Nate Heinold Jul 26, 2021 We did allow people to grab them on site, but we did take the rest of them to save for next year.

Monty Wonnacott Jul 26, 2021 That works too chances are ill sponsor a hole again. Thank you for the response!

Curtis Shriver Jul 26, 2021 Save mine and the book I wrote on it for next year. Great event. I have physical therapy near Nashville TN twice a week. I played CCR and drove home and then drove back for DGLO. We worth the drive.

Benjamin Szirony Does anybody know what the tick situation is on the three courses? Is it bad, or a non-issue? Thanks! Jul 22, 2021

John Ferguson Jul 22, 2021 I haven't found any at Kensington, but I wear long socks, spray and check myself. Do that and you should be alright.

Benjamin Szirony Jul 22, 2021 Thanks for the info and advice! Stopping on my way up to get some Deep Woods bug spray.

Nate Heinold Jul 22, 2021 The ticks have definitely calmed down.

Michael Wiseley I have to work Thursday and can’t make the check in I will make the tee time Friday is that ok? Jul 22, 2021

Kenneth Cross III Jul 22, 2021 Is there a late check-in or is 7pm the latest?

John Ferguson Jul 22, 2021 There’s a discraft tweet that says checkin till 9pm but I can’t confirm if that’s accurate.

Kenneth Rutowski Jul 22, 2021 Discraft posted a flyer 21 hours ago stating check in is 11am-9pm

Nate Heinold Jul 21, 2021 Yes and no to the first question. Own area to the second question.

Kat Witucki Will Saturday's dinner party at Holdens be outside / dog friendly?

I see registration is closed, will we be able to buy additional food tickets at the event? Jul 21, 2021

show 1 earlier comment

Nate Heinold Jul 21, 2021 The food is for players only. You can buy extra tickets for others at the event.

Jonathan Lee Jul 21, 2021 So caddy can't have food but if bought a ticket can still attend correct?

Nate Heinold Jul 21, 2021 Players get free food, if you bought a ticket that will be good for your caddy.

Mike Michalak do we know the order of tee off of the different divisions within pools / / for example Pool B is it MA60, MA50, then MA2 for order of tee off or some other order? / 1st tee off time is ? /Trying to plan my Friday based on tee off approx time / thanks Jul 21, 2021

Jacob Hawes Is check in on Thursday mandatory? Jul 21, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 21, 2021 Yes

Josiah Lonsway For those unaware of the two Black Locusts course which are called two different things, the north course is blue and the south is green. Jul 20, 2021

Drew "Orange Andy" Herron Jul 21, 2021 Best way I remembered it was that B-lue before G-reen, N-orth before S-outh.

Josiah Lonsway Jul 21, 2021 Lolol nice

Dustin Csokasy This is my first tournament I had a question about registering. I am in the player pool do I have to register in person on Thursday Jul 20, 2021

Dustin Csokasy Jul 20, 2021 And if so what is the latest time you can register

Mark Stephens Jul 20, 2021 Dustin, I think you mean check in. Here is a link to the schddule and it shows the check in times. https://dglo.net/schedule/

Dustin Csokasy Jul 20, 2021 Thank you and my comment had rookie written all over it I guess ????

Jonathan Lee Is there a specific reason why MA3 is playing Black Locust North from the long tees? Jul 20, 2021

show 1 earlier comment

Bohdan Pelekh Jul 20, 2021 Ma3 does play blue side from longs. Not sure what specific reason you're looking for, though.

Evan Lewis Jul 20, 2021 Yeah its only that 1 round, its the easier of the 3 courses as well. You will be fine!

Chris Trumbull Jul 20, 2021 there are only long Tee's on Kenso North for holes 1-3, 6-10, 12 and 18. most do not change much but length.

Timothy Beerbower If you are on the wait list should you go on Thursday to check in or just come Friday for tee times? Jul 20, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 20, 2021 You will be contacted via email

Michael Fisher #baaa I seen there is a spot open in am2. I was trying to move from am1 but it won't let me Jul 20, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 20, 2021 You should be able to edit your registration and change divisions.

Michael Fisher #baaa Jul 20, 2021 Would that put me on the waitlist?

Nate Heinold Jul 20, 2021 Not if we have spots on the list available.

Brian D Badge I am waitlisted but ordered discs with registration. If I don't get to play do I still get the discs and if so how? Jul 20, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 20, 2021 All of it would be refunded

Brian D Badge Jul 26, 2021 When do you expect refunds to be processed?

Kenneth Rutowski Do we need to bring anything with us when we check in? Jul 19, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 You do not need to bring anything.

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 Kids 12 and under are free.

Timothy Beerbower Nate should I show up at the beginning of tee times or at the end? Jul 19, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 If you are playing, you need to show up for your tee time.

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 Tee times will be posted on the PDGA.com results page for the event, probably tomorrow.

Ozzie Thoreson Everyone: BRING BUG SPRAY! Crazy out here Jul 19, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 The mosquitoes are not too bad at Toboggan.

Jason Riberas Jul 19, 2021 Maybe at the toboggan they're not bad, but over on both the other two courses they're horrible to deal with.

Ozzie Thoreson Jul 20, 2021 Oh good. I was worried about Eagle, Paul, and Ricky. I can’t tell you how freaking excited I am for this weekend!

Christopher Jacobs Id like to waitlist for MA3 please, happy to pay in advance should a spot open up but looks like I missed the reg window. PDGA # is 83930 Jul 19, 2021

Christopher Jacobs Jul 19, 2021 Id also play MA2 since theres no waitlist and a spot open in the pool

Christopher Jacobs Jul 20, 2021 Hey guys, can I be added to the Waitlist for MA3 or MA2? Should I just show up for a chance? Any guidance would be appreciated

Paul DISC-OR-DIE Holstein

I've read 3.04 of the dress code, and I assume "final round" only applies to tournaments that have special rounds after a cut (I.E. not the last round on Sunday). But just to be safe, I'll ask the q ... show more ›

John Ferguson Jul 19, 2021 I read the above in the rules. Are non-collared dry-fits/Cool-Max allowed?

Ozzie Thoreson Jul 19, 2021 The way I read it, dry fit with no collar (crew neck) are fine. Can you confirm that is correct, Nate?

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 That is correct. Dri-fits are fine.

Timothy Beerbower Well if I can get on the wait list for ma3 that would be awesome Jul 19, 2021

Timothy Beerbower So for ma3 I would show up to Black Locust Blue on the 22nd or the 23rd? Jul 19, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 There is no need for a waitlist person to check-in on Thursday since we don't even know if they get into the event.

Nate Heinold Jul 20, 2021 If you get in to the event from the waitlist, you will receive an email.

Jay B If one of the pools doesn’t fill will any of player caps within that pool be adjusted to allow waitlisted players in for those divisions with waitlisted players or are the caps written in blood Jul 19, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 Negative

Timothy Beerbower If there's a no-show the day of can someone join the tournament? Jul 19, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 If you are ready and waiting at hole one and there is no one else on the waitlist, yes.

Joel Szirony Jul 19, 2021 Probably worth signing up for the waitlist now just to save some sort of spot in line.

Donald Huff How long will the course be available after the tournament? Jul 19, 2021

Nate Heinold Jul 19, 2021 It will not be available after the event.
