2010 WORLDS

[pdga#7648]

Was at the Iron Horse in Logansport Indiana last weekend. Was told that the 2010 Worlds is about 90% for sure to be in Indiana at Lemon Lake Park. 4 permanent corses in 1 park. I played the Indiana State Championships there last year, and the 2 and a half courses I played were very nice and challenging. Hope they land it there.

2010 Pro Worlds.  Probably closer to 99%.  Am Worlds will be in central Ohio.

Is there any cost for spectators attending the 2010 Pro Worlds?

[pdga#7648]

besides the $4.00 to get into the park, I would say no.

Has Pro Worlds always had a $215 entry fee? That seems a little ridiculous. Was planning on going but that might be a little too much.

It has been that for atleast the last 3 years.  Agreed, thats alot of dough to play disc golf.  Its a tough decision for a lot of local players I'm sure.

I have played Worlds in
2004-Des Moines
2007-Hihghbridge
2008-Kalamazoo
2009-Kansas City

I have had a great time at all 4 events and plan to  play this year. The work that has been done at Lemon Lake getting ready for worlds is pretty awesome. It's going to be a great week of golf. It's well worth the entry fee.

Am Worlds players:

I heard from Chuck on Sunday that they might have to totally revamp the schedule and drop Upper Sandusky out of the mix due to flooding.  The course looked like Elbonia last time we were out there, so I'm not surprised.  Anyway, don't count on the current published schedules being accurate.

Kiralyn and I came in second by one throw in the Mixed Doubles.  We smoked Tiffin in the best shot, -9, and the open pro junior boys under 19 only managed -11, so we felt good about that.  We won our card in the afternoon in the alternating shot at Upper Muddusky, but someone caught us from the third card shooting a very hot +4. 

It was fun.  Second is as good as either of us have ever done.  We both left a few strokes on the course, so no one is blaming the other.

Congrats to Matt "final nine" Travis for killing it at mini golf today.  A 48 is going to be really hard to beat.  Looks like Matt stole a world championship from Wiggans Jr.

I have never seen anyone throw an overhand mini shot so well!

[Dan Michler]

Good luck to the entire Illinois contingent.  Have fun.

I was honored to catch up with a couple of fellow Discontinuum Boys just after the 2010 Am Worlds Player's Meeting.  Check out The Disc Golf Guy's latest video blog on my site:

I also wanted Matt Travis in the video but he insisted on working the camera for us so thank you for that.  We also send a mad shout out to the man, the myth, the legend, Tom McManus.  We miss you here buddy!

Dave and Kenny - have a great time and tear it up.  Nice paper weight for diabetic.  Maybe Kenny will get one for 2010.

[Jon Brakel]

First round scores are starting to come in...

http://www.pdga.com/tournament-results?TournID=9550&year=2010&include_ratings=1#Advanced

There are two David Nelsons in the A pool, but only one of them is "our" David Nelson" and he's the one tied for first after the first round! Kenny G is tied for 4th but only two throws back. Wiggins is starting out a little slow but so much golf left to play.

[discpro99]

Looks like both dave and kenny got off to a great start this morning. keep it up fellas

[Jon Brakel]

Bruce Brakel shot an unofficial 1003 rated round this afternoon to move into third place in his pool after two rounds in Advanced Grand Masters. There's a smaller second pool for AGM also. Nice HOTROUND Bruce!

[Bruce Brakel]

Hey, thanks for watching.  Kiralyn is off to a good start. She's somewhere in the middle of the Fraziers, tied with the best Frazier.
 
It seems like 1000 rated golf and 1-mistake golf are one and the same for me on a good challenging course.  I jacked one drive into the schule for a bogie on an easy par hole, but made all my putts inside the circle and got most of the easy deuces.  My step-through putt outside the circle was working today also. 

I wore my grey felt fedora this afternoon.  It might be lucky.  I'll wear it tomorrow.


O.k., dinner and a fly mart.  I'll check in tomorrow.
