Alaska PDGA Winter Series #20

Davis Park is back!

If you haven't heard, the city has finally decided to cleanup the campers from the Davis DGC parking lot. I was there yesterday and there's still a couple vehicles that need to be removed, and a few trash camps in the woods, but the actual course is open and playing great. The snow is melting fast and all the short teepads are snow/ice free. So go get some rounds in and let's not let the course get away from us. We will be mixing Davis into our Tuesday night league rotation.

ADGA Winter Series 20 Recap

Shameless pat on the back for myself (Dan Allen) and James Robinson, your league coordinators, as we finished week 10 atop the leaderboard with each of us shooting our personal best score (at the Goon) and rating in a round to take 1st and 2nd place this week.

Thank you to everyone who played this winter. It was great to play with new players to the league and the same old chuckers I've been disc'ing with over the years. We had 32 people play and 160 rounds played. We enjoyed some ... more

Shameless pat on the back for myself (Dan Allen) and James Robinson, your league coordinators, as we finished week 10 atop the leaderboard with each of us shooting our personal best score (at the Goon) and rating in a round to take 1st and 2nd place this week.

Thank you to everyone who played this winter. It was great to play with new players to the league and the same old chuckers I've been disc'ing with over the years. We had 32 people play and 160 rounds played. We enjoyed some great disc golf this winter regardless of cold, snow, rain, or very angry moose.

Each week you play you get 2.5 points for every person you beat or tie, plus 2.5 points for yourself. At the end of this series the top points finishers were, 1st Allen, 2nd Graham, 3rd J. DelReal, 4th Sramek, and 5th Munoz. Allen, Sramek, Munoz, and Black were the winter iron men and played all 10 rounds. Graham and Lukas each played 9 rounds, and both DelReal bros and also Moon played 8 rounds. Thanks fellas for powering through every Saturday.

A Pool had 7 different people win, B Pool had 9 different winners, and C pool had 5 people win. Allen won A pool 4 times (10 tries), Beckner 2 times (3 tries). Sramek, Black, Munoz, and Moon all won B pool 2 times each. Sramek and Black split time this series between A and B pool. Lukas won C pool 5 times, with Thurston II and S. Del Real each winning 2 times. Those stats include ties.

Top scorers this series for each pool were -14 by Purpero and Allen, -13 by Robinson, Beckner, and Groves, and -12 by Beckner in A pool. B pool had Oliver go nuts for -11, and the next best weekly winning score was -8 by Munoz (x2), Black (x2), Moon, Strawn, and Griffin. C pool had -6 by Kiess (his sole C pool week before his rating bumped him to B Pool), -1 Thurston II, and Lukas (E).

We had 1,000+ rated rounds by Allen x3, Beckner, Groves, and Purpero. The highest rated rounds were Beckner 1,036, and Purpero 1,030. Ratings aren't finalized yet however. So maybe we might gain or lose some 1,000 rated rounds as there were a few right on the edge above or below the line. League results were submitted to the PDGA and will be included in Tuesday's ratings update most likely.

We had 3 Aces, Allen and Purpero Basket 7, and Groves basket 3.

Thanks to the ADGA board for the support and Joe Caissie for his support getting James and I setup as the newb league coordinators.

Keep an eye on DG Scene for the start of Summer Leagues to be held each Tuesday night. Possibly the first week of May. Leagues will be at a mix of courses as usual but mostly Peters Creek, and Kincaid. Hopefully we can claim Davis back eventually.

First tourney will be in Homer at Jack Gist on 4/27, and then Kincaid Kickoff on 5/4.

See ya'll on the disc golf course this summer!

Week 9 Recap

Pretty much it was the Purpero show out there. He laid a scorcher down for sure. Best score of the winter leagues at -14, most birdies in a row (11) getting the 2 on holes 15-7. And he did it all in snow pants! I for one plan to dress like it's the first time I've ever disc golfed in the snow as well. Just kidding Anthony, well done sir!

Weslee came back from his hiatus to take down B pool by two strokes. His 945 rated -8 was his best showing this series. And Mr. Sal DelReal took hi ... more

Weslee came back from his hiatus to take down B pool by two strokes. His 945 rated -8 was his best showing this series. And Mr. Sal DelReal took his first (?) C pool win of the winter by beating his two competitors by two strokes. His 57 was the best of his season. So it looks like to win any of the pools you have to shoot a personal league best.

All three pools shot above their group rating this week. So the ratings were rather lackluster as a result. Had to shoot -5 just to get 902 rated.

