Sorry Rock, but I'm afraid you'll be required to limit your use of thumbers for this one. Not sure they'd appreciate some of your "tombstones" on the greens. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif ;) :D

Did Tupleo Bay in Garden City not want us back? :D

Hey Pooch, long time no see/hear. Yeah, like I would/could hit the green. A backhand would probably be a good Idea huh. Darn. Get Registered for the RDGC so we can bag apart.lol.

Might be too much to ask, buTT we are asking anyway.

I have talked with Pat today. I have agreed to be the TD for the 2008 event. We have not yet agreed upon a name for the event this year as the format is still up the air.

It is very possible that this event could be played at both Tupelo Bay and Harbor View.

The only way we will be able to do this is if we can fill 2 fields of 72. We will need to fill the fields at least 1 month before the event.

The entry fee will be $100 per player (PayPal will be $105).

Mike Norris (I can't thank him enough for all he does for us in this region) will have the PayPal link up for us by Monday night of the coming week.

If anyone has any questions please email me at:

Kirk

As Kirk has said he will be the TD for the 2008 event I will be the Co-TD. Tupelo Bay has committed to having us back on the second weekend of December once again (December 13th and 14th). I am looking into the possibility of adding a second course (Harbor View) to the event and should know next week if it is a go.

-When I first started the event I had always hoped to create a made for DVD round of 4-5 top pros playing the course. Preferably on the Friday / Night before the tournament. Invite the public out to the course to walk around or rent a cart and watch the action. Would you be interested is watching this action? Or would you rather be out on the course playing?

-I have always wanted to create a tradeshow atmosphere where disc golf companies and vendors gathered to do business without being during a MAJOR disc golf event. Have companies send players and representatives to Myrtle Beach for the week to get pictures and video for the new year marketing. Matt Peckham of Innova has been doing this for the last 3 years. Many pictures that Innova uses in the brochures, marketing programs, and electronic communications uses photos that were shot at Tupelo Bay each year in December. The weather is typically quite nice and the course is in terrific condition. If you know of someone who is interested in getting involved with this opportunity please email [email protected] or [email protected] We will be providing a variety of sponsorship packages and pro-shop space for you to should off your goods.

Some people may remember the Harbor View Challenge I hosted in Little River SC in 2006. Most don�t know it but that course is the sister course of Tupelo Bay and is owned by the same people. Harbor View is a great course and can be set out into a very difficult layout. Little River is about 30 minutes North of Tupelo Bay. What I am getting at is that we could potentially host a huge event using both courses. Harbor View even has an onsite Sleep Inn hotel, putt putt course and many amenities and beaches close by. The entire disc golf course is well lit until 11:00pm. I also hosted a distance competition on the driving range at night under the lights. That could possibly happen again as well. Billy Crump are you out there?

Do you think we could get 120+ people to travel to Myrtle Beach 2 weeks before Christmas? The tournament has typically had between 50 and 80 players. These numbers are encouraging for the managers of Tupelo Bay but larger numbers are needed to get them to continue to invite us back and worth it to throw a second course into the mix.
You have heard about this event for the last few years and the stories continue to roll in. Let�s take this event to the next level!
Are you in?

I'm thinking A Tier. Are you thinking A Tier???

I'll be there and I think I've already recruited a few people to play this year too. Would expanding the field mean that there would be more divisions than just Open and Advanced?

Terry G. just pointed out to me earlier this week that I was in the Innova catalog. That was a surprise. :cool:

I had a great time at Tupelo last year and these changes are sounding even better. Thanks for all the work your putting into this Pat and Kirk.

Haha.

Not Barry. (http://www.innovadiscs.com/catalog08/2008_web2%2046.pdf)

Qusetion, do to the nature of this course, are Thumbers going to be forbidden because of the possibility od Disc Marks.?

Heck no

but they should

if that were the case, you'd have to rule out spike hyzers, tomahawks, shots that hit a tree and fell straight down into the ground, ummm what else.... walking, throwing, progressing through the course would all be illegal.

I.m in :)

There has always been quite a bit of concern about discs making marks on the ball golf greens, but time has shown that for the most part disc golfers have little to no negative impact to the course or putting greens. The design at Tupelo Bay has very few holes that you would want to throw a thumber off the tee, but I may be wrong. Schweb can you elaborate? It has been my experience that if a disc does spike straight into the putting surface it can be repaired the same as a golf ball mark using a small tool available at all golf pro shops. I handed them out at one of my events. Remove the disc, use the mark tool to pry up the damaged / compacted area and then gently step on the area to try to reform the grass to how it was.
Greens are O.B. just dont hit them.
Thats me in the orange shirt behind Toomes ripping the drive in the DGU ad. Good times for sure!

