I thought I would explain how the points for the tour works.

Here is how the points will be awarded for each event:

Each player will recieve 1 point for completing the event. Then additional points will be based on the weather conditions of that day.

1 point if the Temp is below 32%

1 point if the wind speed is above 20 mph

2 points if it is raining during the round (drizzle will be considered rain.)

1 point if it is snowing

1 point if there is more than 1 inch of snow on the ground.

2 points if there is a layer of ice covering everything (foloowing and ice storm)

All conditions will be factored in the point award so it is possible for an event to be worth 9 points if all the above conditions are met during the round. You will trully be a hard core player to complete a round on a day like this!
Let see if we can do it.

The top point pro player and the top point Am player will each get an even cut of the total prize purse. The purse will be figured as follows: $3.00 from each $5.00 tour entry fee paid by players, plus any ace fund money left over. After the first event that was held on Nov 8th the prize pot is at the moment $24.00 plus $16.00 ace fund.

The next event is at oak park on Nov 22 at 11:00 am. Bring everyone you think might enjoy the challenge. Lets see how many hard core discgolfers there really is in the area.

What will happen in the case of a tie?

[Schoen-hopper]

Now you have everyone hoping for bad weather!

[mrsenortyler]

Us Colwicher's should get some points for the hardcore tour....

How about 25 points for playing through a tornado?!

[Schoen-hopper]

Drizzle could be one point, rain 2 points. Tornado watches worth a couple points. Have an event at night worth double points. Too bad this isn't Grizzly Bear country, that could be worth some. Play with no shirt when it's below freezing and that should be a bonus...

Sorry Randy, I couldn't help myself.

[ranmatt]

Np, Thunderstorms with lighting was the only excluded weather initially but we will cancell for tornados also. If there is a tie, I really doubt there will be it will be played off, sudden death after the newton event.

Next event is going to be at oak this sunday 11:00.
Hope to see everyone there.

[ranmatt]

we can party on sunday but normally it is in the parking lot before the games.

[jump_putter]

Couldnt find anyone to go with to Stillwater so looks like I'm in for Hardcore event #2. Maybe I can extend my winning streak to......two.

[crispinthomascarrasco]

Me and Bo will be there...

[ranmatt]

Kool hope to see you all there. Looks like a chance of rain so this one may be worth more points we will have to see.
bring your friends see you all in morning.

The second Hard core event was held at Oak park on November 22nd. The temp was in upper 50s and the wind was 20-30mph so that will add a point. Each player will receive 2 points for this event.
