**Player Meeting**
Welcome to the 2022 March Mush at Sleepy Hollow State Park. Brought to you by Rip It Grip and sponsored by Discraft and Great Lakes Disc.
First off thank everyone for coming out and playing this years feature event.

There will NOT be live scoring for this event because of not having phone signal on the course. We will be doing paper score cards which we are not passing around between the card. One person will record the entire round and card mates are encouraged to do a ... more

Here’s is fly over for all the holes... it’s from the Ichabod Crane Open... a couple years ago.

Philip “Flip” Balger Scott February 23, 2022 at 9:04am

Enjoyed my yearly viewing. Always a fun watch. “It’s a case of French-frying when you needed to pizza”..

Hello day 1!

How is the course?

Sincerely, day 2.

Larry Dalimonte March 12, 2022 at 6:27pm

Bit of a struggle here today. Air temp is very cold and the wind is pretty wicked most of the time. Most of the mud is either under the snow or semi firm from the cold. Tomorrow the wind will be slightly calmer and given it will be much warmer I would expect the course to be far more sloppy and wet than it is currently.

Drake Evans March 12, 2022 at 9:24pm

Thanks for the insight!

Derrick Andrews March 12, 2022 at 12:18pm

Car is dead this morning won’t be able to make it

Sancho Valdez March 12, 2022 at 5:45am

Can we show up day of to ennter this tournament?

Alex Moser March 12, 2022 at 12:18pm

Yes you can

Lukas smith March 12, 2022 at 2:01am

I will be unable to attend the tournament. I cannot withdraw through my phone so I’m writing a comment through here, I’m withdrawing from the tournament. Good luck to all players

Alex Moser March 12, 2022 at 2:52am

Ok

Steve Muchmore March 11, 2022 at 11:44pm

Do we have a final decision on whether or not ribbons will be allowed/will be necessary?

Alex Moser March 11, 2022 at 11:56pm

You can use ribbons if you want too, there’s a little snow but shouldn’t cause anyone to loose a disc.

Steve Muchmore March 12, 2022 at 1:23am

Thanks, no ribbon it is

Alex Moser March 11, 2022 at 1:47am

Reminder per PDGA rules for all B-tiers and above, participants must have a current PDGA membership.

Jason Shively March 9, 2022 at 12:01am

How’s the condition of the course? Ice/snow? Mud?

Gene Harris March 9, 2022 at 1:05am

I was out there today. No ice. Most of the ground is covered with a dusting of snow, I expect it'll melt tomorrow. There's tons of mud and there'll probably be more in the next couple days. Who knows if it'll freeze with Saturday's high in the 20's. Great idea to be ready for mud!

Alex Moser March 9, 2022 at 1:29pm

The course is playable, we also have multiple bales of straw and hay being delivered this week to spread out in the extremely muddy areas.

Tanner P March 5, 2022 at 10:31pm

Why so many people playing in divisions they shouldn’t. Isn’t950 plus open

Conrad Budzynski March 6, 2022 at 12:11am

Three people in AM1 are above 950. Is that really "so many".

Trevor Owen March 6, 2022 at 8:14pm

AM1 doesn't have a rating cap. You could be 1000+ and still play AM1 if you choose to.

Alex Moser March 7, 2022 at 3:09pm

Trevor is correct. Am1 doesn’t have a rating cap, there for any rated player can play Am1 unless it’s an A-tier or they are over 970 and registered as a Pro.

Francisco Espinoza February 26, 2022 at 3:58am

Is the layout in the video, the layout for the tourney?

Alex Moser February 26, 2022 at 4:53am

Yes

Philip “Flip” Balger Scott February 26, 2022 at 2:46pm

The prominent fairway tree featured during the fly over of #12’s fairway is no longer there.

Conrad Budzynski February 11, 2022 at 1:06pm

What’s the snow pile up look like? Also, pdga rules don’t let us put anything on the discs to find them in the snow correct?

Joe Rutkowski February 11, 2022 at 1:07pm

Usually it's TD discretion as to whether you can add chalk or ribbon...

Craig Clingan February 11, 2022 at 1:54pm

According to https://www.pdga.com/rules/official-rules-disc-golf/81301, "D. When night or snow play has been announced by the Director, players are allowed to add a material or device to assist in finding the disc."

Alex Moser February 11, 2022 at 2:48pm

There’s a good bit built up. I’ll make an official announcement closer to the date.

Mike Stump - OldStump February 3, 2022 at 5:33pm

No true age protected divisions?

