Have you called or emailed Mark Peterson?

Yes, e-mailed Mark a few days ago and have yet to hear back.

Pretty much the AM/Pro Howler is a first comel, first served basis. Get there early to get a spot. I played in it last year and cashed, its was really fun.

 

[skippy0420]

Nice, I look forward to playing it this year. Hope to at least get a bit more info. A PDF or site to check out for times and what not.

Is it a PDGA event? Any interesting twists that makes it unique or extra fun?

 

[thenamesben]

No, it's not a PDGA event. It's a bring your own partner doubles, 2 rounds of 18. First round is during the day, best shot. Second round is a glo-round, alt. shot. The second round we put jack-o-laterns on all the baskets and all the usual glo-round stuff (glo-sticks, etc.). It's really a fun time!

Here is last year's website:

Hey Ben do you have a partner for this already? Could we contend or do we need better disc golfers than ourselves to do well in the amatuer?

 

[thenamesben]

Sorry Mike, already paired up! As for contending, I played last year with my buddy and we cashed (albeit at the bottom of the list). The two rounds can really make a difference. Last year we did so-so the first round (best shot) but we completely dominated the second (alt). I couldn't believe we did so well in the dark... plus is was so cold that night... DAMN THIS IS GONNA BE FUN!! WOOO!

 

[skippy0420]

Ah.....bring a partner. I might have to skip this one....

If it was solo I would play it but I am pretty much a noob so I would not want to screw it up for someone else...

 

[harr0140]

bring another beginner!

 

[skippy0420]

I'm sure i'll figure something out......Sure sounds like fun!

 

[Dave242]

Sounds very cool and like a total blast!. Thanks for filling us in, Ben. I might need to find a way to to make it.

Ahhh man you had to tell me I gotta get some bowhunting in this fall now i'm all flustered but I love dretzka pins and needles

 

[mickas]

hmmmm.....

 

[harr0140]

anyone looking for a partner I shot my best round ever today even on all 27! and I tanked some putts. Granted almost all of the pins were in short position and I played short tees. But they were wet!

 

[edward felcohands]

i'm still drawn between shooting deer or playing the howler. my best at dretzka i beleive was +1, havent played there in a few months, that was before i started making putts.
