Cool!

And it leads to another question: If the 3PO is in late April, when if at all will the GNO be?

Paging Ron the Whip....paging Ron the Whip.....Is there a preliminary schedule for 2011 for those of us with compulsive planning syndrome?

[runnaman]

I really hope I can make this one. It's one of the tournaments I regret most about not being able to play last year.

[Reichard]

I second this request. I have a family with their own events and I'm all ready getting squeezed out of available dates.

[snap7times]

Could someone give a few more details on what makes this event extra special? I "heard" alot about this but wasn't sure what was different. That is an excellent weekend to have this event.

[Bruce]

Well last year for example and I hope it stays the same. Every group was a group of three, and it was intentionally capped so it would remain this way. For the most part three-somes at Milo eliminated back ups. Also Mike is a good guy and put on a great tourney.

[emmarose]

i really dug the format for the first round which was that they set up the cards not according to division but i believe according to rating (high, medium, low) so you got to play with people you wouldn't normally get to play with... oh right, and mike is awesome and makes gorgeous trophies... oh, and i won last year. that was good, too.

[bryan_luoma]

It was a tad bit breezy last year which generated some fun stories.

[Sean Phillips]

Nachos are awesome. Chicken or beef?

[Wes Hansen]

Last I heard- VERY UNOFFICIAL- Mike had secured the park and was beginning his search for sponsorships. That means it's time for his semi-annual haircut!

It wouldn't surprise me if he had something to post here in the next week or so.

He's probably also hard at work creating those awesome trophies he's kinda famous for.

(Chicken, unless I know the source of the beef.)

[emmarose]

Nachos are awesome. Chicken or beef?

... mmmm... actually i'm gonna go with carnitas, i can't hardly eat red meat anymore now that i'm old and my digestive system is ultra sensitive... altho, one of my friends is super into ground chicken these days and i bet that would make awesome nachos...

[Zuhocky]

check first post in this thread for updated information so you don't have to read about nachos. I will edit it with updated info.

Mike is including lunch both days. On the reg for you can choose Pizza or Frybread Tacos :drool:
For those not in the know about Frybread Tacos this is a traditional native food. The Frybread Tacos will be made fresh by Kirsten Voyer, Chris Voyer, and myself...well I help chop things anyway. Kirsten has been making frybread with her family since she was a kid for pow wows and other events.
Fry bread Taco is a piece of hot frybread with chili aka The Glory (her dad's special chili recipe) lettuce, onions, salsa, sour cream, and cheese. Made to order and we'll have vegetarian chili available.
We'll probably bring some drinks to sell for cheap if they're not included.

And the Oregon Series fee....is that left over from last year, or is there an Oregon Series 2011?

[smobro]

from the flyer it looks like you can shoot your registration over with out payment and get in the lottery. I have to assume that all paid registrations received by the deadline are the first in line and get a spot before the lottery begins? Says he with the check and registration in the mail.

Hmm, not sure? I was under the impression that you needed to submit payment with your 3PO registration, unless you wanted to submit your payment via PayPal later, with an additional $5 fee?

[emmarose]

why does this have to be so darn confusing???

I sent my registration in with a check. If the check is cashed I am assuming I am in by de facto!

Hey Mike -

Are you holding a number of slots for each division offered, or is it first drawn in the lottery regardless of division? Thanks, I am looking forward to it!

[Matt B.]

And the Oregon Series fee....is that left over from last year, or is there an Oregon Series 2011?

Well, I included it in my registration regardless of whether there is or isn't an actual series this year.

I know I'm not running an Oregon Series in 2011....anyone else know anything?

[jeverett]

Do there happen to be any spots left in the Advanced (MA1, specifically) pool at this point? I'm very tempted.. just trying to iron out with work/family if I could actually attend.

what the 10 players that are over 950 or is the 3 players that are in the 960's??


not trying to stir the pot but just curious.....plus im just padding my post count:D


:cheers:

[J Monette]

I agree with NWDiscer, Advanced Ams is supposed to be between 935 and 970. This tournament has a great advanced field, without any obvious baggers.

[bryan_luoma]

I agree, it will definitely be competitive and a difficult division to win, but based on current ratings alone, the Advanced AM field at 3PO looks pretty typical to me:

17 < 935
9 >= 935 && <= 950
6 > 950 && < 960
3 > 960 && < 970
0 > 970

edit: Unless your name is JE or RR.
:-)

[Joshua Olmsted]

I know ill be fighting just to hit the cash line, but hey, I enjoy tougher competition.

[Matt B.]

