As soon as someone tells me how the 'track style' scoring works in a head-to-head matchup, we'll have something to talk about. And it better have a way to handicap for the full range of disc golf skills because I have no interest in running an event for only the top tier of disc golfers. How can a team with a total rating of 5,555 (793 ave) compete against a team with a total rating of 6,600 (943 ave)? This is the kind of range that we had in TDG this year.

THAT said, I am, and always will, be open to new ideas. So show me how this system works and we can change it for next year.

I did think that the handicaps worked better this year than last year. Anybody have some ideas about that?

Yea to bad that asshole casserole did it to every team they played except for one. So in my book then everyone had the same chance that we did we just took the time to take advantage of the situation. But it will be a good day of golf at milo and may the best team win!

Jesus Christ. It sounds like we never showed up at all.

We had four players there this last week at Trojan. There were two weeks where we got the 7 point bonus. So, no, Asshole Casserole did not do "it to every team they played except for one."

I will happy to share my scheme. It may have to wait until the next TDG match as I behind on homework. I will say that handicapping will not be affected, but the head to head aspect of TDG should go as it is the root of the attendance issue......I think....but there may be away to keep an aspect of this.

I have a 6 player team lined up for next year already. Just need a 7th to make it complete. Depending on how the ratings thing works out next year, we might make it. I hope my 2 years in team disc already makes us into the main matchups if this becomes a 2 day league next year. The return of the Warped Rubber Putters is coming!!!!! although we may change the name to something Hagg related, since we are all Hagg regulars.

I never say anything but this time I need to say something.Jordan takes time out of his life to come to disc golf course to throw team disc golf together and he works hard at it so to you jordan thank you so much,and lets not forget that this is TEAM DISC GOLF not ok im not going to show up for my team because I want to watch football..... so to the team[LMAO] that didnt show up that much shame on you remember this is TEAM DISC GOLF so next year if you have a TEAM then come and play,and im not saying that if one of your team mates has to work that your team should be put down for that but I know that a lot of your team just didnt show up for no reason so enough about that to all the teams this year good golf let's go to milo and play some disc golf


p.s. is the team I'm refering to going to be there at milo???????????

Like the other three members of my team (AC) who have posted on this thread, I completely agree that our team is at fault for having poor attendance. The last time any of us played Team Golf (3+ years ago), it was very different (seemingly less competitive overall and with flexible timing rather than pre-set matches) and it’s our “bad” for not recognizing that we were entering new territory. But please do not begin to speculate that members of our team were missing matches for callous reasons. We have admitted our error in this and taken the team out of contention for the next go-round. To keep bashing us is pointless.

I was personally able to play at 7 team golf events this year (including the prelims) and I had a great time doing so even if I didn’t get us many points. This was my first venture into “competitive” DG in several years and this thread is sort of a sad note on which to leave again. Hopefully we can just have a good time at Milo in a couple of weeks and leave on that note instead!

As long as I get my Root Beer flavored Slurpee, you guys are aces with me.

Seriously, though... I have stated my point and it is a closed issue for me. I do not harbor any hard feelings toward anyone and I look forward to the good time that will be had at Milo and in future years of TDG.

I was really considering going with 11 ratings points per stroke at this venue. But when I added the path & beyond OB it actually made the course play harder than last year even with better weather and cement tee pads.

I am glad that I kept it at 10.

What do you think? Drop the extra OB and go to 11 RP/S?

Oh and congrats to the four 1000 rated rounds out at Trojan!