I dont throw many thumbers out there. The few that I do, the greens should not come into play at all. Any spiking shots thrown towards baskets should not be in any danger of going near many of the greens. but maybe that is just me.

Opinion - from a cost savings stand point I would not want to make this an A-tier.

Kirk

maybe this could be one of those special purpose events, where the PDGA grants a higher status because of economic impact... or, in this case, just an awesome tournament at an odd time of year. I would think it would be a good time to look for sponsorship, since there's very little in terms of competing events (both for PDGA players, and also in the local community). Could help to elevate this into an even bigger status event. The last A Tier of the year. With the first event of the year in Vegas, let the last be in Myrtle Beach. A great way to wrap the year.

One thing you also have to think about though is that A Tier requires current PDGA membership to play.

it's December. if you aren't a registered member, it's a great time to register for that extra bonus of November and December free.

Not a problem for me!

And that's who it's all about

I just might have to escape the WI winter and come down for this one. We'll see if it works out with work. The tournament definitely sounds like it's worth hike!

And that's who it's all about



Yes, thats a good point. I brought up the fact that it might not be the best idea to make it an A Tier b/c non members couldn't play b/c I'm a member and can play either way.
Are you serious?

why would the td's want to torture themselves by running an a-tier? just guessing but i'd imagine kirk has had about enough of that.

[quoteAre you serious?

[/QUOTE]

Always when it comes to you

Get some PDGA staff to help run it. They are only a few hours away... Hand the paperwork off for them to handle.

I would think an A Tier in Myrtle would pull a lot of good players from around the country, where a B Tier would pull a lot from around the region, but maybe not enough to fill 2 courses.

why would the td's want to torture themselves by running an a-tier?



My reasoning for my event (Raleigh Disc Golf Championship) being an A Tier in the upcoming years is so I can have a higher entry fee and bigger payout.

I can have a higher entry fee and bigger payout.


this is what i personally would like to see Disc Golf get away from. bolster the payout with sponsors added cash not player's playing for each others entry.

I am not saying you have not done a great job raising money i am just saying this etho's needs to be discouraged if we are to grow as an association of Professionals. an AM's opinnion :D

I'm 100% with you Dave. Trust me I wish I could have a 50,000 dollar purse with no entry fee.

I will probably be there this year, I was sad to miss it last time. I am always willing to help out with some of the paperwork and what not, but i will be playing as well!

I would suggest the A tier if you want to draw that many people to the beach, that close to the Holidays. Its really not that much different than a B tier aside from the added cash requirements. If there is enough sponsorship it shouldn't be a problem.

in my experience running events from weeklies to a-tiers, it is hitting folks up for sponsorship that is by far the most loathsome task. the other logistics don't differ greatly from one event to the next.

rob, while i am happy to see your enthusiasm for running your event and gladly welcome another committed td to the ranks- i submit that once you have done it a few times raising that type of cash gets to be a real pain in the buTT.

ahmen!!

Well my attitude is if everyone just did it once, think how much better this sport would be.

Way to few people do everything.

I just might have to escape the WI winter and come down for this one. We'll see if it works out with work. The tournament definitely sounds like it's worth hike!

Just ask Barry how the course is.

I've only played this tournament one time. I don't care if you make it an A, B, C tier or non-sanctioned, I will never miss this tournament. I do think that you would have a hard time filling 2 courses.

I've never been a TD. I think you would have a hard time raising enough money for a tournament that is so close to Christmas. Especially if you go after local sponsorhip, December is off season.

I'm playing either way. Kirk, if you decide to take on the task of making this an A-Tier, you can count me in for a hole sponsorship.

BTW, did Paypal open yesterday or is that next Monday 7/28?

Is it December yet?

Mike is running a little behind with getting the registration up. He should be able to get it done soon.

I do like the idea of an A-tier but raising that kind of money can be difficult. Also, very little of the entry fees for this event go to the purse. Because of greens fees and cart fees most of the entry fees go to the course. If we do get to use both Tupelo Bay and Harbor View then those fees will double.

Jay, thank you for your offer of a hole sponsorship. I wish I could get everyone that was coming to this event to make that kind of committment. Then it would be easy to hit the added cash requirement for an A-tier.

I have always thought it would be a neat concept to have every player find a local business (from their hometown) that would be willing to sponsor and advertise at a tournament.

If this event filled and everyone brought in 1 $25 sponsorship we would have $3,600 added cash.

Should we put an additional PayPal link for $25 sponsorship for the event?

Sounds good to me. If people want an A-Tier then put it in there hands. Personally, I would accept sponsorhip moneys and make it a better paying B-Tier. I don't know all the rules so this may not be allowed. How many big names do you think we could draw down to Myrtle Beach 2 weeks before Christmas? Even as an A-Tier I still don't think you could fill 2 courses.

