What about Jay Harbour, or Cory or F'in brody miller, or pinkal or gilmore or christiansen, or Crider, or Romito, or, or,or,or? Or a whole lot of guys that have massive talent and should be in the running. I say the winner of the Oregon Series goes automatically. make the top guys show up for every event and make it mean something. Hell if I could go, I would, but how funny would that be for an 873 to be on a card with a 1024? Not that f'ing funny.


2009 OREGON SERIES OPEN PLAYER WINNER GOES! That simple.

Sorry been drinking wine again, but i am mostly serious

It cannot wait that long, unfortunately. It will have to be decided by June, I believe.

Oh... and word on the street is that Jay Harbour will not be an Oregonian for much longer.

And Tyler Christiansen went last year.

The State Rep spot must be chosen and PAID by August 1st or the spot goes away.

I want it decided by July 1st that way IF there is an "issue" of any kind an alternate could be chosen still.

So, that means the Open leader by August 1st? so, GNO, Fling, hyzer Pines, Rose City Open, and Calapooia are the qualifiers?
Highest average PDGA rated rounds through those events gets to go? That would be a fair assessment of current talent. USDGC is only 2 months after that so whoever has the momentum would represent Oregon. I like it.
Follow the dots.

First...there is NO Hyzer Pines on the schedule...Its HooDoo.

It will be NO MORE than the 1st 3 events.....That is plenty.

It WILL not be by round ratings....It will be by TOTAL SCORE not counting Final 9's if there are any.
The point difference on ratings between courses makes it unfair.
Some courses are 9pts per stroke-GNW, others like Milo are only 8 THEN the result numbers change from round to round.

I will POST the qualification procedure tomorrow..

If you read what you just posted again, you'll realize why using average ratings is more, not less fair. The fact that one throw is worth more ratings points on lower SSA courses than on higher SSA courses does actually mean a player who beats another player by one throw on the easier course played better than a player who beat someone by one throw on a higher SSA course.

Example: In the first round, Player A shoots 45 on a low SSA course and Player B shoots 50. Then in round 2 on a higher SSA course, Player A shoots 65 and player B shoots 60. They've both shot 110 and are tied on score. The reality is that Player A shot a little better overall and that will be reflected in their round ratings.

I don't see that it matter whether you use scores or round ratings. The same criteria applies to everyone, right? Everyone would have the opportunity to play the same three events, right?

My suggestion would be to use total score as Magilla proposed and only use average round ratings in the event the players are tied and use it as the tiebreaker. Even with slight differences in round ratings between courses, a player who beats another player by one throw over three events will still have a better round rating average. It's only when their total scores are tied that ratings will make a difference unless they tied every round in all three events.

DOH! Where have you been?

We had always intended to play HooDoo as well as Sisters this year BUT decided to go to HooDoo exclusively with its inclusion in the "King of the Mountain"

We feel that the 2 are just 2 far apart to have both....Camping and Tourney Central would have been at HooDoo anyway.

There WILL be events at Hyzer Pines...

I don't have a way to even consider qualifying without traveling back down south!!! I am probably going just to go!!
