Congrats to John Minicucci who survived running DGLO and Am Nats on back to back weekends. Once he gets done running his Firefighter league today he can relax on Tuesday and spend hours filling in PDGA reports. There is no rest for the weary.

I lost a bright green avenger and an orange xpress on the left side of the fairway at the corner. The express hit the tree on the corner and the avenger went just to the left of the tree on the corner and flew in deep. Both discs have my name and phone number on them. Will cover postage costs if we cant meet up to get them

Can't do Fri, but I will dedicate at least one full day Sat or Sun, possibly part of the other day as well.

John Minicuci June 4, 2013 at 10:34pm

Please let us know s soon as possible. With 144 players, their caddies, our staff, the PDGA, and miscellaneous people all around, it gets hectic around tournament central real fast.

Dwayne Kay June 6, 2013 at 9:43pm

John/Chris/Mark: I will be there to spot at 8AM Sat - all day for sure. I can also spot Sun as well... whatever hole you need me on.

John Minicuci June 6, 2013 at 10:34pm

$81 Entry. If your rating is currently 947 and you want to register, click here: http://www.sportdiscs.com/USADGC_reg.html

Chris Hanna May 23, 2013 at 10:39am

And DGLO?

John Minicuci May 23, 2013 at 4:10pm

At 947 you can either play in AM1 or Pro unless you are old enough for an age protected division like Masters. If Pro is your choice then the registration is $125. If you want to play in AM1 then it will cost $70. Here is the link to register for either one of these divisions: http://www.sportdiscs. ... more

Chris Hanna May 23, 2013 at 5:08pm

It says 185.00

John Minicuci May 23, 2013 at 10:58pm

I posted the incorrect price above. The link is correct and the price is $81.

Chris Hanna May 23, 2013 at 11:58pm

Ok looks like if everything works out ill be signing up for AMDGLO... Am I still ok to do so

John Minicuci May 24, 2013 at 1:11am

I assume you would be playing AM1 with your rating. You may be on a very short list of open spots. The Divisions are not available online now to sign up because Pool A and Pool B only had less than a handful of spots remaining. You are the 1st to contact me so if you want one of the remianing spots, I need you to make a decision and let me know asap.

Chris Hanna May 24, 2013 at 10:42am

Ok sounds great I could not afford the DGLO pro and I haven't cashed in any open tourney and would live a **** at the AM1 title

Chris Hanna May 24, 2013 at 10:43am

My apologies I meant like a shot not **** lol

Chris Hanna May 24, 2013 at 1:58pm

Got it taken care of thank you for the help signed up for DGLO pro

Chris Hanna May 24, 2013 at 4:27pm

Quick question off topic... Will there be live coverage of this event? Like discgolfplanet tv similar to the memorial coverage?

Chad Hutchison May 21, 2013 at 1:40am

I am pre reged just would like to know if I got in or do I need a win to get in

John Minicuci May 20, 2013 at 11:24pm

Did you register due to placing well in an event or by your rating being over 935?

Johnny Branstetter May 21, 2013 at 11:24am

I'm wondering the same thing. I registered based on my rating.

John Minicuci May 21, 2013 at 12:03pm

Either way, I will update the PDGA site when I get an updated list. Typically that is twice a week...

Chad Hutchison May 26, 2013 at 10:12pm