LOL. Piggly Wiggly is probably the last place I'd think would have a great beer selection. I'll have to check it out though. Just another reason I'll be at Tupelo again this year.

Is the online reg. available yet? Sorry to be so persistent, I already booked a room and am ready to get signed up. This tournament is going to be the ish!!

pppprrrrrrrrrrrrnnnnnTT

best event ever. regardless. Actually. Howabout only the REAL course this year.

BUMP.

Do we have anymore information for the online registration? I already have a room and am ready for this tournament. What about a time warp machine, anybody......Bueller?

Online Reg? Hole sponsorship information? Butt naked freaks and tasty umbrella drinks? Viking Inn?

ONLY THe REal course this year?

I'm trying to work out my exam schedule so I can finally make it down there this year...

The CLASH at Tupelo Bay! Billy Crump called me last week about this. What do you think? Would you come be a spectator, buy the DVD, support the project.... Lets hear it!

CLASH at Tup sounds sweet!

What's the dealy on this event!?! We're not going to North Myrtle are we?

There's only ONE Tupelo...

This will only be my second time at this event, but I liked how last year went. Clash at Two Pillow Bay sounds like the chit to me. Maybe if some of the top Pro's played the course they would see how sweet it is and we can have an A-Tier next year.

Any word on registration? I heard the Viking Inn burned down.

I could see not using the short course. I definitely don't want to see another course thrown into the mix. I say 3 rounds of 18 on the big course and plenty of beer drinking.

Shultz, Schweb, ZZ and more have all seen and conquered. That is the top pros.

I played the first 2 years and I am coming back this year for sure. I will spread the word in our club and see what we can do to support in attendance and spectatorship. I did support last year with the sweet Zonedriven CFR Destroyer purchase, but we can do more as a club close to the event.

How can the Charleston DGC help?

also if they shoot a Clash DVD down there I'd imagine some of the guys would play in the tourney as well

hoping to make my first tupelo bay appearance!

Clash, Tupelo style...

One round of Tupelo. To see which team tees first, one round of Flipcup. On every third hole, another round of Flipcup, each Flipcup victory is worth 1 stroke. winner is team who shoots low score... round score - Flipcup wins.

54 - 5 = 49 to 52 - 2 = 50

It's a DVD, it's about fun.

Schweb will win.

Good call thinking about alternate formats mixed with disc golf but maybe think more ball golf/disc golf clash ;)

You have never been to this tournament, Stack, have you??? :)

3 rounds of 18!!!!
My favorite event of the year. Don't tell anyone, but there is word about:
All the ZZ, a couple of Phila boys, a couple of Po'Boys, Maybe a Iowa boy, and a minnysooota guy.

es, 3 rounds of 18, Tupelo Executive course.

Hahaha! Yeah, flip-cup would embody the essence of Tupelo!

I too vote for the 3 rounds of executive course!

I shot 7 under total last year on 18 holes of the short course. Killed me, that little thing did.

nope matt... never played the event but hoping to make it this year! (whats the date for this pig? still 13/14? not on pdga calendar yet)

i have played the short course before and know that I'd rather not play it in a tourney... fun throwing all those thumbers but could do without that course in exchange for 3 rounds on the BIG course!

This is my vote for Tupelo Clash DVD:

1 round Disc golf
1 round Flip Cup
1 round Putt Putt Golf

That would work too. the TTriple TThreaTT.

I hope it's still 13-14, I already have a room. If not I guess I'll just have to spend the week at the beach.

I�d love to play three round on the exec course, but realistically, I don�t think you can get two rounds in on the executive course on Saturday.

1. Odds are that there will be frost and they will not allow us on the course until it thaws (around 10am)
2. You would have to get rid of the lunch hour.
3. We would have to have the carts (and we almost lost that privilege last year)
4. Doesn�t it get dark around 6 or 7 in December and only the back 9 is lit?

Charge an extra 5$...provide bag lunch. people are in carts, and can eat.
ham and cheese with lettuce tomato, bag chips, drink and banana(all bananas not eaten will be eaten by bobby).
I hate lunch hour anyway because its always lunch hourS.

I could be wrong, but I don't remember having to wait on any frost last year. I also think we would've had time for 2 rounds of 18. Didn't we play 27, 18, 27 last year? I know we cut the second round short but we got atleast 9 holes in.

I would rather play 18 morning, 9 afternoon. Or, if we are gonna play the short course, lets do it with LIDS. That is what it is made for.

True, we didn't wait on frost last year, but I know we did in '06. Basicly, I'm stating that we need to have a lot of things go our way for 2 rounds/day on the exec.

I agree with the idea of lunch on the course. Just give the last card long enough to visit the car and go to the bathroom while the TD shuffles the cards.

