Why not move the date, Terry? Like... to Thanksgiving when it might be a more applicable name? :whistler:

[ahukingacehole]

Turkeyrama, It's a McMinnville festival thing thats at the same weekend every year. I personally wouldn't mind doing it a weekend before or after so I could play in both events. Turkeyrama is bad luck for me anyway. :cheers: :chug: :cop: :headbang: you get the idea.

[SMOKIN JOE]

why not be more helpful with your thinking instead of what you might think is funny, thanksgiving that's funny, so why do you call it the" Rose City "open if you play half the golf outside the "Rose City",, sounds like you need to work on why that tournament name is not more applicable:cool2:

[SMOKIN JOE]

i to would like to move the date,the city would like to have it on saturday the sameday the bbq and baseball and conserts go on but don't understand the people in the way thing and we can't use the field on saturday,i changed the date two years ago to accomadate that and most of the sponsers did not approve because the whole deal is to be apart of Turkeyrama,so we consider the tournament as closing down Turkeyrama,the last event of the weekend,sometimes baseball extends into sunday as well ,and the whole purpose of the tounament is to get new people to play ,it's an awareness tournament to the community that disc golf exists in their city,you could come out and watch or play along for free and learn what disc golf is about,so no the date can't really be changed and it may be changed to saturday to accomadate sponsers and have it seen by more people using the park on saturday for the other events,
and as for another pdga tournament the club will bring back its late October tournament we used to do many years back called the Silver Squirrel Disc Golf Challange, I'll set up a course that will be very difficult to par,Jerry Miller and Tom Embre are the only ones to shoot par for a round,Jerry Miller shoot par both rounds one year (score card is still pinned up in my closet), so come October if you come play expect to say of few harsh words under your breath if not outloud,things used in the past,knee bunkers,island greens,mandos,600ft. double mando par 4's,get the idea,long day of bogey golf:cool2:

[Pizzel]

Wow.....60 bones for a one day tournament????

[Scott]

Wow.....60 bones for a one day tournament????

Play recreational. :biggrin2:

[SMOKIN JOE]

pdga c tier recomends 50.00 and not to exceed 100.00 well within the boundries,and if I were a pro I think higher entry fee and lower number of people would be a good chance to cash in,
and if Mic and Scotty R. donate or get paid to make any trophies the price of admission would be more than justice ,are tuesday series are already recieving some and i've been to many tournaments over the years and havn't seen anything as ssssswwwwweeeeeeeeeetttttt as these babies are going to be,:cool2:

Well, Terry... I was actually being serious as I knew nothing of Turkeyrama. I'm usually pretty clear when I am joking.

As for why it is called the Rose City Open, it is because it was originally just at Pier Park- in the Rose City. I have nothing to do with the tournament now, though, so asking me to work on the tournament name is a little silly.

It's all good, Terry. I am sure that you might get like 20-25 people out for your tourney considering the fact that there is a larger tournament just up the road. On a different weekend, you would probably get double.

But yeah... take that as a joke if you wish. :rolleyes2:

[SMOKIN JOE]

what else would you take that as, Thankgiving is obviously not in July,and why would I try to compete with the Rose City Open if I didn't have to,so if you are bieng series maybe think before you type:cool2:

[Sam]

You do realize that there have been events in the past called the Turkey Toss and that they happened on Thanksgiving, right? Brill ran them, I believe. THAT is why I suggested Thanksgiving, Terry. Not to be a jerk and I wasn't trying to make a joke.

Clearly you would not want to compete with the RCO as I am sure you know it will hurt your numbers. If you can do nothing about it and don't want to find new sponsors, I suppose you are stuck. Too bad, too... I want to play in a tourney at Wortman.

I think the Turkey Toss will do just fine. The RCO will sell out in 20 minutes and everyone who didn't make it in will go toss turkeys.

[Sam]

That's a good point, Scott.

