we can make all of the par 3s into par 2s would that help?

PAR has never been the ideal way to compare course difficulty or performance in disc golf. If you just take the simplistic example where one course has 18 holes with each averaging about 2.6 and another course with 18 holes averaging 3.4 each, they could both be considered par 54 courses. And yet, the scoring average difference between the two is over 14 throws.
PAR works better for ball golf course and record comparisons because they only use courses within a relatively narrow range of difficulty for PGA play (around 6 strokes) versus courses in five different 6 shot ranges for disc golf. You don't see Par 3 courses used in PGA play where some players might eventually shoot up to 18 under to undermine the 13 under record rounds on their par 72 courses.

Good point. We shouldn't allow players under 970 to play in Majors.
So now after I just watched round 1 coverage. I see a lot of slipping on the tees. When are we going to get standards for teepads. I would be kinda pissed if I showed up to play here for a Major title and the teepads are subpar in my opinion.

I think the teepads are the best out there as its a DiscGolfPark premier event.
In other news, Catrina just got smoked by Eveliina Salonen by 12 strokes!!

No offense to the American guys but I think I'm rooting for Seppo. It would be good for the game over there to have a Scandinavian player beat several top American players, who are playing well, at a big event. The more those guys get exposure, the more they can come over for more events here. It wont be long till more guys from Sweden/Finland/Czech/etc are competing at the top, of the top level events as consistently as our guys and that can only mean good things for us, the viewers.:thmbup:

If you're gonna do that, I think I saw one guy from GB, a couple from Poland, and at least one from Estonia. Might as well dig deep.

Eagle matched Rickys -16. Crazy to do that twice in a row. Hope Eagle goes all the way. His season is really going his way so far.

Eagle going with back-to-back 16 under rounds. Incredible. Also Seppo playing great, keep it up! Tomorrow's lead card: Eagle, Seppo, Paul, Simon. Tasty!

Course seems a litte "soft". As in, theres not really too many places for a pro to screw up beyond par, what with OB being almost nonexistent and the rough is not too rough either. You take a bogey and youre likely losing 2 strokes to a lot of players.
That being said, I predict tomorrows lead card to go well under -50 in total.

Isn't Eveliina Salonen only 18? I'm sure there will be plenty of trips to the US to compete in her future. She's already taken Cat down at a couple big Euro events, including last weekend. No doubt she's going to be a contender in FPO for years to come.

Yeah he usually starts slow and finishes strong. Let's just hope that this is his slow start, because then we are in for a treat and have a real chance for a first Finnish Major win in the history of disc golf.
