Put this event on your calendar! This is one of the best events in the Midwest!

2010 Glass Blown Open Promo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEKOYmEBmes)

Online Registration (http://www.dynamicdiscs.com/registrationGB.html)

GBO Website (http://www.GlassBlownOpen.com)

Biggest and BEST A Tier you will ever attend. I guarantee it!

Planning out making this one
D/D holds a great event!

Lots of MPO and MPM players getting signed up in advance for this event! We will be limiting the MPO/MPM/FPO field to 90 players so don't miss out on your chance to qualify for the USDGC at this event! The reason the field will be limited to 90 so that everyone can qualify for the USDGC and play the same courses.

Yo this is Keith, save me a spot i should be able to drive over and hang with u guys for this one.

I was the 83 to sign up last night. GBO is filling up quickly.

A steady stream of registrations indeed! Several a day which begins to add up in a hurry. I have a feeling that this event will fill way in advance for the A Pool (MPO, MPM, FPO) and several touring pros or will be left out of the largest pro purse ever for the GBO. FYI the pro purse is estimated to be well over $10,000. Up to this point the pre-registration list has been updated constantly. If I'm not able to keep the list up to date over the better part of a week this event might fill up unexpectedly for the A-pool. Do yourself a favor....if you want to play in this event get signed up today before you risk missing out on one of the best events in the Midwest! Thanks for all of those who have made the commitment and signed up!

Keith! Get signed up! Exceptions are not being made for this events registration.

Ok Keith will be coming across from Colorado Springs, is any one else driving over and or wanting to room together ???

Hey Rusco -I will sign up tomorrow mornning. If you can hold a spot, that would be cool.

Looks like theres a good group coming from Colorado? SO if any of U guys want to email me at kvdiscpro@hotmail.com
or PM me I would love to arrange car-pool plans and or hotle plans for weekend!

116 players signed up so far! Everything is shaping up to make this the best GBO yet! If you haven't checked out the website lately make sure that you do so.

www.glassblownopen.com

Each pool is limited to 90 players.

A Pool - MPO, MPM, FPO, (MPG, MPS)

B Pool - MA1, MM1, FW1

C Pool - MG1, MA2, MA3, FW2, FW3


Courses
East Course(A)
West Course(B)
Peter Pan(C)

Round 1 A B C

Round 2 C A B

Round 3 B C A

Round 4 A B C


Pool assignments are subject to change. MPO, MPM, and FPO will not move out of A pool. MPO, MPM, and FPO field is limited to 90 players. The amateur women are likely to be grouped together.

Looks like a great turn out and will be a fun competeive USDGC qualifier!
How many courses are we playing? and all 18 hole? 2 a day?

Read the post just above yours?

Looking forward to my first DD event! Thanks, Rusco and crew!

What are the Tourny Stamped Disc for the event? CFR?

You name it, and it will probably be a tourney stamp. There will be all kinds of Innova CFR, and tons of Discraft plastic.

Smitty do you have a twin brother in colorado springs? maybe ya'll were split up at birth, there is a guy here in the springs that looks like you, sounds like you and throws discraft (not as good as you) but he throws discraft.....

Smitty do you have a twin brother in colorado springs? maybe ya'll were split up at birth, there is a guy here in the springs that looks like you, sounds like you

That poor dude! I feel sorry for him!

well, i wasnt gonna say that...but seriously its scary, when he talks i keep looking for you...its weird...i think ya'll were seperated at birth and dont know it. Im going to trick him into coming to GBO and re-united you 2 long lost brothers.

Man this thing is blowing up! More entries coming in every single day. There are going to be some limitations put on the #'s in each pool. If you are on the fence about playing this one, you getter jump off and sign-up today.

whats the most the Tourny can handle (numbers) ? Whats the best turn out so far?

270 will be full.

The most we have had in the past was around 180.

Best tourney last year, hands Down!!! GBO

Cant wait. Only a little over a month away.

wow it can handle 270...wow

sweet 199 signed up should be good. Looks like record sign up..
whats the most of any GBO so far..

The most we have had in the past was around 180.

this is gonna be sweet, can't wait.

wow 230 players so far and still a month to go, Way to Go Dynamic Disc.

