AuGres 2016 & Disc Golf Scene - The Best

A GREAT TIME in AuGres with 20 players, thanks to all that came and played. Could the weather have been any more superior ? Congrats to Joe Caldwell and Chris DeRosier for both scoring 59 to record low scores for the day. Jason Mathe took the top points for the entire summer. Great job to all winners.

Congrats to Joe Caldwell and Chris DeRosier for both scoring 59 to record low scores for the day. Jason Mathe took the top points for the entire summer. Great job to all winners. Almost everyone walked away with some type of prize, thanks to a generous trunk load of contributions ranging from $150.00 cash added, meal gift certificates, grilling sets, kayak rentals and more.from the local businesses. An extreme thank you goes to Anytime Taxi, Northern Automotive, Ali's Up North, Lynch Produce, City of AuGres Riverfront Campground, Modern Craft Winery, Walkers Insurance and The City of AuGres Council, Mayor, City Manager and all of the office staff. The format we played was random draw doubles for 10 holes (1-9 & 20) and single play for 10 holes (10-19). Was it fun or not ? Did it work better or as well as playing 20 holes dubs and 20 holes as singles with lunch in between ?

If you have participated in the weekly random draw doubles or the Ace Race at Old Airport thanks for being a great supporter and you are invited to attend the Disc-Ciples Summer Peace Tour Finale at Old Airport DGC.

Here is the format for the day. We will pick partners as usual and then all teams will play holes 1 through 9 and hole 20 as a team. Once entering the woods at hole 10, ALL players will
then be playing individual and scoring on a new score card for holes 10 through 19. The total score for your first 10 holes as partners will be added to the 10 individually played holes to determine the finishing order. This should be fun.

In addition, if you take a look at the leader board on Disc Golf Scene you'll see that I have added a point system for each week that we had an official gather and turnout of 3 people or more. Winners got 5 points, then 4, 3, 2 & 1 for the respective finish. At year end, Jason Mathe was on top with 38 points followed closely by Alex Wilk & myself. Now you all remember the 2 disc prize package that was offered throughout play for a deuce on holes 3,9 & 20 ? So this Sunday these 3 top points scorers will be the only 3 playing for those 2 discs that were the deuce prize. Best finisher of the three will get first choice of the two discs, 2nd place takes remaining disc and 3rd place gets squat.

Tee off will be noon this coming Sunday the 25th, sign in by 11:45. Each player will be paying only $1.00 to play with all dollars going into the donation post for the course fund.
Additionally, we will have a $2.00 ace pool for that day, paid out with a CTP throw off on hole 7 if no ace is hit. I will also have a least one disc for a CTP. There are some players that I don't have an email for so please spread the word.



Payout will be the entire $120.00 Ace Pool and paid out to 8 spots.
1 - $30.00
2 - $25.00
3 - $20.00
4 - $15.00
5 - $10.00
6 - $10.00
7 - $5.00
8 - $5.00

Sunday Dubs is going Single this Sunday

Anyone and everyone is welcome to play a singles cali round this Sunday at Old Airport DGC, tee off at noon. $5.00 buy in with an optional $1.00 Ace Pool and $1.00 CTP hole for the day. Ace pool is at $70.00. For this cali round, if you hit an ace with a second throw, you'll only get 1/2 of the ace pool. A first shot ace takes it all. 5 players are having a shootout for one remaining Berth by playing one round of cali singles, all others joining in will just be for the payout, CTP and Ace Pool.

Sunday July 24

One Berth available Sunday for all that have paid $10.00 and played for the Berths. Any additional players will pay $10.00 for the option to play for the Berth. This covers you for this Sunday and next Sunday when once again, there will be a Berth for a prize. Additionally, $5.00 for doubles, $1.00 CTP and $1.00 Ace Pool optional.

Sunday - July 17th

This coming Sunday will be normal random draw doubles with the exception that players will have the option to buy into a chance to win a Berth to the Discraft Michigan State Championships in Ludington September 3-4. Here's how it will all shake out - PDGA Rules will be followed. Participants MUST decide and pay prior to the random draw.

This coming Sunday will be normal random draw doubles with the exception that players will have the option to buy into a chance to win a Berth to the Discraft Michigan State Championships in Ludington September 3-4. Here's how it will all shake out - PDGA Rules will be followed. Participants MUST decide and pay prior to the random draw. A minimum of 3 to 7 players are needed to pay an additional fee of $5.00 allowing you to play for a chance to win a Berth. With 8 players paying, an additional berth will be added (maximum of 2 berths regardless). If there is only 1 Berth available and the winning team has two paid into the Berth competition, both players will compete in a 9 hole shootout. If tied after 9 holes, they will continue starting again on hole one until a winner for the Berth is determined. If there are 2 Berths available, it could be possible for the second place finisher to get one of the Berths and possibly another 9 hole shootout would be necessary to decide the final winners. The normal doubles is $5.00 to play with $1.00 of that going into the donation box. There is an optional $1.00 accumulating ace pool and a weekly optional $1.00 CTP. So bottom line is $10.00 to play for the Berth and the days winning payout, optional $2.00 for Ace and CTP. Any questions, send my way and I'll do my best to find an answer or make adjustments if I've overlooked any possible scenario...
