I’ll do some check ins everyday and see if I can answer any of the easy questions! If it’s anything super important and needs addressed right away I’ll text you

Scott Campbell   October 22, 2021 at 4:02pm

I’m in here regularly and can answer any questions too.

kevin whitlock    October 18, 2021 at 7:33pm

Just was informed I will have to work on Saturday the 6th. Any way I can get on the wait list for intermediate on Sunday?

Michael Knepp   October 19, 2021 at 12:01am

Sure, I can move you to the waitlist for Pool B. Hope we can get you in off of the waitlist.

Hey Michael. Quick question. Just played Grassman yesterday and I was curious as to where the temp holes will be located. I don't have a Facebook and maybe this was posted there, but I was just curious of the locations, pars, distances, etc. Thanks!

Were you there around 10ish.. I thought I seen your car but I wasn't sure. We started around 8

Mike Shevock   October 18, 2021 at 10:41pm

I didn’t get there until about 1:30

Michael Knepp   October 19, 2021 at 12:31am

I have added photos on the "About" tab showing Temp holes A, B and C. Temp holes A and B will be played after hole #4 and Temp Hole C will be played after hole #16.

Just curious how it works that the new ratings came out and a couple in novice should move up according the their ratings?

It's only two players that need to move up from MA4 after the ratings update.

Michael Knepp   October 17, 2021 at 10:52pm

Dan, you are not even registered for the event...

Michael Knepp   October 18, 2021 at 1:17am

They have been moved to MA3

Matt Turi    October 13, 2021 at 7:14pm

I have now obtained a PDGA # 191467, but did not have it when I registered for this event. Can you add it to my entry? Thx.

Just a request from a peasant. In my last few practice rounds the tee pads (especially those in the woods) kind of retain some of their grime (leaves, and other flora buildup) would it be possible for at some in the week preceeding the event for a power washer to be taken to those pads? Just to avoid mud, algae, wet leaf slippage? Or alternatively... brooms?

Nathaniel... You do know a pressure washer requires a water supply...

Michael Knepp   October 15, 2021 at 1:48pm

If every club member brought their garden hose we might have enough hose to get water to the woods teepads to be pressure washed... Unfortunately this is likely not possible but we will be sure to brush off the pads week of the event. That said, with it being fall there will likely be leaves and d ... more

Scott Campbell   October 17, 2021 at 4:42pm

We have the capability to pressure wash the pads. Time is what we don’t have right now. It is something that will be done next season at some point.

Michael Knepp    October 11, 2021 at 4:02pm

Player Pack UPDATE: Custom Attack of the Grassman hoodies have been ordered as an item in the player pack. As a TD this is tricky with custom sizes, especially with the trend of last minute drops from events this year. If you drop within 2 weeks of the event and I can't fill your spot with your size hoodie I may have to refund you for an amount lower than you paid to cover the cost of the hoodie. We can hold the hoodie for you but will likely not be able to give you the full player pack ... more

done!

Michael Knepp    September 21, 2021 at 12:45am

The Player Packs are really coming together for this event and I can't wait to hand these out day of! Scott Campbell has truly outdone himself once again on the design, no sneak peek requests... The pack will include a custom event shirt so please, please, please, if you are unable to attend the event please drop well in advance so that we can accommodate everyone's shirt sizes.

DriFit?

Michael Knepp   September 22, 2021 at 3:08pm

Custom "Attack of the Grassman" hoodies!!!

Brad Silvers   September 23, 2021 at 3:52pm

Nice

Michael Knepp    September 17, 2021 at 5:34pm

UPDATE: The short pads will unfortunately not all be in place by the time of the event so both pools/all divisions will throw 2 rounds from the long tee pads. This layout, although challenging, is one of the best layouts in Northeast Ohio! Get out there and get some practice in over the next few months, don't let The Grassman scare you away!

Kenny Fogleman   September 17, 2021 at 8:34pm

The longs are long but not unplayable when it comes to Rec players. There are no "crushes" if you will but placement shots.. I 100% support and agree with playing from the pads for both rounds.

David Perdok   October 15, 2021 at 3:33am

First time playing this AMAZING course today. Made the hour drive to check it out before the tournament. What Kenny said is 100% true for Rec players. I am a Rec player and personally i would rather play both rounds from the long tees. This course is awesome and cannot wait until the tournament..

Michael Knepp   October 15, 2021 at 1:50pm

Thanks guys, Grassman is one of my favorite courses in the area and in my top 10 I've ever played. Scott Campbell is truly THE MAN!!! "THE GRASSMAN"!!!

Scott Williams    September 15, 2021 at 12:55am

So, there will be 3 temp holes for this as well?

So excited. Thank you for this. Its my first tournament and I looked like a lot of fun!

So since it’s two different days now are there going to be CTP’s for each day in two different Ace funds

Michael Knepp   September 9, 2021 at 5:25pm

The Ace Fund will be split for Pool A and Pool B. Pool A players will be playing for the Pool A Ace Pot and Pool B Players will be playing for the Pool B Ace Pot.

Matt Dartanion Schultz    September 9, 2021 at 2:34pm

Done, sorry for the change. Trying to give as many people a chance to play. Thanks for being a good sport and moving up to stay in the event. Good luck brother!

Michael Knepp    September 9, 2021 at 2:07pm

Due to HIGH DEMAND we have decided to change this event to a 2 day tournament splitting up the pools between Saturday and Sunday. This allowed everyone in off of the waitlist and opened up 30 more spots in the event!!! LET'S GO!!!
