Does Pool C play flip city or west shore second round? Both are listed on the about page.

I see where the error is. I am almost certain it is flip 2nd round. I will double check in the morning

Please tell me we are not playing 20 holes at Leviathan... The 18 hole layout is good. That 1st alt is a really, really crappy hole and there is no need for us to play it or the next hole. Esp. with bumpy, lumpy natural tees. These 2 holes are not worthy of our State Championship. No need for them in this event.

we are in the process of making the Longs 24 holes- in the future these holes will be improved and have cement- cant do everything at once- we have to pay for EVERYTHING we do- we get no help with any improvements to our courses

OK. That sounds good. I totally understand the need for playing these holes if the pool size dictates the need. Widening of the 1st hole is really what needs to happen. There just needs to be a landing area and no hanging random branches in the fairway. And the tees needs to be marked. They were not last yr. Thanks for all that you do Jeff!

yep- that got missed- we are trying to make that a nice 24 hole course like all the others- just takes to much damn time!!
Travis tullis August 12, 2013 at 6:02pm
So do we play Saturday and Sunday or Sunday and Monday like the about page says? Little confused

Ok good that is what I had planned for and got on to check the updates and saw it was different in the schedule. Thanks for clearing it up.

Baymont Inn & Suites Ludington is where me and my wife will be staying.. Right in the middle of all the courses.. and just off the freeway.

Will the public library in Grand Rapids let me use their computers to register on-line?

I think I'm ready to travel to practice the courses set for the MS1 division, now that I see a new address given for Scottville. Clicking "get directions" will get you to church in Scottville; so, you need to clean-up the street address that appears on DGS's drop down box. That will put you near the marker for Riverside Park, which is a little north of two parking lot entrances (1 west, 1 east). I'll try each, as the usual satellite tee-pad images weren't visible on google maps.

Thanks Jeff. Disregard the Keep Out sign - that's funny. How about "Flying Discs" on a sign just below it.
Jeff Schwass
August 14, 2013 at 1:47pm
Yes it does say keep out! Ive corrected/added all street addresses to the courses- I would trust those but I did not put in those gps coor

I'm good to get to each course. Look for reg for LCQ if I don't get a berth. Much thanks.

Wade Grost will want to play Junior I. Does that mean he'll need to play the LCQ?
Jeff Schwass
July 31, 2013 at 11:50am
yes he will- this pool usually doesnt fill but he will need to at least sign up for lcq
Fred Vocino July 27, 2013 at 7:13am
It might help to improve the precision of the directions given for the courses. Mason Co. Park shows as Campground or Buttersville. West Shore shows as Ice Arena. Scotttville shows either middle of the street, isolated forest, or private front yard. I can place the first, ask-around for the second, but Scottville would be futile.

These were all given by the park/municipality- figured they were right- I better check em out
Justin Marsh July 26, 2013 at 3:37pm

Jason Brower July 25, 2013 at 5:01pm
When is the dedline for registration
Jacob Turner July 23, 2013 at 12:16am
I was wondering if there would be a MJ1 division or MJ2 is the first one
Jeff Schwass
July 24, 2013 at 11:20am
we usually run one divsion- got to have 3 to create that division- we will ask juniors as they sign up and if we can split it by age we will
Jacob Turner
July 24, 2013 at 11:32am
Ok because i am 19 (for the calender year) and was kind of hoping to play one MJ1 event before I no longer can.
Mike "The Giraffe" Rohloff July 22, 2013 at 1:01am
Was wondering how much the doubles are going to be on that Friday?
you will play your rating ad of aug 23. i will check all on yhe 24 th
So Keith are you saying anyone who is rated for am1 and registered for am2 will be moved up?
yep
This is a State Championship Tournament- if anyone signed up with the impression they wouldnt get bumped we will refund your reg if you wish
You may change divisions up til 4 pm on Fri Aug 30.
Players who have become ineligible for a division due to a ratings update may participate for two weeks following the update, provided they are pre-registered for the event in question, at the discretion of the Tournament Director.Aug 27 is 2 weeks after the Ratings update. So this dose not apply.+
I'm definitely not worried about it lol, I dropped from 892 to 890 and still playing am2!!
How can Jason worry about sandbagging claims when he intends to move-up?. Baggers hang back.
