Hello Dean, the novelty of this tournament is that you can play with friends whom are at different levels. If you have played FDR before - you have to walk past the white baskets while playing yellow or white -- our baskets for the most part are in line just further (versus other courses where the longs may plan in a different direction) If you can find 3 other MPO, MA1 or MA2 I can put together a card a 2pm - or 12: 40 or move to a 3 some that has the same layout you are playing. I had confirmed with the Board in advance (concerned for time played) and consulted the PDGA. If I was to have a 2nd round I would be require to align you by course layout for that 2nd round - but that does not apply to our single round tournament.
Understood Chris, not going to worry about it then. Appreciate the reply.
Please give me feedback after your round - this was the first year doing the different layout - I wanted to make is more challenging for the better players
Awesome event!!