Last year, we did play 18 for the second round. (back 9 and Par 3 becuase they were lit)

2 rounds of 18 Saturday all Executive (shotgun).
1 round of 27 Sunday - entire course with tee times. However, I would like to start on the short course so the tournament doesn't end there.

Nothing cooler than watching the lead card in a golf cart.

Lunch is served at 1:00 from a cart (or 2) that deliver them around the course. That would make lunch easy, and people can easily eat and play and drive.

You can even pack your own favorites on the cart in case you are hungry during the round.It's a cart and there are lots of storage options on them.

06 was pretty freakish cold. I seem to remember.

Open Pro, Open Womens, Open Masters, Advanced. These should be the divisions.

If you don't think you can compete in these divisions, you probably will slow the play up. This is a tournament that really needs to run efficiently.

Anybody disagree with me?

LOL!

Seriously though i love these ideas! limited divisions... lunch in the carts (maybe give the opt out option if you want to pack your own)

CAP Advanced entry to 33% of field until the last 2 weeks. This allows pros to fill the field but still allows for local and regional players to come if the field does not fill completely. Last year we had 33 Open, 1 Open woman, 26 advanced, and 4 Advanced Masters. Some of the Pro Masters merged into the Open field. We should be able to fill this tournament this year. We only missed filling by 8 last year. We can round up a lot more pros if we do a Frizzak Open call to arms. You on it this year, Sjur?

The executive course is definitely a course if you can't bring it, you might as well stay in the golf cart and drink beer. Wait a minute.....

If we go to 27 holes, the hole order should be 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-TEMP COURSE-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-18. This allows the top pros to finish on the Pro course.

Open Masters




Anybody disagree with me?



I disagree with your word choice.

How can a protected division be open?

It's Pro Open, Pro Masters.

Sorry - just a pet peeve of mine.

Who is running this event? Cap 'E' tan?
Surprised he has not chimed in yet. All great ideas. I think we should design a Fundraiser soon. How a'bout it Kirk. Pretty sjur we can come up with a National best seller.

If we go to 27 holes, the hole order should be 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-TEMP COURSE-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-18. This allows the top pros to finish on the Pro course.



Except the middle course you call the temp course is the only one that is actually not temp but a course always in the ground.

ok, SJURT Course.

Technicalitees.

Peckham, Do you have another best seller in you? I got a few ideas.

I could, but it would have to wait til after the Championship.

Matt

So what about registration? I'm ready to get the ball moving. I like MTL's idea. 2 rounds of 18 on Saturday (shotgun) and 1 round of 27 Sunday (tee times). Starting on the shule course and finishing on the big daddy course. I also think the rule about consumption during a PDGA sanctioned round should be waived for this one. Can the TD do that?

I do have lots of photos from past Tupelo Bay Opens.

We only missed filling by 8 last year. We can round up a lot more pros if we do a Frizzak Open call to arms. You on it this year, Sjur?



We should always be able to fill it up. Every year, I beg people from Upstate SC to come. I have to have at least 4 people to make it worth 'de-winterizing' the house, and every year they back out on me at the last minute.

mr head... (im too lazy to look it up but...) I don't think its against the PDGA rules to consume frosty beverages during the round... its just usually illegal because its not allowed @ the parks the courses play in. If its allowed on the course it could be allowed during the round.

Thanks Stack. I've never seen a ball golf course that looked down on consumption. I'm not looking to get blitzed, but I see this tournament as a Pre-Christmas vacation.

Korybski, talk to Cuban. We talked about this tournament a few weeks ago and I think he had interest in going. I know he has played it before.

100% incorrect.

The Competition Manual states that "Consumption of alcohol or use of any illegal substance
from the 2-minute warning until the player�s scorecard is
submitted" is a DQ in any B Tier or higher. This will be a B Tier or higher.

There is another part that also adds in the part on areas where it is illegal such as parks, however for this tournament, the alcohol rule only applies from the 2 min warning until the card is turned in.

And getting that rule to be revoked not only will not happen, is a terrible idea. We already had idiots last year being drunk and driving on the greens and we don't more idiots doing the same. Alcohol only helps to increase situations like this.

I haven't chimed in yet because I have been very busy at work. However, I have read everyones posts because I have this thread set to email me every time a new post appears.

We are considering using both Tupelo and Harbour View for this event. The details have not been worked out yet. Please keep the ideas flowing. This event is for the players. If you want something ask for it. If I can I will try to pull it off for you.

I will check with Mike and see when we will have the PayPal link up. I thought it was already done.

If everyone that wants to play in this event came up with an additional $100 (preferably from a sponsor) the payout would be that much better. One of the issues with this event is that at least half (if not more) of the entry fee goes to the course.

If we don't use both courses I would like to play 3 rounds of 18 at Tupelo all on the executive course. The time constraint last year happened because we tried to play 2 rounds of 27 in one day. We could play 2 rounds of 36 on the executive course without a break on Saturday and then 1 round of 18 on Sunday.