Craig Clingan February 3, 2022 at 6:06pm

Looks like we have to play with the "kids". :)

Josh Russell February 3, 2022 at 6:25pm

I love playing the kids!

Alex Moser February 3, 2022 at 6:39pm

I wasn’t planning on adding another age division, with years past there has been higher demand for other divisions. And besides beat up on the kids and put them in time out with their nose in the corner.

Tim Sylvain February 3, 2022 at 7:20pm

Anyone who thinks there is no difference between being 60 and being 40 must be young. Many times we old guys have to make a decision between playing with "youngsters" in MA40 or "youngsters" where our rating puts us. Often times we choose not to play if the appropriate divisions aren't offered.

Josh Russell February 3, 2022 at 9:06pm

I meant am3 when I said playing the kids. am40 is the youngsters.

Alex Moser February 3, 2022 at 9:12pm

20 years is a long time frame in any world, I never doubted that, But with the demand for age protected 50+ is very low, I didn’t offer it. With this being a event for berths id like to offer it to the divisions with the most interest. This was discussed as a club and the route we decided to go with for this event. I offer all divisions in the other events I run later in the year.

Philip “Flip” Balger Scott February 4, 2022 at 8:11am

^^^This man is legit I tell you !!!

Philip “Flip” Balger Scott February 4, 2022 at 8:13am

47 and feeling the vibes here. I’m still playing with the kids, youngsters rarely have more than a card themselves so I don’t play with them much. I plan to be a steady steely old dude when I make the granola

Joe Levell February 4, 2022 at 11:06pm

Not being able to play (physically) the past few years & having lots of time to follow online. I've noticed the "older" groups getting bigger & bigger lately.

Joe Levell February 4, 2022 at 11:08pm

I'm just saying - can't go by past years to get a solid gauge.

Joe Levell February 4, 2022 at 11:10pm

Thanks for all you guys do Alex!!

Jeff Dutka January 29, 2022 at 3:32pm

Hey Alex! Will there be any merch available with the event logo?

Alex Moser January 29, 2022 at 5:01pm

Hey Jeff, sorry we are unable to get a custom run of disc this year. So there will not be anything with the stamp on it. Sorry

Mike Siuda January 12, 2022 at 1:49pm

$75 for all divisions (pro and AM) for a 1 day B tier event?

Alex Moser January 12, 2022 at 2:36pm

Yes you are correct. All MDGO events have gone up. Deductions are $33 for Player pack/ park fee and $42 go towards payouts per person . Except for Open divisions.

Jim Fries January 14, 2022 at 5:12pm

Its 2022 people. The sport is growing and so should the entry fees. Look at the price of beef!

Jim Fries January 14, 2022 at 5:13pm

Its a great way to weed out the people that aren't as serious. Imo

Alex Moser January 11, 2022 at 4:47pm

Berth INCREASE UPDATE. We will now have 10 berths each day for states!

Anthony Wasyl January 10, 2022 at 7:36pm

Are circles going to be painted?

show all 7 comments

Alex Moser January 10, 2022 at 8:34pm

Yes sir... C1 and OB will be painted along with DZ for hole B and 11

Craig Clingan January 10, 2022 at 9:30pm

Hopefully, not painting on the snow! :) I'd be more concerned about shoveled and salted tee pads for March in Michigan (although I do live "up north").

Alex Moser January 11, 2022 at 3:03am

As long as there isn’t a huge snow storm or nasty weather the day before we should be good. I’ll be up there on Friday painting and scrapping and salting tee pads.

Craig Clingan January 11, 2022 at 2:05pm

Thank you, sir!

Tim Sylvain February 3, 2022 at 7:24pm

Craig, Mt. Pleasant isn't "up north". :)

Craig Clingan February 4, 2022 at 6:50pm

According to recent temps, I'm pretty sure it's part of the Arctic Circle.

Philip “Flip” Balger Scott February 5, 2022 at 4:51pm

Past the marsh crossing IS up north imo

Matthew Heminger December 9, 2021 at 6:13pm

Any chance of there being an MA4/FA4?

show all 4 comments

Alex Moser December 9, 2021 at 8:29pm

As of right now, we are not offering AM4 at B-tier events.

Matthew Heminger December 10, 2021 at 2:33am

Thank you for the response! Why the change from last year?

Alex Moser December 10, 2021 at 3:44pm

With the PDGA making New rules that all players have to have a valid PDGA membership to play in b-tiers or higher (a lot of AM4 don’t have memberships yet) as well as the demand for more spots in higher divisions we have decided to not have Am4 at this event.

Matthew Heminger December 10, 2021 at 3:49pm

Thank you very much for the clarity and insight into that!
