UC has a new layout. We have moved seven holes from the front of the park to the new land in the back along Cibolo Creek. Doubles will be at UC this year so that everyone gets a chance to preview the new holes.

At Live Oak we will combine <st1>Lake</st1> and City Hall courses into one layout:
15, 16, 17*, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23*, 23A, 23B, 23C, 23D, 24*, 25*, 26, 27, 28
*Recreational and Intermediate divisions will play short tees on these holes.
<o></o>
This is temporary for this year only. There are several reasons for this change:
It will improve the flow of play by eliminating long walks between holes.
It will be easier to get drinking water out on the courses.
It will not require any temporary holes or portable baskets.

We anticipate that by next year the reconfiguration of Live Oak will be complete, and we can return to the Lake/City Hall format. We may even have a third course in place by then (Lakeview College), but that is not certain at this point.

The schedule is (subject to change):

Saturday AM - Adv/Open at Live Oak, Int/Rec at UC
Saturday PM - Int/Rec at Live Oak, Adv/Open at UC

Sunday AM - Int/Rec at Live Oak, Adv/Open at UC
Sunday PM - Adv/Open at Live Oak, Int/Rec at UC

Thanks for the update Brian! Looking forward to LOSO!

Hope I can make it again this year, last year was a fun tourney.

Oh joy. More righty holes in the woods.

(I kid, I kid.)

so where is HQ gonna be at UC? and suggested parking? i doubt we'll all fit at hole 1.

and... players meeting?? at live oak then drive to uc for tee-off? or seperate meetings?

Oh joy. More righty holes in the woods.

(I kid, I kid.)

Although you are kidding that is exactly what they are. They fit in nicely with the rest of the course and make it slightly harder. Instead of making hay on easy open short holes you will need to be hitting your lines. Also there won't be a need for the "Bender Rule" on old hole 14 as that tee box has been moved to the other side of the creek.

so where is HQ gonna be at UC? and suggested parking? i doubt we'll all fit at hole 1.

and... players meeting?? at live oak then drive to uc for tee-off? or seperate meetings?

UC HQ will be at hole #1 (Old #5) near the back parking lot.

Only one players meeting, at Live Oak HQ (on Shin Oak next to pool.) then it's off to UC for Rec and Intermediate round 1. You will have enough time to get to your holes.

UC Parking will be in back parking lot with overflow in street and across the street at Red Horse park. We encourage everyone to carpool as much as possible.

Looking forward to this event. Representing 4 The Chains Disc Golf!!

You guys out there in Live Oak and San Antonio make it out to my next event, The Rivery Park Pro-Am Summer Meltdown in Georgetown TX. Check it out at www.TitleDISC.com.

All amateur players will recieve

Tournament Shirt with Fly-Ink stamp
LOSO Koozie
and a ZING Mini

Typically the retail value of these items up to $15 is taken out of Am payout before the payout is calculated.

Well, we are changing that.

Shirts...paid for by sponsorship
Koozies...paid for by sponsorship
ZING Minis...still looking for sponsor, but I think we will find one.

I should add that these sponsorships are not taking anything away from the added cash for pro players. They were donated specifically to cover these items. So there will be very little or nothing taken from the payout.

By the way, STAFF will receive the same package, plus some more goodies, and we still need some staff, so hit me up if you can help out.

you have a p.m.

Is there a players list posted anywhere?

Entries trickling in at a snails pace. Will get something up in a few more days.

Got you Benders...Tony you owe $10 cuz you accidently put Intermediate. :eek::D

<---------- Might not make it.....oh and I'm not talking about Olse

Sorry to hear, Matt. Maybe it will work out!!

Is this really less than 2 weeks away? OH YEAH!

Matt - I thought you where going to be the first event 3 time LOSO champ? You could help pay for Wolrds with a win at LOSO :)

Worlds...LOL!

I need to pay for Vibram and just got in a stash of new discs to sell and believe me I would rather be at LOSO than a wedding, especially when I haven't played in a month.

I will find a way to make it.....even if some people get ****** because of it.

I promise to have a players list up soon, as soon as I get an update from Twisted Flyer.

Please remember, there is no registration Saturday morning. You must be paid by 7pm Friday night. Once paid, you can check in Friday afternoon or Saturday morning, your choice.

We do this so that we can make hole assignments Friday night instead of Saturday morning. That gets everyone out on the courses sooner, which is important because of the afternoon heat.

For more specifics on check in times and locations, visit www.lodga.com/loso_faq.htm (http://www.lodga.com/loso_faq.htm).

What's the verdict on the concrete on holes 15 & 16? Will they be OB?

