Officially updated the pre-registration page on the PDGA.

http://www.pdga.com/tournament-results?TournID=8379

Once the page catches up it should show 29.  Guess what?  The largest division is still the Rec division at 9!  Pretty cool if you ask me.  We also have Katie Stauss playing in the OPEN division and her little sister is currently the only Junior registered. 

When do entry fees increase by $10 per person?  Glad you ask - THANKSGIVING NIGHT around 7PM!!!  If you have problems with my website please call me.  I don't check this particular message board daily so please don't rely on this for all questions either.

Thanks everyone!

Looks like it will be nice weather for this time of year. It should be a great time.

Just a few days ago I was stressing about the turn out.  Now, I'm stressing on the opposite way wondering if we'll have to turn people away.  I have taken about 30 registrations in the past 72 hours.  Once the PDGA site catches up with my upload you'll see that we are currently at 60 players. 

Apparently it's go time for both the Rec division as well as the Pro division as those are our two largest fields. 

I have one other quick update and a lesson to share with everyone - UPS does NOT make regular ground deliveries on Friday, the day after Thanksgiving.  I have found that out the hard way as nearly 200 custom stamped, Cold Turkey III discs arrived at the UPS location in Addison, IL late Wed night and they will sit there until SUNDAY NIGHT. 

What does that mean?  Well, a couple of things. 

First and foremost - I am paying an absurd shipping charge and had Innova stamp 50 more Champion Bosses which were over-nighted Wednesday night.  Apparently UPS will deliver international and overnight packages on Friday but not ground packages.  That means, we'll still have the Custom Stamped Champion Boss as part of the player's package as promised.

It also means that come Monday I'll have a TON of custom stamped discs show up at my house.  Those will include DX San Marino Rocs, Champion Boss, Champion Panther, and a few other models.  I won't say they will be on "clearance" but I'll certainly look to work with anyone, especially if buying a handful of items.

And finally, it means that if someone really wants one of those above listed items, we can probably find a way to work things out so that I could get you the product after it arrives on Monday if you are willing to wait.

So although I'm THANKFUL for all of the golfers that are getting registered as well as THANKFUL for Innova going above and beyond to help me out, I'm less thankful for UPS to not let me pick up that package in Addison, or work with me some other way to make this happen.

Registration fees go up by $10 on Thanksgiving Night.  Get signed up before then.  If you can't process your card through my site, call me and we could possibly process it over the phone.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Read his post, UPS would not let him pick up the package. NO ONE could get the package.

Hey there everyone! As per tourney tradition - Brock is here with me at Applebee's helping me enter scores so we can get them posted online. As I've mentioned before, there is a slight lag in stuff getting officially posted but it should be up literally any minute.

Here is the link: http://www.pdga.com/tournament-results?TournID=8379

Thanks again to all of the volunteers that assisted so this thing could be pulled off.

I still don't know how you manage to run the event, take care of all the things in the morning, don't throw a disc until just before the two minute warning and end up winning. Please share Master Terry  :notworthy:

Great weather for a great turnout.

Thanks again to Terry and the LDS crew for putting together another fun event.

Congrats to Terry for winning open and to Serg for winning advanced.  Good call by Terry to not add an additional hole. There was just enough daylight to get in two rounds of 18.  There were about 10 people turned away.

Fun times!  The CTPs that you gave away for each division were great.  Even gave away one for the pro division!

Thanks again, Terry. 

Vibram Disc Golf, Ledgestone Insurance, Paragon and Whirld Sports are all cool. Real cool.
