Course layout: We have been fine-tuning Raintree for years specifically for this event. Our layout is very fair for players of all calibers. C'mon out, you will have a blast!
YOU MUST PREPAY TO BE SURE YOU ARE IN THE EVENT!
Rules of play: Players are required to use the player package discs, and only one of the discs provided the day of the event. If a disc is lost, the player has the option of using the second disc from the package. Only one throw per player per hole. All groups will have a scorecard and mark "A" for aces (a hole-in-one) and "M" for holes on when someone hits metal.
After all players in the group have thrown, discs are picked up and the group moves directly to the next tee. We use an alternating tee box meaning if you tee off first on one hole you move to last on the next and the person who threw 2nd behind you now throws 1st. The same rotating format follows each hole thereafter.
The player with the most aces after 36 holes is declared the winner. In case of ties, the number of metal hits is used as a tie breaker. If a tie persists, a closest to the pin contest is then used to determine the event winner.
We have had huge crowds in the past but the event flows very smooth and is over in a blink of an eye. We started keeping track of this event in 2007 with 76 players, 66 in 2008, 66 in 2009, 92 in 2010, and 116 in 2011, 112 in 2012, 159 in 2013, 165 in 2014, and 169 in 2015, 150 in 2016, 162 in 2017, and 115 in 2018. What will 2019 bring?
Prize package:
Grand prize for each event is a Discraft merchandise package. Last years winner won a bag and eight new discs. Events are also encouraged to offer an optional cash side pot for those who wish to participate, which is divided proportionally among the number of aces and/or metal hits.
We have very unique prizes for not winning so be sure to post up if you will be providing a prize and for what the prize will be given for.
The MCCG will donate 1 prize for the 1st Ace Hit.
OH YEA: YOU MUST PREPAY TO BE SURE YOU ARE IN THE EVENT! less

You can use for the Ace Race one of your own discs however, it has to be a putter and it is the only disc you can use the entire round.
For Juniors and Ladies who cannot throw a putter 100', fear not, they can use another disc but again, that disc has to be used for the entire round.
Since we are attempting to still hold the event and have to improvise on the players packages, if you have already signed up but choose to not participate, feel free to send me an Inbox message and you will get a full refund.
This still sounds like a lot of fun! Will there still be prizes other than the gran prize for runner ups?
Usually we get plenty of donations we use for other prizes. In the past we have awarded prizes for 1st Ace, most metals without an Ace, person who drove the furthest, oldest, youngest, 1st female Ace, etc...
That's awesome. What's the cap for registration? I'm gonna see if I can drag my brother and girlfriend along.
The cap is loosely at 72 but it can be adjusted if necessary. I can say we will not be taking too many walk ups the day of because we will not have many extra towels.
SENT A CHECK OUT MONDAY FOR 3 ENTRIES... FORGOT TO LEAVE EMAIL INFO... SHOCKER5462@YAHOO
Got the check Brian for the 3 entries. Thank you for registering AND the email :-) !!
