Just wondering if disc were ever retrieved from water hazards. I am particularly curious about hole 3 on the short course.

Rick Saffeels   May 27, 2015 at 12:55pm

They will be contacting me with a box of discs that they have found. Thanks!

Soracharn Vann   May 27, 2015 at 2:34pm

awesome, legacy pinnacle cannon with my name and number on it.

Soracharn Vann    May 19, 2015 at 2:52am

Was there poison ivy out in the brush on theses holes? My legs are both all spotted up and itchy. Just wondering if I was the only one with this issue.

They climb all over and kinda burrow. I had pants on and they still managed to bite me high up on my legs.

Rick Saffeels   May 19, 2015 at 2:10am

Same with me. They were at the lake when we set up the baskets on Friday and they were biting us so much that we had to go back to the club house. Take a 24 hour allergy pill and the itching has gone away for me. Also shower in lukewarm to cold shower to reduce itching with having contact with water.

Shorty Ogden-Moles   May 22, 2015 at 11:43pm

I am all bit up and I even used off. I got home and I was like holly bug buffet

Thanks Rick! You're the man!!

thanks

Shorty Ogden-Moles    May 18, 2015 at 8:15am

Thank you Rick, Elkhorn Golf Course, and all the Volunteers. It was a great tournament that tested all your skills. There were some hiccups but I think that could be cured by doing a questionnaire to help with future events. My personal experience it was a great tournament and I appreciate everyone that was involved.

Steve Moore   May 18, 2015 at 12:26am

I don't think there is a questionnaire made at this time but is good idea that Rick and I can discuss. I know there were couple issues we can learn from and improve on. We are open to all constructive comments and suggestions as we only want things to get better for all of us. Lots of work b ... more

there's an event review at pdga.com Dgla tourney page

Shorty Ogden-Moles   May 18, 2015 at 11:55am

Steve, the only thing I thought was a hiccup was maybe start sign in earlier so that your not rushed. On long courses like this one maybe have a driver to drive those players to those holes. they did it in the last tournament I was in and it was really affective. next is as score cards are being han ... more

Rick Saffeels    May 17, 2015 at 8:43pm

Thank again for the almost hundreds of volunteers that went into making this event what it was! Scores cannot be posted yet because my computer was left at Elkhorn without the charger and Scores were not put in last night as you all know that there was no wifi. I will try to get it back as soon as possibly so thank you for your patience (As a B-Tier event there is up to 2 weeks to submit scores but I will not make you wait that long don't worry).

AUMSVILLE!!!

Kayla Winslow   May 18, 2015 at 12:54am

Lee, I'm sure Rick had a dedicated team of volunteers behind him, just as Steven and I do.

Rick Saffeels   May 18, 2015 at 4:15am

Scores are now posted :)

Marcus Steel    May 17, 2015 at 8:14pm

Did anyone hear of any 4's on that 1500 foot hole? I blasted 3 perfect drives (for me), threw an upshot that went 35 past and then hit my comeback putt for a 5 and felt like that 5 was an accomplishment.

Thanks it felt great because it was a little intimidating.

Marcus Steel   May 18, 2015 at 11:11pm

Play with Confidence, Shorty!

Marcus Steel   May 19, 2015 at 12:10am

Thanks Kalib, it was fun being on a card with you...hopefully we will be on the same card again!

I lost a blue and green vibram obex on hole 3 of the blue course in the water. Name and # are on the back.

Jeff Heltsley   May 18, 2015 at 10:28am

Red course, 6th hole, Blue Hatchet in the water just a bit before the basket. Has my name and number on it I think. There were several other discs in there that I could see as well.

Rob "RICOCHET" McClurg   May 18, 2015 at 8:18pm

Lost a red Prodigy F7 of to the left of 9 on the Blue Name and # on it

Tyler Franklin    May 16, 2015 at 4:18pm

I stayed with a buddy in lyons about 10 min from elkhorn and its been raining ALL night long. Bring plenty of dry socks as im sure the course will be verry saturated. See yall soon.

Rick Saffeels    May 16, 2015 at 10:47am

One Innova Discs or Gateway discs, $5 for extra gateway putter, everyone will get towels, pencils, and course photo map. 100 Glow minis and 100 patches for $4 each ($1 off from players packs). $15 greens fee and players packs I only took out $16. (valued at $28 but then payouts would be really small so I did the field a favor). No player packs for pros but they still get a free Kind Bar and pencil, and course map, and playing for cash and Trophies. Thanks and see you soon!

Cooper Axe    May 16, 2015 at 8:51am

Will we be able to purchase additional players pack discs? If so, can I use a credit card?

Permalink
Rick Saffeels   May 16, 2015 at 2:41am

Yes after registration disc will be for sale and credit card available :)

Jennie Cartwright    May 16, 2015 at 8:03am

If anyone has an extra stool that they wouldn't mind lending someone for the day, please let me know! Kara Gordon, one of the advanced masters ladies, is staying in Salem tonight and forgot hers at home in Portland. She's got a bad ankle so it would be greatly appreciated if we can help her out!

Zac Teuscher   May 16, 2015 at 12:59am

Mr. Snap   May 16, 2015 at 12:29am

anything like the last one?....maybe without the 30+mph wind?

Jordan yent    May 15, 2015 at 10:41pm

Just wondering out of excitement and anticipation, is there going to be a lot of OB?

Permalink
Mr. Snap   May 15, 2015 at 2:53pm

usually all ball golf putting greens and walking trails and of course water are OB....definitely way more than a normal dg course

Jordan yent   May 15, 2015 at 4:42pm

Good points, pretty excited for this!

Zac Teuscher   May 16, 2015 at 1:01am

there is a ton of OB! sand traps, all cart paths, ponds, ravines... etc. played Blue Lake? think that lol

Ivan Burford    May 15, 2015 at 8:30pm

Is it too late to make glow dubs happen tonight? That woulda been sweet to set up! Bearing in mind Elkhorn would allow it...

I don't see why there would be, we would ask that they understand about staying out of player's way and all. Going to be a lot more disc golfers tomorrow then their typical golf day

Rick Saffeels   May 15, 2015 at 1:07pm

I talked to Tony about spectators and you can come for just $2!!!

Steve Moore   May 15, 2015 at 1:10pm

Thanks for the update and correction, had not heard that yet

Buck "Yeah!" Rich    May 14, 2015 at 9:07pm

Only 2 days to go. I'm so pumped about this Tournament. Thanks Rick for making this grand event take place. The disc golf community in this area is very strong thanks to people like you. See you out there!!

second that

Steve Moore   May 14, 2015 at 2:27pm

It should be a wonderful day and opportunity for all involved and playing. It's been my pleasure to be part of it and tomorrow afternoon will be busy setting course while golf tournement going on. My map work is done for the layout and health slowly coming back after ER visit last weekend and being replenished by IV tubes. It's all good, just really slow this week. Cya

Rick Saffeels    May 13, 2015 at 8:33pm

THERE ARE only 7 Maple Hill Open Vibram Specialty discs but they messed up on the print so they will arrive next week (ordered them in February)
frown emoticon
If you would like to order one they will be $20 (free shipping). Picture to come. Thanks!