Please keep the banter going and let your friends know how cool this event is.

Kirk

may be a reason to have a killer C tier! (i forgot about the c tier thing but remember now from past discussions on the msg bard)

i do see your point though... have heard people were a little crazy on carts and ya'll almost lost the privilege and it would suck to have buzz'd drivers ruining it for everyone... (not to be confused with driving with a buzzz which is a great idea more often than you'd think ;) )

Alcohol mixed with morons that can't behave like adults. That was the problem last time. You can easily control yourself and act civilized. You're probably right though.

I now vote that we have 2 rounds of 9 Saturday and 1 round of flip cup at The Viking Sunday.

thanks for chiming in kirk and sorry for all the emails

oops... that was another one wasn't it

dang... sorry for another ;)




seriously though... thanks for picking up the reigns on this one again this year! YOU THE MAN!

I don't mind the emails at all.

I can see it already. People slamming beers at 9 in the morning until the warning.

"...Korybski, talk to Cuban. We talked about this tournament a few weeks ago and I think he had interest in going. I know he has played it before. "

I do and every year he decides to stay at Travis Sauls condo which is 60 minutes away instead of my house/condo which is 5 minutes...and near the Pink Pony.

Personally Kirk, I like the idea of one course. That said, you are gracious enough to run the action and I will be there either way. Is there any word on CFR discs or other sponsorship opportunities. Also please be sure to keep us posted on the Online Reg. Thanks for all that you do to bring us players a great tournament at a great course.

3 rounds of 18!!!!
My favorite event of the year. Don't tell anyone, but there is word about:
All the ZZ, a couple of Phila boys, a couple of Po'Boys, Maybe a Iowa boy, and a minnysooota guy.

All in the InnoVan

If everyone that wants to play in this event came up with an additional $100 (preferably from a sponsor) the payout would be that much better. One of the issues with this event is that at least half (if not more) of the entry fee goes to the course.



I forgot about sponsorship! I need to hit up my rental company down in Garden City. Where can I get good primer/pep talk on how to appoach companies about sponsoring?

Charge an extra 5$...provide bag lunch. people are in carts, and can eat.
ham and cheese with lettuce tomato, bag chips, drink and banana(all bananas not eaten will be eaten by bobby).
I hate lunch hour anyway because its always lunch hourS.

I gots the Picture of Bobby to prove iTT

I would rather play 18 morning, 9 afternoon. Or, if we are gonna play the short course, lets do it with LIDS. That is what it is made for.

Sonic Round

I think 3 rounds of 18 exec. is the best option for everyone. I hope no one ever complains about payout at this event. It is about a great time on a great course. If anything, I would like awesome fundraisers to lower entry fees. The friZZaks make this drive because of the course, people, and atmosphere.

This fat boy says AMEN to that brotha!!! Shall we start a poll? Or have we convinced Kirk that 3 rounds on the exec. is what the people want.

and because he can man-hyzer a firebird over 400ft!!! :)

I like Harbour View, think its a fun course.

However it does not compare to the executive course.

I still like the 2 rounds of 18 on Saturday on executive and one full round of 27 on Sunday with Tee Times.

I dont know rubber toe....I think most people like to be done early on Sunday. I'm becoming a big fan of that myself. The short course is only fun because you see other groups. Other than that, I see those other groups after the round anyway.

didn't think about time....good call.

I still think the 18 18 on saturday and the 27 on Sunday is the best. Maybe just shotgun all three rounds is the best way to go.

shotgun Sunday = done sooner. OR do it MSDGC style. Shotgun for everyone but the lead 5 groups of Open. They get tee times, allowing the rest of the field some time to finish and watch after they are done.

Tee at 9:30
Group 5 tees at 9:40
Group 4 at 9:50
Group 3 at 10:00
Group 2 at 10:15
Group 1 at 10:30.

That gives everyone some time to build up a gallery for the last few holes.

FUN.

by the way how long is the longest hole on the execuTTive course?

900 feet. I think I may be the only one to 3 it.

Maybe not, but I had a 6 foot drop in last round. Hole 15.

900 feet. I think I may be the only one to 3 it.

Maybe not, but I had a 6 foot drop in last round. Hole 15.

I was there, it was about a 475-500 ft bomb to a basket perched on a mound

talking about hole 4?

Hole 4 may be farther. But it's more strategic, limiting it's eagle-ability. Very few people are going to get far enough on the drive to go for the green on the second shot. plus that basket was moved last year... to a very tough new position.

oh duh, you even said you 3'd 15 in the post.

That is kinda sick.

I went 4 5 4 on it and was happy.

My vote is for 3 rounds on the executive course!

Matt did indeed make hole 15 look like a piece of cake. Maybe I'll be able to par it this year? Can't wait for this one!

