May be a dumb question, but can I assume check in will be wed before opening ceremonies? I just don't see it anywhere.

Is MP 50 accepting a player or not?

Joe Douglass   May 14, 2021 at 12:23pm

That pool is currently full with a waitlist.

Hey guys I’m looking for a host for the week for just me. Any help would be much appreciated. PM me please Thank you!

Will the courses be open for practice on the Wed of the opening ceremonies?

Steve Ganz   May 11, 2021 at 11:37am

Per PDGA Tour Standards, courses are required to be set up and available for practice no less than 3 days in advance of the start of the event.

Joe Douglass   May 11, 2021 at 1:45pm

Yes, like Steve said, the courses will available for practice all week.

Rick Bates   May 11, 2021 at 11:52pm

Thanks

What are the cuts that are made for the final round?

Permalink
Joe Douglass   April 27, 2021 at 8:32pm

Per PDGA rules the cut will at a minimum be at the money line. We are allowed to cut more and that is an option that could be subject to change but the current plan is to cut on the money line.

Meg Sapp   May 11, 2021 at 6:24pm

What about for Am divisions which are trophy only?

Joe Douglass   May 14, 2021 at 3:48pm

The cut line would be approximately 40 percent for those.

Damon Culver    April 11, 2021 at 2:36am

I was in town this morning to play. Toughed out a couple rounds in the monsoon, but it did prompt curiosity on how things will be arranged if the same kind of rainfall occurs during or before the event. Harmony Bends was not playable this morning as I expected, but there were also a few holes at Albert Oakland Lower where we could not play the entire hole due to not being able to cross. Are there plan B's for this? Secondary question would be when the pin placements for each course will be known.

And I have no idea on the pin placements. :)

Joe Douglass   April 11, 2021 at 9:18pm

Pretty much what Chappie said. We have contingency plans but it is difficult to explain what all the different options are. We have had tourneys at Oakland for almost 40 years now so we can move placements or throw holes out to accomodate a flash flood or wait it out depending on the scenario. H ... more

Damon Culver   April 12, 2021 at 10:12pm

Thanks. Thoroughly enjoy the courses there (even in the nasty conditions). Looking forward to it.

John Strifler    March 31, 2021 at 9:03pm

Have a chance to be in Columbia in early May - will the tees for the courses be known for MA60 division by then? Thanks!

Joe Douglass   April 11, 2021 at 9:19pm

Probably wont be announced by early May.

Daniel Whitlock    February 28, 2021 at 10:35pm

Thought I would add here for those like myself that are unfamiliar with the courses. GK Pro and CCDG have the 2018 Mid America Open on youtube which includes all three parks just not AO Upper.

keith johnson    February 9, 2021 at 12:26am

Sorry to bother you guys but I’m curious if the about,schedule and PDGA links are going to be updated with 2021 information soon so I can book my flights. Thanks in advance for your reply Keith

The proposed schedule is at the following link https://www.pdga.com/files/2021_pdga_usm_v1_schedule_only.png

Joe Douglass   February 9, 2021 at 4:43pm

Originally we planned to have some early bird activities the weekend before and those details have not been decided yet but I am sure we will have something over labor day weekend for anyone that comes early, probably doubles or flex starts.

keith johnson   February 9, 2021 at 11:42pm

Thanks for that info but I meant on THIS Dgscene page where I keep checking. :)

ron simpson    February 2, 2021 at 9:31pm

One more thing, when you describe Albert Oakland as upper and lower, on the course page they are listed as front and back. Which is which?

inquiring minds want to know, lol.

Joe Douglass   February 5, 2021 at 2:37pm

Yeah there is a lot of local slang that is used to describe those courses. On the city maps they are descibed as upper course and lower course. Upper is also referred to as Front or Top. Lower is often referred to as Bottom or Back, I apologize for the confusing terminology but it is very had to break the local habit of calling them by the slang terms!

ron simpson   February 5, 2021 at 5:01pm

no problem, I just like to look up the reviews, to get a little insight into what the course is like. Thx for responding.

ron simpson    February 2, 2021 at 9:17pm

Will there be a pdf version of a players handbook? Just looking for additional information, course addresses, scorecards with course par, tournament check in, time and location, final cut numbers? Jw.

Joe Douglass   February 2, 2021 at 9:34pm

Absolutely. We are working on it as we make plans for covid etc. Harmony Bends will be in the default layout with par 68, the pad will depend on your division and this information will be posted soon. For oakland bottom course the par is usually around 56. For oakland upper course, it is usually ... more

What’s the new refund info? Want to register, but working through an injury that will decide my tournament fate. Thanks.

Great question, just updated it now.

Kathy “Katnip” Hardyman   January 31, 2021 at 1:41am

Thanks, appreciate it!

Eric Dochterman    January 30, 2021 at 8:15pm

The logo for this year needs a mask over last years date and the new date on the mask!

Meh... would prefer not to be reminded of covid when I see it lol

Randy Osborn    January 30, 2021 at 3:00pm

I'm trying to complete my registration for MP65, entered my info and PDGA #287 and it still says my registration is incomplete. I don't see what's missing. Can you advise?

[member not found]   January 30, 2021 at 3:07pm

I see it's the registered official test. I'll do that.

Jim Gaughran    January 30, 2021 at 7:00am

Autofill error and my inattention has left me fully paid and registered for MA60, AND fully paid and waitlisted #2 in MA65. I want to play MA65. Can I hold onto my MA60 spot until I see if I get into MA65 from the waitlist?

Permalink
Joe Douglass   January 30, 2021 at 4:06pm

You are now in off the waitlist on MA65 and I processed the refund for MA60,

Jim Gaughran   January 30, 2021 at 10:32pm

YOU are amazing. And fast. Name anything you want from the West Coast.

Joe Douglass   February 1, 2021 at 8:32pm

lol no worries, just seeing everyone have a good time here is good enough for me

Ron Pittman    January 30, 2021 at 3:08am

Well. In my haste I signed up for pro65 instead of am 65. Can you move me?

Joe Douglass   January 30, 2021 at 4:03pm

Sure thing.

mike sellers    January 30, 2021 at 2:14am

oh I was under the impression that if you previously played in a major and had cert you could just reup before event. Not before reg. Oh cause that makes a difference somehow..

William Struhar    January 30, 2021 at 2:07am

I didn’t get an email in advance (as promised) telling me how to get my 20% discount from playing 2 years ago, and I didn’t see how to activate it during registration.

I would like that info too, searched my email box for it and couldn't find it.

Wes Steer   January 31, 2021 at 2:48pm

I'm already registered, let me know how to get a refund for the discount.

William Struhar   January 31, 2021 at 8:54pm

Thanks, Joe. I did sign up — didn’t want to miss the tournament.