[SMOKIN JOE]

thank you both for your support and see you in october hopefully sam :cool2:

[Sam]

You betcha, Terry. :cheers:

[SMOKIN JOE]

looks like we have or first one with many more to come I hope
Carquest of Sheridan gave 150.00 towards trophies,Mic mentioned last year that this year he would have something special for this years tournament
pdga form has been submited ,faxed, so will see what's up with that,gave Mag a private post asked if any problem, no reply ,so should be o.k.,rose city open should fill quickly so should be no conflict,Disc golf depot had mentioned bbq for the event and script will see if he is still on board,will try to start gathering goodies for the give away pile, do have a couple already leftover from the daylight savings tounament:cool2:

that is the pre list if you want on just let me know:cool2:

[Flash]

I believe Pier Park is only 35 miles from McMinnville. The PDGA requires 50 miles between a B tier and a C tier so your approval will rest on the shoulders of Jeff Hagerty as he has already been sanctioned. This is something Mike Ruzica would have told you if he had time to respond. He is a little busy with another series over on the cascades.

Sounds like Jeff would have no problem with your approved sanctioning so you might want to call the PDGA office and let them know about the situation and the fact that the RCO is virtually full as of today.

[SMOKIN JOE]

well aware of the rules being a pdga tournament director
that's why I waited as long as I did to apply for sanctioning
the pdga takes its time, hell they haven't even cashed my 450.00 check from the last tournament
as posted before no one is trying to compete with the rco ,, the people on the list come every year even before when it has had the same date
alot of the locals that play also play pdga so only trying to make it good for the locals and raise a little more for the pdga
I'm sure there would be no conflicts and no complaints that's why I posted that the mag has been notified so all should be good since no negitive reply
I believe I read to contact the mag to see if another tournament director would be in objection
:cheers:thank you for your support:chug::cool2:
did I mention them trophies yeah baby

[SMOKIN JOE]

50.18 miles between courses:cool2:

[SMOKIN JOE]

the toss is PDGA approved ,yeah, lets get some sign ups:cool2:

[CarlitosBonitos]

allright, consider me in! Let the RCO overflow begin! Thanks Terry Cannot wait

[ahukingacehole]

Thats awesome, another c tier at Wortman. So Terry are you going to set up the field again and play the regular 12? Or are we going to mix it up a bit?

[SMOKIN JOE]

hopefully we will get the field again,they have not said ,he said to check around the 15th to see if any organized youth anything needs it first,so tuesday i'll go see again or i'll sick Randy on them,the intent is to do the same as the Daylight tournament, the twelve plus the field,being summer i thought of the back twelve first,then the front twelve,reversing the field as well,two differnt 18's,if no field and under 36 people we will do dual nines and 2 different 18's,most will depend on number of people and out of towners,
of course someone could sponser a 18 and with approval choose themselves,,
regardless thanks to your family trophy donations this will be an awesome event:cool2:

[SMOKIN JOE]

[SMOKIN JOE]

[CarlitosBonitos]

Cant waith for my first Turkey Toss! I have missed the last two and this sounds like a perfect one day tourney, only one problem my sister is getting married the night before the tourney so I might be a little hung over, Brock is going down! We will not see a repeat of the daylight savings... also you better get me some discs if you want them dyed for ctps or what ever? Im thinking bosses and you should also make a practice of only redeeming script for bosses, just my thoughts

[SMOKIN JOE]

I sure appretiate the work you do, due to the lack of sign up I don't have resourses like last time, that's why preregistration is so important, it shows your supporting the tournament, and little guys like me take that money and go buy discs the day before, thanks for your help last time too. :posting:

everything is according to the 12 hole pad course

well unless i forgot something that's the gig, might also due a dual nine which is like this quick rundown,1-3,4,5,6,7,same alt.8,9-10 par 4,11,12,alt.3 by play area,alt 4 by group of trees,same alt.5,alt.6 off path,same alt.8,9 to portable in woods par 4,,alt 10 offsidewalk,alt.11 off dirt, alt. 12 off dirt,,the portables stay the same for either course, might due both, would be easy to have both set up, so lets get more signups and do the first course which can hanlde more than the dual nines:cool2:

Going to the Worlds was my focus this spring. Did not have the personal resources ( time or money ) it takes to run a tournament. We will try next year unless something extra special happens to allow me to go to the World's again.

[bucket man]

I'm interested in joining the turkey toss but have a lack of funding at the moment. I'm not sure what category I would fit, Sr. or Adv. Grand Master? I can come up with $20 sooner or later. Count me in. P.S. did you recieve the post about last tuesdays point game and are you going to add the scores to the runnings?
