An awesome event at a great course. Great run event! Cool player's package! CTP's, ace pool, and other prizes! Awesome Lumberjack trophies!
Unfortunately we will not be providing lunch this year. With all of the Covid issues, we feel that it will be the safest thing for us to do. The good thing is Oshtemo Township Park is close to lots of food options!
2021 LUMBERJACK OPEN
Thank you for coming to this year’s Lumberjack Open. We are going to do our best to hold this tournament during a pandemic. We are going to take some precautions and ask that you cooperate with us and are patient as we do our best to limit contact between people during this event. We ask that you practice social distancing and try to maintain a 6’ distance from others. That you use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when around others and when handling tournament equipment and tournament merchandise. We also request that you respect others and their wishes regarding their comfort level of exposure. If someone asks you to move a little further away from them, just move a little further away. Failure to practice social distancing could result in expulsion from the tournament.
There is no player’s meeting. This letter will work as your meeting and you are expected to know the information provided in it. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. We will also be posting tournament information at Tournament Central (large pavilion). Please check there as the day goes on for any new information and announcements.
Scoring this year will be primarily be done using the PDGA live scoring App. The website is:
www.pdga/apps/tournament/score/login
The codes for this event are:
Sat – 6!LJ21
Sun – 4!LJ21
If you and your group are unable to use this App to do the live scoring, please get a scorecard from Tournament Central for each person. Each person should keep their own card and do not share the scorecards among the group during the round. The scorecards must be turned into Tournament Central after the round.
Tee assignments are posted online. We will also be keeping a leaderboard for everyone to look at. The Online posting will take precedence over the leaderboard in case of any discrepancy between the 2.
We are playing 2 rounds of 18 holes. The tee assignments for each round are below:
Saturday:
MP40+-short/long
MA1-long/long
MA3-short/short
MA50+-short/short
MA60+-short/short
Juniors - short/short
Sunday:
MPO-long/long
FPO-short/long
MP50+-short/short
MA40+-short/short
MA2-short/long
FA1-short/short
FA2 - short/short
The 2-minute warning will be blown at 9:18am for the first round. Please make sure to be on your tee by then. The time for the second round will be posted by the bulletin board. That is also the time for the 2-minute warning of the second round. So, be on your tee at that time and ready to go.
We ask that you clear your disc from the basket after making your putt and that you only handle your own discs. Please, no clearing of someone else’s disc and handing it back to them.
Awards are also different and for amateurs, it will take longer to get your stuff. There will be no awards ceremony. The final standings and payout will be posted on the leader board. Pros will have their choice to collect cash at the event or get their money sent via PayPal. Amateurs will have to wait to get called off to come and select their winnings. We will only be allowing a few at a time to select their stuff to limit how close people get to each other. This will be done by the top finishers in divisions going first. Amateurs are also expected to wear PPE to select their stuff. We also ask that you please select your stuff quickly as there will be others waiting to select their stuff. Once your division’s results are posted, please do not go too far from Tournament Central so you can hear when you are called (if you finished in the payout). Amateurs can also select their winnings on another day (Saturday winners can come back Sunday in the middle of the day or if you are going to play the Angry Squirrel, or league, …) or have their payout mailed to them (postage would come out of payout). If you would like to collect your winnings another day, please let us know your plans. We are not responsible for tracking people down to get them their stuff. We will work with you to accommodate what you would like but you must communicate with us first.
COURSE RULES AND OB’S FOR THE LUMBERJACK OPEN 2021:
There are not many OB’s to worry about and they are mostly hard to get to.
There is a metal guardrail that surrounds the outside of the park. If you are on the other side of that, you are OB.
All structures (bathrooms, pavilions, garages, …) and playground are OB.
The paved path and parking lot are OB.
Inside the fenced tennis courts is OB. The pavement overflow around the tennis courts is not OB.
TOWER OF DOOM:
Half of the money raised by the Tower of Doom will be used to buy new baskets for Oshtemo Township Park! So, next year you will be throwing on much better baskets! Please, consider making a few throws!
It is $5/throw or $20 for 5 throws.
Please see Chris Davis for more details and to take your throws!