I agree, it will definitely be competitive and a difficult division to win, but based on current ratings alone, the Advanced AM field at 3PO looks pretty typical to me:

17 < 935
9 >= 935 && <= 950
6 > 950 && < 960
3 > 960 && < 970
0 > 970

I do think that people should play where they are allowed to play by rating and where they will enjoy themselves the most! I'm not trying to call out people and get into the whole bagger thing. I'm just surprised to see people who could definitley move up and be competitive, but remain in the same division year after year. It's a choice and I can respect someone's choice even if I don't understand it.

If people who are good enough to win big tournaments in Advanced never move up because they don't always win or place in the top ten, the Pro fields will never grow. If the Pro fields don't grow, the lower rated Pro players will have less chance to cash, and the cycle continues with upper level Advanced players scared to enter the Pro ranks because they will struggle to cash.

That's obviously my bias as a lower rated Pro player who can but usually doesn't cash or place in big tournaments! My motivation is to grow the Pro fields by encouraging people who have the skills to be competitive to move up. Most new Pro players struggle for a year or two or more...but they get better as players as they do, and eventually they do have some success. And if the next crop of great Advanced players decide to take the plunge and join the Pro field, the cash line gets deeper and the success of the field continues to grow.

Again - just my opinion and I'm not pointing fingers. This is probably a discussion best suited to a different thread anyway, although it's well covered ground.

Those two have great difficulty realizing what division they belong in. It may be a sign of senility. At least RR appears to be looking for more competition, not less.:slapface:

I fit nicely in the middle of the pack in my new division so leave me out of this (or I shall spite you by returning)! :nahnah:

The kids better watch out because I feel good this year.


-Rick

[bryan_luoma]

Well said Matt B.
I think you nailed it on the head. Unless you are restricted to play in a certain division due to your player rating, it really comes down to personal choice.
There are good arguments to support both decisions (staying put, or playing up).

[J Monette]

I played this one up last year to help some buds get in the ams side, and holy hell it was a whooping!

[Zuhocky]

I have a good idea lets make it a pro only next year

I think that would get some folks to move up!!!




How many pros in this tourney are rated under 970?

If you win once or place in the top 3, three times, move up!
If everyone did that, cashing in the pro field would be easier,
top 40%+ get paid.

[TreeLove]

AM reg is up too.

Wow, 109 players already pre-registered, over 7 weeks in advance! Good work, everyone! Great job, Mike S!

[Matt B.]

If you win once or place in the top 3, three times, move up!
If everyone did that, cashing in the pro field would be easier,
top 40%+ get paid.

Or have an intermediate field, our field is almost perfectly in line for what the PDGA recommends based on ratings. There are only 8 players in the open field with lower ratings than mine. Most of them are MUCH higher. Why would I want to pay an extra $20, not get a cool players pack, and get my A$% kicked?

[DexterHawk]

Because you are there to test your skills...

Choosing a division should start with your rating, but it shouldn't end there!

There was a comment earlier about someone feeling like they were just fighting to cash. That's how everyone should feel about their division. If you know that you are going to cash easily you're in the wrong division.

That said moving to pro is tough. For most serious talented players it is the first time they will play in a tournaments where they won't regularly go home with more shwag then they pay in entry fees. When I moved up to pro I had one win in advanced (not even in my home state and a fifth place finish at my home course) I struggled at first placing out of the cash in the rest of the tournaments that I played that year. I have since had more wins in Pro than I've had in any other division (4,including a B tier last year, yeah baby!). The idea that everyone should expect to get three wins in Advanced before they move up to pro is just mathmatically unsustainable.

Playing pro means you are generally on the course with people who can really play, who are fun to watch and who generally understand etiquette (though there are some jerks, just like every other division). I have learned more and grown more quickly as a player since I've challenged myself to play Pro and yes it was very motivating to walk away from a few tournaments empty handed.

The question you should ask yourself is not where you are now, but where you want to be. If you want to be thought of as one of the best disc golfers in your area you should be playing pro. Or as my mentor Buck might say "put you money where your mouth is"

[Zuhocky]

ya what he said, if you know your going to get a pay out before you play, your in the wrong division. Or your a really good Pro and there are only a few, they seem to be the ones against players packs for pros.

when I moved up to pro in '05 there were usually 10 or 12 in the open division. what do you think my odds of cashing were, 0%. I put in my dues for sure.

I think pros should always get the same players packs as the not so pros.

Pro divisions payout 40% or more.

Man if I only had 400 more posts.

Keep on Hukin'

Where is everyone? No posts for over a month??? C'mon it's the 3PO!! I'm stoked. Are you?:cheers:I'm totally stoked Drew. The 3PO is my BSF (a lot cheaper and easier to get into ;)). Looking forward to seeing many familiar faces. Heading to Kennewick this weekend for the Windy River Open as a tune up (and visit family).

