

Home page updated: http://www.maplehillopen.com/default.html

The Vibram Open at Maple Hill is now a sponsor of my tournament, The Raleigh Disc Golf Championship!

Steve Dodge and I have been disussing a way to cross promote our two events since we are on the same weekend.

We agreed the best way is to sponsor each other! I'm sending him merch from my tournament and he is sending merch from his.

This is a great thing I think as neither of us wanted to have our event on the same weekend.

Thanks Steve and whichever event you decide to play that weekend, have fun!

Robert, I won't be able to play Raleigh that weekend. Sorry to miss it. :cool:

Wow, as good as in! #4 on the wait list!!! I moved up 6 spots since I last looked!

Things are starting to move as people realize this is the Christmas in July weekend. Who is your secret July Santa?

INNOVAN and I are in!

I CAN'T WAIT

Myself, McCabe and Liz, and Sprague are driving out together. This may be a long shot at this point, but does anyone have room for four out of towners on their floor. Sure would help financially since it is going to run us about $700 in gas to get there and back. Thanks for any responses, especially those that say, "Yeah, I have three open Queen sized beds reserved just for you!".

Thanks again and I look forward to getting there and playing in this thing even if I have to sleep in my car.

Camp, bro! You gotta stay at Pyramids if you want to have the total experience. Just don't pet Pierre, at least not with your throwing hand...

Looks like I managed to get a spot at the PFDO this weekend. I will be sending my money and entry in today. I'm pumped!!

Camp, bro! You gotta stay at Pyramids if you want to have the total experience. Just don't pet Pierre, at least not with your throwing hand...



I pet Pierre every year and I've found him to be a very nice dog. :)

and ya, camping is the only way to go here. you miss out on too much fun otherwise. any chance Poolball is still gonna run? Will JG sleep on or under the Pie table this year?

I'm in. Got a spot at the PFDO. Sending in money tomorrow.

Does the $25 camping rate include anything other than portapotties and camping space and DDC and disc golf and head shaving?

Pie eating contest? I have to go for the title again.
Food? Vegan, you chefing again?

VR will, indeed, be dragging up the cooker &amp; serving NC-style pulled pork, barbecue sauce, &amp; coleslaw on Saturday night.

yeah dog. If you haven't had Vegan's BBQ, you'd never know it was tofu.

I Kid. It's the real deal. He makes a mean pork butt.

I thought camping was only at Maple this year.

yeah dog. If you haven't had Vegan's BBQ, you'd never know it was tofu.

I Kid. It's the real deal. He makes a mean pork butt.


Thank you, sir! I'm thinking of switching it up this year &amp; doing ribs (possibly even meaner than the pulled barbeque), but have yet to decide. I'll surprise you.

BTW - camping at Pyramids is ON!

Sjur,
Jason figured because he's forgotten more than most people will ever know about throwing a party, that it only makes sense to host the campers at Pyramids. Pyramids is, after all, the heart and soul of New England disc golf, eh?

DDC past dark baby...those lights are really working now...

I want to see Schneider tackle another pole hole - "That thing had it coming"...

What's the name of that game with the beer cans on the poles?

Polish Horseshoes!

aka Frisbeer

We will be broadcasting the tee time selection live on July 14th. Stay tuned for more details.

hey, that's my birthday!

Ok...Great!!!! GOTTA CANCEL HOTEL ROOM. You playing masters next year Peckham?

dude, I'm like 26. What calendar are you going by?

Is there head shaving this year? Here is the haircut for you Matty :D

I think Lick can handle that

Post deleted by Jason_Southwick

Glad you all are making it, bring your camp gear--it's MANDO and the only way to get the full Southwick Experience.

This is where I should mentioned Blaser's special talent, but should let it unfold spontaneously during the event. Maybe the loser of pie finals gets the treatment , Maybe the least number of made putts in that contest gets it :eek: Maybe everyone who pats Pierre gets a shot of the Blaser :o

You all should plan on heading up the road to Vermont the next weekend to complete the best two weeks of competitive disc golf in 2008!

The Southwick's are always at the top of the "Host of the Year" ballot which is different than TD of the year.
So, in a sense there could be two awards coming to Marshall Street which would have to bring these two brothers from other mothers back together. (At least enough to let Jason change Dodge's kids diapers again, he misses that)

Needs editing.

That is some very funny stuff.... thanks for the good Read.

Someone asked what do they get at Pyramids for their $25 camping fee, and this is the question we've been so hesitant to answer.

I'll start the answer tonight. You get to feel like you're home.

