About this tournament
1 round of 18 holes at Driesner Park
$5 from each entry will be donated to Austin disc golf courses. 100% of the profit from prize money will go to Austin disc golf club (Atari). We are currently looking at more trees, new tee pads, and new tee signs!
Novice MA4 / Recreational MA3 / Junior: All players will receive a players pack and will not be competing for prizes.
Advanced MA 1/ Intermediate MA2 / AM40+ and other AM age protected divisions: Play for prize money credit based on placement
(Pay down %50 of field)
Pro field will be paid out to 40%
We will raffle away a Squatch Bag, picture on facebook. All players will be entered into raffle.
Trophies will be cool glass pendants for division winners.
There will be a more limited amount of merchandise for sale at this event due to the tournament director playing in the event, basically a trunk full.
Ace Pool: Everyone is automatically entered in the ace pool ($1 per player). If there is no ace we will throw off for the ace money. If there is an ace we will do a throw-off for a prize. This gives me time to sort out scoring problems, figure out ties, etc.
We will do live scoring. Starting hole #s will be on the pdga website before the event begins.
Online Scoring:
All official scores will be done through PDGA Digital Scoreboard. If you need an overview, you can read at http://bit.do/pdgascoring and when it’s time to go, simply go to www.pdga.com/score to get started.
These scores will be official and authoritative. That is, if you confirm an incorrect score, that is the same as turning in an incorrect physical scorecard and you would be penalized. Tips that I’ve learned in using this for previous tournaments are to sign out and sign back in if you are having issues loading anything, especially between rounds. And don’t forget to click confirm on your round at the end - simply entering the scores of the last hole is not enough.
