Jessica Partridge November 18 at 12:14am

Two questions:
Are there specific parking areas or instructions at the various locations?
Can guests bring their dogs?
Please excuse if these have already been asked. Thank you.

Not really specific parking and I don't think dogs can follow cards
Nathan Olinger November 17 at 2:56pm
I saw tee times posted for MA4 and it says “Stonebridge Lonestar Championship” so I assume that means first round at Stonebridge, yes? With that said though I am confused because the tee time is at 9:30ish and I saw a comment about not arriving before 1PM at Stonebridge? Please advise

The Stonebridge limit is only on Sunday due to the church services. TD will need to answer other questions.

Stonebridge will be open Saturday, tee times are correct. I tee there myself at 10, see you there!

The comments above are correct. The time limit does not apply on Saturday
Nathanael Morrissey November 17 at 2:27am
2 900 plus rated players in ma3. Is this allowed?

Ok. Thanks Austin my friend. Where is hq? I couldn't find where that was posted.

Sheldon Jefferson,
The MA50 scorecard on the PDGA app list the 2nd Round at McDade Park.
The DGS website’s About page list MA50 (in E Pool) playing at Stonebridge/Bear Park.
So which one is it? Asking for 19 friends…????
Heath H November 16 at 7:01pm
Jeremy, Sanchez MPO 40 will not be able to make it due to family emergency

Please have jeremy request refund through DG scene. If he goes into the event and click his name, he will see the option for a refund. Have him do that as soon as possible for processing reasons.
Ashton Harris November 16 at 3:13pm
Why is one pool (D Pool) showing shotgun at 8:30 on saturday? Is that a placeholder until things get sorted? When can we expect final tee times and or starting holes since they keep changing this week?
Aaron Campbell
November 16 at 5:54pm
These changes don't allow the players playing stonebridge on Sunday a chance to catch MPO...Not a fan of any of these "Changes"
Sheldon Jefferson

Cool thing is that we can watch MPO Saturday and FPO Sunday
Jimmy Martinez November 16 at 2:49pm
Hello Sheldon Jefferson. I’ve posted a couple comments about the tournament. Looking for info/answers about payout. It would be nice to get some kind of answer rather than ignoring me. Thanks.

I sent you a message through Disc Golf Scene. Feel free to call the shop 936-539-0008

They choose to add more cash to mpo and fpo instead of by registered players in all pro divisions. It's just a b tier so they can do this because the minimum $750 is added in other pro divisions. Many age protected pros wouldn't have signed up if they had advertised this. Unfortunately they didn't and so we're stuck having to play because we can't get refunds on airbnbs and such.

The issue is, using pdga projected payout he has players packs in there, this deducts that figure of 30 per player from entry fees in the calculations and payout is off. $3 pdga fee, he already said no greens fees to players, but if you look only 117 each is going to entry fees instead of 147, once this adjustment is corrected, hopefully it will be, all will be correct...ish.
Cade Woolley November 16 at 3:22am
Saw that tee times were posted. It shows the last few cards of MA1 teeing off after 3 pm, is that correct? Is there concern about finishing the round with enough sunlight?
Sheldon Jefferson
November 16 at 11:59am
Hoping it's not a concern. The MA1 guys should be able to cruise. If it becomes an issue we will be adjusting Sunday tee times as needed
Anthony Crowley November 16 at 2:17am

The pro added cash only adds up to $4177, not $10000. Link to projected payout. https://www.pdga.com/apps/tournament/manager/payouts_projected?TournID=72022
Shows pros getting players packs as well so not sure that is correct either.

I agree, more transparency could have avoided misunderstandings. In most cases, all tournaments directors are doing this, no matter the tier level without announcing it. where the female divisions are receiving a higher percentage than the male division. This is not communicated or announced. Player ... more

For me personally I signed up because the projected payout for mp40 was $1,500 for 1st, $1,038 for 2nd, and $750 for 3rd. That was with 20 people signed up. Now at 24 people signed up the 1st place is only worth $994. I have screen shots of the projected payout from when I signed up. Now it's way different.
Sheldon Jefferson
November 17 at 12:08am
Adam, I didnt know the projected payout was live weeks ago. It wasnt my intention to have it live until I knew it was finalized.
Clayton Mitte November 15 at 6:46pm
What do we do if we are unable to check in at HQ before our teetime on Saturday?
Mitchell Elder
November 16 at 7:33am
will we be able to pick up players pack after round on saturday or sunday? I wont be able to make it to hq before friday due to work.
Sheldon Jefferson
November 16 at 11:52am
Yes, HQ & the Pro Shop will be open to pick up players pack s Sat/ Sun
Zach Farrington November 15 at 6:28pm
I suspect that the layout for MA1 at John Burge Park is going to be the familiar layout, and not a tournament specific layout - is that correct?
Sheldon Jefferson

YES!!! All traditional tees. McDade Lone Star Disc Championship Layout Hole 1 - Ob road and beyond, parking lot. Hole 4 - Path left and beyond and right and beyond. Hole 5 - OB sidewalk left and beyond. Painted line right and beyond and behind OB. Hole 7 – No mando, OB road and beyond. Ho ... more

How early can we show up to practice panorama, or at least walk it? 1-4 is posted for dbls, but thats a short period of time for everyone to squeeze in there.
Sheldon Jefferson
November 15 at 4:16pm
There is always a possibility that everything is ready to go earlier, but we can't count on that. We get the course Thursday at Noonish and have to put all the baskets, turf tees, OB out. I'll keep everyone posted through the Facebook group.
Thanks for the shout out! Pleasure to see you and all the other players out there having a positive experience