Bobby had a 25 footer for 3 on hole 4.

SICK

tee rex, firebird, putter.

Bobby could do that.

I could probably three it with a Stingray second shot... If I could keep my first drive dry...

All about the fun, all about the players, if you want it, most likely team Tupelo can provide. My thought from day one was to provide an event to celebrate the end of the disc golf (and calendar) year. Eat, drink, throw discs, and cruise around in carts. If I could eliminate the formal competition end of things, send everyone home happy, and with a bunch of disc golf goodies that exceeded their entry cost I would be a happy man. Kirk has most graciously stepped up again to TD the event so I personally can Eat, Drink, Throw Discs, and Cruise around in a cart (also I too busy at work right now and wanted to see the event continue). I have agreed to be the host of festivities and will be happy to provide many different events that the PLAYERS want to include. What do you want?

We have been approved to use the Harbour View course if we want but I fully understand if people do not want to drive the 30 minutes to Little River. And the logistics of juggling an additional course (30 min away) adds mucho stress to those who put the event on. In the end the format is up to Kirk. 3 rounds of 18 obviously is the choice of most. Adding the par 3 course has advantages and disadvantages to course flow and scoring. So if people just want to play the REAL deal Tupelo Bay executive course and skip the par 3 thats fine with me. Again its Kirks choice.

Over the last few years the price negoatied with Tupelo Bay was pretty much all-inclusive from Sat. morning until we were done on Sunday. I am fairly confident that will hold true and will allow players to use or play on the par 3 courses as they wish for practice or after rounds. If we wanted, we could most likely hold a distance event on the lighted driving range at night. The putt putt course is typically shut down for this time of year and I not sure what it would take to get the use of that, but I will check.

Anyways, just a few thoughts! Glad to see so many people continue to see the value of this event, and I would encourage anyone who has not attended, to book their disc golf vacation soon! See you at the beach! Thanks again to Kirk Yoo for pulling this together and watch for more details as they are worked out.

Pat Farrell

Thanks for starting a great event Pat.

Just got word from CT... Bard, Bobby, Jeff and Dome are def. coming down! They will be bringing ladies down as well. We can have a serious impact at a restaurant bar or hotel. Maybe someone from MBeach can set up a discounted price on pints or appetizers somewhere. Now I am working on the PA boys, and the PO'boys.

3 rounds of 18 sounds great
no short course
all at the same place
driving comp under the lights sounds great

and if we can get the putt putt course setting up mini baskets could be sweet... or maybe a 'mini' tournament on the short course?

and if we can get the putt putt course setting up mini baskets could be sweet... or maybe a 'mini' tournament on the short course?

Nice, or a 1-3$ entry for a one disc challenge.

Long Drive Contest under the lights and one-disc tournament on the short course for side action. Sounds good to me. I'm still on the campaign trail for 3 rounds of 18 on the executive course.

Has anyone played Harbour View? What's the word on that. If we do end up playing there I'd like to know what I'm up against.

SuperHERO 1 disc Challenge on the short course... right, Captain???

That would be sweet. I would be victorious.

Peckham, those hammer classes are going well!!

Harbour View is fun, 17 par 3's and a tweener.

Here are the scores from the event there in 05

http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournament_results.php?TournID=4974#Open

nice payout.

If -5 is 1000 rated the course must be pretty tough. Is it tight and wooded, or just some tricky placements and lot's of OB?

If -5 is 1000 rated the course must be pretty tough. Is it tight and wooded, or just some tricky placements and lot's of OB?



It's just longer par 3s.

There was some OB and some water, but for the most part, it was mainly wind and distance as the main obstacles.

what type of clash event would be fun to see @ 2-pillow?

just curious since minds are working

The course would be great for doubles with Big Arms.

And I'd like to see the same teams play the golf course (the disc golf course is par 68, the golf course is par 58) in the same format (doubles) and see if any of them could match their raw score.

What about a 3-disc challenge on the executive course. Doubles format with alternate shot. Make a rule that you aren't allowed to use the same disc twice on the same hole.

Bobby had a 25 footer for 3 on hole 4.

but did he make iTT?

Bard had a 25 footer for 2 on 10 and got the same score as me :D

Bard is a rolling freak!

so...is the registration up or what?

wait until we get paid... Oct 5th.

may be a reason to have a killer C tier!






C tier 3 rounds of 18 at Tupelo executive course!!!

Southern National's Championships is a C Tier with lots of money, so could this event.

they def know whats up!!!
i like the idea of TeeTimes for the top 5 cards.

I bet the Captain makes this a B Tier. Its a first class event and the tier should reflect that.

so you're saying Southern Nattys are not 1st class events??

I bet the Captain makes this a B Tier. Its a first class event and the tier should reflect that.



