Brett,
I know you described it earlier somewhere, but could you repost the description for 4A?
I'm making a big assumption that 18A might be like it was for Prairie Open (perpendicular to #18 along the building - and if it is, you might mention that the road is OB as well), but what/where is 18B?
6A is like IOS last yr so I remember that.

4A-> After hole #4 you will walk across the street like you are heading to #5's long tee.. The tee will be near Wood Road. The hole will run between the sidewalk and inner loop road. The basket will be elevated on the 2nd or 3rd ??? cement block. I can't remember which is in that 300ft range.
6A-> Same as last year
18A-> Very similar to Prarie Open. Tee will be on the sidewalk.
18B-> The tee will be back near the practice basket. The temp basket will be located near inner loop road on the slope.
18B similar to the one last year then - ?

Basket will be in a similar positoin. The tee will be farther back.
Also, if super long tee #8 is still under water the long tee will be played both rounds on the Adv/Pro day.
I was playing around with the new Google my maps feature: Let me know if I got the course routing correct.

Mike has updated this map. You can get a good idea of what the alternate holes will play like on this map. Thanks Mike!
For IOS #1, I assume that there is a nice marsh in the woods on the left side of the fairway for 5. Last year I think this was casual water. This should be added to the notes for holes 5 (& maybe 6). I would recommend this as a special conditions area with a drop zone as it is usually impractical to go back 5m on LOP.
One more to consider for IOS #1 Course information. This is a quote from Jon last year.
QuoteUntil Bruce told me about it later I wasn't even aware that a player could do manage to throw into that pipe even if they were trying! If we play that same basket placement next year, I will declare that inside the pipe is not the playing surface and that the player will mark on top of the ground without penalty--unless their disc has gone so far into the pipe as to be under the road. The road is OB so therefore when they mark above their disc would be OB. I will waste my time siting this incident at the player's meeting where no one pays attention and no one will ever throw in there again.
I have updated the attachments on the first post.
Updated accurate distances on the alternates.
On Saturday Adv/Pro will play short tee Rd 1 & long tee Rd 2. Super long is under water.
Also added sidewalk on #17 is OB.
Last year there was a freak shot that went into the culvert on hole #4. If that happens you will play your shot from the opening of the culvert with no penalty.
Water is casual on holes #5 & 6.

That would make the inside of the pipe a Chuck Kennedy Casual Relief Area! ;D I'm fine with that. It is a more objective place to play from than trying to estimate how far into the pipe you are for vertical relief. And the pipe is not an intended obstacle. It is only a little wider than a disc.
Are Pro/Adv playing all the short tees for one round, or were you just talking about the short tee for hole 8?
I made Brett's sheet into one page for each day. Does anyone have access to cheap or free copies? It would be nice to have 110 of each to hand out at registration. I'll make a few in case any of the deaf guys make it up to this event. If anyone will make copies for us please post here so we don't kill too many trees! :)

Only short tee that is being played on Adv/Pro day is #8 since super long #8 is under water.

It would be really nice if the info was just on the flip side of the score card. Only need 44/day that way.
i made copies and will bring them to the tournament.
Thank you Dan. I would have made copies and forgotten to bring them! :lol:

I think there quite a few players that would like to know the distance and OB on each hole. While putting the info on the back of each score card assures that each group can figure out routing, etc. it doesn't put the info in each hand of each person in the group on every hole.
Here's my version of Brett's course routing guide with each day as one page and both pages in the same file.
Jon and Brett
Thanks for the routing sheet. How far does one have to drive to make it to the imaginary island on 18?
Not far (<100 ft). Unless you really shank one with a bad hyzer stall on a stiff headwind (or hit a tree, or take a bad roll, etc.), you'll make it.
You can see it very clearly here:

Wow, that map is sweet! I can see exactly where the alternates will be on that thing. Impressive.
There is a difference of 60 feet from the short tee to the basket compared to the long tee to the basket. I would say being conservative that making it over the sidewalk is 50 to 75ft at the longest. Making the island should not be a problem unless you hit the tree or light pole on the left side. The right side is pretty open. This island really comes into affect from the long tee when attempting rollers from the long tee or throwing past the basket from the short tee.
Hole 18B will be getting a makeover Friday. It has to be changed due to some trees being removed. I want to thank Sergio for letting me know. Sergio also tried to get clearance for the "Survivor Island Hole" but it was too busy of a weekend to have the road closed for the weekend. You may want to thank UWP because that hole may have produced some huge numbers. It would have been a tough par 4 with major meltdown potential. I will have 18B marked around 4pm on Friday.
Attached is the course information for IOS #2 @ Lombard
Hey Brett--
Just an FYI on some of the tees, over the past year Lombard PD (and Mike K. and I'm not sure who else) went out and installed cement tees for all of the grass tee holes (excluding the temp holes that you have). So holes 5, 10, 15, and 16 all have a cement tee to throw from now, yay. :)
Any updates yet on alternate holes for IOS#2 Lombard?
does anybody know the address of Madison Meadows? I gotta mapquest this sucker.
E Madison St & S Lewis Ave, Lombard, Illinois 60148
Madison Meadows (http://www.amctrl.com/cgi-bin/DiscGolfPage.cgi?id=50)
The following is a google map of the Madison Meadow Park with the course routing for the disc golf course. It does not include the additional holes that we will play for the tournament.