It is more like 235. I talkd to at least 5 people yesterday that either sent the entry using snail mail or used on-
line yesterday.


DD is going to make this a disc golf experience people will talk about for a long time.

240+ players already signed up! The A Pool is filled up and has a waiting list! I am projecting that the B and C Pools will fill up by next weekend with how fast registrations are coming in.

This event might even be worth coming to just to spectate and/or compete in the putting and distance competitions as well as doubles on Friday. We could always use some extra help with spotting so if you are interested in this let me know.

sweet, sounds like friday will be fun.....

Move over Bowling Green, there's a new spring tournament in town.

240+ players already signed up! The A Pool is filled up and has a waiting list! I am projecting that the B and C Pools will fill up by next weekend with how fast registrations are coming in. .

And one day later....We're full!

Hope you guys got signed up, the players pack is going to be awesome!

Dynamic Discs has been planning on this thing all winter, it's going to be the best Double D event by far.

See ya there,Cant wait.:D

wow thats saying alot, Cause DD and Jeremy have been the best events I have played so saying that this will be his best of best, WOW I sure hope nobody is missing this one.

Is there still room for AMS and JRs or is it all now full?

Is there still room for AMS and JRs or is it all now full?

268 this morning 3 courses. Not sure of DD thinking but I definitely see the numbers.

Peace

well so far thats 4.9 people per card on all 3 courses full.....

Wow, I am so disapointed! Had to wait to get paid, 1 day too late! This was going to be the closest A tier to me and it is 4 1/2 hours away! I was hoping to let my son experiance a really big one this year. Next year.

268 this morning 3 courses. Not sure of DD thinking but I definitely see the numbers.

Peace

90 Per course, three courses, 270 people.

Just because the REG list isn't updated doesn't mean the other two spots are left.

Nice try though ;)

any way we can see maps or lay outs of 3 courses? what are the courses?

It is being worked on at this time.

Adam has been a busy with a few other adventures including a trip to AZ.

Crack the whip Rusco!

any way we can see maps or lay outs of 3 courses? what are the courses?
I went to glassblownopen.com and found the course names and then went to discgolfcoursereview.com and got a feel for what's up. Jones park East and West and Peter Pan. first time to kansas so I have no idea what to expect, other than a GREAT TIME!!!!

I still have a root of bitterness because I was a day late in getting in this year!

I still have a root of bitterness because I was a day late in getting in this year!

Pre-registration has been open for months and there have been many posts about where the fields are in terms of pre-registration.........

I know that. Could not afford it. I was going to have it but a day too late. Just was not ment to be. Hey, I am not complaining. Just disapointed that I was not able to pull it off is all.

We are looking for spotters. If you want to be part of the experience, and score some DD goodies let myself or Jeremy know.

We were down there last weekend and played all 3 courses. Are they close to setup in the GBO layouts?

They will be setup by this Friday. DD will be running a 1 day B-tier at Peter Pan. We know people will want to play all the courses while they are in Emporia.

I dont know the current setup.

Move over Bowling Green, there's a new spring tournament in town.

Not quite. We cater to the AM's, not the Pro's.

Nonetheless, I would love to hit the GBO. It sounds like a great tourney!

The goal isn't to out do Bowling Green. The idea is to host a kick butt event that is going to make 270 people (pro and Am) very happy.

I know, that's why I'm not missing it next year. I'd love to have one of those kick *** trophies, but I'm years from that level. Hopefully you guys will have better weather then what we have had in the past.

Good luck!

so whats the player pack looking like? I heard its cool?
way to go DD, thanks for caring about the players so much.
I predict DD will be biggest TD in States soon. Hes gettin such
a good rep and feedback form all players I meet.

Want to be part of the Glass Blown Open, but didn't get in. Here is your chance. Dynamic Discs will be hosting a 1 day C-tier at the Emporia Middle School. The normally short and easy course will be adjusted to give even the best pros a challenge. The tourney layout will include an elevated basket, an island green, a clowns mouth, and several OB lined fairways.

The event should play much faster then the Glass Blown Open, given everyone the opportunity to watch some of the top players in the world finish their round. Dynamic Discs also invites you to take part in all the extra things that are going to make the GBO the best tourney in the midwest. After you are finished at the middle school, head over to Jones park and try to qualify for the putting finals or the long drive championships.

