Rob Adams It's often a CTP for league or casual but how'd it work for tie-breaking in those divisions where 1st and 2nd have the same final score in the tourney? Sep 27, 2021

Rob Adams Sep 27, 2021 Sorry Scott, I wasn't clear, I meant "CTP is often used to break ties" - was wondering how they were broken this weekend.
Rob Martin Sep 27, 2021 PDGA rules provide how the ties are to be broken, section 109 of competition manual.
Jerry Patterson Tee times are up for round 3!

James Barry After the tournament will all the lakes/ponds be raked for discs? Sep 24, 2021
Mario Ortiz Where can we get the players pack if we could not make it on the 23rd. My daughter has gymnastics on Thursdays. Sep 24, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 24, 2021 You can lick them up when you play Water Works or Wilbur Young, depending on your pool and division
TJ Thurman Sep 24, 2021
Player packs can be picked up starting Thursday at BKS Artisan Ale, Player Party. After that they wi ... show more ›

Tom Johnson Following up to make sure post seen Sep 23, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 23, 2021 Sorry, I missed this emails are better. I have you at 10:45, Hope that works
Tom Johnson Hello, sorry for late notice, if later tee time on Friday is possible, that would be great. Traveling in Sep 23, 2021
Iqbal Jehan Are there warm up areas at Heritage, Cliff, and Waterworks? I hope so ???? Sep 23, 2021

TJ Thurman Sep 23, 2021 Looking closer at Cliff Drive. There is a slight field near (39.113811547821044, -94.55250333552353) East Lookout Point & St. John's Avenue -- that could allow for some warm up drives.
Michael Krueger Sep 23, 2021
For Cliff Drive, I recommend warm up throws at Maple Park, about a half mile to the west at the corn ... show more ›
Michael Krueger Sep 23, 2021 Also, there is an uphill throw that can be made from the basketball courts near the basket for hole 4 in the KCWO 2021 layout.
Chris Neff I haven't played Heritage, from the U disc photos it looks like it's somewhat cart friendly? I've played Cliff drive and waterworks and I would call those cart possible but not cart friendly.. just trying to give a frame of reference. Sep 22, 2021
TJ Thurman Sep 23, 2021 Heritage is very cart friendly. Waterworks can be carted but it can get tiring. I would not recommend a cart at Cliff Drive. Holes 3 - Hole 7 are not fun with a cart.
Chris Neff Sep 23, 2021 Thank you!
TJ Thurman Can Ronald Lawson and I have similar (doesn't have to be exact) Tee Times for the 1st round? We tend to carpool together. If not, no biggie. Thanks! Sep 22, 2021
Michael Krueger Sep 22, 2021 noted
Bubba Suchanek Hello, I just sent a request for a later tee time. If it is to late I understand but I just learned about something very last minute tonight. Sep 22, 2021
Michael Krueger Sep 22, 2021 Noted.
Jerry Patterson Virtual Players meeting should happen around 715. You can find it here

Stephen Chalmers There's about a 90% chance I'll have to withdraw due to an ankle sprain. If I do, can I still come to the players' party on Thursday to pick up my players' pack since I'm sure it's past the deadline for a refund? Sep 20, 2021

Gary Lewis Are the Covid restrictions not allowing a caddy or friend to join my card. I have a brother who is traveling from out of town and my wife would like to join me for one round is that OK? Obviously, Covid is not transmitted outdoors like it is indoors Sep 20, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 20, 2021 Caddies are allowed for this event!
Michael Krueger Sep 21, 2021 But you're responsible for your caddy.
Anthony LaMonica Is there any way for me to get an earlier tee time on Friday? I'm playing MPO Sep 20, 2021
show 1 earlier comment
Anthony LaMonica Sep 21, 2021 I do not need a morning tee time luckily, just one of the earlier MPO cards would be perfect for my situation
Michael Krueger Sep 21, 2021 Hi Anthony, your request has been noted.
Michael Krueger Sep 21, 2021 We should be able to accommodate it.
Jimmy Blundell Completely understand if this can’t be done, but if there’s any chance Jeremy Frey and I could be put on the same card round 1 that’d be great! We will be going there together. If not, no worries whatsoever :) Sep 20, 2021
Michael Krueger Sep 21, 2021 If you revise your registration and add it to the notes, Jerry is more likely to see it.
Miles Lemke Looking for camping recommendations. I was looking at blue springs lake. Want to know pros and cons of that location or if there are better ones to look into. Sep 20, 2021
Michael Krueger Sep 21, 2021 I am not sure about camping. If you're on FB, you might want to join the Kansas City Disc Golf group and ask there.
Jerry Patterson Thursday night Check in and Player Party
September 23rd. At BKS Artisan Ale.
Grip bag raffle for all players that attend. Sep 19, 2021
Jayson W Sep 20, 2021 For check in on Thursday, do we need to bring our equipment (discs)?
Michael Krueger Sep 21, 2021 no