Basket 6 was out there catching birdies as usual. 26 to be exact. We shot .670 strokes under par on it. And basket 3 was the only one meaningfully over par at .50 strokes over par. No baskets were bogey free and we missed birdies on holes 12 and 13 to keep are birdie streak alive the last few weeks.

This weekend is the last round of winter singles, and tomorrow is the last regular dubs round. Stay tuned for info on summer leagues projected to start the last week of April or First week of May.

Side note, congrats to Frank going out to the valley and taking top honors in the regular Sunday match they do out there. Not bad for a guy chucking backhands like a blind one legged chicken on meth. You'll always be #2

Week 8 Recap

Return of the Oliver. First time of the session that A pool didn't take the overall win. So congrats to B pool convincing Oliver to come out of hibernation and shoot a -11 to take down B pool and the weekend hot score. A pool still did ok with Will and Frank both shooting -10. And C pool forgot that it's a competitive league and all got the same score.

B pool outshot their collective rating by almost 19 points (Oliver alone was 80 points better than his rating. A and C pool both we ... more

B pool outshot their collective rating by almost 19 points (Oliver alone was 80 points better than his rating. A and C pool both were woefully under their rating.

Basket 2 continues to shine like the star it is being the only basket to catch every par putt and thus had zero bogies. Basket 6 has gotta be the stud of the weekend tho. We had 29 birdies which was 72.5% of all attempts. 1 bogey however. Basket 3 continues to haunt our rounds and gave us plenty of strokes over par. We shot almost a half stroke over par with plenty of bogies and a handful of double bogies.

Tonight is bring your own partner dubs at the goon. So find someone who can drain all your putts and win some cash tonight.

Week 7 Recap

Let's talk highlights!

First and foremost were all the aces! I personally saw 4 aces Saturday. I should start charging people to watch them play. Sramek hit a warmup round ace on 7 while we were checking pads and throwing shots. Groves pure'd hole 3 during the round with his Buzzz and hit chains for the first paid ace of the day. We got a little excited watching that one hit home. Purpero beat up on hole 7 again with an ace while my card was standing on 6's pad and still glowin ... more

Sramek hit a warmup round ace on 7 while we were checking pads and throwing shots. Groves pure'd hole 3 during the round with his Buzzz and hit chains for the first paid ace of the day. We got a little excited watching that one hit home. Purpero beat up on hole 7 again with an ace while my card was standing on 6's pad and still glowing from Scotts ace. I believe it was his red Zone. And then we played an after-round dubs cash game and Purpero decided to show us how he aced hole 7 with his red zone by aceing hole 7 with his red zone. So he won the most ace money Saturday since our group of 8 all put in $5 for any ace. Very cool day.

J. DelReal took down A pool with his best showing of the session at -10, he also had the longest birdie streak getting holes 13-17. Briseno made his triumphant debut to session 20 by taking a share of B pool 1st place winnings along with Munoz at -5. And Thurston beat up on C pool by 6 strokes! Shooting a -1. That's the second largest margin of victory in a pool this session. Only behind Kiess' 9 stroke beat down of C pool during his 1 week reign of terror in week 3 before bumping his rating to B pool. Also in week 3 Groves kicked A pools butt by 5 strokes for the third largest margin of victory this session.

B and C pools both outshot their group rating (24 points and 12.25 points) this week. A pool undershot their rating by 3.5 points.

Every hole had at least 2 birdies this week. That's a first for our session. Basket 6 was our birdie magnet of the week. We shot a half stroke under par and had 20 birdies out of 34 attempts. Basket 2 only had 16 birdies, but was the only basket with no bogies. Basket 7 had it's worst/best showing of the session. Worst because it was only the fifth easiest basket on the day shooting 0.24 strokes under par, which was worse than baskets 6, 2, 1, and 8. I'm flabbergasted baskets 1 & 8 out performed the basket I had previously dubbed Jerry Rice. But I saw 3 aces on it so it was more Dominique Wilkins than Rice this week.

Wednesday Night Dubs tomorrow night. Random draw as usual, but WND on 3/27 is bring your own partner. So text McBeth or Climo and see if they want to win $20 bucks. Post your pairing on the Dubs page.

Week 7 - Beware Spenard Rd Closure

Get your money to me if you plan on playing this Saturday! We'll be back at the Goon as usual. The forecast looks mild and there's likely to be some light snow flurries.

