3 Weeks and it is on baby. Field limited to 96 players. I anticipate this tourney will fill. I will turn people away if I have to :( It will again be 3 rounds of 24 as to get out of towners home early. The payout as usual will be worthy of your presence $$$.They don't call it Big Bucks on the Brazos for nothing. Hope to see all soon.

Ams/Int/Jrs will play from short tee pads...7,864ft. FEAR THE DRIVE!!! Doubles Friday flex tee times 3-5p.m. Who will be the 08 Big Arms Champ?

Who won?

Emac got in on the last hole! Congrats man!

The weather was generally wet (mostly just very light drizzle to keep discs wet and pads dangerous) and windy especially for rounds 2 & 3.

Results as I remember them...
Emac wins by one over Marcace. Marcus had a two stroke lead at 16 of 21 (Emac missed a short put on 17). Marcus returns the favor on hole 16. At hole 19, at about 35' Marcus puts a shoots through, drops out. Emac hits a 20'er. It's a tie game. Hole 20, both are parked, but TD pressures get to Marcus and he misses a short put. Now Emac has a stroke lead. Hole 21 is up and over a short hill, then beyond some trees....a very tough two. Emac's drive is good as it slides under the trees and near the basket at about 15'. Marcus is 45' out and hits his put into a high flowing uphill wind. Emac 'drops' in for the win....and $1,100 (I think)...followed by Marcus, Jesse Mendez (Lubbock), and then a tie: Jay Reading and Bo Neill (Lubbock).

Advanced - Chris Brooks (Big Spring) won by one over Carl Wamsley (San Angelo)on the last hole (I think). Adv Masters - The old man Brooks, Greg Brooks, came from the second card and stole the win from Fank White (Amarillo), Vicente Trujillo (Lubbock), and Rocky Lawless (Levelland). Liz Lopez played singlely and took pro women. Julie ? similarly took rec women. Int was won by Ben Solis(Lubbock). Rec was won by ?. Jr's won by Braxton (Portales, NM). Check out the tour info for better scores, etc. when it comes back up.

Its was Julie Mosley...who graciously carded with the 2 Jr. players. Thanks to you Juile. Rec winner was Jose Barron from Lubbock.

Turnout was rather small...49 total. The good side to that was that we had mostly 3 man cards...so we got through the monster course in about 2 1/2 hours each round.

It should also be noted that the payout was right in line with past Big Arms tournaments. 13 Open player....6 spots paid...1st was $1,100...6th was $236. Over $2,000 added just to Open (think it was actually $2,500) Another $1,000 added to Ams. How many tournaments do you know where the Advanced winner gets $303 in merch with only 9 players in the div? :eek:

Thanks Marcus and staff for another fine event. Depending on how long it takes to get the PDGA site moved we might not see round ratings until the next update, but I will get the scores up as soon as I can.

Heres the UNOFFICIAL ratings using the Local ratings calculator from the old PDGA.com. Pro and Advanced played from the Blue Tees, Everyone else from the White Tees. Everyone played the long pin placements. There were 2 extra holes between #2 and #3 and an extra hole between #4 and #5. 24 holes total. The conditions were rain, wind.....then rain and wind. Actually not as bad as it could have been....but not ideal either.

Not sure how close the calculation will be to the current ratings calculations...but it will give everyone an idea of how they played. Again, the PHAT payout should be noted :-)
