Will the report get finalized for this tournament today in order to make the ratings update tomorrow?

God I hope not... wasn't my best showing lol

Andrew Hypes   April 10, 2023 at 7:28pm

Thanks for bringing that to my attention. Report was finalized last Tuesday so I frankly have no idea why it magically went back to being unfiled. Report has been filed again and sincere apologies if the ratings don't appear tomorrow but I'll be blunt when I say blame the PDGA because that's a rather egregious technical error on their part.

Clinton Pelfrey   April 10, 2023 at 10:35pm

I don't see what's wrong?

Geoff Bennett    April 2, 2023 at 10:19pm

Where can I find out the payouts? Did I miss out on a trophy?

Does any cell carrier actually have service at Paint Creek or Hillsboro? Last time I was out 2 or 3 years ago t-mobile and ATT didn't work. Currently I have Spectrum/Verizon.

Last year at PC campground we had little to no signal. On the course we had some signal.

Dan Elmeier   March 30, 2023 at 10:57am

We have Verizon.

Scott Jenkins   March 30, 2023 at 7:42pm

Ok. Thanks.

Quinten Seiter    March 29, 2023 at 7:51pm

Hey, I'm not seeing any times or cards for this weekend. Did an email go out and I missed it?

A A Ron Deubner   March 29, 2023 at 10:29am

Sorry, email recvd for Saturday info.

Zach Harrah    March 29, 2023 at 1:54am

I noticed that on the pdga page it says ma1 will be playing the black jack layout, which I would assume is paint creek? Just looking for clarification as it says in the about section on this page that Ma1 plays veterans first.

Andrew Hypes   March 29, 2023 at 11:46am

Yeah admittedly I'm not sure why but "Blackjack Layout" does indeed mean Paint Creek

Kevin Keister    March 28, 2023 at 8:27pm

Thanks for the quick refund, sorry I had to bow out.

Andrew Hypes   March 28, 2023 at 11:33pm

For sure and no worries Kevin. Hope you can make it out for next year!

bobby jones    March 28, 2023 at 8:19pm

Is there any video of these courses for to vagabonds from NY?

On hole four I noticed that the OB flags were after the path will players be required to make it past the path?

Andrew Hypes   March 28, 2023 at 6:16pm

Yes that hole will function as a par 4 and an island hole with the island starting about 230 feet off the tee. Should you fail to land in the island there's a drop zone in the fairway where you would take your 3rd shot

Clinton Pelfrey   March 28, 2023 at 11:00pm

Lol the flags are over 300+ from the tee pad. Good luck lady's and JRs

Brent Rosen   March 29, 2023 at 12:00pm

Like Andrew said the flags start about 230 feet from the tee. I can confirm from checking with my range finder yesterday.

Quinten Seiter    March 28, 2023 at 7:03am

Just wondering if we can request an earlier tee time. I have to be at work back in cincy at 6pm

Andrew Hypes   March 28, 2023 at 6:17pm

Yep I have you down for an 11 AM tee time

Ashleh Baumann    March 27, 2023 at 5:05pm

Any thoughts on what divisions will be first to tee? Wondering how early ill need to wake up for commuting each day :)

Clinton Pelfrey   March 28, 2023 at 2:40am

I second this question. Be nice to know for work schedule purposes also

Justin Sartin   March 28, 2023 at 7:37pm

Actually there are quite a few hotels in Hillsboro.... which is quite a bit closer to Bainbridge where Paint is... and the other course is in Hillsboro itself.

bobby jones   March 29, 2023 at 1:26pm

We are at the Paragon Inn in Hillsboro. Reasonable price and close to both courses

Matt Guerra   March 30, 2023 at 3:56pm

Thanks guys, appreciate it!

Ian Johnson    March 17, 2023 at 1:51am

Is it possible to not accept cash at this event and what would the alternative be?

Permalink
Andrew Hypes   March 17, 2023 at 2:08am

For sure. If you cash in MPO you can accept merchandise instead, exactly like how the am divisions get paid out.

Ian Johnson   March 17, 2023 at 2:10am

Thank you sir!
