seems to be working just fine now

Were the results from the Warped Disc Golf Open never submitted to the PDGA? I don't see it in the current ratings update.

[pdga#7648]

I dont think they got them turned in on time??

[blackandwhite]

i also dont have the warped open, nor the shot down in flames tournaments

[pickax]

Shot Down in Flames occurred after the deadline for this ratings update.

Ouch, I'm down 16 points from a year ago. Guess I shouldn't expect otherwise since I'm at the office on a nice Saturday instead of out playing!

[Dan Michler]

Ulibarri with an unofficial 1107 at the Hambrick last weekend on his way to a 9 throw NT victory.  Huge!  He shot a 40 that round.  I would like to play the course to get a feel for how good that is.

[Bruce Brakel]

I don't know which of the 27 holes they use when they play 18, but I always felt like par was a good round out there.  The year I was tied for the lead in Advanced I think I shot par.  I'll go check...

[Bruce Brakel]

On the 27 hole layout I was tied for the lead with a +5 or 86 and it was 949 rated.  There are several holes that the PDGA would call par 4s at PDGA run tournaments.  I think there are a lot of scoring opportunities on that course if you have the pro distance. 

Between that course and Delaware State Park, which has a tournament coming up soon, there's some really good disc golf down that way, and plenty of filler courses to fill out a long weekend.  Alum Creek is pretty good too.

Wow.  Kelsey is now 926.  No wonder she beats me all the time.  She is now the highest rated amateur woman ever, I believe.

The highest rated woman of all time hardly has time to play anymore also! If she goes on to veterinary school she may never play again!!! 

[Bruce Brakel]

If you look at the stats in her data base and add one practice round per tournament, that is how much disc golf she plays, except for the occasional family disc golf vavationstravaganza.

[blackandwhite]

I didnt go up because 4 of my tournament rounds from an aces and chains tournament didnt get turned in, nor did one of my warped disc tournaments

[Bruce Brakel]

Kelsey is in South Africa right now, working on sequencing the genome of various hornedbill bird species.  The research apparently has immediate practical applications aimed towards saving the species from extinction.  She wrote me this morning to say that when she is a veterinarian she hopes to have more time to play. 

Unless some day there is serious money in this game for pro women, she intends to continue playing amateur for a very long time.  She is currently tied for 14th highest rated woman in the world, if you count the broken toe when counting on your toes.  She hopes to play Am Worlds next summer in the MA1 division. 

[Note: Apparently you do NOT count the broken toe!]

Dana is up over a 1000 and Steven at 976. Very nice.  Stan- I owe you a disc. I think I have an old chewed up nerf frisbee packed away somewhere for you.

[DaBus85]

I went up 40 points.  First year playing sanctioned tourneys.  First one was horrible last couple havemt been as bad

[stpitner]

Woohoo!  I went up 19 to 819.  That's the highest I've been since 2009.  It makes a big difference in my game when my back isn't hurting!

[damonshort]

I can't seem to crack the 900 ceiling. The rounds at Worlds got downgraded a little but I can't argue with that. If Sunday's rounds at Joliet got in today (not likely) I might get there for a minute.
