TC for Lakewood will be by Hole 14 (the playground area), park in the lower parking lot.
TC for Seatac will be by Hole 8. Parking closer to the intersection of 136th and Des Moines will give you the shortest walk.

Default Safari Final 9

Tim and I spent some time at Lakewood walking, talking and throwing to put together a safari final 9 for the Duel Nature tourney. The final nine is going to be for the top 4 players (+ ties) in the Open Division and is going to played for score and final place in the standings. I put together a PREVIEW at lakewooddiscgolf.com for the players and spectators. We're hoping it turns out to be a fun and challenging nine holes for some of the NW's best players as well as an exciting spectacle for the gallery.

Thanks Andrew, Sheila and ChUcK for your input on the safari layout!

The flyer says:

All Pros + Adv Men play seatac/lkwd/seatac

All other Adv. + Int. + Juniors play lkwd/seatac/lkwd


Therefore, Advanced (Men) Masters would play: lkwd/seatac/lkwd, correct? I ask, because it is a bit ambiguous...

If so, another way to phrase it would be:

All Pro Divisions and MA1 play seatac/lkwd/seatac

All other divisions play lkwd/seatac/lkwd


Please confirm, as I will be driving from Portland Saturday morning, and I won't have time to go to the wrong course first...

Question: Will pins at Lakewood be in tourney positions this Friday? Will pins at Lakewood move on Saturday (e.g.: Will both pools play the same layout on Saturday)?

Thanks!

I believe all the pins are in the long position right now, and I think they should stay that way through Friday. On Saturday, they'll be shortened for the first round for B pool, but will be lengthened when the A pool plays.

Also, I've been asked if there will be a doubles event on Friday. We're not planning on running one, but if anyone would like to step up and run one, by all means, feel free to do so.

There will be one added hole at Lakewood to help out with the flow. The tee isn't marked yet, but it will be behind the new #13 (anti-Geezer), a fairly straightforward tunnel shot shooting down towards the lake.

Is it the same hole from last year? The one that throws on to the beach?

No, it's not the beach hole. It's going to be more of a tunnel shot from further up the hill. Hopefully it will help a bit with the continuity now that the walk to #14 is a bit longer.

12 hours to go! Probably shouldn't have had that late afternoon coffee, it was already going to be hard to sleep!

Hope you guys had a blast. I have never played Aqua Fest and, being a one-day tourney, I had to miss my second Lakewood Open (Duel Nature) in 8 years.

Looking forward to tomorrow! I'm going to use my ice cream discount from the players packs.

http://www.pdga.com/tournament-results?TournID=10644#Open

I am looking at scores and I am confused. If 54 is par at both courses the Open leader is -5 103 not -8

Did pools not switch courses between rd's ?
or
Did par go up at the Tac?

If so, Why?*

It's not like any of the TD's were consulted when the course was designed with 54 being par! And most certainly it's way out of line for ANY TD to change par at an established course just for their event.


*If so then par at Lamewood should drop to 49!!!!!!
