Allright guys danni, being the official TD, put out all the general info, so heres some specifics, and oh by the ways.

* this is the first year of this tourney being a sanctioned c tier, we're excited to take things up an extra notch, with rated rounds and an extra day of 27 holes

* just like last year my backyard is open for whoever would like to camp for free, ask peter, beau, nathan, and anyone else who was here how much fun drunk 31 is the night before an event

* we've created a new side game that will test not only the accuracy of your final lie but also the accuracy of the flight path you took to get there...

*also the first year with an open field, im hoping itll look something like this...beau, peter, nathan, chandler, rolly, baby jesus, rideout, rey, lou, me...yeah i may try to take down the big boys it is my course after all king of the island has a nice ring to it...

*final 9 pro/am skins again this year, new safari holes and plenty of cash to throw around

We hope to see plenty of familiar faces and some new ones as well...we have so much fun putting this on!! Six weeks to go, cant wait to see you all

[Rolly]

I'm planning on signing up soon, really hoping to make this one! Will the final 9 skins be for top 3,4,5 Open finishers? 27 on the final day is a nice touch, lots of golf!

[Yammits]

Top four pro division total scores plus ties, so theoretically we could have two open, one master, and one grandmaster...but only am divisions from advanced on down are allowed to buy raffle tickets to get in the skins, so we dont have a cook/stimpi team like at aloha, this will be a true pro am skins, alternate shot with ams teeing off every other hole regardless of the previous holes outcome. Does that make sense?

I love these smileys im such a 12 year old girl

[Danni]

Yes Tim, make sense to me. Looking forward to it.

I am excited to announce that on SUNDAY the 19th we will have a professional sports photographer at the tournament.

He will be photographing players as they play as well as taking photos of people enjoying the side games!

Ever wished you could have a "great action shot" up on your wall, well here is your chance!!


Thank You Oak Harbor Sports for agreeing to be on-site for our tournament!

[Yammits]

Great time in auburn this weekend, I was really thrilled how many people not only asked about RIO3 but how many of you cant wait to get up to the island for it in august. It seems to me we're going to have a very strong open field, and plenty of people filling out every division. The cap is 80 so dont get left caddying for your buddy

[mazza]

if my car gets fixed in time. i would love to come play this event. but my question is can i sign up for the juniors division as that's about where my skill level is right about now. HAHAHAHA

[Yammits]

If you plan on camping at my house one or both nights let me know about it here, I need to have a semi decent idea of how many loons i'll be responsible for so I know how many police scanners to buy at this auction coming up...remember camping is free liquid donations are looked upon with favor

[Yammits]

zac ruziska is officially making his return to the island to get smoked on fort nugent's course once again, pretty exciting news for this guy, i miss my heterolifemate

[Yammits]

Already up to five tents in my backyard, which I love to see, room for plenty more still, we have tons of space. The job of cleaning the course up has begun with two goals in mind: #1 to make it look as pristine as possible for that great aesthetic disc golf experience #2 to take the course and through various additions and subtractions, make it play as tough as possible. This may be a "shorter" course but trust me when I say we're gonna make you bring every shot in your bag to take a title home. And someone ask me a question, make a comment, poke fun at me, SOMETHING lol, I'm tired of reading my own posts and keeping you all insanely overinformed. 31 days to go!

[Danni]

I will start entering names soon!!

THANKS for those of you that have pre-registered - keep'em coming...

[Yammits]

good to go pole, I'll add you to the guest list and I'm not sure why you put smiley faces clinging beer glasses, alcohol is evil and will not be tolerated at my house you deviant

Speaking of no alcohol....Yammits...I'm sorry I stood up and fell on you during our poker game at the White River Open. You were between me and the cooler so you really ended up in a bad seat...

I'm bringing a keg of Mac n Jacks to Shelton so please take note NOT to stand between me and the keg!

[J.P.]

We haven't met before, but I will on Blake Island earlier that week, and was hoping to just stick around and play a tournament since I would be over there. It would help out if I didn't have to pay for a place to camp. It would most likely be just me and my girl. Let me know if you have room?

Thanks


JP

[Yammits]

Yeah J.P. still plenty more room in the backyard, I sent you a private message as well. BA, watching you try to get up like a turtle on his back, was well worth sitting in that seat my friend lol

[Danni]

We will be at the SHOWDOWN IN SHELTON this weekend (July 21 & 22), so feel free to sign-up for the tournament with us or grab a flyer to place at your home course.