Due to a St. Patricks Day Race, Spenard Rd will be closed, so please plan on taking W 19th Ave to get to the DG parking lot.

Week 6 Recap

We grouped all cards by rating this week and I've only heard positive feedback. We'll continue to revisit this format for a change of pace.

Welcome back King James from his best ever finish at the Memorial Championship. Getting some cash with his 24th place finish. Beckner took down leagues again this week. He's played leagues twice this session and won twice. His drives were so-so, but his putting was great. We had 9 players in A pool and 7 players got paid out. 4th place was ... more

Welcome back King James from his best ever finish at the Memorial Championship. Getting some cash with his 24th place finish. Beckner took down leagues again this week. He's played leagues twice this session and won twice. His drives were so-so, but his putting was great. We had 9 players in A pool and 7 players got paid out. 4th place was a 4 way tie at -8 and paid out a whopping $1.63 each. A pool was the only group to shoot above their collective rating (by 0.89 points).

Also congrats to Sramek with his first showing in A pool this series after the mid series promotion. His -8 was his best this session, he went bogey free, and along with Beckner, the only players with a 4 birdie streak (holes 14-17). That $1.63 might even buy you a cookie.

Naz pulled away from the rest of B pool to win with an A pool worthy -8, which was a whopping 64 points above his rating. His $17 payout sure beats the $1.63 those A pool -8s received. Yang earns a holla for his bogey free round. The only non A pool player to do so. Solid performance Mr. Yang.

Lukas found a new rival with the emergence of Thurston this week. Thurston won C pool by two strokes with the only 2 birdies in C pool on their back 9.

Like last week, we birdied every hole again this week. Thanks to solo birdies by D. Allen (12) and J. DelReal (13). Not the only birdie on hole 4, but Purpero earns a shoutout for his birdie after he nearly aced it with the cage hit on his drive.

Basket 2 and 6 dethroned basket 7 as the easiest basket this week. 2 and 6 both averaged .560 strokes under par while basket 7 was .530 under par. Good tag team takedown baskets 2&6. Basket 2 was the only one without a bogey and earns the basket MVP award. Basket 7 did reign with 22 birdies however, 64.71% of all attempts ended in 2 strokes.

No aces in week 6, but Wednesday Night Dubs is tonight. So show up and take some runs at those baskets.

Week 5 Recap

It was another chilly day at the goon with some moderate winds. Dan Allen was the big winner of the week, taking home $200 thanks to his $182 ace with a beautiful backhand hyzer around the trees on hole 7, plus 1st place for A pool. Congrats to Dan! Will and Scott were the closest competition in A pool, both posting respectable -8s to split the 2nd/3rd A Pool payouts.

Jeremy got the W in C pool at +5 over Sal (+9), despite Sal having 2 more birdies.

We'll be back at the Goon again this Saturday! Venmo me your entry fees or, if that's not your thing, coordinate with a friend who will accept your cash and have them Venmo me to let me know you're playing.

Week 5 Sanctioned Singles at the Goon 3/2/24

Hello fellow plastic enthusiasts. Never too early to get on the roster for Saturday disc golf. Venmo your money to James Robinson please.

Ice Bowl Recap:
Scores were the highest we've seen in 2024 by far. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the unlimited mulligans. Frank and Scott shot perfect -18s to tie for best score. Groves did it the boring way by scoring birdie on every hole. Frank started the round with a very unimpressive par on hole 4 and then decided to spice it up with th ... more

Ice Bowl Recap:
Scores were the highest we've seen in 2024 by far. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the unlimited mulligans. Frank and Scott shot perfect -18s to tie for best score. Groves did it the boring way by scoring birdie on every hole. Frank started the round with a very unimpressive par on hole 4 and then decided to spice it up with the first shot ace on hole 1 (CTP hole as well). So to a playoff they headed. Both put there drives on hole 1 to about 10-15 feet. Bag on no brainer putts. They moved to hole 2 for the expected result. Frank threw first and came up a woeful 10 feet short. Scott flexed on Frank up by leaving his shot 20 feet short left. No biggie, bag off, focus, focus, focus, and ... clang. Sorry Scott, congrats Frank.

Major thank you to Bill for running a fun and engaging tournament. His style and enthusiasm running the event ensured everyone had a great time. I won't exactly directly say the raffle was rigged... but I had 55 tickets in there (rage mulligans are addictive) and I only won twice! But there were tons of sweet plastic and prizes given away to many smiling faces. We salute you Bill!

