Hey there, I know it’s last minute but is anyone teeing off later than 8:30 that has room for one more on their card? I’m driving from Columbia in the morning and trying to avoid leaving at 6am as much as possible haha.

GROUPING:
Groups will be mixed and assigned (if you have not created your own) as people show up to the course. This is a flex start event, starting on hole 1 of the championship course. Groups can be 3, 4 or 5 players. Players can tee off as early as 8:30 (or as soon as I get there) and as late as 1:00. I recommend trying to start as early as possible to avoid possible inclement weather.
SCORECARDS:
We will be using the PDGA Digital Scorecard as the Official Scorecard. The link is PDGA.com/Score. The access code will be available at the event. A paper scorecard will be provided to each group, along with the rules. Please reconcile or check your scores and remember to submit them on line. YOU MUST KEEP TWO SETS OF SCORES AND RECONCILE THEM AT THE END. The second scorecard may be paper or digital (i.e. uDisc).
TOURNAMENT CENTRAL/BATHROOMS:
Tournament Central and two porta-potties that will be available near Hole 1.
WATER:
Water will be available on the course, but in limited supplies. Please bring your own water.
PDGA RULES:
Some rules have changed since 2021. Please check out the PDGA rules changes at https://discgolf.ultiworld.com/.../here-are-the-major.../ and https://www.pdga.com/.../pdga-official-rules-disc-golf.... If you're new to PDGA competition, please review all the rules at https://www.pdga.com/rules/official-rules-disc-golf
If you throw Hole 8, THAT IS A MISPLAY. Play hole 9 and give yourself two penalty throws.
RESULTS:
Results will be posted on the event Disc Golf Scene page.
Amateur payouts will be through Dynamic Discs - Kansas City, Maverick Disc Golf, or Truly Unique Disc Golf – pick one on entry or pick one at check-in.
Professional payouts are through PayPal, unless you prefer a check. I can do that too.