Also what time will you begin taking signups on Saturday? (JK)

Before I sign up, I need one question answered: will Pellman be wearing one of those nasty OU caps? :)

He says likely. I say there's nothing worse than a nasty OU cap. Unless it's a nasty t.u. cap. :D

It was just brought to my attention that the flyer says Doubles will be at Live Oak. That is not correct. Doubles will be at Universal City.

I apologize for the mistake.

Sign up for doubles at UC Hole 1 (Old #5 - back parking lot off Cibolo Trail) flex start between 3 - 5 PM.

Laura.....you have a PM.

5 is a little early to end it isn't it? Most of us get off work at that time and usually have to haul *** to get to the mini by 6 (at least I do). Is there any way we can extend it to 6? Hopefully Corey won't mind!

Agreed! I know they don't want to be out too late but 5pm is a good cutoff in winter but not when it is light until 9.

Either way we should be rolling up around 2pm and I am anxiously waiting.

I will have an answer on that tonight. Should not be a problem.

I'm down for some Kan Jam.. the sample of the raffel dosen't do justice to what's in there. There's more from Acadamy, how about Mercedes-Benz, I believe something from the Jack Daniels collection should be in the house, etc...Raffel is about as hot as the weather, start hydrate today players, seriously. We will have awesome cooling stations on the course thanks to Acdamy and Poweraide! Don't forget your socks for free raffel tickets. We will going to Biff buzby's burgers and beer after rounds on Saturday night. Real close to the course, hope to see you there for dinner before y'all tuck in for the night.

I've got a box I'm sending to Baby tomorrow! Wish I could be there, but Las Vegas calls. :D

Thanks Brian!!

Wouldn't it be cool if all the Masters decided to play up and make a much larger divisions in MPO? When you look at the ratings (excluding 1-2 players) it is very evenly matched and if Vinnie or Joel play Masters the rest of the guys might at well play MPO.

That would be cool but probably won't happen. Where are all the Open Players? We should have at least double that on the players list. C'mon people!!!:D

Flex Start Doubles will be 3pm - 6pm. Sign up at UC #1.

Seriously the best burgers. Make sure you get the JC bun! Also I think on Firdays or Saturdays they have a classic cars there.

FYI-Online signups through twistedflyer.com will close Wednesday night.

Just wondering why there are a couple players playing in divisions below their allowed rating?

Frosty, come play MA1 with us! :)

Is there any way I can get on the players list and pay the morning of? My wallet was stolen and I had to cancel all my accounts. This tourney sounds like to much fun to miss.

Super_D you have a PM.

I have a feeling he will be moving up. ;)

Looking for somewhere to stay Saturday night so i dont have to drive all the way back to georgetown.. Let me know..

i'm really enjoying seeing all the women on the players list!! (IN THE LEAST PERVERTED WAY)

Player's List is looking nice! Shaping up to be the best LOSO I've attended. Great job LODGA!

Just FYI...we are sitting at 60 Open and Advanced Players. The cap is 72, so that means only 12 spots left. After that, entries will go onto a wait list on a first come, first served basis.

Plenty of room in Recreational and Intermediate flight.

Today is the last day for online entries www.twistedflyer.com (http://www.twistedflyer.com) so get 'em in!!

You read it here first...they're raffling off one of these.

I just had to sample one of the "Ssssss......Wheat Summer Ale" I brewed for LOSO. I don't want to get too carried away but......It's **** Good!!!! I hope I win some in the raffle.;):D

Pro/Adv divisions sitting at 70. 2 spots left. Still need an Advanced Grandmaster or two!!

Int/Rec at 46, plenty of room there.

We are getting a break weather-wise, with a couple of cloudy days here right before the weekend. But the fact is that it will still be very hot and everyone needs to take hydration seriously. We will have plenty of water out on the course, but you also need to bring your own.

A trip to the E.R. has a way of ruining your tournament. Start drinking water or Powerade today, and keep it up through Sunday! Potassium pills or bananas might not be a bad idea either.

are the maps for both courses?

Yes we will have maps available.

Pro and Advanced divisions are now full. If you would like to be put on a wait list, PM me.

I don't mind!!!!!!:D

From the K end, most people should have about 3500 mg/day and a 12 oz beer has 96 mg...so that is about 35 beers, but they say 5000 mg/day is too much so not over 50 beers a day please. This has been a PSA brought to you by sciencet_cher.

Sock drive is up to 1041, Thanks. Have a safe trip in and plan on Biff's Sat night.

"From the K end". :)

Always the science teacher.

Love the primate sig.

Just played UC. It's hot, humid, and hot out there. The holes look as well-groomed as I've ever seen them.

UC PRD is out working, so thank them when you see them.

I used my credit card in Live Oak Saturday around noon to make a purchase at a convenience store between rounds. Saturday evening there was a fraudulent purchase made to a phone company in Lebanon for $300. Just FYI folks. Keep an eye on your card transactions.
