Eric Dunton Jan 28, 2023 Maybe i missed it but the nNew caddy book doesn't say which tee boxes MA2 plays from

Dylan Bosworth Jan 28, 2023 FA1/MA50/MA2 - Play White Tees, Hole 1, 2, 8, 9, 11, 15, 16 & 17.
(Udisc AM2 Layout).

Eric Dunton Jan 28, 2023 Ahhh I see that now. I played the MA2 layout on Udisc 2 weeks ago and it was completely different. It's much harder now I see lol

Curtis Van Slyke Jan 26, 2023 Can I get on a wait list for MA40 or MA1?

Curtis Van Slyke Jan 26, 2023 If anyone drops

Eric Graff So, 3 people in the MA 50 class>
Not really worth the effort to drive, stay and play.

show 1 earlier comment

Eric Graff Jan 21, 2023 Thinking about it.... Not many points in a 4 person class...

Sam Russ Jan 21, 2023 You're choice but let me know soon... working on tee times and payouts this weekend

Sam Russ Jan 21, 2023 Down to 3 again

Brian Calvin Sam, I wont be able to play in the tournament. Please withdraw me from the ma50 division.
Hope to see you next year! Jan 19, 2023

Sam Russ Jan 19, 2023 Sorry to hear

Chance Stephens Now why does the pro's play 3 rounds and the Am's play 2 rounds.. There are more Am's then pro's.. Jan 16, 2023

Sam Russ Jan 16, 2023 because the pros are A tier

Sam Russ Jan 16, 2023 Wasnt about quantity, because I knew there would be more AMs then Pros. but being the Pros is set as an A tier it requires 54 holes played minimum. B tier only requires 36 holes

Roger Rahill Sam, I’m only coming Sat and Sun. When is check-in those days, and will we know tee times, or is it a shotgun start for all at 8am? Jan 16, 2023

Cody Brown Jan 16, 2023 Tee times, they’ll probably be available Thursday evening/Friday. Check in is generally at least 15 minutes before your tee time.

Sam Russ Jan 16, 2023 Tee times and you can check in before your tee time. Ill post your tee times after registration is closed

Jeff Martin Hi. UDisc is showing MA3 will play Am3 layout. A comment below says Am2 will be played. Can you confirm which layout will be played? Thanks! Jan 12, 2023

Sam Russ Jan 12, 2023 I fixed the layouts, so itll be what Udisc shows. AM3

Roger Rahill Thanks. Jan 6, 2023

Jordan Cohen What color tees for ma3 if you don't mind me asking? Jan 3, 2023

Sam Russ Jan 3, 2023 White w/ minor additional difficulty

Sam Russ Jan 3, 2023 where available

Sam Russ Jan 12, 2023 Udisc Am3

Roger Rahill White tees for MA60s? Jan 2, 2023

Sam Russ Jan 3, 2023 Most likely

Sam Russ Jan 12, 2023 Udisc AM3

Joe rourke What will the general time blocks be for MA40, MA1 and MA2? I’m trying to see which division timeframe will fit best with the other event scheduled for my trip.

Any help with this is greatly appreciated! Dec 31, 2022

Sam Russ Jan 3, 2023 it is possible, wont know actual times till after registration closes. Last year range was 1100 - 1220 for MA1

Sean Anthony Terrillion Jan 3, 2023 For sure. Thanks Sam! Imma get registered and chance it, I'll just let you know if I can't make it Sunday!

Sam Russ Jan 4, 2023 no problem

Max Camacho No waitlist? Dec 30, 2022

Sam Russ Dec 30, 2022 Fixed

Kristofer Jonson No meadows means no playing for me. Super bummed the HOA went this direction, its one of the best in the state. Hopefully you can win them over by next year. Dec 9, 2022

Sam Russ Dec 12, 2022 Don't give them what they want... You're going to miss a great event!!!

Todd quigg The am1 winners get to play the pro weekend? Is it an invite or a free spot Dec 9, 2022

Sam Russ Dec 9, 2022 First Place MA1 & FA1, earn spots in the Pro Weekend, on top of respected prize. That's if they decide to play in the PRO weekend.

Eric Graff ok, so seeing the lack of interest so far. What happens if this becomes a wash and doesn't happen? IE: sponsor money and entry ect??
Just curious why very little interest in this event.... Dec 7, 2022

Shawn Boyd Dec 8, 2022 Probably because Maricopa Meadows is not being played this year.

Sam Russ Dec 9, 2022 Itll happen but at Copper Sky. Early registration is open now, then General will open. Event will fill so I recommend signing up early or take chance on waitlist.

Ben Yankovich Why is there a price difference for AM players ? Is there a payout or a better player pack for higher divisions? Dec 7, 2022

show 2 earlier comments

Ben Yankovich Dec 14, 2022 I play in MA1 btw. I don’t bag. But as a TD multiple times, you need to explain to me why I have to pay more money if I’m not getting a cash payout like pro players.

Sam Russ Dec 18, 2022 Prize payout is better as you advance, similar to playing pro vs am. payout is not set yet because I do not know how many players there will be.

Sam Russ Dec 18, 2022 besides it helps entice newer players to play an event.

John Scheinpflug Sam, What are the chances of talking to the mayor who seemed to have supported us over the years. Why would they be against us? Why even have that course? We should just send 108 players there to play on Saturday. How they even know it was a tournament. Dec 5, 2022

Sam Russ Dec 5, 2022 Unfortunately the Mayor has nothing to do about private land. It’s an HOA course and we have to follow unwillingly the boards vote.

Armando Cruz Any more information on the AM rounds? Is it one round each day? I saw only PROs play 3 rounds. Thanks. Dec 4, 2022

Sam Russ Dec 4, 2022 1 round of 18 each day. Tee times

Sam Russ 1st Early registration opens tonight @ 7 PM. 2nd Early registration opens 12/10 @ 7 PM, then general registration opens 12/17 @ 7 PM Dec 3, 2022

Victor Gordon Dec 13, 2022 Other then a guaranteed spot, why sign up early if it cost 100-50 dollars more. Is there a better player pack?

Sam Russ Dec 18, 2022 no, with getting into tournaments harder and harder, it is an opportunity to get a desired spot prior to general registration opening, it also helps raise more funds for the event.

Shawn Boyd Is Maricopa Meadows still a possibility? Dec 3, 2022

Sam Russ Dec 3, 2022 Nope... Biased HOA Board denied course use

Ron Tiley Is this going to be a 3 round tournament? Dec 3, 2022

Sam Russ Dec 3, 2022 Only for Pros

Joe Judd What time in AZ time does registration open? Dec 3, 2022

Sam Russ Dec 3, 2022 Tomorrow at 7pm

Sam Russ Dec 3, 2022 for early entry

Hayden Evernden Trying to plan a trip for this… is this for sure going on? Is registration going to be ready to open on the 1st ?

When will prices and etc be posted ? Nov 28, 2022

Sam Russ Nov 28, 2022 Working on course conformation, but the event will happen. Early registration opens the 1st. Gen registration will open week or so after

Hayden Evernden Nov 30, 2022 Thanks sam

Victor Gordon Any confirmation on dates and divisions? Nov 20, 2022

Sam Russ Nov 28, 2022 Jan 28-29 for AMs. Feb 3-5 for Pros

Jonathan Herring Can’t wait Oct 25, 2022

John Scheinpflug Sam, Are these dates correct? Sunday and Monday for AMS. Oct 24, 2022

Sam Russ Oct 24, 2022 Fixed. Nothing is fully set till HOA approves course us. This is more to hold the dates.
