Sorry Dana.  I was kidding about what you were referring to.  I believe that Dave needs 66 points to win the Advanced title. I am happy for you that you can't play advanced.  I am happy where I ended up.  The age restricted titles don't mean that much, winning the Advanced tittle is a big accomplishment.  It is great that three Discontinuum members (Dave Nelson, Matt Travis, and Taylor Cimala)finished in the top five in the Advanced Division. Kenny Glassman is just going to finish outside the top 10, which is pretty amazing since he did not play Bowling Green or AM Nationals.

Tom,

Absolutely.  This is an event to celebrate and acknowledge the accomplishments of all the local players, and while it is not an official Discontinuum event, I thought it would be something nice I could be a part of for the local players.

A low cost fun event that provides players an opportunity to get some additional points and plastic and to get together one more time before the end of the year.

We may not have the nicest courses in the country, but we do have some of the most dedicated, hardcore golfers.
