Jb elam   November 11, 2023 at 2:15am

Robert Hansen   November 11, 2023 at 4:19am

Just issued refunds!

Ben Wieties    November 10, 2023 at 4:03pm

I really hope I'm never put in the position to play on a card with some of these aggressively toxic keyboard warriors.

I see a whole lot of complaining from people who waited until the absolute last minute to try and sign up. Registration has been open for months and it was not hard to get in. I hope y'all get in but have some respect for the TD and the amount of time and work he's put in and over the top accomodations he's already made if you want to see this event happen again in the future.

Well stated Mr. Leary! Taking on a TD role is not an easy challenge and we should all be greatful we have so many tournament offerings and options in our area. Thanks Dan for the comment and thanks to Robert for bringing the Highland Open back!

You will receive an email the moment you move up the waitlist. Or you will receive an email that you have been refunded.

So who just got in ma3 ????

Bradley Bennett    November 9, 2023 at 3:02am

Dont register me for a tournament that is already full!! Didnt ask to be on a waitlist that will never happen. Not going to pay a handling fee to be on a waitlist. This isnt freaking Ledgestone.

Brandon Pyell   November 9, 2023 at 3:18am

I thought the post was pretty clear on refunds will be on Friday if you don’t get in.. hope you get in!

Bradley Bennett   November 9, 2023 at 1:20pm

Thx Brandon. Im complaining about the handling fee. I didnt ask to be on a no hope waitlist in exchange for a 10% "handling" fee. Waitlist should be an option after the field is full.

Tom gravat    November 9, 2023 at 2:07am

If they don’t open it up Rockford has a tournament same day

????????????????????

So hard to checkout with discgolf scene going having to figure away to get from PayPal

Robert Hansen    November 7, 2023 at 5:26pm

As there have been a couple drops, including the entire waitlist ¯_(ツ)_/¯, due to popular demand, I will re-open registration. Registration will open for 1 hour, Wednesday night at 7:00. Spots will be first come, first serve. No more spots will be added after. If spots do not fill in that hour, registration will close and no more players will be added. Players that are on the waitlist will be refunded the night before the tournament if they do not get added to the event.

I think it’s a $1.34 fee that DiscGolfScene takes

Aren Dow   November 10, 2023 at 2:58am

Robert was nice to open the event back up and give people a chance to register again. It looks like he even dropped out of playing to allow one more person a chance to play. Continuing to complain about less than a $2 fee to someone who volunteers their time and energy to run an event - an event that takes way more time to set up because it’s a temp course - is frankly ridiculous.

If ratings from October raised someones pdga rating above the cutoff, could a player be moved to a different division?

Lol once the new ratings came out I messaged Robert to change me to ma3. I'm sure I'll see you next year in ma3. Good luck this Saturday man.

Michael Fry   November 8, 2023 at 1:35am

Hey good luck to you as well! And at the space race!

Matt W.   November 8, 2023 at 1:48am

Thanks man.