Last minute sign-ups: 7:30-8:15
Player Meeting: 8:30
First Round: 9:00

Cost:
All Pro divisions $50
All Advanced divisions $40
All other divisions available at $30.

If you are not a PDGA member you will need to pay the $10 non-member fee.
$3 Ace fund is included with the entry fee.

All participants will receive a 2010 Glass Blown Open dri-fit shirt. Also included in the fees, entry to and food at the "Insane Players Party" on Saturday night.

Dynamic Discs will also have Merchandise Voucher opportunities for people who want to help spot and do other tourney jobs on Sunday.

SO this 1 day c tier will be same weekend, you didnt specify dates???
thats a great Idea DD, more Proof of the great TD's you guys are always thinking about the players. thanks.
See ya in KS

Yes the 1-day C-tier is on April 17th, the Saturday of the Glass Blown. It's another option for those who missed registration for Glass Blown, but still want to be part of the event. They can enter all the extra events, and be part of the players party, just won't be part of the A-tier or B-tier two day event at Jones and Peter.

see ya'll at GBO

Question A pool places the East course twice? Yes
what will the final 9 be ? What course?

All information regarding the schedule can be found at www.glassblownopen.com.

As far as the final 9 it is a mix of holes from both east and west, plus a few safari type holes.

so what is the character of these courses? Big arms distance, tight and Techinical,
what A game do I need to excel? Mid range upshots, technical through the trees?
just wondering as I ll be coming to play Blind. seeing the course for the 1st when I get there.

Any heads up ???

So Smitty...Champion Vipers???

You gotta be kiddin' me. I spent 25 minutes writing up a post about the courses, and I get disconnected from the internet and lose my post.

Lets just say this, you don't need a lot of distance, but some helps. They are only a handful of tight and technical courses in Kansas, but alas not in Emporia. Mostly open, but a good use of obstacles to make the courses play fair and interesting. Emporia has some of the top courses in Kansas.

ok so expect Windy, open holes. Where Disatnce isnt a probelm but be accurate off of Tee to get up for Putts??? and bring overstable stuff??
sorry about the PC thing dude.

Course records scores for each course we are playing???

sorry about the PC thing dude.

It was a linksys thing. I'm a Mac. :)

I don't know the records, but I know Jones west has be scored in the low 40's a couple times. Around a 42. I think most are happy in the high 40's though. Jones East if you get below 50 thats amazing, (I believe 54 is pretty good here) Peter Pan I don't really see too many scores below 50 either. I just looked at some past tournament scores. Seems like the norm for winners at Peter pan is only a few down for the tournament.

Singles-

Jones East A - 43 - Eric
Jones East B - 46 - Eric
Jones West A - 40 - Eric 6/2/06
Jones West B - 41 - Eric 10/9/07
Peter Pan - 43 - Jake 7/25/07
Da ***** -

Doubles-

Jones East A - 41 - Eric/Leo 8/17/06
Jones East B - 41 - Eric/Dustin 6/22/06
Jones West A - 40 -Eric/Dustin 6/23/06
Jones West B - 41 - Robert/Kevin 5/18/05
Jones West B - 41 - Eric cali 10/16/05
Peter Pan - 41 - Eric cali 4/9/06
Da ***** - 53 - Eric/Muoio 7/6/06


The reason the Peter could look like a few down, is that it is normally 20 holes during tourney play.

Brad make sure you get on the shuttle :eek:

Had a few name changes on the registration list.

Noticed we now have a former World Champ on the list .

Dean in the House!

Where course will the DD dubs be on?

whats the link to see the scedule for Friday and Sat and sunday. I didnt find the scedule on the GBO website.

Tanner-

All the action Friday will go down in Jones park. Most likely the East Course.


Kieth-

Try these links. Both were easy to find on the GBO website. But it is always easier to just ask. :)

http://www.glassblownopen.com/Glass_Blown_Open/Courses.html

Thanks Smitty. Looking forward to seeing what all the hype is about :)

so they are calling for Thunder Storms for the weekend. It seems its moved to just friday. How does the course handle rain and water? Will teepads be messY.?
Will cleats be needed? if the rain hammers the course?
thanks

The courses have the potential to be muddy if it rains. Unlike Texas courses they will not be an absolute mess.