Heritage Park is set for the tournament. There are trash bags covering the baskets we won't be using, and those trash bags can be pulled off. Be sure to practice to the correct basket (long blue bas ... show more ›

Tourney staff, is there an alternate plan for players pack pick up on Friday or after? (Apologies if I missed this elsewhere). I won’t be able to make the Thursday afternoon checkin/players pa ... show more ›
Sep 17, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 17, 2021 Yes, you will be able to pick up your player pack on course..Water Works for A,B,D pool. Wilbur young for C and E pool
Rob Adams Sep 18, 2021 Jerry, Pool D is listed as playing Heritage, Bad Rock Creek, & Wilbur Young... is it Water Works for pack pickup?
Jerry Patterson Sep 18, 2021 Whoops, A, B, E pick up at Water Works. C , D , at Wilbur Young.
Jonathan Tebbe Is there a way to request a tee time for day 1? My work schedule has changed due to people quitting I will no longer have Friday off completely like planned but I could make a tee time at 1 or after. Otherwise I'll have to withdraw. Sep 17, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 17, 2021 Noted
Alex Mense Sep 18, 2021 If possible, I would like to play as early as possible on Friday for this same reason but I work the dinner shift all weekend :(
Josh Rice That’s pretty harsh Rob as you can tell he’s new to this. You never know someone’s circumstances as I was a little taken back when I saw that. I’m sure that made him feel much better man. We need to think before we post Sep 16, 2021
Calvin Kinsella Hi, unfortunately I had to withdraw and requested a refund, and only $88 of the $128 I paid was refunded. Is there a reason the remaining $40 was withheld—perhaps the quarter-zip pullover was already ordered? If that is the case, can I have a friend who is still attending pick that up for me? Sep 16, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 16, 2021 Calvin, you were refunded the extra items you purchased and 50% of your entry fee per PDGA rules.https://www.pdga.com/rules/competition-manual/103
Rob Johnson Do we have to go to player pack pickup if we are playing mp40? Can we just show up at our tee time on Friday and check in? Sep 16, 2021
Rob Adams Sep 16, 2021 TD replied earlier "Pro players do not get a players pack", so no, you don't have to go to player pack pickup, you just check-in at least 30 minutes prior to your tee time
Rob Johnson Sep 16, 2021 Yeah I know there is not a player pack for us but didn’t know if we needed to check in. Thanks for the help.
Jerry Patterson Sep 16, 2021 Yep just show up to your course 30 minutes ahead of time!
Roman Davis Sr. When will tee times be posted? Sep 16, 2021
Rob Adams Sep 16, 2021 The schedule is posted on the "About" page up top
Jerry Patterson Sep 16, 2021 Thanks Rob, Roman all the information for this event is in the about section.
Derek Metcalf Hoping to make it up to Liberty this weekend to play Bad Rock, but don't want to make the drive if the pin positions are not setup yet. Does anybody know if the pin positions at Bad Rock are in their KC Wide Open positions? Sep 16, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 16, 2021 They should be set by the end of the day Sunday.
Jerry Patterson Sep 16, 2021 I think, 4,5, 18 need to be moved yet.
Derek Metcalf Sep 16, 2021 sounds good. Thanks!
Kevin S Is it possible for Kevin Stevens and Kevin Herink to be on the same card for the first round of MA2? Sep 14, 2021
Rob Johnson Is it possible for me to switch divisions? Sep 13, 2021

Jerry Patterson Sep 13, 2021 Pro players do not get a players pack.
Jerry Patterson Sep 13, 2021 MP40 is not full.
Rob Johnson Sep 13, 2021 I swapped to mp40. Thanks! Looking forward to those courses and the challenge of moving up
Rob Johnson What’s the swap meet? How does one partake in that? Sep 13, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 13, 2021 Swap meet, show up with stuff you would like to sell, buy or trade. Everyone is welcome.
Eric Dochterman I need to withdraw from the tourney. Sep 12, 2021
Jerry Patterson Sep 13, 2021 Saw your email. Refund sent.
Sean Mael Hi, I am playing in MA3 and was wondering if I could play the first round with my Buddy James Kircher. If possible that would be awesome. If not I completely understand. Loved playing in the Flying Disc Classic earlier this season and am super excited for this tournament as well. Sep 11, 2021
Josh Rice That really really helps with heritage. Thank you!! Sep 3, 2021
Trevor Guilfoil Would it be possible for John MacDonald and I (Trevor Guilfoil) to be on the same card the first round? If not possible then I understand. -Thanks Sep 2, 2021
Michael Krueger Sep 2, 2021 If you're in the same division, then Jerry can try and do that. There are A LOT of moving parts when putting cards together, and sometimes those things can get overlooked.
Trevor Guilfoil Sep 19, 2021 Yes we are in the same division. Thanks again