And you get to play Pyramids for free. Please sign the waiver and write �Camping.� It's a nice little course.

Second, if you camp, please don't flick bottle caps, drop butts on the ground, or try to burn glass in the fire. I'd like to go on record here and say that absolutely everything else is allowed. Please speculate on what is allowed please. Hot tub is open to everyone,

The DDC lights work.

Did I mention the DDC lights work?

We welcome all of you. Pyramids� role is different this year. Prime Dics and Marshall Street are vying for market share, which means we have moments of absolutely hating Steve Dodge just for being clever. And being possessed by the devil.

We decided long ago not to let Steve Dodge get between us and our friends, even if Steve Dodge is the whole reason so many of our friends are visiting Leicester at the end of the July. You see how complicated it gets?

We apologize for the pretty steep $25 camping fee, and the chainsaw amputations for those caught attempting to sneak in. If, at the end of the weekend, you feel you haven�t received your $25 worth, please let us know.

I think what Steve Dodge is doing is stoopid. Don�t say I don�t know what I�m talking about. My wife Kelley and I and Lick helped run the MSDGC from 2004 to 2007. We always get the years mixed up. That�s four tournaments in three years, but somehow four years� worth. It only took three years to run four MSDGCs.

Then I burnt out, cause my goals were different from Steve Dodge�s stoopid goal of giving all the money you raised the whole year to the best players who come to your tournament. And being famous and on television, or at least cable television, but still where does it come in that the tournament directors don�t pay for the whole shebang?

Just to be clear, the splitting of 1st place cash in 2005 and 2007 after tying for 1st place after regulation? Horrifying. We�re built the way we�re built and Kelley DOES say my world is black and white. We still love all those guys, just reserve our right to have strong opinions about things.

There�s one part of that strong feeling about the splitting thing. I learned how to raise money being Dodge�s partner. I�ve now vowed to never add cash to a payout, putting the value elsewhere always. Don�t mean to come down too hard on people, but that was enough for me to put my fund-raising efforts elsewhere.

It�s my small way of saying your ARE accountable. Don�t split again.

You lost a Steve Dodge-trained fundraiser. Just add a zero with a straight face, is all you gotta do. Move the decimal point over and exaggerate your importance and figure out how much money the guy you�re talking to has discretion over.

It�s like learning how to ride a bicycle; you have to do it once to get it forever.

Always wanted to make courses. Steve? He just wants to make one course. No one is everyone.

<font color="blue">[borderline personal attack removed] </font> I�m a little bit of Mikey Kernan at the moment.

But two and a half weeks is a lot of time. You guys could get me out of it.

Please promise not to flip bottle caps and put glass in the fire. You have to see how perfect the DDC court is. It�s completely perfect, and there�s no reason the light should ever go out. Jay Reading did a sound test last year.

The Frizaks and Leslie were out of control a little, but around here that�s how you leave with trophies.

Me? I really don�t care how good you are at disc golf. I just like fun and friendly people. We especially like GOOD people, but that takes a little longer than a weekend to figure out. Wasn�t meant to sound so harsh. We already know a bunch of good people who are coming. It�s easy it�s complicated it depends how long you�re willing to talk to us.

We do love you. Just not Steve Dodge. Okay a little but suppressed.

Is this cool or what?

http://www.justin.tv/prime_discs

Aside from cool or what is "more suppressed" an option?

i just want to play an MSDGC again!!!!!!!!!!

Is this cool or what?

http://www.justin.tv/prime_discs

That was hoTT

Is Jay Reading growing that mop out JUST FOR LICK???

If you haven't seen him lately, he has flowing, Sampson-esque locks of auburn.

I guess I will resist the urge to shave. I am also going Kobaiyashi on y'all with the pie eating contest. I've lost 45 pounds and it's all been training for PIE.

I don't hesitate that Pyramids camping will be fun. If you stay at a hotel, you just don't get it.

With DDC at night and disc golf during the day when can I find time to sleep? I'm not a huge hot tub guy, so I guess between 6 and 7:30am will have to be all the sleep I get.



The Frizaks and Leslie were out of control a little, but around here that�s how you leave with trophies.



not sure how you forgot JG in there :)

oh and if anyone is driving up early I am hoping to get there by Tuesday from Buffalo, NY- I would be willing to pay gas from Buffalo- on for a ride and a couple trips into town over the following couple days.

Luke, I think you're the only person crazy enough to live in Buff O low.

will Bard still be sporting a 'stache?

will YOU?

BTW, Bard's was MUCH better.

