Good evening and thank you for registering for the fifth event of the Fly Guy NC Amateur Tour!

There will be NO player meeting before the event. This email serves as the player meeting. READ IT CAREFULLY AS IT DETAILS RULES OF PLAY.

It looks to be a hat day. While I will be bringing water bottles, be sure to plan and pack accordingly. Also - its June in NC - be prepared should the weather turn and rain arrive unexpectedly.

Good evening and thank you for registering for the fifth event of the Fly Guy NC Amateur Tour!

There will be NO player meeting before the event. This email serves as the player meeting. READ IT CAREFULLY AS IT DETAILS RULES OF PLAY.

It looks to be a hat day. While I will be bringing water bottles, be sure to plan and pack accordingly. Also - its June in NC - be prepared should the weather turn and rain arrive unexpectedly.


Sponsors - this tour would not be possible without the sponsors who have partnered with Fly Guy to put on this 11 event series.

MA3 and FA3 - Free Entry into MA2 / FA2 for the entire 2022
MJ18- and MJ12- Final prize dependent upon total series entries, but will be sweet, I promise

Now, the event tomorrow: I am moving the usual times up 15 minutes in an effort to get an early "beat the heat" start,

7:15- We will begin registration. Tournament Central will be set up in the CLub House / Area.
You will need to follow all COVID / Social distance guidelines while around the Tournament Central .
Player Pack will be given at this time. Player Pack for this event will be a shirt and a custom stamped Emac Judge putter.
As of this email there are ZERO people on the waitlist remaining - and I will not accept any day of registration.
We will close registration at 8:15 sharp.

We will call two minutes at 8:28 by sounding a truck horn. Start will be called at 8:30in the same manner. The woods are thick so be sure to "pass it along" when you hear it.

All players are starting at 8:30. Your starting hole is tentatively posted now, but you should verify that no change has taken lace tomorrow moring at 8:20.
The event info, including starting hole assignments , is located at https://www.pdga.com/tour/event/52005 .

This is a private property, and you are expected to respect the owner's investment of work, love and money and not litter, deface, damage or otherwise negatively impact the property.
"No Negative Vibes''.
While this IS a private property, for the duration of this event, the No Alcohol/ Substances rules ARE in effect.

Format -
Singles stroke play.
Sliding scale payout , from Trophy Only for Novice, and incremental increases as divisions climb.
There ARE Trophies for all divisions; First Only in FA4 and MA4, and up to 1,2,3 in other divisions.
*Trophy purchase was made based on registration on 5/30/2021.

Scoring -
It is our desire that every card uses the PDGA live scoring system. This is NOT the PDGA App.
You access it by going to PDGA.com/SCORES .
You will then enter an event code : FGDG

From here it is intuitive scorekeeping like you do with Udisc.

All cards should keep a second, DIFFERENT card for score verification. This may be udisc, the PDGA APP ( NOT live scoring ) etc.

DO NOT FORGET - You MUST confirm your scores in the Live Scoring system at the end of your round before leaving the tournament area.

LAYOUTS:

Layouts for ALL DIVISIONS will be Dreams ( Short tees) Holes
*** WE WILL PLAY THE 21 HOLE LAYOUT BOTH ROUNDS ***

Round two tee time will be announced in the park and posted to the Fly Guy Disc Golf Am Tour Facebook page. Starting holes will be posted to the PDGA results page.

Payout is via electronic voucher for those who qualify. It will be sent to the email address that you registered for the event under when signing thru DiscGolfScene.

So that should be about it - we're going to have LOTS OF FUN, and I know I am looking forward to seeing lots of folks I have not seen in a while.

** Last thing - This is a PDGA event. That means PDGA competition rules of play, as well as code of conduct. If it doesn't belong in the park, leave it at home. Likewise, do not put me in the position to choose a player versus maintaining good relationships with the parks system - I'll sacrifice the player for bad conduct every time. A lot of work and cooperation goes into these facilities - and we cannot represent both the sport and the community in an ill light by breaking park rules and/or violating code of conduct protocols. Be familiar with the rules, and follow them. **

See you in the morning

I put in a note on the registration, but that may not have come through. I'd like to be paired up with my 11 year old daughter Chloe if possible. Thanks!

Collin Murphy    June 18, 2021 at 6:00pm

Hannable. I understand we are only playing 18 holes. But the course was recently renumbered when all baskets were upgraded to innova discathers. Going 1-18 as the new numbers follow or are we skipping 11-13 (old 19,20,21) and going from 10 hanging basket to 14 (old 1) long open hole down to the pond

Hannable McGarity    June 18, 2021 at 3:27pm

TENATIVE Hole assignments posted for round 1.
THESE CAN CHANGE if there are no shows - drops - make sure you verify at 8:15 what your assigned hole is.

Given the heat index called for tomorrow, I am looking at a little earlier start than normal so we can beat the heat.

John Franz    June 17, 2021 at 3:12pm

I hate to do this, but I'm gonna have to withdraw..
Something is going on with my left knee and I should go have it looked at before it blows up. Sucks. Please withdraw Axel F. and myself. Sorry.

Kevin Crice    June 17, 2021 at 1:44am

Will it be available to play Friday?

Jonathan Armstrong    June 16, 2021 at 5:20pm

Whats the likely hood that if an individual was to sign up to be wait listed that they will be able to play in this event

Sean Jenkins    June 16, 2021 at 3:14pm

Will we be playing the full 23 holes or the 18 hole layout?

Stephen Caviness    June 16, 2021 at 2:43pm

What time do we need to arrive? No schedule is posted yet.

Christopher Walton    June 16, 2021 at 4:07am

No need for a refund, but you can remove me from the registration, I won't be making it.

Nathan Majors    June 15, 2021 at 1:29am

Hey I already got my refund but didn’t get removed, if you could do that , that would be great. I would hate for me to take up a spot

John Franz    June 7, 2021 at 2:48pm

Hi. Is it possible for you to switch me from Novice to Rec, please?

Noah smith    June 7, 2021 at 1:00pm

Are spectators allowed ?

Kevin Mateer    May 27, 2021 at 4:22am

Refund request my good sir

Jacob Mouw    May 23, 2021 at 2:26am

U-Disc says regular Sunday doubs at 1pm. Can non-members join? Haven't played the course and figured that's a good/fun way to check it out

Chris Sherry    May 20, 2021 at 7:58pm

I unfohave to withdraw. Can I get refund? Thank you

Ernest Raymond    May 20, 2021 at 4:40pm

Noah smith    May 13, 2021 at 10:09pm

Are the group going to be random ?

Paul Smith    May 11, 2021 at 5:49pm

Will all rounds be played on the dreams tees, or will some be played on nightmares?
