Greater Milwaukee Open - PDGA B-Tier - May 23 / 24

[discglfr]

I just wanted to put it out there that registrations are already starting to pour in for this event. In the past few days I have taken more than a dozen registrations.

As always, you are welcome to mail them into me with my address being 360 Park Hill Drive, Unit E, Pewaukee, WI 53072 or you can get it taken care of online. That site is www.iRegisteredOnline.com

Here is Saturday's existing list (18 as of 5/5/09):

Here is Sunday's existing list (7 as of 5/5/09):

I'm thinking about adding a Novice division on Sunday as well. As always, I'll offer any additional divisions that are not shown assuming we get at least 4 people to play in that new division.

Is there anything specific we make our checks out to? or just to you Terry?

[discglfr]

Yes sir,

Please just make the checks out to Terry Miller.  Address is 360 Park Hill Drive, Unit E, Pewaukee, WI 53072 (so you don't have to search for it). 

I will also provide this nifty little teaser - I am currently working the a player's pack item that has never been given away before at tournament.  The manufacturer is pushing really hard to make it happen so I'm keeping my fingers crossed as well.  I'll say that it is one of the most unique player's pack item anyone has ever seen and I could give 100 guesses and I don't think anyone would come up with it. 

Hopefully more to come on that later.

I'm also working on a few other event details.  The County Parks Department and our club have a good relationship.  Hopefully they come through for us with this event as well. . 

Thank you to everyone that is getting signed up in person, via mail, or online.  It doesn't hurt my feelings to not use my online registration (www.iRegisteredOnline.com).  I just ask that you 'git-r-done' one way or another!

I'll be heading up for this one. Just sent in the registration.

Can't wait! 

[discglfr]

Although it will cost a bunch of money - we have secured BOTH Dretzka Park & Brown Deer Park for this year's Greater Milwaukee Open! 

Seriously - how does it get better than this?  Order of rounds and pin placements are not finalized but I can promise you this - everyone will play one round at Dretzka and one round at Brown Deer! 

Player's meeting is at Dretzka regardless of division or which course you're playing first ... again, player's meeting is at Dretzka at 9 am on each respective day. 

Get registered immediately!

Also, the Greater Milwaukee Open will be 1 of the 3 part series to qualify for the WI USDGC Representative Spot.  More details to come within the next day or two.  The long and short is that the GMO, Badger State Games, and Mad City Open will be the qualifiers as we take your best 2 of 3 point earnings from those events.  Again, more details to come soon.

Thanks,


Here is Saturday's existing list (32 as of 5/11 which is up from 18 as of 5/5/09):

I looked on the website but could not find the Entry Fee for Intermediate Men.  Can somebody help me out?

[discglfr]

Saturday's Divisions:
$60   Open
$50   Pro Masters
$50   Pro Grand Masters
$50   Pro Women
$50   Advanced Men


Sunday's Divisions:
$40   Advanced Masters
$40   Advanced Grandmasters
$30   Advanced Women
$30   Intermediate Men
$30   Intermediate Women
$30   Recreational
$30   Novice
$20   Juniors (16 and under)


** Just added - Novice.  I have never offered a Novice division before and wasn't planning on it but I thought I'd give it a chance.  There is a pretty sweet player's package that would eat up all of the entry fee if I had it any cheaper so in order to have some prizes, I made the Nov and Rec divisions each $30.

If you register online for this event it will be $5 more than what is seen above.

[discglfr]

Am I missing a division that you and at least 3 other buddies qualify for?  You round up the people and I'll create the division.  That is true for almost all of my events. 

Thanks!

Log in and its in the drop down menu under "Level".

[discglfr]

One small glitch they still haven't fixed on my site is the fact that you must create a username and login in order to see the prices for events.  THIS WILL BE CHANGED at some point but for people that don't want to create a username and password just for that purpose, I figured it would be easiest to just post the actual amounts.  I have no idea why my programmers thought this would be a good way to set it up initially but like I said, it will eventually get changed so you can view event prices without having an account already in place.

Thanks guys,

Ter

Just thought I'd point out that the Milwaukee Open is also an Am Nationals qualifier.  I'm on the Am Nationals e-mail list.  This is the latest from the TD:

Things are starting to get close. Players are regging. We are all but out of Buzzz glowee's but still have the Cryztal Buzzz color change plastic. We are sending out the second round of invites though the pdga.

Player package is awesome - discs, towels, mini, polo shirt with two emblems, their picture on a Buzzzz. 7 meals. Great times ahead. Pass it on.

It is important to us if you last 10 or so event Td's can pass on phone numbers or e-mails of your qualifiers to me. Other than your announcements it will be the only way of contacting those who qualify. Thanks for your help here.

If someone wants to try and buddy up for the trip and room but does not know of someone in their area, we can help with this.

This will be the next to last e-mail to all you Td's and I would like to truly thank all those that helped me gather info. Hope to see some of you at the USADGC this year and make sure to stop by and say hi.

Just a reminder, you have to play Advanced to qualify.  This is the math for how many qualify:  Top 20%, rounding up to include the fractional player.  That many qualify, skipping over players who qualified elsewhere, and including all players tied for the last qualifying spot. 

[OvEr HaNd AsSaSiN]

This event is great for trying to qualify for Nats.  I wont be missing this tourney. Im already qualified for nats.. side note last year i think i finished 24th place and qualified, so come qualify...

[javy16]

yeah matt im going to really try.  But hey if i qualify would grayson and i be able to car pool with you maybe?

[tacimala]

As a side note - if you want to play am nats, but didn't qualify, come out the day before and play a round. The standards for qualifying seem to change every year and until it starts to fill, they won't turn away people that want to pay to qualify.

And on that second note, if you have ever wanted to play that course, do it. It's awesome, it's an ass kicker and you will have fun regardless of how you play. It may not be there every year.

[OvEr HaNd AsSaSiN]

we got a full car as of now.. but if you guys wanted to take your own car and stay at the same hotel that would be cool.. thats what we did last year we had two cars and two hotel rooms... let me know

[discglfr]

Brown Deer and Dretzka are two of the finest courses in all of Wisconsin and everyone gets to play one round at each for this event.  Get yourselves registered! 

Looks like we'll have custom Discraft and custom Innova discs for the event.  Also, that super secret item yet!  You will not be disappointed with the player's package for this event.  Not that I hope you ever are with any of my events but this one should be unique (as claimed before).

This should be a great event.  Two very fun courses.  Terry, how many holes will we be playing at Dretzka?