Ace pot for tomorrow's Wednesday Night Lights Dubs will be over $130. I tried my best to buy an ace Saturday, but maybe you can snag it tomorrow night on my behalf. Check-in by 6:15PM

Week 4 Recap

But first a reminder that there will not be any league play this Saturday 2/24. We will resume with week 5 on 3/2.

Instead join us for the 2024 Ice Bowl this Saturday. Check-in starts and 9:45 am and we tee off at 11:00 am. Only about half the slots are filled so far. Bring a fat stack of singles and buy your way to your first tournament win. Or 100th win, who cares, it's charity.

Week 4 was the first time we didn't have a 1,000 rated round this session. Scores were ok, but not great. Most of A pool (Groves, Rutledge, DelReal, Graham) decided to cross the finish line at -8 and share 2nd place, I'm not much of a team player and decided to throw an extra birdie for -9. I (Allen) was also the only player with a 4 birdie streak (holes 5-8), odd for our league. As a group A pool shot 947 rated, 7.57 points above their average. 5 of 7 players received cash.

B Pool did a little better as a group with Black taking the top spot with -8, and Chung on his heels at -7. B Pool shot 901 rated which was 13 points above their average. Moon shot 46 points above his rating and 3 other players shot at least 34 points above their rating. 4 of 8 players received cash.

C Pool had an off day but it looks like it was a nail biter with Lukas (...again...) taking 1st place and S. DelReal and Tyler both only 1 stroke behind. Which means C Pool paid out 100% of the players! As a group they shot 725 rated with was 29 points below their average.

Basket 2 was Jerry Rice out there. It was the only basket to catch every par putt (and 21 birdie putts), and we shot .585 strokes under par. So yea no bogies on basket 2, good job team. Baskets 6 and 7 also played .50 and .555 stokes under par with basket 7 having the most birdies at 22 which means 61% of attempts were birdies.

Basket 3 was pro level hard. We scored .42 strokes OVER par and J. DelReal was the only birdie on the day. I watched that shot spike down within a few feet of the basket. Would have been more impressive if he threw the shot with his right hand tho. Basket 4 was .22 strokes over par and only Graham, Groves, and Constales grabbed the birdie.

A few highlights from week 3:
Scott matched Beckner's week 1 performance with a -13. He also had the longest birdie streak with 5 in a row on holes 17-3. Congrats to Chung and J. Robinson for dethroning Sramek and Munoz from their reign atop of B Pool. Kiess dominated C Pool and the ratings update bumps him to B Pool now. J. Robinson also gets a ratings bump to A Pool as well. Congrats on the ratings jump gentlemen. Allen and J. Robinson were the only players without a bogey.

A Pool shot 936.40 rated this week. B Pool 897.29, and C Pool 825.67.

The shining star of the weekend was basket 2. We shot two thirds of a stroke under par as a group and got 20 birdies (66.67% birdie rate) and no bogeys. Basket 6 and 7 were also putting in work to catch our putts and both were over a half stroke under par. We didn't have any bogeys on baskets 2 and 6 this week. Basket 3 was brutal as we shot almost a half stroke over par. Still Black, Griff, and Groves managed a birdie each. Basket 4 had a 3.33% birdie rate with Groves getting the lonely birdie this weekend.

Wednesday Night Lights tomorrow at the Goon! Warm weather and an ace pot at over $100 awaits you!

Week 3 Recap - Reminder to Venmo Dan for Week 4

We had the warmest round of 2024 today, but for some reason scores were a bit colder than usual. Maybe we've all gotten used to throwing with extra layers on. On the bright side, we did have a nice crowd of 14 players with 5 players in A pool, 7 in B pool, and 3 in C pool.

Scott annihilated everybody today with a scorcher at -13 (unofficially rated 1018!). Frank was his closest competition shooting a very solid -8 despite bogeying his second to last hole. Big Mike and I tied for first in ... more

Scott annihilated everybody today with a scorcher at -13 (unofficially rated 1018!). Frank was his closest competition shooting a very solid -8 despite bogeying his second to last hole. Big Mike and I tied for first in B pool at -7. Adam Kiess joined the league with about 15 minutes to spare and ended up taking down C pool at -6 which would have tied for 3rd (and cashed) in B pool.

Ratings will update this coming Tuesday and we're likely to see some players move into different pools.

A final reminder - please Venmo Dan Allen (@DanAllen1919) if you want to play next week (2/17) - he'll be running the show solo while I'm out of the country for a bit. We're likely to remain at the Goon but Dan will be sending out another update later this week.