BTW, Bard's was MUCH better.


nabs... he has quite the lip advantage

Too TTrue. The mustaches were gone the next day, after cleanup. It was the first annual mustache party, and at least 22 people had hidden upper lips. Trophies were made, but forgotten about. Bard would have taken it, hands down. TTrue test: Will your stach' hold a comb. Bards did, infact, we never found the comb in that mess. Next year will be better.
2 kegs - gone
3 thirty packs- gone
1 ice luge- melted
7 bottles of hard liquor- gone
watching 22 guys with mustaches take a shot from the luge,
......pretty [censored].

How do I post a picture of the party?

upload photo to photobucket (http://photobucket.com/) or flickr (http://www.flickr.com/)

yeah dog. If you haven't had Vegan's BBQ, you'd never know it was tofu.

I Kid. It's the real deal. He makes a mean pork butt.


Thank you, sir! I'm thinking of switching it up this year &amp; doing ribs (possibly even meaner than the pulled barbeque), but have yet to decide.


It'll be pork shoulder this year. My dad always told me not to farg with tradition. I'll listen for once.

Make sure to come by the pit Sat. evening to say, "Hi(gh)," &amp; snare some smoky-crispy bark (arguably the most delicious part of the whole animal).

add a TanK to the mix this year...

Yeah BoyZee...

Luke, I think you're the only person crazy enough to live in Buff O low.



actually I live in Las Vegas now, but I will be back home visiting family the week before, which is why I won't have a car

I got a warning from a PDGA Moderator. He said no more man-hugs if I keep skirting the verbal edge of propriety. Dang.

My post did get a little out of hand. I should probably institute a no more typing if one eye is closed rule.

Turns out I'm cross-eyed. Cross-eye AND take Adderall every day as prescribed by my HMO doctor. How do you think I can type this fast?

Just to reveal everything, it appears Kelley has Lyme Disease, judging from the red rash on maybe 10 percent of her body, debilitating headache on the whole top of the head down the back of her neck, chills followed by sweats and then more chills. I say "appears" because they gave her a test today and won't know till tomorrow. But her doctor said he thinks it's Lyme.

So anyway, because I started sounding a little too weenerish for Mikey in recent posts, occasionally giving up negative thinking, he started e-mailing me again. Hate mail on the surface, with every single way I'm a jerk and clueless. And the profanity! It's the kind of e-mail that, if posted in public, would warrant the death penalty. Even alluding to it could get me put on probation in a second -- especially since I'm already on pre-probation, as suggested by the anonymous "Board Moderator" who sent me the warning.

Anyway, the stuff that Mikey writes, and the pictures he posts with special captions, not to mention the nubile lasses in bikinis? That's great stuff. I can understand, however, that when the rule is no personal attacks, you gotta accept his banishment, even if he doesn't.

So anyway, we'll be good hosts. The official tournament festivities, such as the banquet on Saturday, will be at Maple Hill, frisbee central.

Pyramids will be frisbee sub-central. Hang back no rules no schedule here. We won't be cooking huge tournament meals, but our grill will be available to anyone, and campfires will be allowed. Plus we will be cooking a bunch of smaller meals for whoever's around. If no kegs come through from sponsors we'll provide a couple.

We'll get a big huge dumpster, and if we're good, we'll have a clearly-labelled recycling center right in front of it.

Lick isn't coming. Someone else will have to shave heads.

The MSDGC evolved into the Vibram Open, in an unstoppable way driven by an unstoppable force.

Forty grand to be awarded right next door, in just a couple weeks. There are at least five emotions associated with that strong enough to make you want to hit your head against the wall.

I'm hitting my head against the wall cause I won't be there.

Y NO LICK? BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I can't wait to see you all again, the year hiatus was a tough pill to swallow but when you get to meet our little STUD you'll understand.

For the record Jason, if I had known how you guys felt about splits I would have never considered it...it's just what was the norm on tour while I was out and about. I ended up with the worst of it obviously.

I'm going to miss not getting to play the Pyramids as part of the tourney, it carried me both years we were there, it will always be one of my favorites.... I can't wait to see you guys and hopefully try to complete our goal of getting a skip ace off the water and under the bridge on hole 5 at the Pyramids....we were very close last time we visited. ;) by the way I think we are still undefeated on that awesome DDC court ;) OKIE hyzer is a real beeeyatch to handle in DDC :D

I'm with MJ I hope there is a MSDGC comeback, both of ewes are AWESOME!!!!

Jason and Steve, send me a PM and tell me how you take your coffee.

If anyone is flying into Boston Tuesday and want to split a rental car or any other form of transportation PM me.

