Great players pack. Many items in the players pack. One major item in the players pack is not your typical players pack product but something very cool with a great logo.

25 of those discs that you aren't suppose to be able to find... came in. CFR Champion GAZELLES - weights range from 162 to 152 - Clear Pearl, Blue, Organge and Pink...
Ladies, looking for some light weight but stable plastic?
Guys, want to buy a light weight quality disc for the girlfriend? How about a 152g Pink Champion Gazelle? $20.00 shipped with CFR Certificate.
Love the way a DX Gazelle flys but want one that doesn't beat in too quick? Try a Champion 10g lighter...
I will be PMing those who got in line first with their weight and color options. Once I get thru those folks, I will post the available color/weight combos.
Thank you all who pm'd in advance.

Baskets were moved today... Lincoln OB's marked.
The OB's and obstacles/islands/hay bails at Douglas are a work in progress, but have been started.
Playing during the week... Machine is probably your best bet. Smurphy can probably get a hold of Machine for you... just send a private message to Smurphy and he can hook you up with a local player...

Before i hit the hay after 16+ hours of working, i want to post the following..
Thank you to Brad Dow and Kent Schafer for being the Tournament Directors of this event
Mad Props to Jim Trotter and Jason Thomas for dealing with Merchandise.
Even more Kudos for Kim Dow as she dealt with the majority of registration.
to Machine, Viva, Ziggy, Lefty, and Smurf - legwork indeed.
Last but not least - the Springfield Park District. This event would not have been a reality without them.

CTP's were handed out to each GROUP. literally a 1 in 3 or 4 shot. 33% or 25% chance of winning a disc, whoo! Bunches of discs were unloaded.
Rec division..
Where else can you get a $10 water bottle, a $10 t-shirt if you pre-reg, a player's pack with various items, a chance to win a ctp from your group (1 in 3 shot for a disc), free drawings for prizes and participating in a side competition for only $12?
As a result for pricing it that low to have a good time, we did not offer any prizes outside of trophy disc for 1st for the Rec Division.
Congrats to Hermosillo (http://www.pdga.com/tournament/playerstats.php?PDGANum=25345) for his first PDGA PRO WIN of the year!
On a side note - Curiousity from a designer's point of view - How did the Douglas layout work out for the Pros/ADV division?
If you have any suggestions or feedback - I welcome it so there's room for improvement !!
I have received the following so far..
1) Temp Laminated teesigns to cover original # at douglas to eliminate confusion from "adding a # to figure out what hole you are on" for the REC/INT division.
2) Split course - have pre-reg at the course where play 1st rd to reduce the REC/INT travel.
GL to all who are going to Bloomington-Normal Tourney tmw. I wish i could make it!
