So I guess we are not going to wait till spring to have this event... nice call Dennis, there is a c-teir going on 30 minutes away on the same day.

[skipache]

yes , i guess i prioritize my events based on sanctioned or not , i will be going to waukegan that day but up to parkside for Cold Turkey II

[shawn]

Yep it is still happening...  I will be cooking out over by the apartments, you can drink beer over here as well, over by hole #6.  Serg, Keiler and I did decide that that we were going to have this in spring with all the events going on, but others never understood what cancel means..

We will have another doubles event in the spring...  consider this one a practice event.. 

[stpitner]

what kind of a turnout did you guys wind up having?  It was pretty tough for me in Waukegan because of the cold, wind, and light rain.

[SERG]

I wasn't at the event but was told there were 10 players (5 teams) that attended. Once Shawn or Dennis have a chance to take a look here I'm sure they may comment more.

We had 10 players..  free beer and brat were given out to all that braved the rainy cold day. Kuffel and I won and we just donated the money back to the course.  We played the nine hole course three times.

It was a fun day..  I enjoy playing in crappy conditions...  not sure were the heck all the golfers were for that day, they missed out on a good time.

Hope to see everyone in spring when we try it again.

Do you guys think it is the bring your partner format that scared people or the weather?
I would like to see a rotating random draw for every nine holes...  what do u think?
Or add one more hole and do match play..  this is a good course for match play.

I think a match play tourney would be fun. I have not had the opportunity to play a match play format.

I think it has to be the weather.

I second that.  Match play is one thing that doesn't happen very often (if at all) in disc golf. Off topic, but would kinda be fun to have a bag tag match play day, in the summer with more light, of course.

[SERG]

I, too, like the idea of match play. Start planning it Shawn.
