About this tournament

Join us for 3rd Annual Gravitational Pull at the Cove! Gravity Disc Golf and Walker Rocks are hosting a B-Tier at Mountain Cove Farms! The course will be in top shape after working with the amazing folks at Mountain Cove and a couple of workdays to get this ready to play. We will use an 18 Hole Temp Course with the existing main layout to have a Two-Round, Two Course Event with Tee Times for both Rounds.

Mountain Cove is a gem and a staple in this area and Gravity is excited to bring the course and event back to life again! This is an well-designed course and we want to bring an event that will match this.

Please read below where you can find the event/course details.

Since there are two courses and multiple tee pads, I will have initial caps on divisions to keep the cards/tees/divisions as balanced as possible.