K-Mack

Hey Kev...I can get you there from Boston if you don't NEED a car once you arrive...

You guys are gonna miss out BIGTIME on a serious event the following weekend in VT. Remember when I told you not to miss the MSDGC? A Dan Doyle event at Sugarbush AND North Calais? OMG!!!

(I threw an Aviar 840 feet right to the middle of the fairway last year!)

Green Mountain Open comes with babysitting too.

You just strap junior's car seat on the Bravo Quad Chair Lift and he just rides up and down all day. No one can get futsy having that view all day. He can just let the bathroom fodder just fly right off, the mountain bikers like moguls :o

Mr. Godge in providing lifetime memories.

The video is for those that can't remember.

Look out for our SN boyz John Fowler and Jose Quest Ossa.

steve timm

Thanks Steve Timm, Kelley does not have Lyme. She has a good doctor who didn't give her antibiotics, and last night she sweat about a gallon of sweat with delirium tremors. And today's she's good again.

Suddenly a healthy women. The doctor said "good," and "huh?"

That's a good doctor. They didn't try to kill her by curing an undiagnosed disease. Now better. Reminds me last year when Jerel had an impacted tooth and just didn't go to the doctor and people were pleading with him, "You're going to die Jerel. Go to the doctor."

No insurance may have been the deal. Anyway, right before Jerel dies of massive facial swelling cause he'a got a serious infection in his mouth, the puss ball bursts and he's good as new almost instantly.

Anyway, about a dozen people offered exotic painkillers from various countries. Kelley doesn't need any of them anymore, so there's one more thing we have. I wanna grind 'em up into a big powdery mix right now and toss 'em in a blender with some fresh fruit and monkey brains, but, heck, we can wait a couple more weeks.

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

By the way should we invite Gill? Does Gill terrify me? No. He terrifies other people, though, cause he gets too close when he talks. We tell him again and again. Gill, white people need three feet.

I got my hand up for the pro Gill vote, but let's create an imaginarily diplomatic process, or at least an open forum. Gill or no Gill? That is the question.

*********************************************
Kevin McCoy awesome post. You and Courtney will always be two of our favorites, but, let's be honest, you should have been peeing your pants way more on that 30-footer before you jumped into the pond.

sexy

i rudely interrupt this thread for a beg-and-grovel post....

as Daniel Marcus so wonderfully mentioned a few posts ago, anyone at the Vibram Open that can possibly stick around for one more week should do whatever they have to do to head 3 hours north to gorgeous central Vermont for the 2008 Green Mountain Open August 1 thru 3.

TD Chris Mayone has done an absolutely fantastic job rounding up sponsors, to the tune of close to $16,000.

Assistant TD's Olander, Desch, and Doyle promise that this event will be one of the best events anywhere in the U.S. in 2008. For those of you that haven't had the North Calais experience, just ask the Readings, the Brinsters, and anyone else at the Vibram Open how awesome an experience North Calais is. TOP 5 on almost everyone's disc golf course list. It is a freak of nature.

The sponsor cash will go towards give-outs unlike anything you'll find elsewhere. Long-Sleeve Dri-Fit shirts; event logo Champion Monarchs and a Thursday nite clinic, both courtesy of MVP Healthcare; a gourmet lunch at North Calais and a kick-butt players party at Sugarbush with free food and all the Magic Hat beer you care to ingest; world-class scenery; swimming holes; chairlift rides; 3 fantastic courses that will challenge you and provide hours of fun; i mean come on, this is ridiculous....

and a cash purse in the A-Tier that is way above-average.

Tee Time Selection - 15 Minutes

the live vid rocks! so does steve dodge. aint no one does it better.

THAT was awesome Steve!!!!

Dodge RULES. If it weren't for McCoy spamming the chat with coffee ads the whole time, it would've been pretty enjoyable. :p :D

11:30... I guess I can stay up late the night before...

Come on....only 2 times while there was a break in the action :p

8 days till the van is rolling. Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina will be representing!

Woo....

Hoo...

49 by Daniel on the Whites at league tonight. That is like a 1040 rated round or some such nonsense.

49 is great. I shot a 47 once...

So who are the 5 spots qualifiers gonna be?

Is Paul McBeth coming? I'm gonna guess he is, since he's hittin all the NTs. I think he'll get in for sure.

Who else is playing the 5 spots? Anybody know of any top guys who plan on sneaking in?

Prime Discs' Pick the Winners Contest

kewl idea Stevo

Hey Steve,
I tried clicking on the caddy book, but the link wasn't working. I've gone through the course description - and there's really only one hole I'm not sure about whether it's changed - and that's hole 4. Has the tee moved after the #3 pin location changed?