I think the plan is for two rounds of 20 at Lombard. Maybe Brett is bringing extra baskets in case there is a big turn out. Brett and Jon know for sure.

The Elves have ruled. We are playing two rounds of 20 holes. The two TBD holes will not be played this year. We'll play the permanent 19 plus the "grill" hole.
played nice today

Is that gonna stay up, Mike? Am I safe linking to it? Thanks.
You should be safe linking to it. I added what I believe is the 20th hole that will be used for the IOS.

Yep, that's the one...unless Brett needs to change it for some reason.
Dan,
Could you print 100 of these at work? See attached.
Quote from: Jon Brakel on May 16, 2007, 07:40:48 PM
I have a version that fits on one page if you can print .5" margins.
I did some modifications. Basically removed the grass tees from the descriptions since all the white tees are now cement.
OK, now I have a one page version if you can print .5" boarders.
I found this post from last year. There are a couple of changes from last year in bold.
It is very difficlut to describe where each tee will be placed. I will do my best.
#1 (Far left under pine tree just in front of the tee sign)
#2 (Far left & back)
#3 (Back half of tee to the flat part on the right)
#4 (Back towards the walking path, there is a dirt area that is in a low area. There is a stump that marks the tee. It's the old #4 before the tee sign was moved.)
#5 (Anywhere flat)
#6 (Back half on flat ground)
#7 (Moved back & left making hyzer thru woods. Thumber or Tommy will be blocked by the trees hanging overhead.)
#8 (Back & left side of pad)
#9 (Back & left of tee sign in line with the trees that split the fairway)
#10 (Back right corner of pad)
#11 (Back half of tee pad)
#12 (Left of the tree stump)
#13 (Right behind tree stump)
#14 (Middle & even with tee sign)
#15 (Back half & right side of tee pad)
#16 (Back half & left side of pad)
#17 (Back half of tee pad)
#18 (Grass tee pad near the rough about 30 feet from #17's tee pad)
#19 (Tee near dog park & tree line throwing to cut out by unused exercise equipment) 325 ft (Same as last year.)
The #20 that was played last year is not playable. It is under water and the grass is waist deep. That area is no longer being mowed.
From #19 basket walk along the softball field fence to the north.
#20 (Tee in the middle of the fairway about 50ft in front of the wooded area. This will be a tough 3 to get and is a par 4. The tall grass plays along the right hand side & it's a big dogleg to the right. The basket will be placed on top of the hill near the tree area. 660 ft. Your first drive will have to be straight. From there you will have to decide (depending on distance of 1st shot) to hyzer over tall grass, throw straight, or anhyzer.
#21 (Tee is west of #20's basket playing to mound across the field. About 550ft.) Another tough 3. Another par 4. Slightly different than last year. The tee is near the unused soccer field west of new #20's basket. The basket will be set on top of the hill but it's been cut down quite a bit.
As of today #20 & #21 are marked with flags. #19 is exactly the same as last year. Tee near dog park along woods with basket set up near the fitness equipment.
Are there hole lengths available anywhere for this course?
Jon, can you post the scorecard?
Lippold Park score card. Don't know how I managed to attach that twice. They were both the same file if any one was confused.
Attached is the information for Aurora. Can someone double check this. We also need to get some copies out.

Done. How many copies? Can I compress to fit on one page?

Maybe 50 copies? That way each card has one for the morning round.
Sure, compress & format to your likings.
Thanks!!!
My pleasure! I'll have 'em there tomorrow morning.

The way it is setup you can just change it to portrait and reduce the margins to .75" and it will fit on one page.
Thanks, Jon. My printer accepts 0.3" margins so I can fit it landscape if I widen the table about 5 characters (makes row 3 two lines).
Do we have a course routing/scorecard for Fairfield yet?

I think we are running the same course as last year (with some changes in yellow rope) but am waiting for confirmation from Brett before I make score cards.
