When we were playing hole 4 today Jason you had said you were going to change it to a par 4, is that accurate still or has that been revoked? Thanks

It will be a par 4. I just haven't changed it yet.

Will you have anything posted on who qualified for the putting challenge?

Jason Wilder   July 21 at 3:17am

Yes

If the cash line is 9 players but 10 make it through with ties, does that mean last place won't cash or do you adjust the payouts to pay all that make the cut? Thanks Jason.

In the case of a tie for last cash, the payout is split evenly between all tied players.

Hey Jason, I aced hole 8 at Bethel yesterday and didn't make the cut, can I get paid without being present?

Thank you

Jason Wilder   July 24 at 11:13pm

Actually, I do not show you as being in the Ace Pool, so there will be no payout unfortunately.

Kirk ovitt   July 26 at 1:52pm

Any idea when the pdga will update the points for this tourney?

Jeff Yanda    July 19 at 5:57pm

Question: I saw earlier that you stated the brookview course would be open for practice today. I arrived at brookview and the course has no idea about having the course open for practice. Please provide a schedule when the course is prepared for practice.

"Hey will Brookview be available to practice before Sunday? Reply · Permalink · Follow this post Jason Wilder July 8 at 8:43pm The course will be available this Friday. You can pay greens fee, or register for the flex start happening that day. There is also a Doubles Event on Sunday this weekend. But that is it."

Jeff Yanda   July 20 at 1:28am

This message. I misread and thought it was meant for this Friday. My apologies.

Jason Wilder   July 21 at 3:17am

No worries. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't putting wrong info out there

willy t    July 18 at 10:59pm

Curious if the ma2 cut line got changed? I see the payout and hence making the cut as top 25% vs 45%

Jason Wilder   July 19 at 2:42am

see email to players

willy t   July 19 at 3:05am

Email only mentions payment, I’m curious if the top 45% from ams will play Brookview?

Jason Wilder   July 19 at 4:25am

yes

James Connor    July 18 at 4:12pm

Am the last waitlister - does a spot have to open in my division to come off waitlist, or can I fill an opening in another? Would gladly play MA1, MA2, MP40 or MPO. Thanks!

Jason Wilder   July 18 at 5:20pm

I may have a solution. I will report back ASAP

Jason Wilder   July 18 at 7:11pm

You are in and your tee time is 8:50AM at Bethel for Friday

James Connor   July 18 at 7:21pm

THANK YOU!!!

willy t    July 17 at 2:48pm

Follow up about course layout, what layout is bethel currently in? If it’s not in the tournament layout yet will it be changed and if so when?

Permalink
Jason Wilder   July 17 at 7:38pm

It is in tourney layout now

Jason Green    July 16 at 5:55pm

Is the payout structure for this event pretty standard around here? Reason I ask is I've never seen 1st place get $58 with such a large field, and dollar increments down through the payout spots (MA1).
Either way, thanks for running the tourney! Should be a good time

Jason Wilder   July 16 at 7:41pm

No. This event is unique in a few ways. AM players receive a solid player pack, that is almost equal to the value of the entry fee. Players will also have lunch provided free of charge at Kaposia on the day they play it. If you make the cut, you will also have lunch provided at Brookview on Sunday. ... more

Jason Wilder   July 17 at 12:13am

Given that we are at the TRUE AMATUER EVENT threshold, another option we might consider in the future is reducing the number of spots paid out so the payouts can be bigger.

Jason Green   July 17 at 6:47am

Got it. Thanks for the explanation!

willy t    July 16 at 12:22am

Are the courses in their respective layouts?

Permalink
Jason Wilder   July 16 at 3:01am

Hole 18 at Kaposia is a temp pin and will not be in until Friday AM

Jason Wilder   July 16 at 3:01am

Hole 9 will be in the Xtra Long ASAP (but due to legal issues, may not be able to be in until Friday AM

Edward Oakes    July 15 at 8:05pm

I know you have a lot to keep track of already, but would prefer an earlier tee time within the MA1 group on Friday if at all possible.

Brenna Bryant    July 15 at 4:06pm

Hi Jason! Looking to practice bethel tomorrow. Do you know what layout fpo will be using?

Thanks ,Jason!

Jason Wilder   July 15 at 7:10pm

Morgan, FPO, FA1/FA2 are all playing the same. FA40 and FA3 will be playing a different layout at each course.

Morgan Neset   July 15 at 11:07pm

Thank you!

Shayne Medellin    July 15 at 3:18pm

Hey, Jason!
Will the discs found at yesterday's doubles be at Twin Town this weekend?

Thanks

Jason Wilder   July 15 at 3:48pm

Yes.

Jason Wilder   July 15 at 3:48pm

at least the ones that were turned in to me.

Jake Moening    July 15 at 4:18am

Apologies if this was said elsewhere but I couldn't find it. What layout is being played at Kaposia?

Jason Wilder   July 15 at 12:18pm

The Twin Town Layout in UDisc

Kyle Kitzman    July 13 at 4:08am

I’ve never been on a waitlist before. Will I automatically be in the tournament if enough people withdraw? Will I be notified?
How often do people withdraw/how good would my chances be of being able to play this event?

Permalink
Nate Christenson   July 13 at 4:23am

It will notify you if you are moved off of the waitlist. If you only paid a partial amount to hold your spot then it will ask you to pay the rest of the amount to get moved, if you paid full amount you do not have to do anything else once moved. You are only 3rd on waitlist so you have a decent chance at getting off the list but you never know.

Jason Wilder   July 13 at 3:52pm

I will be posting tee times by Wednesday night. So we should know by then.

Sam Butler    July 12 at 3:59pm

I'm the only one on the MA1 waitlist, but I'm #2. Is that just a weird DGS thing?

Permalink
Sam Butler   July 12 at 5:21pm

Nvm, just got in

Jonathan Kleitz    July 11 at 7:22pm

I saw that Tee Times were posted a few days ago on your comment below. Can you point me in the right direction on where to find those? Sorry, first tournament through DGS

Permalink
Jason Wilder   July 11 at 8:51pm

Tee times have NOT been posted anywhere. I’m going to be posting the time windows each group will be teeing so people can plan around it

Jonathan Kleitz   July 11 at 9:16pm

Gotcha, thanks for the response!

Lora Murtha    July 10 at 9:14pm

FA40 isn't assigned a pool. Am I correct in assuming we are B pool?

Permalink
Jason Wilder   July 10 at 11:23pm

Not sure what you mean ????. Hit refresh.

Lora Murtha   July 11 at 3:55pm

It wasn't there before! Amanda asked me too and when I looked there wasn't anything for FA40. Silly Disc golf scene not updating

Jason Wilder   July 11 at 4:26pm

:P

Monica Castaldi    July 10 at 7:44pm

It has conflicting courses in two different places. It shows starting at Bethel for one group and then the split in pools A and B are different. Which is correct?

Daniel Bounds    July 8 at 9:01pm

Hey Jason, know you have a ton of work already and can't accommodate everyone but figured I would ask anyways. Hoping for a later tee time on Friday due to a lack of PTO from just starting a new job. If not, no worries and appreciate any help/adjustments. Thanks!
