Josh Blum Wait... so now Ma3 is playing the 1 course we were never scheduled to play?? Boooooooooo Aug 30, 2019

Justin Brown Aug 30, 2019 Woods course is by far the best course! So much better than original or Parkside!

It seems unwise to make the trip for those out of town with state-wide gas shortages, state of emergency evacuation traffic, and anticipated tropical force weather starting as soon as Sunday morning. ... show more ›

James Jurden Address to "The Woods" course? Aug 30, 2019

show 1 earlier comment

Scott Alexander Aug 30, 2019 The Woods course is the first road to the left after you enter the park.

Dan Lewis Aug 30, 2019 3401 S Hiawassee Rd, Orlando, FL 32835 Same as the other 2 courses at Bill Frederick Park. The Woods course is up near the front of the park.

James Jurden Aug 30, 2019 Thanks you!!

Jack fan Any locals in Orlando ? What’s the condition like up there ? Are you able to find gas ?
I don’t want to make the 3 hour drive up there and be stuck cause I can’t find gas or roads are closed. Aug 30, 2019

Keith Steinmeyer Aug 30, 2019 Just drove by the 7-11 near tlp, still has gas. Most places still have gas here, just anecdotal but coastal cities seem to be seeing a shortage more than Orlando so far.

Davy Reynolds Travel safe everyone. Evacs have started here and they said to make sure your packed for 5-7 days. Also make sure you to give yourself a lot of time to arrive at the park early enough with all the traffic about to accumulate. Aug 30, 2019

Ken Bess Aug 30, 2019 They stopped doing this in 2017 with Irma, they now have emergency shoulder use, which replaced contraflow. The law enforcement resources became too great so they changed the method of evacuation.

Davy Reynolds Aug 31, 2019 Brevard county just issued mandatory evacs......

Mike Gambini Now that we are off the hook for Monday, have tits cooled down yet?! I see Craig PP is still a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs. Poor bastard. You have a tourney to win. RISE UP SOLDIER! Aug 30, 2019

Mike Cain Aug 30, 2019 Really! I’m exhausted and haven’t even played one round yet!

Mike Gambini Aug 30, 2019 Think of it as entertainment humor. Nothing personal!

Joe Baley Can we please use all withdrawal request funds to update signs at Northside and have them say "Funded by Dorian 2019" Aug 30, 2019

Mike Gambini Aug 30, 2019 Yes!!

Mike Puna

Reed Hancock Aug 30, 2019 Craig do you sleep

Roderick Queen I’d think if it could be done condensing to 4 rounds on Saturday and Sunday would ease a lot of people’s minds and give time. Also give the td’s a break, they are trying to be patient and want to make the best decision they can. Aug 30, 2019

Mike Gambini Aug 30, 2019 Lmao I literally just said this to my buddy 15 mins ago. Monday is fucking with people’s minds.

Mike Cain We are going to break the internet! Aug 29, 2019

Justin Brown Well I for one am super excited! Time to really test them skills boys and girls. Aug 29, 2019

Conor Montague This is pure Kafka Aug 29, 2019

Mike Gambini Aug 29, 2019 I don't expect this kind of high-level thinking from a disc golfer. Bravo sir!

Mike Gambini I just made some fresh popcorn, would someone please make a stupid comment ASAP?? Aug 29, 2019

Craig PP Wesnofske Aug 29, 2019 Trump is about to cancel this from the rose garden.

Mike Cain Aug 30, 2019 No he’s going to nuke the storm!

Reed Hancock Can we please chill! It won’t be too severe until Monday and a fifth round isn’t very necessary anyways Aug 29, 2019

Scott Paul Wonder if them handing out sandbags at Barnett Patk will afect the Tournament any.... Aug 29, 2019

Gregg stevens Everyone calm down. Storm is slowing. Its nit expected to hut land till early tuesday morning. Lets play!!! Aug 29, 2019

Jared Smith wonder If par at any course would be 1000 rated in a hurricane? Aug 29, 2019

Mike Gambini Aug 29, 2019 Well I'm shooting 3-5 down on T1 so it looks like you'll have to catapult me into the Climo/McBeth debate

Mike Gambini Aug 29, 2019 True dat!

Caleb Flack Look at Section I.

How I understand this is that if we play two rounds then we don't get refunds. Let me know if my thinking is wrong or not.

https://www.pdga.com/rules/competition-manual/107 Aug 29, 2019

Big Matt Hodges Aug 29, 2019 That is what it looked like to me.

Davy Reynolds Who do we need to contact at the pdga about a refund given these circumstances? Aug 29, 2019

Chuck Brunke Aug 29, 2019 Gambino, do not have a drink with Craig PP. He will dose you with something. Don't ask how I know this.

Chuck Brunke Aug 29, 2019 You know it.