Hole 4 has not changed. See you in four or so days!

my three ponies for this event are:

McCabe
Jenkins
O'Hara

C'mon...baby needs new shoes!

the van is rolling 8 deep now, from the south.

That's a lot of Vibram cash that will be coming home to the south!

Schmalfeld, Dollar, Makarovich, Rodenberg, Peckham, Childres, Smith, Bryant!

That's a whole lot of camping &amp; golfing craziness in one vehicle.

For sho

That's a lot of Vibram cash that will be coming home to the south!



It'd be cool to see which region gets the biggest percentage of the cash. We could do an economic impact study and maybe get the state of carolina (or are there two of them now?) to give us some economic stimulus money to get more carolina boys up here.

I count 12 from NC, SC, and GA. Plus that Fowler fellow who is pretty good when he plays up there is from LA.

I was not aware that Philadelphia was in Mississippi, though, Dean Pfeiffer...

Can we pick the winners again this year?

McCabe
Reading
Dambra

dean is from baltimore- fowler is either from west virginny, louisiana, or philthadelphia depending on how you look at it.

ready to escape for the north!

112 degree heat index right now here. 100 degrees tomorrow!!! what's the temps in Leicester? 80s... LOW 80s.

Hey Matty, Tell $ to hook up the Sawks VIP connection for us!!! ;)

who has time to go in for a game? It's a long ride into Fenway from the course...

Monday after..... ;) Angels vs Sawks

$ Needs to hollar at the ole CUZ and HOOK UZ UP!!! :D;)

The best two weeks of competitive disc golf in 2008 starts in 30 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

see ya there

Getting ready to head up tomorrow from Maryland and I have decided to take the western way up so as not to deal with the tolls and congestion coming up 95 so I know I will take I 83 to Harrisburg then 81 north to Scranton from there I'm thinking I 84 to I 87 to 90 is that the best way to go? If not what do you suggest? Thanks!

That's the route JG and I took the past 2 yrs - and it's a very nice drive!!

84 to Hartford then north would be better than up to 90 in my book.

84 to Hartford then north would be better than up to 90 in my book.



this is the route we take, although we don't get on 90. we take 20 east for about 10 miles to rte 56 then take that north for 8 or so miles to marshall st.

I'm #1!!!!!!






On the wait list.

Matt Peckham has left the building. Look for a live interview with him sometime on Friday.

I'll be rolling into Leicester around midnight on Thursday night - glad I have a noonish tee time :) Plane gets in around 10 @Logan. Unless I can crash a local floor in Boston??? Anybody? Bueller??

Any news from the dubs qualifier?

Ray, Ben, &amp; Porky should be there ~9am tomorrow.

Flying in tomorrow !!! At long last, after 4 years of dreaming about it I'm finally going to get to play Maple Hill.

I'll be flying into Boston at noon and hope to get everything squared away so that I can get at least 2 hours of practice.

For anyone who is flying out of Boston on Monday ... eeeeeaaarrrrlllyyyyyy Monday morning, I have rented a car and am willing to give a ride to the airport to whomever would like to split gas. I'll be leaving around 3 am so I'm sure I won't get any takers on that, but if there is any one of you who would, please come talk to me.
My name is Jose Ossa. Cell number is 225-315-8736

jason, can't wait bud. See you in 18 hours.

the van is just past Harrisburg. PA. Three states to go!

I would have driven off the road while viewing or listening to the Dewey Cox film. That ranks in the top 3 worst movies of all time.

After that we watched crank and some always sunny in philly

It's seriously wet up here though. 2" of rain expected today. We got here at 6am and are hanging at toms donuts eating some awesome breakfast.

Walk hard is awesome.

It was a beautiful ride.

Good luck there Shooter! Pass on the cheers to the contingency from the south!

Home page now has links to live scoring, what's happening and webcam (when it's up)

http://www.maplehillopen.com/default.html

Get 'em, get 'em, get 'em Innovan bunch. Don't let all the stuff in the back get wet. If that stuff swells you'll never get the doors closed again. :D

Hi,

When do you expect the webcam to be up?

Looks like it's raining on Leicester this morning. Dubs should be interesting:) Good luck guys - see you in the morning

Hi,

When do you expect the webcam to be up?



We are shooting for this afternoon after the dubs so we can interview the wet dogs as they finish. The rain is hampering us a bit as we hold our beautiful new babies in one hand, the umbrella in the other hand, and our Brazlilian Water in our third hand.

