Hello all,
I will be running the night golf event. As mentioned there will be Nite Ize for sale at the fly mart.
I will also be selling packs of 3LEDs/button batteries for $5 and 2 packs of Flights (flat lights) for $8.
For the event we will be playing from the GREEN tees (Shorts). Each basket will have a light ring on them and each tee pad will have glow sticks indicating their location.
If you have any other questions please post below.

Reluctantly, Team Pines (Trevor Murphy, Andrew Burk, Bill Scully, Nanette Ruggles) will have to kindly withdraw from the event at this time. If refunds could be made to the appropriate accounts in a timely manner that would be greatly appreciated.

I'm sorry that it worked out this way, and I wish that you and your team would be playing. I'll process refunds today.

We are 44 days away from the 5th edition of the Throwdown Hoedown Disc Golf Symposium! There are at least three teams on the waitlist for the Throwdown part of the weekend, so if any teams are thinking that they may have to withdraw, please let J. Gary know of your intentions sooner rather than later.
Entry fees would be refunded if the spot is filled from the waitlist. Any peeps on the waitlist that don't get into the tournament will be refunded.
Tricia L January 23, 2019 at 6:48pm
If any teams need a lady to complete their ideal team, I'm available. :-)
Jesse Haffey January 12, 2019 at 2:33am
We have a 4 person team thats not the ideal roster. Can we preregister for the waitlist ahead of the Jan. 17th opening?

Any chance of the playing field getting expanded like it did the last time or our we just stuck waiting for a team to drop out now?
J. Gary Dropcho
January 21, 2019 at 10:15pm
The field is already expanded to 24-teams. We won't be able to add any more than 6 temp holes to the course and get 48 holes of play done in one day!

I don't know how to predict how much movement there will be from the waitlist, but we are 8 weeks out and things do happen. Entry fees will be refunded if Disc-respectful doesn't get in.

The Throwdown tournament on Saturday is limited to 96 players — 24 teams with 4 player rosters. Ideal teams have a Woman, Master (age40+), Rec, and Open (not necessary to be “pro”).

Can you please change the name of our team to the correct spelling of “deuces”
J. Gary Dropcho

Greg, I assume you want to play the Rec spot on the Dropping Deuces roster?
Gregory easton January 3, 2019 at 4:03am
DO you have to register as a team or can you sign up individually?
James Johnson J. Gary Dropcho
January 3, 2019 at 4:06pm
Do you have an ideal team (woman, master, rec, open)? Those teams can register first starting Jan 3-17. Registration for all other teams, including less-than-ideal rosters who will play with a handicap, opens January 17 at 8 pm. Team members can register separately, but must all register under th ... more
perhaps a dumb question but i have a couple of nite-ize discs from a couple years ago. Is the battery easily replaceable? Or is it just easier to buy new ones?
