AKDGC TD and schedule

Brian Gutzwiller will be the TD for States. It will be a two day event like 2013. Two rounds at Kincaid, two rounds at PC. A three day event with Hilltop, Kincaid, and PC is the best format to designate our divisional state champions. However, it is more fiscally responsible to do a two day event. When we are more unified as a membership to supporting a three day event and can raise sponsors for it, then we can discuss it at that time.

Brian will need our support to prepare for AKDGC '15. I will be general work days on our Google calendar and preparing sign up lists. Til further notice....

my 2 cents..... Kincaid is the only Championship level course in Alaska. Meaning cement and alternate tee pads. As well as alternate pin locations. Again please take this as my opinion. I am not trying to get take a jab at anyone or pass judgment on any groups of people. Just an opinion.

Adam Klein   April 10, 2015 at 8:54pm

Thank you for the input Thad. We shall see where this takes us...haha. And I think with some good alternate pin locations at PC and some work, we can up PC's game a bit. At least that's a goal to shoot for.

Thad Murgatroyd   April 11, 2015 at 1:32am

Last time I checked Fly pads are Majors approved and according to PDGA standards it's fine . We are adding more pins this year and Terra Walks are in our future . I know it was intended as a jab but it's cool because your opinion only matters to you .

Thad Murgatroyd   April 11, 2015 at 2:30pm

According to your criteria of "Championship Level Course" Kincaid fails as well unless you know of a Pro pad for Hole 15 I have never seen in 7 years of playing there

Thad Gunther   April 11, 2015 at 5:52pm

Murgatroyd, I said that was my opinion. I think that my opinion does matters. I don't like the "bully" tone of your response. Why don't we put this to rest..... $100 Thad vs Thad at PC! you bring your whole bag, I'll bring only bunch of putters. Loser pays up and doesn't post on the scene for a year!

Thad Gunther   April 11, 2015 at 10:42pm

scratch that last part about not posting to the scene and lets make it positive! Instead 8 hours course work . winners course choice! that way DG wins either way!

Thad Murgatroyd   April 11, 2015 at 11:55pm

I will do 8 hrs either way but same bet you putters me my bag but at Hilltop Red Course. If your truly a superior player a AM Master should be easy pickings for you on such a simple course as Hilltop . I won't be installing it til atleast May buti'm game

Thad Murgatroyd   April 12, 2015 at 12:39am

We can nominate a 2nd to assure the person does the 8 hrs of course work . You will do yours at either the Pretzel or Gist courses and me at either Kincaid , PC or ever Alcantra . It's not realistic to drive 10 hrs to work 8 so we will have this bet benefit our local courses.

Jake Haskin   April 12, 2015 at 3:32am

Lemme know when this happens, I really wanna watch...

Thad Gunther   April 13, 2015 at 11:06pm

I will clarify. I challenge you to around a PC I throw Putters you through whatever you want. $100 bet. We both do 8 hours volunteer work at Kincaid. Do you accept?

Luke Monyer   April 14, 2015 at 1:06am

Haha funny as shot

Luke Monyer   April 14, 2015 at 1:07am

****

Luke Monyer   April 14, 2015 at 1:08am

I wanna watch now or play

Thad Murgatroyd   April 14, 2015 at 1:58pm

I have been advised to not take your bet but thanks for the offer.

Jake Haskin   April 14, 2015 at 3:13pm

Oh dang, scared him away.

Will Harrison   April 17, 2015 at 11:35pm

I don't think thad is scared, I think he feels baited. I'm sure he would play a strictly volunteer hours bet.

Rick Cramer   April 18, 2015 at 12:04am

I donu2019t think anyone was scared away, however maybe they just now see a bigger picture for dics golf here in Alaska. To waste one valuable free time and effort on anything other than something positive is not in the best interest of the disc golf community or in achieving the fun one experiences ... more

Jake Haskin   April 18, 2015 at 12:31am

I think he did get scared off, cause Thad has challenged many people to play him for money (myself included) and someone finally accepted and he backed down. That's the only part of this I am seeing. Everyone has their opinions and there's no pint arguin about em cause neither are gonna change. But the fact someone called him out from behind the keyboard and he backed down, is awesome

Adam Klein   April 18, 2015 at 4:31am

Ok, that's enough! I'd appreciate if you'd stop poking the beehive Jake. Gunther expressed an opinion and Murgatroyd defended a course that he is passionate about and has spent many of his personal hours improving it. Far more then any of our members. Personality issues aside, let ... more

Will Harrison   April 18, 2015 at 6:15am

Thanks Adam.

Jake Haskin   April 18, 2015 at 8:57am

not exactly sure how i became the bad guy in all this, but hey, go team hilltop

Adam Klein   April 18, 2015 at 2:54pm

Not my intention to make you the bad guy Jake. Just ready for this thread to be dead.
