Loved my first Ledgestone and thoroughly enjoyed the courses (MA70) I played My only suggestion would be to alternate groups within a pool for early tee times. The 70+ year old men had either 7:30 or 7:39 to 7:40 tee times all 3 days. I think it’s extremely unfair to penalised any one group and make them have that time slot for three days. It’s not conducive to fairness or good play the way it was done.
Thank you for the feedback. It wasn't intended to punish or be negative, but we will look at this in the future.
Funny... most big tournaments with tee times (GBO, Memorial, Etc.) the "older" folks always go early as we seem to be early risers anyway. I was shocked that MA55 and other near that age teed off around NOON each day and the kids got up early. I want to play as early as possible so the res ... more

I was shocked that MA55 and other near that age teed off around NOON each day and the kids got up early. I want to play as early as possible so the rest of the day can be spent watching pros or vacation... so I'd have gladly swapped NOON for early mornining every day. To each his own!
Yep, this MA40 has been loving it this year going out early and being done by noon. Ended up getting back to TN at 2AM monday morning with the noon start on Sunday
Ill take 730 am tee times all day every day
Ohio AMS did it where day 1 MA40 teed almost last... then reversed day 2 and were first in the AM. That was nice... done super early day 2 since day 2 was 1 round. Would have been nice to have had a bit of a shuffle in the times, but being i was around 1-2 each day it wasn't really a problem though.
We had some discussion about that in our division too (65+)..
In truth I like early too. Cooler, and left the rest of the day for whatever
Ha yeah, I think this discussion proves there is no right answer. I prefer to play in the morning to have a quicker round and beat the heat.
MA50 went out at noonish each day a morning or two would have been a welcome change from the noon day heat.
Playing in the morning and playing at 7:30 each day are two entirely different things.
Quite a big difference between playing early and starting at 7:30 all 3 days.
Oh yeah - bring on the noon-day heat! Test our disc golf game and our fitness/stamina. After all, we are athletes!
This 60 year old chose to play that division because I WANT to play early. Please DONT change it. Those of us old guys who play the big events, expect to play early. Want to play late, choose novice or rec or whatever non-aged group you qualify for.