Wrong...The class(quality) of this event is reflected in the players opinions of it, and the player return ratio.

Since this event has always been a B-tier I am going to continue the tradition.

So we know it's a B-tier. Any chance of making it a week long event. I say we play 9 holes every morning and party the rest of the time. Online reg.?

Made the mistake of missing this event last year. Not again. I'm in.

Everyone should play PRO! No discount to play for merch!

I'm in.

I signed up for Open. Hoping for the chance to play with Schweb, Peckham, etc... I enjoy gaining experience playing with the best of the business. I'm not ready to play Open, but I'm tired of everything involved with being an AM. Looking to have fun, that's about it.

Well.......is it full yet?

The Dunes Village Resort has a great special going on right now through Jan 1st on rooms. 2 br. 2 bath full kitchen ocean view for $99. per night. Single rooms with kitchen for as low as $39. Oh yea, they also have 2 indoor water parks. I've stayed here before. This is a nice resort. Just booked the room, bringing the fam. Never played the course but I've heard great things about this tournament.

www.dunesvillageresort.com (http://www.dunesvillageresort.com)

Can I get a true review about The Viking Inn. I'll have my wifey in tow. She's not a princess by any means, but would prefer something better than the flea bag motel.

Wifey + Viking equals trouble. I would bump up a notch.

Kirk,

I am heading down to Garden City tonight and want to talk to some companies about sponsoring. Are there any incentives I can throw at them? ($100 gets you in the program, $500 gets your logo on the disc, $1000 makes you presenting sponsor, etc.)

Also, does anyone have any tips on approaching sponsors or information that I can present to them? I really want to try and impress them and get us some money.

Jay

Thanks for the info Peckham. I figured as much. It's hard to pass up on a room that has 2 sperate bedrooms and a full kitchen for only $34 crispy bones. I will have to ride home with her though.

Full Kitchen... more like a bathroom foyer.

And watch out for Holes in the wall... and fridge.

To steep for me. Looks like a nice place though. Anybody know of some other places close to the course. Something cheaper than this, but better than the Viking?

something cheaper than $39/night but nicer than the viking?!

Viking is $5 extra for a seaside view. Gotta add that into the price. It's worth it.

I didn't read his entire post. I only saw the $99/night. I guess I'll be looking into it. Any idea how far it is from the course?

The resort is around 52nd ave. I'm not sure where the course is. I received the offer on the room by email and booked it that way for 99 per night 2br 4qu. I get special offers all the time from them. If you go directly to there website, you will not get the discounted rate. However, you can try calling. If anyone is interested, send me an email and i'll email you back the offer. I just did the same for my brother and it worked for him. [email protected]

If we fill the field The Tupelo Bay Golf Center will donate an additional $1,100 to the purse.

We will have Champion Boss discs available soon with a very cool stamp designed by KH.

Thanks for getting the info up Kirk.

1 round of 36 on Saturday? We aren't breaking it up into two rounds?

This thing needs to fill!

In order for us to get 2 rounds in before dark we decided that we would play 1 round of 36 with no "formal" break.

However, you will (as a group) be allowed to take an informal break at the club house. You will be able to do this as you reach either holes 1 or 10 depending on what the entire group agrees to doing. You are encouraged to buy lunch from the club house. They are supposed to have the grill going.

Because you will be allowed to take an informal break groups will be allowed to play through. Please keep in mind that if you do take a break you will need to keep it as short as possible so that you do not hold up the entire field at the end of the day.

You will also be allowed to have beer while you are on your break. Beer will be limited to the club house and patio area only. Beer will not be allowed on the course or in your cart at any time. If you are seen with any alcohol on the course or in your cart you will be immediately DQ'ed. Please do not be the first person to be disqualified by me.

Kirk

How are you going to fit 96 players onto 18 holes on Saturday. Are we going to have some six-somes? I think that may actually work with the informal berak, but I wasn't sure if that was your intent.

The only way we will have six somes is if there is an odd number of groups.

I doubt it will be an issue as this event has never come close to filling. The average number of entries for this event has been 62.

If it does fill you can rest assured that I have a plan.

Sunday's round is a 27 hole course not 18 holes. the executive 18 and the par 3, 9 holer

Dave,

Sunday is no problem, especially with the top pros teeing off later. I was only curious about Saturday.

If we fill the field I will have a plan in place to handle the additional groups.

Please, please, please make me use the plan....lol

Fill the field!!!

Kirk,

My wife is tagging along this year. Will she be allowed to ride with me in the cart? I wasn't sure if there would be enough of them. Thanks.

sanctioned?

Kirk,

My wife is tagging along this year. Will she be allowed to ride with me in the cart? I wasn't sure if there would be enough of them. Thanks.



