Doo Dah 2009

[smitty]

smitty, was it just coincidence that two players on the top card played from the 2nd mando on hole 5 final round? thought you had clarified that only one mando was in play for each tee pad on that hole. i couldn't come up with a reason for anyone to play from the second drop. unless discs just happened to land there?

You got it.
.

Actually, both mando's were in play for both holes 6 & 7. Both holes have 2 mandos. Same trees, must stay left on both holes. On map. Same as last 3 years. Did some not play the 2nd mando?

Lots of stuff we didn't go over in the players meeting. I was preoccupied with figuring out the cards. Sometimes its hard to guess what players need to hear. Any other feedback on needed announcements?

Hole 5 is what the Swede was asking about.

I know that players meetings are crazy. Half the people listening, the other half talking or clowning around. The best thing about trying to push preregistration is you can have the cards and courses almost completely figured out on Friday night.

I'd like to hear some feedback on the tourney stamped discs for the players pack?

Were the selections good? Was there some other choices that would have been more popular?

What about the weights? Were the light weights a good choice? Do players prefer heavier weights?

What about stamp color? Do blue & black stamps look better than other colors? Or rainbow stamp, any stamp, doesn't matter?

Good selection for sure. There were not many discs out when I got there, but I know it is hard to have them all out at once. You almost have to have someone man that area at all times. Anytime you get a disc in the players pack it is awesome.

I think that you had all the popular molds for the Discraft. All you needed form Innova was the Boss and Roc and most would have been happy.

I bet you get stuck with most of the light weight discs. They seem hard to move.

I don't think stamp color matters. It doesn't seem to affect the flight of the disc at all .


The discs were not the best thing in the players pack. The tickets to Fox and Hound were killer. I am with the Swede. We need to reserve the room for Sunday and make it tradition. It was a blast to go there and hang out will all my buddies. There were several other tickets in the pack that could have been used to help save some money on the trip.


Players packs were GREAT!

I agree smitty . Infact i don't under stand why TD's don't tell people to be quiet and pay attention so others who do want to here what is being said can hear . Or in my case at least catch enough to get the idea about what is being talked about. With every body chatting instead of listening no wonder half of the people have no idea what is going on.

again I have to agree with smitty the stamp color doesn't matter but it was nice to have a selection. Some of us do collect the tourney stamps and I like get differnt color discs and stamps each year. Tourney minis would be cool for next year too.
The whole player pack was good and I still plan to use the coupons this weekend with the wife. Thanks.

Oh one question . Where was the pencil this year?. it never fails that some one in the group doesnt have a pencil but in one group I was in I was the only one with one because we didn't get a disc craft or innova pencil in our players pack. just thought it was strange.

[Swede]

i used my brand new doo dah buzzzard all weekend. as long as there's a buzzz or roc you've hit most folks that use a mid. i don't see a need for light weights, personally, but kindy might disagree. i just know that every casual disc seller has a dusty stack of 165g's laying around.

by the way, ya'll checked out the lip-bush on e-mac?? all that success spread some machismo under his nose
look out, liz, the ladies are swarmin!

Dave's ace was worth $693? $355 Tourney Fund + $338 ACDGC Fund. How much is the KDGA Fund at? Over $700 ace! Rich is Rich!

[mrsenortyler]

Not sure on the KDGA ace fund, but I know Randy hit it in Pratt.

Mike, any chance for a points update? Whenever you can get to it, thanks!

So did both Aces get paid out?

[mrsenortyler]

Nope. Bowe was not in the Ace fund, you've got to be in it, to win it!

[MILLERTIME]

I wish we could have had shirts this year, because the Design was sick.


I'm suing the club because they didn't have t-shirts to buy

[dragonessk]

Thanks for having lightweight discs in the selection I don't carry much in my bag that is over 168g or so.

[DUH]

T-shirts & pencils would have been cool. Next year we should start planning sooner.

I'm suing the club for giving me OB string to play with.

[disclizard]

Nope. Bowe was not in the Ace fund, you've got to be in it, to win it!

he wasn't in the tourney ace fund but he is still a member of the ACDGC. When he paid his member ship he even stated that he wasn't going to pay into the Tourney ace fund because the club ace fund was enough for him. And he did pay his dues and pay for a Club sponcered event so he should get the OTHER half of the club ace fund. not tourney ace $$$

[MILLERTIME]

Wrong, the ace fund for the ACDGC and the tourney only pays out to the people the pay the ace fund... it was an option on the tournament application, he didn't want to pay the 5 bucks to be in it so therefore he doesn't get any part of the ace fund.
