Are spectators allowed to bring a dog to the park?

No

Just signed up for MA2 waitlist, but since I turn 40 this year, I'm eligible for MA40. Is it possible to be on a waitlist for two divisions to increase my chances of playing? Would I just have to register again for a second waitlist?

Nate Heinold   June 25, 2021 at 2:33pm

You can register for the other waitlist as well.

Brian Schoening    June 23, 2021 at 5:55pm

I am sure it's been asked, but I didn't see it in the first couple pages of comments. I have a caddy, will they have to purchase passes to be able to spectate the pros?

Mark Stephens   June 23, 2021 at 6:12pm

Only you will get a pass in your player pack to spectate. Anyone else interested to watch would need to purchase a pass.

Brian Schoening   June 23, 2021 at 6:20pm

awesome, thanks

Brad Herr    June 23, 2021 at 1:24pm

Do you think waitlist #7 in ma40 will make it in?

Permalink
Rob Dahmen   June 23, 2021 at 1:29pm

You're now #6, and there is no #3, so really your #5 now!

Mark Stephens   June 23, 2021 at 6:13pm

Brad, it is impossible for staff to forecast if people in the event or on the waitlist ahead of you will withdraw allowing you to get in.

Tim Sylvain   June 24, 2021 at 12:48am

What happened to your crystal ball?

Rob Brower    June 21, 2021 at 9:38pm

My rating has moved to 935. I am classified as Professional. So,I know that as a professional playing AM, I can NOT Play AM40 any more.
Do I have to go on the waitlist to switch to MPO or AM1???

What about MP40????? Can I switch to MP40???? And….. would I have to go to the back of the waitlist if I switched??

Rob Dahmen   June 22, 2021 at 11:20am

There are no Age Protected Pro divisions for DGLO this year. So MP40 is not an option. At least the waitlist for MA1 is only at 2 now. So not that deep for a 124 person field.

Nate Heinold   June 22, 2021 at 1:22pm

We sent you a message, I would recommend using your DGS confirmation email to switch to the waitlist for MA1 for DGLO.

Gary Lassila    June 15, 2021 at 8:04pm

Does the VIP badge include admission into the Kensington metropark? (sorry if this was already answered)

Nate Heinold   June 15, 2021 at 8:10pm

Negative

David Hath    June 15, 2021 at 12:59pm

Will we be able to pay an additional fee for caddies to attend the players party/dinner on Saturday night?

No age limit, and yes, you would need to add a meal ticket.

David Hath   June 15, 2021 at 2:24pm

thank you

Chris Conk   June 15, 2021 at 2:32pm

Thanks. Nate.

John Ferguson    June 12, 2021 at 8:26pm

Is there spotters on these courses? More specifically for MA4?

Permalink
Chris Trumbull   June 12, 2021 at 8:27pm

Very few holes would require a spotter.

Jim Jean   June 12, 2021 at 9:46pm

On the Locust courses, if you feel you need a spotter, send someone from your card. But Chris is right, won’t need one for most of the holes.

Jay B   June 12, 2021 at 11:42pm

If you’re throwing far enough in Ma4 to need a spotter then you’re playing the wrong division lol

ron simpson    June 11, 2021 at 12:25pm

Hey guys - I hope someone more local can help me, on DGLO it lists the am courses as Black Locust Green & Blue, but on the scene page, they are listed as North & South.

baskets are blue on North and green on south UDisc shows which is which.

Drew "Orange Andy" Herron   June 14, 2021 at 11:52am

Easy way to remember B come before G, N before S. B=N, G=S.

ron simpson   June 14, 2021 at 12:03pm

Sry all, I have to give it to Shelley, basket color helps. Thx.

Travis gentry    June 11, 2021 at 1:44am

Do we have a pass for the tobagon in june

Permalink
Mark Stephens   June 11, 2021 at 3:12am

The pass is to spectate the pro event.

Collin Bell    June 10, 2021 at 5:17pm

I wanted to check and verify that there were no additional dress code requirements for the MA3 division. I read the PDGA rules and it says a Dri-fit shirt is allowed, but not t-shirts and ultimately the TD's call. I can't find anything in the comments or on the site. Looking forward to it!

Nate Heinold   June 10, 2021 at 10:41pm

We follow the PDGA's guidelines for A Tiers.

Sean Newland   June 25, 2021 at 5:37pm

I suggest bringing a few shirt options. I have had TD’s threaten to Stroke/DQ me for a dry fit that didn’t have a “polo-style collar” because a player complained, I assumed because I was throwing well.

Sean Newland   June 25, 2021 at 5:38pm

Not saying this will be the case here, but it has happened to me before on more than 1 occasion

Michael Fisher #baaa    June 10, 2021 at 3:55pm

Anyone from am2 looking to move up to am1?

Permalink

Jacob Czarnik    June 8, 2021 at 8:04pm

Hey everyone I’ve been looking for about a month for someone to switch with in MA2. I am currently registered in MA3 but I am too highly rated to play in that division. Please let me know if you can trade.

How does trading spots work? I'm signed up for MA2 but would like to move down to MA3.

Jacob Czarnik   June 26, 2021 at 2:01am

You have to find someone to trade with you from ma3

Scott Adkins   June 26, 2021 at 3:50am

There are still a few guys rated over 900 in MA3... I am sure they will be looking to do a switch.

Blake Webber    June 8, 2021 at 12:15pm

Due to the ratings update today I got bumped from 908 to 940, which forces me out of Am2. I am currently registered for AM2, is there anyone in AM1 that would be willing to switch me?

Permalink
Michael Fisher #baaa   June 8, 2021 at 2:14pm

I will of you haven't found someone yet

ryan minikey    June 8, 2021 at 5:24am

This might be a long shot but I am currently signed up for am3 but I just got a rating update putting me at 906 and forcing me out of am3, is anyone willing or wanting to switch divisions with me ?

Permalink
Xavier G   June 8, 2021 at 6:09am

I will mine went down

ryan minikey   June 8, 2021 at 7:42am

Sorry about your rating but I'm definitely willing to switch

Jacob Czarnik    June 6, 2021 at 12:54pm

I am still looking to switch from MA3 to MA2. If you are in MA2 and can switch please let me know. Thanks.

Kylar Mikkelson   July 6, 2021 at 1:26am

Still looking?

Curtis R    June 5, 2021 at 11:18pm

I’m wondering if my hole sponsorship info was received. I emailed Jamie a few times with no response and just wanted to make sure that I’m all set. Thanks

Permalink
Nate Heinold   June 7, 2021 at 1:36am

If you sent an email you are good.

Sean Newland   June 7, 2021 at 5:52pm

Are we supposed to reach out to Jamie to provide and receive hope sponsorship details? I am hoping I didn’t miss an email.

Nate Heinold   June 8, 2021 at 2:18am

Jamie emailed everyone using the email that person used when they signed up. Check your spam.

Chris Conk    June 4, 2021 at 11:54pm

What are a few good camping options? I see there are dozens around the MetroPark area, can anyone recommend those where other Disc golfers go. Thanks.

John Ferguson   June 12, 2021 at 8:25pm

Have you checked Camp Dearborn?

Chris Conk   June 13, 2021 at 2:52pm

Thanks John. Dearborn is on my radar for sure. You recommend it above the others?

Alex Baker    June 4, 2021 at 8:25pm

Hello I'd like to move from MA2 waitlist to MA3 waitlist. Thanks!

You can use your DGS confirmation email to do this.

MA1 looking to drop to MA2 if anyone wants to move up!
