Alright everybody, this has gotten out of hand with the name calling and is no longer relevant to the tournament. I am turning comments off for the time being. If you have any questions, email me at t ... show more ›

Josh Engelhart This isn't the only event I've ever seen increase player caps or the first event I've ever seen a course change for.

Being a TD is unpaid and obviously thankless.

If you're salty and you know it shed a tear

Sure is. Pretty common last name. I see you’re donating to the cause of the MPO field. Have fun wi ... show more ›
tony reiss Apr 9 And I’ve never someone beat dead horse on dgscene like you in all my years… give it a rest or get a refund ….
Josh Engelhart Apr 9 I've got a 50% cash rate in MPO. You still won't win with Brad and Tyler out. I'd see you in the parking lot but we won't be there at the same time
Tristan Beachy If you’re playing at OU and aren’t familiar with the course I made a course preview Ohio University - Chillicothe

TD, you really need to stop accepting new players and cap it right now. And have everyone but the pros play like lake at the very least. Add some temp holes at pike or something if you need to. Makin ... show more ›

Super cool! I was "lucky" enough to get into MPO last minute. Now I don't have to drive my 5 mpg RV 45 min away to a crap course, when I booked a campsite at Paint Creek weeks ago. There are many peop ... show more ›

Dan Bayless Apr 9 Your lucky made many screwed, sorry to say.
Steven Cox Apr 9 You also just donated to the already stacked open field
Steven Cox Apr 9 I never said he was
Steve Behnke It says my refund is being processed, do I need to resign up for this? Apr 9
Andrew Hypes Apr 9 No, I got you on my end, you're all good
Peter Lueschen Andrew, I never received an email about players packs from you. Is there something I'm missing here? I saw you mentioned below from March 23rd comments you would be reaching out to AMs Apr 9

Hey Peter, I'd only be reaching out to you if you ordered the Discraft discs at registration which y ... show more ›

Steven Cox I sure hope a decent amount of that added cash still goes to the age protected pros given they got f*cked last minute. Apr 9
Andrew Hypes Apr 9 I'll have official payouts out either late tonight or early tomorrow but right now age protected pros will be getting about 25% of the added cash or just under $2,000 added
Steve Behnke Andrew, please disregard my withdrawal request. I will be able to play. Apr 9
Andrew Hypes Apr 9 Thank you brother
Ronald C Godbey Well, having never been to the OU Chillicothe course, I need better directions than what is offered. Where on the campus do we check in? And where do we park? Apr 9
DJ Justice Apr 9 It pulled up for me on Waze and also Google Maps off UDisc under the full name: Ohio University Chillicothe Disc Golf Course.
Andrew Hypes Apr 9 I'll have detailed directions for all courses in the caddy book that will be out either tonight or early tomorrow
Dan Bayless
How many MPO were added? If you’re doing this for them, then you should do something for the other Pros. The older Pros are the ones who have laid the groundwork for disc golf and tournaments. Can y ... show more ›

It looks like a significant amount. This tournament was capped and had a waitlist. I want to say it ... show more ›
Steven Cox Apr 9 *make up for screwing us over. 30% at least. Which still doesn’t help those who don’t cash.
Dan Bayless Apr 9 That’s really a kick in the face . We’re second class citizens/players.
David diehl Could you move me to MPO??
I changed it on disc golf scene but not sure if it went thru
Apr 9
Andrew Fish Once this whole tournament wraps up, someone get in touch with me and let me know if I should consider playing it in future. It seems like a massacre, so even if it's an A-tier I'm not going to drive into a bad experience. Apr 9
Andrew Harshbarger Apr 9
It’s ran super smoothly in the past. This years issue is mainly from losing one of the courses we� ... show more ›
Luke McKinnes Apr 9 I’ve also had a smooth experience in the past. I haven’t been confused about anything thus far, but agree that the course change is so late is unacceptable.
Steven Cox Apr 9 Don’t worry if ya play PRO everything will be catered to you
Ray Engel I'm confused... where is MP60 playing? I already had a room booked..... Apr 9
Andrew Harshbarger Apr 9 Your first two rounds on Saturday will be played at the OU Chillicothe course and on Sunday you’ll play paint creek with a tee time
Luke McKinnes Apr 9
Taken from the about page: Non age-protected Pros will play all 3 rounds at Paint Creek. MA1/FA1/ ... show more ›