Each group is assigned 2 carts, so a foursome has 2 carts (2 seaters, no seats on the back), If we have 5 somes I would assume 3 carts to that group, so in that case your wife would be able to ride, in a foursome not really. Last year they did have extra carts available for a nominal fee.

I'm sorry I haven't kept up with the questions out here.

Jay,

If the field fills there will be no additional carts for spectators. If we don't fill the field any carts not assigned to groups will be available for rental from the Pro Shop.

Not that I don't want your wife there but I am hoping we fill the field.

Sjur,

Yes this is a PDGA sanctioned event. It will be a B-tier. I am awaiting an answer from the SC State Coordinator but I believe at this point it is just a formality as there are no conflicting events that I am aware of at this time.

Everyone else,

We are working very hard to get a film crew there to produce another Clash video. If anyone knows of any company that would be willing to sponsor and be advertised on the video please let me know. We are looking for 4 companies to sponsor $250 each. If we can get these sponsors at least one week before the event we will have another Clash video filmed at the Tupelo Golf Center.

Kirk
captain (at) mindspring (dot) com

Clash at Tupelo. The Right, The Left, and the Fairway.

One Righty and one Lefty per team. We need lefties represented!

That is up to the producers of the Clash video.

Also, unless we can get sponsorship funding the video won't even happen.

90+% of the world is right handed. Conform!

Tupelo has been given the green light by the SC State Coordinator.

believe the tuck brothers gonna make it. bumpin from intermediate to advanced to join the party.

Drew,

You won't regret making the jump. This is (in my opinion) the best conversion course (ball golf to disc golf) out there.

Kirk

2nd

That is up to the producers of the Clash video.

Also, unless we can get sponsorship funding the video won't even happen.

This is incorrect, there will be a Clash regardless. This was just a misunderstanding between Billy and Kirk. There is no sponsorship opportunity for this Clash Video.

There is sponsorship opportunity for internet coverage of the Tupelo Bay event.......just like the US dubbs coverage that was posted on [email protected]

I'm sorry for the confusion about the video.

Kirk, thanks for pulling the event together! Confused or not the 2008 Tupelo Bay Open owes its current existence to you! Your time and effort are most appreciated!

Anything involved with the Clash DVD and related exposure is a great way for sponsors to get their name into the disc golf market. Just got off the phone with Mr. Crump and I�m excited to see the Clash Family make their way to the Tupelo Bay Open. The Clash DVD series / website coverage are cutting edge disc golf promotion and a proud representation of the game. The additional coverage that Billy and his Team would like to provide for the event is the play by play action of the event itself. As I understand it, the actual Clash video will be shot in the days before the actual TBO. BUT the added coverage (which could be sponsored by you or your company) would be marketed as an internet coverage / sponsorship deal. Throw down $250 bucks and get you company onboard or lay down the entire $1000 and cover the project yourself. Lay down $1000-$5000 and you can pretty much own the marketing plan.

Any suggestions to course design changes are welcome. The course has always played golf putting greens out of bounds and sand traps in bounds. All cart paths, path and beyond, or 3 fairways over is still in bounds unless determined unplayable. Only 2 holes have o.b. due to the fact that they either play towards an offsite development or thick swamp area. Got an idea you think would be better? Let�s hear it?

When I designed this course I wanted to create a course that people would find fun to play and could be creative to find a shot that works for their game.
Peckham was the 1st person (lefty) who I saw throw hole #7 tee shot across the lake to the #4 fairway for the backdoor route. Nice!
Anyways I�m sure I will come up with a few more tweaks for the 2008 event. I hope to be setting the course up on the Tuesday before (12/9) and ready to play the back nine under the lights Tuesday night.
Ohio, Oregon, and then Surfside, SC in the coming weeks. It�s on!!!!!

thanks cap.

this is Bard.

we are trying to come down/

The only hole I think might be better is 16 on the right side of the green near the woods. but that's more of a lefty shot. It's a little boring in it's current position.

does anyone have any pictures of the course from previous years?

I think there were some pictures on last years thread. I'm to lazy to scroll back and find them though. Just sign up, you won't regret it. The course is awesome and beautiful. Especially the half naked caddies the El Capitan has lined up.

I was half naked swimming in one of those ponds at 10 PM Friday night retrieving a disc for Tripp Cole last year. But I am definitely not worth looking at naked or fully clothed.

HA!

We have not posted the prereg list yet for a couple of reasons. The tournament listing site is not working properly and we only have 15 players preregistered.

I know there are a lot more than 15 players that want to play this event.

Please, please, please preregister. It makes my job a lot easier if you do. Also, if this event fills we will actually have more sponsorship money added to the purse. Tupelo Bay has committed additional funds to us if we fill the field.

Kirk

bump again

My check is headed out this weekend and there should be 6 more after that wooooooooohhhhhhhhooooooooooo
