Hi Luis, not sure on that one, I just run small events in NM. Contact Kyle Haute or Kyle Harrington for more info on the national MA60 division.

Kyle Maute   March 30, 2021 at 12:20pm

We have offered MA60 for NADGT events that have requested the divisioinal addition. Weh divisionas are added to an event it includes new divisions, but does not change the divisions offered at Nationals. The divisions that are included at Nationals are set at the beginning of the season. We are m ... more

THANK YOU.

Are spectators allowed?

Great question. I'll find an answer.

Ryan Flahive   March 29, 2021 at 3:11pm

Sorry, no spectators per the golf club.

Weston Ress    March 26, 2021 at 7:05pm

I see that UDisc has the course posted as NADGT. There are two layouts. Are there any divisions that would be using the shorter tees or is everyone playing same tees? Either way I’m excited to play on such a beautiful wide open course.

Ryan Flahive   March 26, 2021 at 7:34pm

MA1 and MA40 will play the long tee layout. All other divisions will play the short tee layout. Don't let the wide open fairways deceive you; the greens are technical.

Any news on opening more spots up?

Never received any notification. I was following the tournament and was never notified

Ryan Flahive   March 8, 2021 at 9:23pm

I'm sorry you never received notification, it was full again before we were able to create a DGS announcement. We'll try to do better.

no worries

Does anyone know if the snap back hat is a flat bill or curved?

Will RV camping be allowed in the parking lot?

Ryan Flahive   March 4, 2021 at 8:49pm

Great question. I'll find out!

Ryan Flahive   March 8, 2021 at 8:52pm

Randy, Towa informed me there is no RV parking on the property unless you have a hotel reservation. the RoadRunner RV Park is just down the road at 55 Ogo Wii Rd, Santa Fe, NM 87506, (505) 455-2626

Will the course be available for practice anytime the week of, other than the Friday flex?

Permalink
Ryan Flahive   March 2, 2021 at 10:57pm

Hi Aaron, the course setup brings golf greens and bunkers into play--we can't set up the course until the evening of April 1--so April 2 will be the only available practice day. However, we will allow players to practice the course without playing the Flex, if so desired.

Donovan Livingston    February 21, 2021 at 9:48pm

Only 54 spots? Why? Also why so little spots for the ladies? We are interested in coming to play, but we're in Illinois, would love to get an MA2 and FA2 spot before committing to the trip.

Kyle Maute   February 22, 2021 at 12:31pm

54 spots was the number that was given based on the covid restrictions when this event opened. We are in communications with the area to see if and when the cap will be able ot be increase.

Kyle Maute   February 22, 2021 at 12:32pm

As far as the number of spots for players, it is based on the players who choose to register. Spots are made available and people claim those spots based on the time they register.

John Scheinpflug    February 18, 2021 at 4:21am

any chance this tournament will be more than 54 people?

Ryan Flahive   February 18, 2021 at 6:46pm

There is a chance. Stay tuned.

Jay Maas   February 21, 2021 at 10:01pm

Great to hear. I'm dying to play in this one! ha

JASON MOHAMED    February 4, 2021 at 6:18pm

Will we be able to card with people we travel with to minimize covid exposure, even if in different divisions?

Permalink
Ryan Flahive   February 4, 2021 at 8:12pm

Hi Jason, cards will be arranged by division and will not change between rounds. Specific Covid-19 protocols will be distributed with teetime assignments a couple days prior to the event.

Jay Maas    January 22, 2021 at 12:17am

Any chance for the player cap to be increased?

Permalink
Ryan Flahive   January 22, 2021 at 6:36pm

Hi Jay. The event is capped the event at 54 to assure we can meet covid appropriate procedures (teetimes) while completing 36 holes in a single day. Thank you for your question but the cap will remain 54 players.

Jay Maas   February 17, 2021 at 8:48pm

Considering some updates to the states covid protocols, is there a possibility that cards will have groups of 5 and some more of us may get in?

Devon LaFrance    January 12, 2021 at 7:16pm

Is there going to be an opportunity to play a practice round on the Friday before the tournament?

Permalink
Ryan Flahive   January 12, 2021 at 7:31pm

Great Question! Infinite Discs will be on site with their RV of inventory to host a Friday Flex event. It will be the ONLY opportunity to practice the tournament layout. Stay tuned for more details.

Devon LaFrance   January 12, 2021 at 8:12pm

Awesome! Thanks for the quick response!

Ryan Flahive    January 6, 2021 at 6:31pm

Hi Everyone,
The $35 course fee is for access to the golf course for two 18-hole rounds of disc golf--every cent goes to Towa Golf Club (not the TD or NADGT). Towa decided against carts for two reasons, 1) due to covid we are not allowed to share carts and 2) the club does not have enough carts to give one to each disc golfer and still have enough carts on the property to accommodate ball golfers who are paying $70 for their single round.
I hope this clears up your questions about the course fees.

I understand your concern Keenan. $35 for 2 rounds is what was agreed to because we get Boulder for the whole day they usually send out ball golfers prior to tee our teetimes to make up the money they are losing by allowing us to play at 50% of a ball golf green fee.

Keenan Cook   January 7, 2021 at 8:57pm

I see. Thanks for the quick response and the hard work you are putting into this tourney

I just received my 15.00 as it states carts will no longer be available. In this case, what is included in the 35.00 course fee?

Permalink

Keenan Cook    January 3, 2021 at 1:58pm

Surely it is included. That course looks like it charges 15.00 to play, 15 for a cart. 2 rounds and a cart for 50.00 would make sense

Rebecca Charles    January 3, 2021 at 3:00am

Does the $50 Course fee include the 2 rounds and cart rental, or would that be an additional fee?

Permalink
Chris Dellinger   January 3, 2021 at 4:55am

I really hope it’s included. The $50 course fee was kind of a shock when I went to register