WASS Up!!!! Tejas is about to be in the HIZZY

Are you even playing Worlds? :confused:


Good luck Bratten

The Dubs are off and running. We are doing the live scoring via our What's Happening Blog:

http://08vo.primediscs.com/happening.asp

You will need to hit refresh periodically. The Ace Dubs starts at 5:00 PM. The women and ancillary (aka birdie) dubs are began at 2:00 and 1:00 PM EST respectively.

Thanks for keeping us updated. Its pretty awesome all this extra stuff you and your staff are doing...good luck to everyone this weekend.

Someone please tell me that this will be on DVD sometime in the near future!! The MSDGC videos are freakin' awesome and I can only hope this tourney will be available on DVD as well for those of us that only wish we could be there!

Will the clinic by Jay Reading be available on youtube? I've never been able to find any of the NT Clinics anywhere. That would be great!

They ask at the clinics to not post any video you may take online. I believe that they will be releasing a video?

Leaving for the airport to fly to BAHSTUN in about an hour wooohoooooo :)

Thanks for keeping us updated. Its pretty awesome all this extra stuff you and your staff are doing...good luck to everyone this weekend.



We got the webcam up and running about an hour ago. Should have some footage tomorrow.

Do I leave tonight or in the morning?

Looks like the top two teams in the ancillary dubs woulda smoked the ace dubs teams :X

Pretty decent piece from local news:

Thanks Chris, I've been hearing great things about your work for next weekend. Good luck, I hope bunches of folks traveling decide to hit both events.

"They ask at the clinics to not post any video you may take

Thanks. I would definitely buy a DVD of all/some of the NT clinics.

GET there bean bag

What a fantastic news piece. ....life is GOOD!!!!
Good luck to all the players ;)......especially you CRAIG!!!! GO BABY GO :D

When will the Live webcame be up? Technical difficulties or too busy with other stuff? It's hard to live vicariously through you guys if we can't see some of tthe action! Save us!

Will there be live scoring today? Please say no, as I really do have a lot of work to do.

Scores are trickling in.

PA's 2008 State Champ Nate Krahn with a decent showing of +1

~1020 rated Par?!... nice! :)

Avery's in at -3

Just got back from there. Ground maybe a little wet and ponds a little high, but dare I say the weather was perfect!!

Vibram putter feels pretty good, but has yet to be thrown.

Still wondering if this event is getting video coverage for a DVD release? MSDGC videos are the best and I want to see this one too!

I am *so* not missing this next year. Even if it means being at my computer when the clock strikes midnight on New Years to get in with the early reggers or whenever it was that reg opened!

hands down the best tournament I have ever been apart of. Too bad I had such a bad finish!!!

For the Vibram layout, which competitors will be playing all weekend, Par has been set to a score of 59. This score is an estimated 1020-rated round based on the layout, and all +/- To-Par references in the scores are based from that number.



Sorry, but I don't agree with this. I don't understand why one would set par for a 1020-rated round. You set Gold par for 1000-rated players or Blue par for 950-rated players. SSA was 62.8 (http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournament_results.php?TournID=7290&amp;year=2008&amp;incl udeRatings=1#Open) and the scoring average for the entire field was 67.2.

I think it says everything that only FIVE players out of the entire tournament field (which includes EIGHTEEN 1000+ rated players!) are under "par."

I hear that Jeff. The par is definitely closer to 62. A little tweaking like western, pa and the course could be the best par 66 in the world!! I agree with the 1000 rated tee system as well.

The course is absolutely amazing though.

Round 2 Tee Times are now posted:

Maple Hill Open - Saturday Tee Times (http://www.maplehillopen.com/default.html)

The course is absolutely amazing though.



I've played Maple Hill several times and it is indeed one of the top 10 I've played lifetime out of more than 175 courses in the U.S. and Canada over the last 13 years!

I think it says everything that only FIVE players out of the entire tournament field (which includes EIGHTEEN 1000+ rated players!) are under "par."



http://www.masters.org/en_US/scores/index.html

Let the arguing begin. :D

easily in my top 3 out of 125+ now.

