Seattle Duel Nature - July 24th & 25th
 

OK, it's taken a while, but it's finally happening. Event #4 of the Washington State Series: The 2010 Seattle Duel Nature, taking place July 24th & 25th at Lakewood and SeaTac DGCs.

A couple basics of the tournament: Pool A (all Open divisions and MA1) will play SeaTac-Lakewood-SeaTac, Pool B (all other divisions) will play Lakewood-SeaTac-Lakewood. A final nine for the top four finishers (plus any ties) will be held at Lakewood, and will be a safari layout.

We know that this is a tournament people have wanted for a long time, but we will need your help to make this tournament what it should be, especially regarding SeaTac. As many of you know, SeaTac can become a beast in the summertime and we'll need to tame that beast with weed whackers and loppers. Work parties will be announced as the event draws closer.

Keep in mind that this could also be the last that we'll get to see Lakewood as we know it (last I heard, the TAF project was due to start in the fall). So be sure to get your entry in early, this event will fill!

Duel Nature Discs
 

With three weeks to go I'm glad to report that registrations have been coming in steadily. Take a look at the Current Registration List to see who's playing. As a TD one of my favorite days leading up to the tournament is the day the custom stamped discs are delivered to my front porch! Innova is a great supporter of pdga events and we've got lots of discs available for sale before the event. Champ Katanas, champ leopards, champ makos & champ glo gazelles! Echo star wraiths, star valks, glo San Marino Rocs, glo champ cobras, various aviars and more! Get in touch with Tim or me if you want to buy some cool plastic and support the tourney. I'm also getting a bunch of full color custom stamped discraft Buzzzes early next week.

If you want to get signed up for the 2010 Duel Nature head over to Lakewooddiscgolf.com where you'll find a link to the online registration and a printable entry form. Sponsorship opportunities can also be found on the entry form.

Cheers, Eric (& Tim)

I was wondering when someone was going to pop that in here.

Eric and Tim: Wow, this sounds like one not to miss...Thanks for all the effort getting this event going :yay:. I would love to get some plastic, I'm sure I'll see you around.. Is the Final nine for just for top 4 open players?

Yes, final nine is for the top four open players. We're planning on having a safari final 9 at Lakewood which should make for some quality spectating.

Great work on getting this one put together guys! You can count on Team Oly for $50 sponsorship.

Now all we need is to get Jub Jub signed up! hehehehehe

Thanks for the sponsorship Team Oly, that's awesome!

Am I to assume that the pins will be in long position or will it be mixed during the tournament at Lakewood?

Yeah, I can say that they'll at least be in the long position. They may move between rounds, but that'll be dependent on if we have assistance or not (moving baskets can be time consuming when scores need to be counted and sorted.)

As Eric mentioned above, the discs are in and I've got a nice little assortment with me. Some very nice selections to be had, the echo star wraiths and champ leos (some of which are very starry) look cool, and I'm diggin' on the glow gazelles and SM rocs. If anyone's interested in checking them out, just drop me a line.

How much are they? Will any of them be in our players pack like last year? Any way to take a pic to show the stamp for this year? Thanks for getting such a nice selection of discs Tim and Eric. It is always nice to have something to hold on to from such a fun tournament.

There are two different full color Buzzz designs which can be seen on the front page of LAKEWOODDISCGOLF.COM. All Am divisions will get one of those in the player pack. I plan to give all the intermediate players a hotstamped innova disc too, as I have in years past. I don't have a picture of the hotstamp design up yet.

Very cool and very generous. Thanks.

I'll volunteer to help move baskets.

I have a nice basket if you are looking to extend/modify exhisting positions and need another.