Mike Gambini Aug 29, 2019 LMFAO

Ian m So what's your contingency plan for getting me home safely Monday evening as a category 3/4 hurricane is bearing down over Florida. Aug 29, 2019

Mike Cain Aug 29, 2019 Withdrawal is always an option.

Mike Cain Aug 29, 2019 I'm sure with that attitude you won't be missed. :D

Mike Cain Aug 29, 2019 Me too. I'm all in!!

Reed Hancock Gosh, I hope nobody had plans to camp overnight in the camping area. Aug 29, 2019

DJ Smith Wish we could get an update. We have a 8 person group that’s about to load up and make a 8-9 hour trip. Would be a little discouraging if we get half way down and have to turn around. Aug 29, 2019

DJ Smith Aug 29, 2019 Well that’s not gonna work out for us. We are headed down in a 12 person van.

Mike Gambini Aug 29, 2019

Gregg stevens How long before the city decides to close the park? Its not really the td's decision.. Aug 29, 2019

Mike Puna I can’t believe this tournament isn’t cancelled by now all fun and games until someone gets hurt to all the disc golfers playing this weekend and staff be safe out there Aug 29, 2019

Ken Bess Anyone else having issues with Hotel's, etc. We just had our Airbnb cancel our reservation for the weekend. We are trying to find something economical to stay, but also don't want to reserve something only to get down there and either the City has closed the parks or the Tournament is cancelled. Aug 29, 2019

Gregg stevens Would be a great idea to start sunday rounds at 630 7 a.m.... Aug 29, 2019

Shawn Penniman Hi Mark I have read the email and the comments on this board but no clear instructions of exactly what the contingency plan is the only thing that was brought up in the email was lightning strikes, I was hoping you could give me and everyone else an idea of what the contingency plans are? Thanks Aug 28, 2019

Mark Janssen Aug 28, 2019 We are not floating any of the discussion out there right now as it will only lead to disinformation and many creating scenarios that then people think are official.

Ken Sapp Aug 29, 2019 someone needs to say something Mark.

Reed Hancock May hit as a category 2 early Monday. Would this only cancel round 5? Aug 28, 2019

Mark Janssen Aug 28, 2019 Wednesday Update: We are still panning to hold the SAC. We appreciate your patience as we work through contingency plans.

Reed Hancock Aug 28, 2019 Thanks! I will be patient as I know this is a lot for you to figure out.

Bryan Kincaid When is the latest to withdraw and get a full refund (minus the processing fees of course)? Aug 28, 2019

Mark Janssen Aug 28, 2019 Please familiarize yourself with the PDGA guidelines. https://www.pdga.com/rules/competition-manual/103

Bryan Kincaid Aug 28, 2019 I submitted my request to withdraw so hopefully I can get a refund.

Mark Janssen Aug 28, 2019 we are receiving all the requests but will be a little behind on processing. All will be time stamped and processed in order.

Brandon Langston Mark.. I need to move to MA3.
I have to work Monday and can only play the weekend. Really do not want to miss this tournament. Aug 27, 2019

Mark Janssen Aug 27, 2019 Looks like with registration shut down you are unable to change divisions using the self service link sent with your registration. Please make all requests via [email redacted]

Davy Reynolds Aug 27, 2019 Will the refund policy be changed due to the incoming weather?

Mark Janssen Aug 27, 2019 We will be taking the local municipalities lead on cancelling the event. We are in contact with the PDGA on best course of action. At this point the event is proceeding as planned.

Jared Smith Are we going to have to pay entrance fee for BFP? Or do tournament players get in free? (Sorry most northern tournaments get the fee waived, just curious) Aug 26, 2019

Mike Gambini Aug 27, 2019 Lmfao welcome to Florida. Get the wallet out!

Joshua Jones Aug 27, 2019 I believe it’s $2 or $4 entry fee to the park.

Mark Janssen Aug 27, 2019 Yes, $2 per person or $4 per car only at Bill Frederick park.

Robert Gillis When will we know what pool we are in for intermediate Aug 25, 2019

Mark Janssen Aug 26, 2019 Most likely on Wed.

Mike Gambini Any news on signs at Parkside? Will the grass be mowed at the Woods course? (It is crazy long in many important spots as of today) Aug 24, 2019

Caleb Flack On T2, there’s multiple short pads. On the website it says no white pads for MA2. That still leaves green and red. Which ones are we playing? Red or green? Aug 23, 2019

Caleb Flack Aug 23, 2019 Or just the shortest concrete tee no matter what color because not every hole has all the tees?

Mark Janssen Aug 23, 2019 no green pads will be played except on 16 for a drop zone. The red are the correct pads on T2

Caleb Flack Aug 23, 2019 Thank you.

Jeff Moore Hey Mark, when I pull up the SAC website it is listed as “unsecured “ and I can not open any of the links. I am using and iPad & iPhone. Any help with this? Anybody having same issue? Aug 21, 2019