Maple Hill
Moraine
and then either (Knob Hill, Patapsco, WHipping Post, Forked Run, and I'm sure a few others)

This layout we are using is just superb. Same layout all 3 rounds. PERFECT

Steve, can you please note the pars which you've listed on your tournament website here:

http://www.maplehillopen.com/courses.html

which are based primary on scoring averages from the 2007 MSDGC:

Hole#1: Par 4
Hole#2: Par 3
Hole#3: Par 4
Hole#4: Par 3
Hole#5: Par 3
Hole#6: Par 4
Hole#7: Par 3
Hole#8: Par 3
<u>Hole#9: Par 4</u>
out: par 31

Hole#10: Par 4
Hole#11: Par 4
Hole#12: Par 5
Hole#13: Par 3
Hole#14: Par 3
Hole#15: Par 3
Hole#16: Par 4
Hole#17: Par 4
<u>Hole#18: Par 4 </u>
in: par 34

total: par 65

So if you've listed the course as par 65 on your tournament website, why are you now calling it par 59?!? :confused:

easily in my top 3 out of 125+ now.

Maple Hill
Moraine
and then either (Knob Hill, Patapsco, WHipping Post, Forked Run, and I'm sure a few others)





My top 5 are the following:

Highbridge Gold, Highbridge, WI
The Woodshed &amp; Whipping Post, Paw Paw, WV (both courses)
Warwick Town Park, Warwick, NY
Moraine State Park, Portersville, PA
Maple Hill, Leicester, MA

Knob Hill and Patapsco are both fantastic world class courses, but don't make my top 20.

So if you've listed the course as par 65 on your tournament website, why are you now calling it par 59?!? :confused:



It gets us some free publicity. Jeff, I genuinely wish you were here arguing this with me online. Then it would REALLY look like we were doing it just to keep the tourney thread on top. :cool:

I expect we'll be doing live scoring of the GM groups tomorrow. It will be interesting to see who makes their cut (to six).

http://www.masters.org/en_US/scores/index.html
Let the arguing begin.


Can't even mount an argument with this because they don't have ratings as a tool to help set an appropriate par :D

ultimately it doesnt really matter... have a wide open hole thats only 200' and call it a par 5 if you want... it doesnt affect the scoring average and everyone is still playing the same hole.

I actually think its funny because I can see some Pros complaining since they might not be under par and are used to always beeing waaaaay under par.

It actually does matter on a hole by hole basis specifically when a round is based on tee times because you can tell how well a player is playing relative to others who have played a different number of holes. That is if you're looking at live scoring. No live scoring then par has marginal value as an end of round measuring stick. At that point round ratings have more interest and those are independent of par.

here are some interesting holes from today though...

Hole 6 ... Par 3 (avg 4.08), no deuces, 14 pars, 25 bogies, 10 double bogies &amp; 3 triple or higher

Hole 12... Par 4 (avg 4.6), no deuces, 25 pars, 23 bogies, 4 double

17 also produces not deuces... the scoring spread looks terrible as well ... (par3, avg 3.56) with about 1/2 getting par and 1/2 bogie

For what it's worth, these were my notes to Steve last August based on the scoring info he provided. I think this is close to the same course being played but perhaps with some tweaks:

Hole 11 has a poor distribution with 78% 4s. Looks like it might be easier to make this hole easier and produce more birdie 3s. Hole 13 comes in with an adjusted average of 2.38 making it a little too easy for gold level. Not sure what your pars are but the stats indicate these holes would be par 4s: 1, 6, 7, 9, 11, 17 &amp; 18. Hole 12 would be a par 5. Hole 3 is a tweener hole that maybe could be tweaked easier or harder to make it a more solid par 4 or just a tough par 3 depending on what you wanted there. The SSA comes out to <font color="red"> 62.8 (sound familiar?)</font> so a total par of 63 or 64 fits nicely with the hole stats.

FYI... on that note... here's a breakdown from the top 50 scorers for today...

http://08vo.primediscs.com/roundstats.asp?rid=1

Okay Craiger.....breathe, breathe, breathe..... and remember you are the BBE :D:D

here are some interesting holes from today though...

Hole 6 ... Par 3 (avg 4.08), no deuces, 14 pars, 25 bogies, 10 double bogies &amp; 3 triple or higher

Hole 12... Par 4 (avg 4.6), no deuces, 25 pars, 23 bogies, 4 double

17 also produces not deuces... the scoring spread looks terrible as well ... (par3, avg 3.56) with about 1/2 getting par and 1/2 bogie



Hole#6 has OB running the entire right-hand side of the hole which is why the scoring average is artificially inflated. It's 435' long, but severely downhill. This hole has been deuced several times and I actually agree with Steve designating it a par 3 for the tournament.

