Greetings, All!

We filled up the event! Jazzed to see the stoke and support for the return of the Discraft Ace Race.

Tomorrow's Schedule:

8:00am-9:00am - Player check-in and final players pack pickups @ the Creekside Pavillion.
9:00 am - Brief players meeting to address any questions!
9:15 am - Shotgun start - Pick your own cards - Up to 5 Players per card!

Play Round 1!

Following Play for Rd. 1 - Turn in your scorecards to the TD for Round 1!

Once the last card comes in, we will take a brief (<1hr) break for folks to get refreshed, grab a bite, use the restrooms, etc.

I'm assuming Round 1 will take between 2 and 3 hours, but it could be quicker.

Round 2 - Same Cards as Round 1 - will begin at the time announced onn DGscene after round 1 and also emailed to you as an update.

Play round 2!

Turn in scorecards and we will calculate the winner - and present the Trophy (Superfoil Ace Race Champion disc!)

Caddy Book:

There are NO MANDOS to worry about - I have set holes up to have natural mandos / protection that forces creative shots:)

The RED PADS marked in the caddy book are the traditional Creekside Pads and are just there to provide you reference to find the Ace Race pads.

The Ace Race Pads are ALL Flagged and painted with PINK FLAGS.

CTPs:
CTPs will be in play for BOTH ROUNDS - do NOT move them after round 1.
If you did not opt in for CTP's, you are eligible for EVERY CTP except for hole 15 - which is a $50 gift card to ARSLC.
If you did NOT opt in for CTP's, you may do so tomorrow @ check in.

CTP Prizes will be available immediately following round 2.

ACE POT:
The Ace Pot is at $310 dollars for this event! 
If you did NOT opt in for the ace pot, you may do so tomorrow @ check in.

The Ace Pot can be paid out via PayPal / Venmo / or Cash

Thanks so much, and we will see you tomorrow!

Greetings All,

For starters - thanks for signing up for this event! The 2008 Ace Race was the first event I ever played in Disc Golf - so it has a special place in my heart - and I was excited to learn that Discraft was bringing it back for 2024.

A few small updates:

1. Players packs will be available for pickup day-of @ the Creekside Pavillion... but they will ALSO be available for pickup TOMORROW and FRIDAY from 10am-7pm at Another Round Salt Lake City. We're located at 6092 S 900 E, Murray, UT 84121.

2. The layout will be all aceable positions. We will be playing all 18 holes at Creekside, with some "temp" pads set up on holes where acing from the tee-pad is ... improbable. The goal of this event is simply to hit aces - so expect some fun, creative shots... but short ones! I'll send out a caddy book on Friday - I want this event to be mostly a "surprise" in terms of layout to give everybody an equal shot.

3. There will be 2 rounds - and timing for round 2 will be dependent on when we all finish round 1! We'll take a quick break to grab food (if needed) and then head out for a second round!

4. This will be a "choose your own card" event and we will use paper scorecards. 5 tops will be just fine as this is a "throw and go" event. Scoring will be as follows: Aces = 25, Chain Hits = 10, Metal (not chains) hits = 5, misses = 0, but taking a CTP = 2. So... the HIGHER your score, the better!

5. There will be CTP's on every hole!

6. The winner will be the person who hits the most aces! If there is a tie - we will use the "score" as the tiebreaker.

Can't wait for this - should be loads of fun!

Cheers,

Ben

Jazzed for this weekend. Sending you all an email about it - but - tomorrow AND Friday you are welcome to come pick up your players packs at Another Round SLC - anytime from 10am-7pm is a-ok!

I'll be sending out a little "caddy book" on Friday. This is going to be a super casual, very fun event and I'm stoked that we have the turnout!
