NEW INFORMATION: We are adding a "19th" Hole! You will START on this hole - it will be on the near side of the railroad tracks, then you do 2 rounds of 18, and then you FINISH on this hole. Should be lots of fun! That way everyone can get started (and finish!) right by tournament central as well!
That 19th hole is going to be unique. It will definitely provide a memorable experience!

Scott, Are the walk-ups limited to discers able to play? I have been waiting to see how my schedule worked itself out for the weekend and, unfortunately, won't be able to play, but am interested in the discs and swag.

no, there are a couple people that are DNF'ing but pre-reg'd so that they can get the player pack. Worst case if you hang back to see if it does fill I know at least one other TD where I can probably get an extra player pack from him in order to get it to you.

You will NOT be able to make requests ahead of time, but here's the selection of available weights and colors that came in...
164-166 has options of yellow, green, or 2 blue
167-169 has options of yellow or green
170-172 has options of yellow, orange, red or pink
173-174 has options of red or orange
175-176 has 1 orange, rest are red
177+ has 1 yellow, rest are red
The majority of the discs are in the 170-174 range. We will have a scale available so that you can weigh your discs if you want to make sure you have 2 of the exact weight.
It's a MUCH better color selection than what I had two years ago where you either had orange or white, that's it!

Better get out there early Saturday if you haven't signed up! Looks like several discers see the deal they are getting. Can't beat this years deal!  |

All the tees are spray painted. Hole 6 is near hole 7's long tee. Should be lots of fun! I was throwing the 2010 Ace Race disc on about half of the holes and Metal'd on 3. It's going to be great! We are SPLITTING hole 16 into TWO holes, so there are going to be 20 total holes to throw!!! 16A goes from the Tee to a temp basket (we have it spray painted), and then 16B is near the big tree and plays to the current 16 basket.
71 people have already signed up. Only 49 spots remaining! See you tomorrow! You will NOT want to miss the last hole on this thing. I hope it turns out as well as it is getting pictured in my brain, lol!!!

Well that was fun! We had right around 100 players, I don't have the official count because probably about 5 or so of the registrants just opted for player pack only and didn't play.
For those of you that missed it, here is hole #19, "The Monster" from behind the baskets looking back at the tee.

I believe that was the most people ever at Eagle Ridge at one time. I had fun and didn't play. Bought 2 players packs because that deal was awesome! The monster was cool because everyone finished on that hole and they knew what they needed to do to win. Scott didn't make anything except what merch he sold so basically he did this for everyone to enjoy. Thanks for that Scott!  |

He beat Kevin Schramm, also had three. Chris, on the last hole, with his last throw. It was a fun day, with a lot of close calls. I too thank Scott! |

Super Job with the Ace Race. Thanks to all that made that happen. Congrat's Scott on the very large crowd you assembled for disc golf. We had a blast with the Monster.
