Hi everyone, thanks for coming out for the Last Call at Kenwood. Below is everything that you should need to know for the event. If you are on the waitlist please keep an eye out for an email and a text about any late drop outs.

I plan to be set up by 8 am. You do not need to check in. There will be a quick players meeting at 8:40 to answer questions and review any necessary rules. We will tee off at 9:00.

Every player will be required to keep score for everyone on their card this year according to the PDGA rules. Please take a few minutes to read this short PDGA article on scorekeeping: https://www.pdga.com/news/how-score-2024-player-td-guidance?fbclid=IwAR2w9q5YQbytBKoJblOjw2JlhyxtIqEYsv-AwXDTgiNS_xkckvxf9JTLBQU
Players must either use the PDGA digital scoring at pdga.com/score (or on the PDGA app) or use a paper scorecard. All digital scorecards need to be submitted and all paper scorecards will need to be turned in at tournament central within 30 minutes from when you finish your round. Please review all scorecards within your group before submitting or turning in your scorecard. If you are keeping a paper scorecard you must mark it as yours by putting a mark by your name on the card or adding your name on the back of the card. Any invalid scores or late scorecards will be given a 2 stroke penalty for the scorekeeper. It is much preferred that players use the digital scoring rather than a paper scorecard if possible (but paper cards will be available) as it will make the second round start earlier and the end of day payouts will be ready much faster. The digital access code for scoring is kenwood.

Hole assignments will be posted later this evening on the event page (https://www.pdga.com/tour/event/82866).

The second round will start one hour from when the last card to finish is complete with their first round. The second round start time and your starting holes will be posted on the PDGA results page (https://www.pdga.com/tour/event/82866) shortly after everyone has finished their first round. If you are ready to tee off one hour from when you finished, you won't be late. There will not be players meeting before the second round. You can also follow the Facebook event page for updates: https://www.facebook.com/events/446160694703573

Layout:
Everyone will be playing the long tees to long baskets for both rounds.

OBs:
On or across any parking lot, road, or fence.
We will play the mandatory on hole 11. There will be a drop zone if you miss the mandatory.

Ace Pool:
There is an optional $2 ace pool this season. If no one that pays into the ace pool for the event gets an ace, then the ace pool will carry over to the next event. If you are not sure if you signed up for the ace pool you should be able to check the email you received when you registered. If there are no aces in the final event of the season the ace pool will be added into the Gray Duck Tour Series payouts. The Ace pool was hit at the last event, so there is nothing carrying over into this event.

Gray Duck Tour Series
This year we are adding a season points series for the Amateur divisions. Here is the structure:

$1 of every MA1, MA2, MA3, and MA4 entry goes to season payouts for the division that the player played in.

Event Points Calculation:
1st = 100 + (0.1 x players in division)
Everyone Else = 100 - ((place-1) * 30) / players in division

Total Season Points will be equal to the Top 7 events for each player in a division.

After the final event of the year the Prize pool value for each division will be equal to the total number of players that played in that division for each event combined.
The top 5% of each division's season points leaders (up to 10 players total) will be paid out in merchandise credit after the last event of the season.

Payouts for the Open division will be available in cash at the end of the day or via PayPal or Venmo. If you choose PayPal or Venmo, please make sure to provide any necessary information of where you would like the payout sent. If you want to get cash after the event you may cut to the front of the checkout line as I will have envelopes ready to go.

Payouts for AMs will be available on site following the second round through Gray Duck Disc Golf. Once everyone is finished with the second round, payouts will be posted on the disc golf scene event page https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournaments/Last_Call_at_Kenwood_2024. After payouts are posted you can redeem any credit immediately. All merchandise credit earned will expire one year after it is earned and will be redeemable at Gray Duck Disc Golf in Cottage Grove using the phone number that you registered with.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
