Monday October 25th last minute bag tag league at Clarksville's course

I added to the schedule a last-minute bag tag day on Monday October 25th at 4:30pm at Clarksville's Airport Park. Twice thru the nine holes. No trophies, no ace pot, no CTP's. The winner will claim the official course record.

New Clarksville course

As soon as the new Clarksville course at Airport Park is complete with tee signs, we will hold a bag tag challenge. May make it a Monday evening thing twice thru the 9 holes. That way someone will have bragging rights to the course record on discgolfscene!

Keep checking here for details on the course: http://www.bluegrassdiscgolf.org/Clarksville.html

*2 rounds, with an hour break in between. We will need the hour break for this beast of a course!
*Everyone will be playing the long pads on Holes 7 and 8. Go in the water on your drive, go to short pad and throw with stroke penalty.
*If you do not want to throw over the water, go straight to the short pad. Pretend you threw in the water and you are throwing your third shot (2nd shot with stroke penalty).
*All water is OB. Playground is OB. Shelter Houses are OB. On or over an payment is OB. Walking trail that comes into play on 4, 5, 6, 7, and 18; on or over is OB.
*Special trophy for the top Women's player of the year.
*Don't forget the new start time, 10:00 AM.
*Spread the word. Not everyone gets these emails or has access to a computer.

The very last thing we will do is an Ace Pot throw-off if no one hits an ace! If you have multiple entries in the Ace Pot, you get multiple throws.

Great turnout and a great time today at Oak Grove.

I want to appologize to the two guys that didn't get bag tags. Supply couldn't meet demand today! I will post the results Monday night, and post the location and time of the October bag tag league next week.

Hopkinsville Bag Tag Update

Despite the hot weather, 13 players showed up for the Hopkinsville Bag Tag Challenge, including 3 new players. Brian Deloe successfully defended his gold #5 tag. Ben Bohl was the only man to give him a challenge. Those Monster drinks may need to be tested for Performance Enhancing Drugs!
The biggest battle was for third place between Greg McAtee, Stan Kubik, Lee Ervin, and John Bal. John Bal ended up mopping up on some CTP awards.
Brian Deloe hit a skip ace on hole #6 and cashed $10.
See everyone at the next bag tag challenge at War Memorial Park!

Next challenge is July 25th at North Drive Park in Hopkinsville, KY.
