Congratulations to all the winners, including Mike Vasey and Alex Derr who both won an Innova Discatcher EZ donated by Indiana Cycling Center in the basket contest.

The event provided amateur players 245% of their entry fee in tournament value from player pa ... more

I'm not sure what the current state of the planned turf tee pads are but will there be any leeway with teeing off behind the rubber mats if those are still in?

J. Gary Dropcho   April 18, 2022 at 7:29pm

Short rubber mats have been removed from all White Tees.

J Gary, could you switch me to MA1 for Sunday?

J. Gary Dropcho   April 14, 2022 at 12:36am

Garrett, you can do the switch by registering for MA1 on Sunday and requesting to withdraw from MA2 on Saturday. I will process the refund immediatel

Can you share the pin locations by hole? I played it this past Sunday and I'm curious which holes might have changed since then.

Some of you far down on the Intermediate waitlist should consider playing up and joining the MA1 field on Sunday instead. A few spots open there.

J. Gary Dropcho    February 23, 2022 at 12:56am

The other half of the tournament will play their rounds on Sunday May 1. There are currently 12 spots left in that field, including spots in MA1, MP40, and MPO. If you are on a waitlist for MA2 or MA40, you might consider getting in one of those fields for which you might be eligible.

Hoping the Novice party can grow by a few registrants as this would be my first tournament in a while and I'm super stoked. My 2nd EVER that I'll be scored on too so that'll be awesome to see.

Once I have registered as a hole sponsor, how do I select my divison?

Put it in the Notes section oh your registration. (You can edit if you’ve already completed). Or send the TD a message and we’ll put you where you want to be.
