Jeff, thanks for coming out today! Congrats on the Long Drive and Placing your division!




Today was great. It started off pretty cold when the first players arrived early this morning around 8am. The skies were looking gloomy and the ground was wet from last night's rain. As people started filing in to register, pick up their player pack and raffle tickets and play a warm up round or take a walk through reports of weather started circling for rain at noon to rain a 2pm. An announcement was made at the players meeting to be prepared for rain, but as the first round progressed, the storm started moving away from us, the skies didn't clear up for any sun, but they did stay in the upper 50s today with no rain.

22 competitors signed up today,
Team Roc - 8 players
Team Buzzz - 14 players

There was a CTP held at lunch with a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prize provided by Shoot The Breeze Disc Golf Club in Ashtabula, Friends of Punderson Disc Golf Club in Punderson and Innova. Pizza Joes provided lunch for everyone.

After the second round, the long drive was held with a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prize from Westside Discs out of Switzerland. There was also an Ace Pot for the tournament and since no one hit an ace, everyone who put in shot from the CTP hole. The winner of this threw a tomahawk and it went in the basket, but popped back out from not grabbing enough chains.

Averages for each team...
Team Roc - 102
Team Buzzz - 106

Winner - TEAM ROC