Week 2 Score Recap

10 Players, 17 holes, 1 angry moose

David and Naz finished 1 and 2 just as they did week 1 continuing their reign on top of B Pool. B pool paid out 4 out of 6 players this week.

Dan topped the 4 player A pool with Will also finishing with come e-cash in his account.

C pool boycotted the round. So I guess honorary winner will be Pohler this week. Congrats Tyler!

Since it was so cold this week, Scott made Wednesday Dubs double points! Not to be out done, I'm assigning triple points to anyone who plays leagues this week. *the points are still imaginary, unassociated with ADGA or PDGA, and won't mean anything, but they'll be triple!*

No Sanctioned Leagues tomorrow 1/27/24

Just another reminder that tomorrow will be the overly long and complicated tournament name aka Tyler Pohler's doubles tournament, so we are skipping sanctioned leagues for the week.

But we can reminisce on last week!
Beckner gets the overachiever award for outshooting his rating by 65 points! Graham gets the super streaker award for his 5 birdie streak on holes 5-9. Pool C gets the hammer & sickle award for collectively shooting 31.5 points above their rating. The I play it safe/I& ... more

Just another reminder that tomorrow will be the overly long and complicated tournament name aka Tyler Pohler's doubles tournament, so we are skipping sanctioned leagues for the week.

But we can reminisce on last week!
Beckner gets the overachiever award for outshooting his rating by 65 points! Graham gets the super streaker award for his 5 birdie streak on holes 5-9. Pool C gets the hammer & sickle award for collectively shooting 31.5 points above their rating. The I play it safe/I'm just awesome award goes to Beckner, J. DelReal, and Allen for the only three players without a Bogey. Da Real MVP for the week is Basket 6 who gave us a 62.5% birdie rate. Honorable mention for Baskets 2 & 7 which gave zero bogeys. And the scrooge of the week has to be Basket 3 in which the league shot .54 above par and only a 4.17% birdie rate. Solo birdie belonging to Mr. Streaker himself, Will Graham. All award recipients get 100 bonus points for the week! *Bonus points mean nothing, are non-transferable, have no monetary or redeeming value whatsoever, and are not tracked or remembered*

House keeping notes:
Ace pot rules were modified.
When the pot value is:
$1-$100, Solo ace wins it all
$101-$150, Solo ace wins $100
$151+, Solo ace wins the pot less $50
If multiple aces are hit on the same day, the full pot will be split evenly among all acers.

Scorekeeping rules for all sanctioned rounds.
PDGA now requires all participants (or their caddy) to keep score for all players on the card, verify for accuracy with cardmates, and submit all scorecards to the TD (league director) within 30 minutes after your round ends. Obviously PDGA live scoring is the best way to do this, but other forms of scorekeeping are allowed. See League rules for further info.

Reminder - No League This Weekend

Just a reminder that there will be no sanctioned league this Saturday, Jan 27th. We will be back for Week 2 on 2/3. If the teepads are cleared, we'll be playing Davis - keep an eye on the schedule listed here.

Congratulations to James Beckner for a hot round at the goon last week. I believe his -13 round is the best we've seen so far for this winter. Dave Sramek took down B pool with a solid round at -4 and Jeremey Loukas edged out Sal DelReal by one stroke for the C pool win.

Welcome to Winter Series 20

Send me your entry fees if you plan on playing on 1/20. We'll be at Westchester. If you have a hankering to play Davis again, I encourage you to go out and clear a tee pad or two. There is a lot of work to be done out there, but it would be nice to have a bit of variety for the league.

There will not be a league round on 1/27 as it conflicts with the Haskin Hardwood's Bass doubles challenge. Round 2 for the league will be on 2/3.

Wrapping up Series 19:

Wrapping up Series 19:
Robinson Culver, Anthony Pupero, and James Beckner had the hot rounds last week shooting -8 to split the top payout for A pool. Wes Moon and Tyler Pohler took down B and C pools respectively. Will Graham had the hot shot of the day, acing hole #7 and taking home a $165 ace pot. Dan Allen secured the overall points total win for Winter Series 19 - a testament to both his his scoring and attendance. Joe Cassie managed to secure 2nd place despite being absent for two weeks.

Speaking of Joe - a big thank-you goes out to him for keeping this league afloat and for taking the time to train Dan and I on how to run it. We've made some minor modifications to the league rules and may continue to change them in the days ahead. For further details, read through the about this league section.