As far as cleats, you will be teeing off Cement on every hole the entire tourney. If you think cleats are going to give you an advantage, then bring them.

Most of the course except for the lowest of spots will drain and be soggy at most.

"Unlike Texas courses they will not be an absolute mess" Hey watch it

yeh...but he has a point. Tx is clay mudd and gets sloppy...
So with concrete Tees and a good draining course, we should be cool with normal grip

"Unlike Texas courses they will not be an absolute mess" Hey watch it


Worst footing I ever played in, San Saba am world doubles.

Muddiest course I ever played, Cedar Hill.

Most dangerous course I have ever played, Cliff Drive. I would hate to see that thing damp at all.

muddiest Cedar Hill, yeh that can be bad, but thats nothing compared to a South Tx, Houston, Beaumont course in the Mudd, cleats are worse becuase you end up dragging about 10lbs of clay mudd with you....

well I hope the weather blows over and gives us a pretty and sunny weekend....

Headin out of IL in the morning, couldn't wait any longer. I'm excited for my first GBO/DD event.

Thanks to DD and Emporia for hosting this weekend.

Had a few name changes on the registration list.

Noticed we now have a former World Champ on the list .

You must be psychic! You knew I was going to get in even before I did.

You did mean me, didn't you?

I'm not sure who dropped out, but I'm awful glad to be dropping in.

The big question is- "Can this former World Champ avoid DFL?"

Sure would be nice if we could get permission to do a little pyrotechnic show at the players party...

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!

Of course I was talking about you. Champ.

Congrats on getting in.

I think the weather is looking pretty good for the weekend. As of now, they're calling for partly cloudy in the high 60's. (Rain Friday though) Should be beautiful golfing weather.

I think I know of at least INT player that's going to drop.

do you think alot of Open guys are gonna play Dub's on Friday???

Any Open guys not already paired up yet???

Looking for a mixed Doubles team to play with.Myself and Miranda Fulton can play at about 5 .

There are usually a handful of doubles teams. It's a fun way to see the course and get some practice in.

Smitty and I will be headed up tomorrow morning. Hope to see you there!

Thank you DD Crew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


What a weekend, fantastic!!!!!!!!

I was totally impressed by the job Jeremy and his crew did this weekend. Those courses are great, wish I could play them again today!!

Everything was marked, mowed and looking great.

Congrats to all the winners.

What are the results from the skins match??

What are the results from the skins match??

Nikko and Adam Hunt won 5 skins at $50 a hole.

Eric McCabe and Dwayne Furr 3 skins at $50 and the final hole for $100.

WOW! What an EVENT!

Rusco and the whole DD crew did a fantastic job, and made it look easy. The courses were in good shape, the weather was perfect and I had a great time playing with some good golfers from OK and TX.

Congrats to EMac, Yeti and all the winners.

Looking forward to next year.

Nice Shooting Jay & EMac!

wow great Job Jeremy, Smitty , Emac and all the Voluneers. WOW the courses were amazing, OB strung on every hole, every basket for 3 courses were painted with putting circles so you knew where to jump putt. The work that the DD crew puts into events is awesome. I vote DD for best TD in america. These guys are setting the standard for how A tiers and premeir events should be run. Anybody wanting to be a part of the top progression of our tournys should be at DD events and or any TD wanting to become great show up and volunteer and see how the Best are running events. Way to go DD !!! great weekend.
Congrats EMac and Yetti

man Now I see why Eric is so good. If you lived in Emporia and had those 3 courses as home course...you game can certainly improve...lol. Those 3 combinations of courses are freakin awesome.

If you like 3, you'll love 4. (http://www.pdga.com/event?TournID=9773)

Heck of an event.

kvdiscpro- The circles were nice, but most of them were only about 30 ft. You probably shouldn't have been jump putting from them.

I agree, DM has the best set of 4-5 courses that I have ever been seen. The man up stairs willing, I will be there next month.

On the other hand JR and DD crew keeps out doing themselves every year. It was total fun and non stressful. JR and the DD crew does put on some of the best tournys in the region.
Thanks to all personel that made 2010 GBO a hugh success. See you all back in Emporia KS in 2011.

Peace,
