GYROscope #4: Ghost of Franklinstein

Scott Webb Wonderful event! Thank you Dec 2, 2021

Brian C Thanks for hosting a great tournament! This was my first ever, and won't be my last. Thanks also to Scott and Chris for being great round-mates! Nov 19, 2021

Mike Sullivan Lots of stuff going on in terms of lane closures. I will probably be there more like 12:45 Nov 19, 2021

Mike Sullivan All: check in will be at the pavilion near the baseball fields. Use the baseball field parking lot.

I have a pair of hand warmers for each player. Nov 18, 2021

Charlie Tupitza Does anyone know the distance from the tee on the over the lake hole to the shore?
How far do we need to throw to stay out of the water.
I will be throwing left handed as my right arm is sore. Nov 12, 2021

Mike Sullivan Nov 12, 2021 We will not be throwing over water.

Charlie Tupitza Nov 12, 2021 Dang

Charlie Tupitza Nov 17, 2021 I may have to cancel do to work

Mike Sullivan Hi, everyone! Because the sun will set at 4:53, we are going to tee off at 1:30pm. I've also shortened the layout for the daytime round. This might mean we have a long dinner break.

It will likely be cold; please plan to dress in layers! Nov 8, 2021

Rob Stark Since the date of this event moved, do you want to re-open sign up? as it stands, it's closed for registration Oct 28, 2021

Mike Sullivan Oct 28, 2021 Done!

Mike Foxwell Hey Mike,
Unfortunately I need to withdraw, I have the Shenandoah Shag the next morning on the 20th so I would be worthless if I tried to do both LOL Oct 27, 2021

Mike Sullivan

All; The weather outlook has gone from "yuck" to "yikes." Potential for lightning is there basically for the entire event, which is both unsafe and could lead to a wet, cold, incomplete tournament ... show more ›

Mike Foxwell Oct 27, 2021 Dang what a bummer!! But definitely get it and it's the safe move

Scott King Oct 29, 2021 Sweet, now I can make it. Good warmup for Shag!

Steve Ganz Oct 29, 2021 Thanks, dude. It's nasty out there.

Justin Laughlin I need to drop from this event, sorry Fred. Oct 27, 2021

Danny Cherlow Layouts look awesome. Wonder if 12 will actually be a pond on Friday ! Oct 27, 2021

Mike Sullivan Oct 27, 2021 Water rises rapidly there, so it's definitely a concern.

Kevin moore I thought it was white to yellow day and red to yellow Night? Are you guys posting play pack pics? :) Oct 27, 2021

Scott King Nov 18, 2021 Is the “day round” layout on UDisc accurate?

Scott King Nov 18, 2021 Asking because it’s different than the paper scorecard posted as a pic here

Mike Sullivan Nov 18, 2021 The tournament is not using UDisc. The paper scorecard is correct.

Mike Sullivan Layouts are up. Please note that there will be much less OB than usual. Oct 27, 2021

Mike Foxwell Oct 27, 2021 less OB....I like the sound of that!!????

Danny Cherlow Oct 27, 2021 Will be lot safer on some of those field holes woohoo

Scott King Could I withdraw please? A family commitment came up, sorry. Oct 26, 2021

Charlie Tupitza I and others are excited about this event! Thanks
I see a good chance for rain and hope we don’t cut this off or short!
It has been an unreal summer with little rain.
Bringing extra cloths rain gear and discs towels!
No such thing as bad weather just bad cloths. ;) Oct 24, 2021

Mike Sullivan Oct 24, 2021 Given the pattern of past rain forecasts this year, I expect the precipitation to be pushed into the weekend. That said, unless there's lightning, we're playing.

Charlie Tupitza Oct 26, 2021 Looking better

Charlie Tupitza Oct 26, 2021 wind dying down at noon

Blake Bennett a friend of mine is probably gonna caddie for me for this event, would we have to pay extra for dinner or just have to get something else? or will there be extra food there. i know it's a long way out so don't need an answer this soon too if you don't know. Sep 26, 2021

Mike Sullivan Sep 26, 2021 There will be enough food for your caddie.

Chris Bleiler Excited for the tournament, but have never played Franklin. I have heard there is construction that will change some of the holes. Is there an updated layout on Udisc I can use when I go to practice?

Jarnail Bajwa Oct 26, 2021 Is there a set layout yet? Would like to get in some practice soon. Thanks, Sully!

Mike Sullivan Oct 26, 2021 The layouts for both day and glow rounds are on UDisc.

Mike Sullivan Oct 26, 2021 Email later tonight with details. We will be playing very minimal OB.

Jarnail Bajwa Will both rounds be rated? Aug 31, 2021

Mike Sullivan Aug 31, 2021 Yes, both rounds will be rated. The second round will be on a short layout with discs and baskets illuminated.

Andrew Hibl This sounds like fun! The registration date keeps changing, which makes me worry that this might not happen.

Is this going to happen or should we sign up for Raptors Roost Open before it fills up? Aug 26, 2021

Andrew Hibl Aug 28, 2021 We can not make Friday, unfortunately

Mike Sullivan Aug 28, 2021 Yep, I had planned to make the announcement on Monday, prior to registration opening on Tuesday. Thanks for the reminder!

Mike Sullivan Aug 28, 2021 I'm sorry that you can't make it. I was not excited to move the tournament, but it's the nature of a multi-use park that sometimes you run into unavoidable conflicts.
