Here is a link to electronic scoring through PDGA https://www.pdga.com/apps/tournament/score/sign-in (you may have to copy and paste)

E-scoring password is my last name, bass.

It is gonna be slow going most likely tomorrow, especially the 2nd round, so please be patient and enjoy being outside in some spectacular weather with friends, but also be ready to throw with disc in hand when it is your turn and save everyone some time please. If everyone would do this, it would make a world of difference in how long everyone has to wait.

PRO TIP of the day – when you are out of position on #12 (the snake hole as I call it), just take your medicine and layup in the fairway to a place you can best reach the basket on your NEXT shot. As soon as you try to make a hero shot on that hole, you will pay dearly. It is an easy hole if you just take what it gives you and remember it is a par 4.

Please buy some raffle tickets if you have not already. I am already doing one cash giveaway for $40 (you could win your entry fee back) along with some really good prizes. I heard today one of those Discmania Iron Samurai’s fetched well over $100, so come give yourself a chance to take it home.

We will have a couple water coolers on the course, but please use the sanitizer lying nearby before reaching into the cooler and do our part to minimize germ spread. Also before you come and dig through the merchandise, I kindly ask that you sanitize your hands. I will have some onsite. Thank you for your cooperation!!

Course Layout – For anyone who has not played the Pearl River Landing DGC, the course starts and finishes at the maintenance barn on the farside of the loop from the front entrance. The front nine makes a figure eight basically, with #9 basket right near the barn where you started. The back 9 makes a much bigger loop around the rest of the park, but finishes right back where you started.

Tee boxes – There are 3 tees on every hole except two, #14 & #15 which have two. All the tee signs on the back nine look alike from afar, but most are close enough together to be easily distinguished. Make certain you are throwing from the proper tee or penalty strokes must be incurred. The tees are red (short), white (middle) and blue (longs aka gold)

The teeing area will be marked with a sign/post and either a concrete pill planted in the ground or a colored flag.

Temp #16 – Unfortunately, one of the best holes on the course is closed off because the bridges crossing the creek have been deemed unsafe, but not to worry, we have a bomber par 4 replacement that takes you right back where you need to be. You will cross the street in the other direction and play to a temp basket back towards #17 tee.

Electronic scoring – E-scoring will be the official and definitive scoring method for the tourney. Paper scorecards will also be required as a backup to e-scoring so be sure and check in the morning if anyone from your starting hole has picked up the scorecard.

LUNCH – Due to time constraints and the fact we will be playing in 5-somes, we will have only 45 minutes from the LAST card turned in for lunch. So that means most of you will still get a full hour, but unfortunately, the last card will be held to 45 minutes. We need to cut corners where we can to fight darkness and The Deck, “Good, Fast Food” is right down the road, or a couple other eating options (Wards or gas station kitchen)

Welcome to the 2021 Pearl River Rundown!

We are happy to welcome you to Columbia, MS and to be hosting you at the Pearl River Landing DGC. While in town please stop in at THE DECK for your breakfast or lunch, with 2 locations you can find them easily and they serve good food for a great price. There is one on HWY 98 coming into town from the East and another on Main St.

When you arrive at the Columbia Water Park, you will see that there is only one road in and out of the park and it just makes a big loop through the park around the ball fields. We will most likely have a ball field fence open and will all park in an orderly fashion in the outfield of that particular field. I will get back to you all on that though.

When you go through the fence/gate of the park you can turn to the right and go down a gravel road, turn left and take the loop around or continue straight. We will take advantage of this and break up player check in using those options.

· Continue straight - MA2, MA1, MA40, MA50, MA60, MPO, MPM

MA2 should receive a $10 Largemouth Money voucher

· Turn left - MJ12, MJ15, MA4, MA3, FA4, FA3, FA2, FP40

All these divisions should receive a player pack of their choosing