The schedule should never have been changed this late and IF you did have to change it why wouldn't the MA3, MA4, juniors, Etc. go to the OU course? Thats a putt putt course with most holes around 200 ... show more ›

Hey everyone, I am very sorry that my communication on where different divisions would play was so poor. No excuses, I was too vague and I messed up. MPO is playing all 3 rounds at Paint Creek. MA ... show more ›

Luke McKinnes Apr 9 I believe Andrew means including. The typo seems to be that last sentence regarding the final round and it should say Paint creek instead of pike lake.
Clinton Pelfrey Apr 9 Honestly you should send an email out. Not everyone checks dg scene.
Adrian Morales Apr 9 Def send an email I had no idea, have to bow out. Sent a refund request
Ozgur Mert Bro!?! Apr 8
Steven Cox
This is absolute bush league. Apparently a bunch of added slots to the pros and the age protected pros move to some dumpy course far away. I booked an Airbnb close to paint creek and now I have to dri ... show more ›

Dan Bayless Apr 8 where are you finding this info?
Steven Cox Apr 8 Its been updated on the layout Dan. Its still kind of hard to read but you'll be playing OU saturday then tee time at paint creek sunday
Pete Caldwell
I found my registration confirmation and it clearly showed three rounds at Paint Creek. Changing courses this late in the process is a real pain for people to have long drives from the west or made l ... show more ›

Ray Engel Apr 9 The same here. I booked a room for 2 nights months ago. No communication on the change to us. I only found out about it by reading this thread today.
Pete Caldwell Did something change recently on the courses for age protected divisions? I could have sworn we were playing all three rounds at Paint Creek. Apr 8
Rick Duffus Last year I believe there was a food truck at Pike Lake. Will this be the case for in between rounds this year? Apr 8
Andrew Hypes Apr 8 No, the trucks weren't thrilled with their sales figures last year so I shelved that idea
Jake Gneiting
What are the chances I get in ma2 on the waitlist, with either more spots/people dropping.
Apr 7
Andrew Hypes Apr 8 You're good man
Ethan Owens Curious if pins are in the event positions. Noticed two changes from last year being 21 in the short and 14 in the long. Apr 7
Clinton Pelfrey Apr 8 I'm in charge of moving baskets. If needed to I can move them back, Andrew lmk
Ethan Owens Apr 8 Personally I don't mind 14s move but I'd vote for 21 in the long.
Kevin Fodrey Just curious, as it was mentioned in a few places that $7,500 would be the minimum added this year. I know you mentioned we would have more added cash than last year, which was $10k. Just curious if there is more than 7.5 and it just hasn’t been updated. Apr 7
Andrew Hypes Apr 7
I'll have official payouts publshed probably on Wednesday but between $7.5k and $8k is looking likel ... show more ›
Kevin Fodrey Apr 8 No I totally get it. I also TD events and I know the work you put in! Thanks for all your hard work! Still a fat pot!
Steven Tackett MA3 player here 2 hour drive. Should I sign up and risk the waitlist? Thanks Apr 7
Andrew Hypes Apr 7 Just responded to your email. Since you're in a lower division you'll get in immediately.
Luke McKinnes Anyone know how the drainage is at these pike lake and paint creek? Was hoping to play one or both before the event. Apr 4
Clinton Pelfrey Apr 5 Paint isn't horrible, start on hole 6 and you'll be fine.
Clinton Pelfrey Apr 5 Pike is pretty unsafe wet
Josh Turner sorry to bother, but if possible can I be moved to mpo. Apr 4

Josh Turner Apr 4 I know but there’s people on the waitlist so i wanna gurantee i still get a spot, don’t wanna move to mpo and then someone fill my spot in Ma1, then not be able to play. I appreciate your input.
Andrew Hypes Apr 4 Sorry it took me a second to get back to you. You're all good.
Josh Turner Apr 4 Thank you brotha
Andrew Hypes
Hey there folks, If you're currently on the waitlist, you'll be coming off very shortly. If you haven't signed up yet, no guarantees but we can probably make you work too, doubly so if you're in M ... show more ›

Clinton Pelfrey Mar 3 Start on 6 play threw then get muddy or just skip 2,3,4 they're all pretty muddy
Joshua Grueser Any suggestions on full hookup campgrounds in the area for my motorhome? Jan 31

Andrew Hypes Jan 31 MA1/MA2/Age Protected = OUC
Andrew Hypes Jan 31 Everything else = Pike Lake
