The official report has been submitted. Please let me know of any errors or corrections to be made.

Thank you all for coming out. The club worked hard to put on a good event and get the course ready. I'm really proud of the community rallying to help Cass Benton become a better disc golf course.

If you have any feedback about the event please let us know. I know we weren't perfect out there so I need to hear your opinions so we can learn and be better. Again, thank you for play ... more

Thanks for running the event! Course looked great and everything seemed to run smoothly. The circle one marker "whiskers" are an awesome touch!

Monty Wonnacott   May 23, 2022 at 1:25pm

The only thing I would suggest is hole 12 making just the creek OB, rest casual and maybe just regular basket. It caused such a backup for people having to retee 5 inches infront of the tee pad.

Kyle Cser   May 23, 2022 at 2:00pm

This year has been bad for that hole and the swamp. I will do a better job of providing a more fair OB line next event, thank you for bringing that up.

There will be painted lines. If you are touching grass on the in bound side of the line you are safe.

Ryan Traud   May 21, 2022 at 2:24pm

hole 2 down the hill/in the trees isnt ob?

Kyle Cser   May 21, 2022 at 2:44pm

Ryan- that is correct. The only OB on 2 is the bike path

Kyle Cser    Sticky May 17, 2022 at 4:10pm

I just published tee groups and set a tee time at 9:15am for all groups.

Check in will end at 9am.

Groups are subject to change based on no shows. Everyone is paid in full but it does still happen every event.

I uploaded a more descriptive image of the island hole 19.

Hole Rules:
"Any throw from the Tee must come-to-rest on the Island Green to be able to mark on the Island Green. Throws from the Tee that come-to-rest OB, must proceed to the Drop Zone with a penalty throw. All other throws use normal OB rules."

Please read the above paragraph carefully.

Example, I lay up short of the road which is in bounds. My next shot goes over the island and lands OB. I would use regular OB ru ... more

There will be no formal players meeting. All course instructions will be posted here and sent via email to each player. The day of the event when you arrive please check in at the pavilion so we know you're there. Tee time and hole assignments will be posted the day before at the latest. That will only change in the event of no shows.

Tomorrow the club is going to have a few members out on the course cleaning up some fairways. If you would like to join us we will be out there starting around noon. Bring some gloves! Hope to see some of you there.

We are adding hole 19 to this event. An open downhill shot landing on an island green. An image of the hole is posted in the pictures section if you are unfamiliar. This also adds 4 more player spots which have already been filled from wait listed players.

Each player will receive a free sub coupon thanks to a sponsorship from Jimmy Johns. Big thanks to Rich who has supported all of our events!

YES! A win for everyone.

Kyle Cser    Sticky April 29, 2022 at 12:32am

Now that the event has filled I have enabled free waitlist entries. If you register for the waitlist and get into the event you will have until 10 days prior to the event to pay the division fee. If you do not pay the fee by that date you will be moved back to the waitlist.

I added a picture of the champ pin on hole 12 to help for those who are unfamiliar with the course. There's also course maps for long and short layouts on UDisc if you go to this link https://udisc.com/courses/cass-benton-hills-9hkZ/map

Some quick updates. We now have enough plastic on hand to provide every amateur a player pack disc. Choice of 1 disc between many molds of Discraft or MVP. Also to provide separation on ratings between divisions MA2 will play one round of long tees + champ basket.

Did anyone find a red flick during the tournament? Cash reward for return

Kyle Cser   May 28, 2022 at 1:54pm

Only one disc was turned in during the event and it was claimed shortly after. Hope you get your disc back

Darren Harper   May 28, 2022 at 8:22pm

i might have one if in need later.

John Ferguson    May 23, 2022 at 1:04am

Great tournament TD’s. I had a great time and it was a well run and impressive tournament. Please have another this year ????????

Appreciate it. Another sanctioned event may happen but we have other unsanctioned events on the club page here.

Kurtis F    May 22, 2022 at 8:04pm

Saw a disc about 45 feet up in a tree 30 feet before the pin on hole 4. Might be from this tourney.

What if there is severe weather that restricts play?

John Ferguson   May 22, 2022 at 12:57am

Weather took a turn. Think we may have lucked out.

Kyle Cser   May 22, 2022 at 1:11am

John is right, we should be clear for take of tomorrow. However in terms of severe weather only lightning will stop play entirely. Otherwise we play on.

Where is the overfill parking at once all the spots fill? Just along the side of the road?

Do you plan on blocking any spots off near the champ basket to avoid car hits....or should we just plan on getting there early to park away from 12? thanks! looking forward to the event!!

Kyle Cser   May 19, 2022 at 9:21pm

The OB line will be painted such that the cars shouldn't interfere with any lie. We can't stop anyone from sailing one into the parking lot though. There's substantial parking available up and down the road so you won't be forced to park there.

Bill Smedley   May 20, 2022 at 7:39pm

Thanks!
