Actually, the Alabama Slammer is still a qualifier event, but it is not a Premier Qualifier and only gets you into the 1st round (Wednesday next year). If you make the top 20 out of the 1st round, then you get to play the championships. If you don't make top 20, you go to the First Flight championships.by hobbit489 - General Discussion
The odds are pretty good if I get the approval to make it an NCDGC qualifier :)by hobbit489 - General Discussion
I'm thinking of running a tournament in the fall (November) where you will compete as a 4-person team to help raise money for the University of South Alabama disc golf teams' return to Nationals in 2014. If everything falls into place, USA should have 2 very strong teams for next year. Back to the tournament, there would be two divisions: Collegiate and Open (Open meaning everyone who is notby hobbit489 - General Discussion
I did it for the same reason that stuff being said about my brother is said in a public forum....really no good reason on my part or yours. I apologize and will do it publicly as well, but I've held my tongue through all of this for several years. I realize this is something between you and my brother. I've said my piece and now I will go back to the background where I belong.by hobbit489 - General Discussion
If I get to attend, I'd rather play 2 rounds of 18 on Saturday with one round of 27 on Sunday....especially if you're doing skills competitions on Sunday.by hobbit489 - General Discussion
Hey Mike: I love your events and really enjoyed the ratings that you posted. Hopefully, other people will take not of these great things you do for SN. However, I do not like the way you seem to start petty drama just because you're bored and want to entertain yourself. You fuel the fire until there is sufficient drama (whatever level that might reach). I also do not appreciate the way youby hobbit489 - General Discussion
NCDGC We had a rough morning round yesterday. After some lineup changes to shake things up a little bit, we came back with a solid 10 under par in the afternoon to put us back inside the top 10. We are currently tied for 9th, but only 9 strokes behind the leaders heading into 2 rounds of singles action today. Go South! On another note, Mississippi St. is only 3 strokes back of the leaders (by hobbit489 - General Discussion
NCDGC We're sitting in a pretty good spot. We got to witness UAH absolutely destroy Hogback course, but our guys definitely held their own (tied for 4th--6 strokes back of the leaders) in very cold, rainy, and windy conditions.by hobbit489 - General Discussion

Short tees are laid out at USA. Hole 12 does not have a short tee, Hole 15's short tee is concrete, everything else is marked by two flags and a white line.

I wanted to let everyone know that $10 will be deducted from each person's entry fee as part of the fundraising effort for the team. The remaining $10 will go to payout with the other $2 going to pay SN sanctioning fees. I realize this may cause some people to not participate, but I'd rather be up front about this than "spring" it on people during the tournament.

If you averaged 1000-rated golf for the tournament, you would've not only gotten beat by 36 strokes, but you wouldn't have even cashed in this tournament. Ridiculous!by hobbit489 - General Discussion
If a few people could each bring a case or two of water, that would help out a lot. Thanks!