Hole#12 plays 750 feet, first through a tunnel in the woods, then taking a hard dogleg right before finishing uphill for the final 250 feet. I've never heard of a single score of 3 here, and it really should be a pro par 5 which is what it was labeled last year. (It also produced a scoring average of 4.90 last year (http://livescoring.marshallstreetdiscgolf.com/roundstats.asp?rid=4))

Hole#17 is one that is clearly a pro par four. The hole plays 650 feet with a 90 degree dogleg after the drive! Really, with a forced placement shot because of the dogleg, this is the textbook definition of a pro par four hole.

FYI... on that note... here's a breakdown from the top 50 scorers for today...

http://08vo.primediscs.com/roundstats.asp?rid=1



Looking at these scoring averages, here is my revised breakdown for the current layout:

Hole#1: Par 4
Hole#2: Par 3
Hole#3: Par 3
Hole#4: Par 3
Hole#5: Par 3
Hole#6: Par 3
Hole#7: Par 3
Hole#8: Par 3
<u>Hole#9: Par 4</u>
out: par 29

Hole#10: Par 3
Hole#11: Par 4
Hole#12: Par 5
Hole#13: Par 3
Hole#14: Par 3
Hole#15: Par 3
Hole#16: Par 4
Hole#17: Par 4
<u>Hole#18: Par 4 </u>
in: par 33

total: par 62

Since SSA was 62.8, this would make a lot more sense. You'd also have 20 golfers under par at the top of the Open division which intuitively seems a lot more reasonable.

DOESNT LOWEST TOTAL SCORE STILL WON WHO REALLY CARES ABOUT PAR. HEY JEFF WHY DONT U ACTUALLY PLAY A TOURNEY INSEAD OF WORRYING ABOUT PAR. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK STEVE

#1) STOP YELLING. Ever heard of the Caps Lock key? http://opera.oslocity.org/caps/capslock.jpg

#2) As Scoring Director of the last two MSDGCs, several NT events, the 2005 and 2007 PDGA Professional World Championships, the upcoming Green Mountain Open Super Tour event in Vermont, and the upcoming 2008 Pro/Am World Championships in Kalamazoo, MI, it's my job to worry about par!

I have to say, being able to see the scores on a per hole basis is really enlightening. It allows me (at least) to get a better feel for the tournament layout as a whole and is something I'd like to see incorporated to all NT level events.

Care to elaborate on what you are considering par at the worlds courses on the worlds thread?

Looks like a score of 53 will break into the top 10 best rounds of all time for this SSA range. Feldberg missed it by one yesterday.

JL thats hysterical. You'll have to promise and show me how you do that w/the pix when you come over. Listen don't get into any scuffles before VT ....... I need you fully intact for at least the next week! :D

Chris

I don't think Jeff has seen the courses yet. My guesses for the ones I've seen:
Robert Morris: 54-55
Cold Brook: 54-56
Albion: 55-57
Oshtemo: 56-57
Begg: 57
Kimball: 58

Avery with a 51 and the best round by 5 strokes.

Avery's 51 at unofficial 1085 will put him as the second best round all time in the SSA 60-66 category behind Climo's 50 at 1091 on Hippodrome. Both courses have almost identical SSAs (but par on Hippo was set at 63 :eek:). With Brian Schweberger's 39 at Buckhorn, today we have two players shooting the second best rounds of all time in their course categories!

Go Shooter!!!... Nice shooting today Peckham... 2 NC'ers in the top 5!!!

Come on K-Mac and Cort!

For anyone who has not played Maple Skills this score is just plain stupid silly and I really cannot believe it.

I just wanted to congratulate Steve and the team that's putting on this NT event. As someone who grew up and lived in New England, it's great to see a major PDGA event happening in NEFA-land!

looks like thunderstorms early. Radar looks ugly. Heat lightning now.

At least it won't be hoTT! Good luck Peckham

He just said it was HEAT lightning, what do you mean it's not hot :D

looks like thunderstorms early. Radar looks ugly. Heat lightning now.



Good luck Peckman, Henry, Tradd, Jeb, Jack and the rest of the Innovan bunch. Hunker down if there's lightning, if ya git hungry eat sumpthin and if ya git tired pull over. :D

NC keeping it real! Tear it up today boyz!

Peckham- you stand in front of the camera again and I'm gonna slap you next time I see you.

Looks like Avery's off to a good start after 5 holes adding 2 more to his lead. Angela went thru a rough spot losing the lead to Des after three holes and dropped a few more in a row but has now bounced back to within one picking up four shots on the past three holes. Val has the best round of the three going right now and is within two of Des.

looks like thunderstorms early. Radar looks ugly. Heat lightning now.



If you guys get the same thunderstorms with hailstones that came through Pennsylvania, it ain't gonna be pretty. :(
