MP40?

Ben Osborne   May 19, 2023 at 1:18am

They all dropped or jumped to MPO

Ashley Doby    May 18, 2023 at 8:32pm

Will FA1 have early tee times on Sunday? I figured women usually get the early times but just trying to plan for childcare that day.

Hey Ashley. I'll post estimated tee times for each division after registration closes tonight, but even those will be up in the air until after Saturday's rounds are complete. With that said, I plan for FA1 to be somewhere in the 9:00-10:00 time range.

Ashley Doby   May 18, 2023 at 9:01pm

Thanks! I appreciate it.

Steven Taylor    May 17, 2023 at 5:57pm

There is a big downed tree on fairway hole 6 Crossing. Completely blocked off

Tony Basini   May 17, 2023 at 6:05pm

Steven, thanks so much! This has been reported to the Crossing folks!

Ben Osborne   May 17, 2023 at 6:14pm

Thanks Steven and Tony!

Steven Taylor   May 17, 2023 at 6:48pm

Anytime thanks guys

If I'm on the waitlist, am I able to show up and still get in if there are no shows the day of the tournament's start?

Permalink
Ben Osborne   May 16, 2023 at 6:19pm

Correct. Show up to the course for the pool you're on the waitlist for and if someone isn't checked in by 8:30 spots will start going to the waitlisted players.

Hunter Rose    May 16, 2023 at 1:40am

is there any sort of estimated time ma1 will go out on sunday? like will it be morning lunch or afternoonish

Permalink
Ben Osborne   May 16, 2023 at 1:48am

I'll have estimated divisional tee times once registration closes, but around lunch is a decent guess right now.

Payton Semrad    May 15, 2023 at 11:18pm

What are the odds I get into the MA2 division if I register right now?

Permalink
Ben Osborne   May 15, 2023 at 11:44pm

50/50, either you do or you don't! Just kidding...it's really hard to say, some tournaments get a lot of drops in the days leading up to it and some get very few. I wouldn't be shocked to see enough drops for you to get in, but I also wouldn't say I expect it..

Payton Semrad   May 15, 2023 at 11:46pm

We get refunded if we don’t get in correct?

Ben Osborne   May 16, 2023 at 12:57am

Correct. With it being this close to the event I just changed the wait-list to $5 instead of full entry. If you get in you'll have to pay the difference, of course.

Ben Powers    May 15, 2023 at 11:14am

Hey Ben, I will unfortunately have to withdraw from this tournament. Do I need to do anything further than comment?

Permalink
Ben Osborne   May 15, 2023 at 1:00pm

Hey Ben, hate you won't make the event! I went ahead and manually processed your refund. For future notice, you can go in on DGS and withdraw/request a refund and that should speed things up for you!

Phil Aubel   May 15, 2023 at 10:00pm

Boooooooo!!!

Dave Tackett    May 15, 2023 at 12:07am

Ben, I saw the flags marking long #9-great hole!. Didn't see any flags for long 10. Will it be up by the big power stanchion on the right, near the road?

Permalink
Ben Osborne   May 15, 2023 at 12:44am

Hey Dave, glad you enjoyed the location for 9! The spot we landed on for hole 10 is down toward the woodline on the left. Follow the fairway and instead of going down into 10s normal green just keep walking straight along the woodline...pretty sure it's about a 400' shot from the short pad ... more

Landon Rominger   May 15, 2023 at 1:10am

When will the baskets be in place?

Ben Osborne   May 15, 2023 at 2:38am

We'll have them up Friday by lunch for practice.

Dave Tackett    May 2, 2023 at 12:46pm

For the Patriot modified jumble, it looks like holes 9, 10, and 15 have alternate pin locations. First I've heard of these, or just temp placements for the tourney? Will they be marked in advance for practice? Thanks

Sweet

Ben Osborne   May 4, 2023 at 1:10pm

Dave (and everyone else) - We scrapped plans for the alt basket on 15 so that hole will play from the shorts Sunday. 9 and 10 basket locations have been flagged and are awaiting approval from the park.

Dave Tackett   May 5, 2023 at 9:49pm

Those of us that don't throw the day before a tourney wouldn't hate the flags going up a bit sooner...

Brian Gunter    April 10, 2023 at 9:05pm

Didn't see the waitlist for MA2. Can I be moved to MA40 please.

Permalink
Ben Osborne   April 10, 2023 at 9:39pm

Hey Brian. MA40 shares the same wait-list as MA2, do you still want to move?

Anthony Pandoli    April 7, 2023 at 7:12pm

what is the likelihood of the capacity increasing to 5-man cards? my hopes aren't too high getting in from waitlist #12

Permalink
Ben Osborne   April 7, 2023 at 8:05pm

Hey Anthony. Unfortunately it's unlikely because custom player pack items had to be ordered in advance using the caps we had in place. However, I wouldn't be surprised at all if you got in from the #12 spot. It might be in the days leading up to the event, but from my experience seeing 12 drops wouldn't be out of the ordinary.

Anthony Pandoli   April 7, 2023 at 8:49pm

that makes sense, thanks for the response Ben, I’ll keep my fingers crossed!

Noah Ray    April 7, 2023 at 9:50am

if i'm waitlisted what are my chances? ;(

Permalink
Ben Osborne   April 7, 2023 at 4:16pm

It looks like you're #3 in the B Pool waitlist, so your chances are very strong. Be patient, it may take getting a little closer to the event, but in my experience I would be shocked if you don't get in.

Jacob Stoner   April 7, 2023 at 4:31pm

Let us hope

Wesley Wright    April 7, 2023 at 12:08am

Can you change my first name to Wes lolol

Permalink
Ben Osborne   April 7, 2023 at 12:11am

It looks like the PDGA has you listed as Wesley so you'd have to change it with them.

Wesley Wright   April 7, 2023 at 12:12am

I got it switched!

Hey there! How do I go about being a sponsor for your tournament?

Permalink
Ben Osborne   March 24, 2023 at 12:44pm

Hey Marc! If you're interested in sponsoring a hole and signing up early, that option will be available starting March 28 at 8pm. You'll sign up as you normally would but it will require the sponsorship be added in order to complete registration. If you want to talk sponsorships outside of that option, shoot me an email at [email redacted] please!

Matt Holman    March 15, 2023 at 3:18pm

We need Ma40 in A pools instead of the B!

Ben Osborne   March 15, 2023 at 3:38pm

Sounds like MP40 is calling your name lol....trying to have it split 72/72 and this seems to be the best way to split them up.

Jeremy Joyner    March 7, 2023 at 8:16pm

By "all star" do you mean all longs or will there be a specific set of tees?

Permalink
Ben Osborne   March 7, 2023 at 8:34pm

Hey Jeremy. The All-Star layouts are listed in the About section of the tournament on the main page here and in an image on the Pictures tab.

Jeremy Joyner   March 7, 2023 at 9:18pm
