Let me know if you're coming down. I need to get out and play.
A lot of work has been done by the PFDS getting ready for worlds. A lot and I mean A LOT of brush clearing has been done at moraine along the fairways. Last saturday we removed B pin from hole 4 and relocated it to a newly cleared out area. This makes the hole a true par 4 in its new location

From the facebook page:
With the invite list out there now, is there a timeframe that we can expect to see the course schedule?

Like who is playing what courses on what days, or what courses are being played? I don't think the final schedule is hammer out until pretty late isn't it?
I'm almost certain that I have heard that the final 9 will be at Slippery Rock. That is by far the most spectator friendly course, but also gonna be the most boring for quality of disc golf. Just throw far. Maybe the wind will pick up and make it interesting.

I don't know of a day-by-day schedule at this point, but I do know (through making course maps for J. Gary) that the four courses are Knob Hill, Deer Lakes, Moraine State Park, and Slippery Rock University. Tournament headquarters and the final round(s) are at Slippery Rock. Note that major work, especially upgrading tee pad, is in progress for all four courses.
A couple of the biggest drawbacks about Deer Lakes have been fixed: A trench has been dug down Hole 3's fairway to collect water and hopefully avoid mud. Hole 8 has a pyramid green that now makes that hole significantly better.

I suspect the draft schedule will be revealed next Friday when the invites get emailed.
Played DL yesterday, and even with the new trench down the center of 3, it was crazy muddy all the way down/up 3
Well, maybe not fix the mud completely, but hopefully some grass will get a chance to grow back in after all the construction. Something good has to come out of all that water that's now in the stream channel that used to be on the fairway. Plus, it's March.
A trench isn't going to prevent the ground from ever being muddy in the spring. It's only going to shorten the length of time the mud exists. The difference between a month of muddy fairway and maybe a week or two of muddy fairway is huge.

I did the Pro and Am schedules working with the TDs so I knew they were coming.

Im more surprised that they only play deer lakes once...moraine is definitely a great course. I liked deer lakes better than moraine though...too many low ceiling holes at moraine IMO. With the exception of 1 and 14 deer lakes has better fairways...
Only the short whites will have rubber, the blue and gold will be concrete
