The 2024 Blackjack Open Presented by Dynamic Discs

Andrew Lefevre Thanks for a great tournament Andrew! May 1, 2024

Andrew Hypes May 2, 2024 Thanks a lot brother. It was quite the struggle at times but I think we came out the other side well and I’m super happy it brought people joy.

Andrew Hypes Hey everyone that played Pike Lake,

Park ranger called me today and said someone left a temporary basket near the shelter by #1's tee. If this was you, you aren't in trouble, but they need it gone by tomorrow night so grab it unless you want it tossed. Thanks. Apr 29, 2024

Luke McKinnes Left an eclipse hex with a pink rim on hole 7 (down hill shot) at pike lake today in case anyone happened to go over and found it. Appreciate it. Apr 27, 2024

Andrew Hypes Round 2 tee times are up. I’ll publish payout info here in a few hours. Apr 27, 2024

Ian Silverman Anybody find a red Westside Bear at paint creek? Apr 27, 2024

Austin Hatfield Apr 27, 2024 Our group did. Believe it was turned in after our round, they may have it tomorrow.

Andrew Hypes Apr 27, 2024 Yeah it was left at Hocking Hills’s set up

Greg James Anyone find a pink heat on the 3rd hole played at Veterans today? Btw, Is there a lost disc deposit box? Apr 27, 2024

Andrew Hypes

Ronald C Godbey Apr 30, 2024 A Big THANK YOU to the Donato's crew for the great menu. It made the trip home a little better.

Jaden Phillips What’s the tournament plan in the case of a hurricane?? Thanks Apr 25, 2024

Billy Whitacre Apr 26, 2024 Last year we played through it! No lightning though, just insane winds.

Silas Backus Wish I would have read this before I put two in the lake yesterday in my practice round. Dyed Cap Rap and Proto Malta in there if anyone goes in to retrieve discs. Apr 25, 2024

Clinton Pelfrey Apr 25, 2024 I'll see if I can get out there to rake it in the next 2 days

Silas Backus Apr 25, 2024 Thank you it was a black dyed cap rap and a pink proto Malta.

Clinton Pelfrey Apr 26, 2024 Didn't find any yesterday. Sorry

Aaron 'Sizzle' Carroll Practiced the courses yesterday and I noticed that parking might be an issue. Any suggestions on where to park at Paint Creek and Pike Lake? Apr 25, 2024

Andrew Hypes Apr 25, 2024

As it pertains to Paint Creek, there's the lot near holes #6 and #7 that can fit another 12-15 cars. ... show more ›

Kevin Fodrey Asking here in case anyone else had the same question. With holes 2, 3 and 4 out of play for Vets, Will there be 3 temp holes added and if so, will they be set up Friday to practice?

Thanks! Apr 25, 2024

Kevin Fodrey Apr 25, 2024 Terrific, thank you! A UDisc map of the tournament layout would be amazing if possible

Clinton Pelfrey Apr 25, 2024 Pike will only be 18?

Andrew Hypes Apr 25, 2024 Sure, I'll try to see what I can do in terms of illustrating the layout. And yes, Pike is the normal 18 hole layout

Andrew Hypes

Hey everyone, sorry that info has been delayed. Everything's still looking good but I've had to extinguish a lot of fires this week and I don't want to transmit any info that might be incorrect. That ... show more ›

Stuart Fanko Apr 24, 2024 Reiterating Dan, thank you. Clearly there’s some lack of patience here, thank you for hosting what will surely be a great event.

Logan Hines Apr 26, 2024 I signed up as of yesterday was this email already sent out?? Also Thank you for hosting this event!!

Andrew Hypes Apr 26, 2024 Yeah the email was already sent out but send me an email at theblackjackopen(at)gmail.com and I’l send it to you this evening

Andy Watkins I get absolutely zero cell reception anywhere at Pike Lake. Will paper score cards be provided and will this work considering the PDGA wants you to use the app now? Apr 22, 2024

Luke McKinnes Apr 23, 2024 You could always type the score into a notepad or google keep app on your phone that requires no reception and then enter it once you have service again.

Andy Watkins Apr 23, 2024 To get service again I would need to drive 5-10 miles away. I have Verizon. The service is non-existent out there.

Andrew Hypes Apr 23, 2024 Yes, paper cards will be available and that's allowed by the PDGA

Kevin Fodrey Do we have a course schedule yet?

Driving down Friday to play the courses for the first time, and I’d like to know which courses MPO will be playing and what days.

Thanks, Apr 22, 2024

Tim secoy I played pike lake today does the park plan on cleaning it up before the tournament. Apr 21, 2024

Trevor penrod Quick question! I am first on the waitlist and was wondering if someone has to drop in my division so I can play or is it anyone in the entire field? Apr 18, 2024

Joshua Grueser Apr 6, 2024 Awesome thank you I just talked to them today I have a motor home Just wondering if somebody might be able to give me a ride to the other course I play MA4 but might get moved up to ma3

Dusty Daugherty Apr 7, 2024 Pike lake is a campground as well. They are both state parks.

Joshua Grueser Apr 15, 2024 Awesome I'll be at pike that Friday!

Ethan Owens Are MA1 and MPO playing the same layouts on the same day this year? I see that last year they played opposite courses Mar 28, 2024

Andrew Hypes Mar 29, 2024 Yes that's right same schedule

David Highlands Mar 23, 2024 Tee times

Luke Campbell If I could request a later tee time that would be wonderful! I work until 10:30am and would not like to drop. Thank you! Feb 28, 2024

Luke McKinnes Seems like with the extra spots opening up, we got the go ahead on the other course. Is that right? When will we know which divisions play what? Feb 8, 2024

Andrew Hypes Feb 8, 2024

I'll let everyone know in a couple weeks when we have a better idea of what divisions have more play ... show more ›

Scott Jenkins Feb 15, 2024 So.. if the course is added everyone won't play all the courses? Or just a question of what day is what?

Andrew Hypes If you're considering hopping aboard the waitlist, please do as you'll have about a 98% chance of being promoted to the field. I'm still waiting on Pike Lake to give me the official go-ahead but once that happens I can open up a lot of spots. Feb 5, 2024