[snap7times]

update on wait list? Was on the wait list like a month ago... wonder if i'm any closer...

[E-ROC]

I am getting so amped for this event. The course looks great, but I am hoping it will be mowed before hand. The basket positions have been moved to the longs for the event and is making it a bit more challenging to shoot even for 27. I should make it a point to get out there and practice the temp holes that I assume will be used for the tourney like they were last year. Let's go 3PO!!!

I've been player mciver for years and I've normally played the Mciver 27 hole layout. i have never once moved onto the added 9. is there anyway easy way to describe (or know of place) that has a description of how to integrate this new holes into play?

thanks

This is the layout from 05. The maps are not available on the Fling website yet. Use this as a guide as there are small differences and pay close attention to other players i.e. follow somebody. HAVE FUN! :D

The added 9 doesn't really flow with the existing 27 into one course. It plays best as 2 18 hole courses, East and West.

[afroflow]

thank you very much!

You can also use the calendar. The events there are often linked to their flyers, PDGA listings, DGS listings, DGCR listings, NWDG threads, event web sites, club web sites, etc.

[DexterHawk]

Three cheers for the all powerful and omniscient calendar

[Joshua Olmsted]

I'm playing in the 3PO this weekend and I don't think I'm going to have any means of transportation on Sunday, I was wondering if someone could give me a ride, I live off NE 26th and Broadway and I can throw a few bucks down for gas.

... yes, yes it is. but i get confused easily and really like it when people do all the work for me... now i think we should let this go before i start whining... which is obnoxious but totally effective...

sorry but the lack of reading is bothering me. :shooting:When you sign up for a tournament keep some info about it handy, like the top half of the form in the case of the 3po. I guess since your daddy signed you up he should have taped it to your bedroom door or wall. You will be more successful in life and more happy and more informed if you learn to do things for yourself. Stop spoon feeding her Gary, they have to grow up some time. Lots of Love Mike :cool2::chug::chug:

With the amount of time you spend typing on this forum you could have...
See you soon, was it rainy at whistlers?

Final Results are up!

[Garro]

Got to give props to my girl for staying with the touring pro and coming out 1 stroke better this time!! Way to go Emma! You've put a lot of time and effort into it and all that work is paying off. Kudos to all the players, winners and organizers. Milo definately is an endurance test physically/menatally/emotionally.

And hey Zuhocky, sometimes a little extra parental care means doing something for your kid that they probably should do themselves.;) I'll stay on her about stuff too, but with guys like you, Haggerty and others setting her straight I get to play good cop a little; actually feels good.:cop:

[Bryon_Harris]

the advanced winner was rated 933 and played 985 golf all weekend. Obviously that rating has some catching up to do but still, he deserves some props. it must have been fun for anyone getting to watch feldberg Tear it up. Way for Scotty to come back strong with a nice final round to battle back to 5th in open.

Thank you to Mike & Brynn for running a great tournament!! :yay:

[sands.steven]

Props to Tony and Dave on great wins ...... I know Tony has been out there practicing everyday ... He deserved it!

[Matt B.]

Thank you to Mike & Brynn for running a great tournament!! :yay:

Ditto! Excellent tournament and a big thank you to Mike, Brynn, all the Milo regulars who do such a great job taking care of and improving the course, and everyone who helped out and supported the event. Great tacos for lunch, beautiful weather on Saturday, and the courses looked and played great! There were even Easter Eggs on Sunday!

On a personal note I once again got my butt kicked by Milo and was seriously humbled by my lack of skill in negotiating the courses.

The big winner seemed to be Matt Benotsch, he hauled home winnings of at least a few hundred. He won the DGA portable that Hagerty donated with a raffle ticket he found in an Easter egg out on the course

Well, yeah, there was that. And the certificate for the Keen shoes. And the night in the Jacuzzi suite. And the Huk Lab shirt. And the disc. And the dvd. And the towel. And the mini. Raffle tickets can make anyone a winner! :trophy::trophy::trophy:

PS - DGA Mach Lite for sale in the Buy/Sell/Trade section, with 20% of the sale price donated back to the 2011 BSF.

[chainsmasher]

I agree with the previous post in all aspects, except the raffle domination, knew I should of bought some tickets! Milo is such a monster!!! It humbled my butt as well, lots of work to do on my drive placement. Very well ran tourney on a very well kept course, kudos to all those involved!

[dooley]

Thanks Mr and Mrs Zu...Had a good time throwin with Kel,Camo,Matt B,Mike Ward, and Mike Best.I also enjoyed playing with Sean and Mr Zu that 1st round(after that 1st hole).Also thanks to Jeff H and all the people helping out.:cheers:
