In! Now where are all my ladies?

[Shaun LaForce]

We are pleased to have Dynamic Discs on as a tournament sponsor for this event. We are huge supporters of them and love what they do.

They have hooked us up with sweet player's pack discs as well as a ton of swag to give away.

For discs we have Felons, Freedoms, Judges, Justices, Renegades, Thiefs, Trespasses, Verdicts, and Wardens all in Lucid plastic, as well as some Moonshine Trespasses.

Contact either Jon Hollows, Don Boutin, or myself if you would like to purchase one in advance.





We also have Box4Discs on as a sponsor and they have provided us with some custom Trotter Boxes for the player's packs. Each player will receive one.




As most have already heard, Hyland Disc Golf Course will be closing its doors shortly after this event. It was shocking when we were first told and very sad to hear. We would like nothing more than to go out with a bang for their final disc golf tournament. We need as much support as possible to make this all happen. Please sign up if you are on the fence, you won't be disappointed. If you can't play and would still like to support it, please contact one of us. Thank you all.

We are going to need 2 weeks to order shirts and get them printed in time for RAGE. July 10th will be the last day to register and have your polo shirt ready for the event. Players who register after July 10 will receive their shirt after the event.

[Shaun LaForce]

We have heard that a lot of players are not signing up for RAGE tournament due to the fact that it begins on a Friday. We are going to change the format to make it easier for people to make it.

Saturday morning half of the players will play at West Thompson the other half at Webster fish and game. Then players will make the switch after lunch.

Sunday at Hyland
If 144 players sign up.
At 9am 9 cards will trickle off of hole 1. When the 9th card finishes with hole 10 we will wait 15 minutes then start the second wave.
At 9am 9 cards will trickle off of hole 10. When the 9th card finishes hole 1 we will wait 15 minutes then start the second wave.

We are very pleased to announce that we will have a special guest on hand for the RAGE tournament on July 25-26.

Current and 3X World Champion Paul McBeth will be holding a clinic for the players, followed by an autograph signing, after the 1st round at Hyland DGC on the final day of the RAGE tournament. BOOM!

Awesome!

So now that the rounds are only on Saturday and Sunday, I'm assuming player check-in is no longer on Thursday?

We have modified the schedule a bit to limit extra traveling for players.
We have eliminated the Friday player's meeting and will have that on Saturday morning.
Check in will begin at 8AM followed by a player's meeting at 9:45AM, with the intentions of teeing off at 10AM.

We are now up to 37 players.
Depending on how registration goes over the next week or so, we may not split up the field on Saturday, and instead all start at West Thompson in the AM.
This has yet to be determined. We will give ample notice if this change does occur.

Multi day tournaments have never been popular in Nefaland. Sounds like a great event on awesome courses. Good luck to all.

RAGE UPDATE!!!

I have emailed everyone who has registered but I want to put it out there just in case it doesn't reach everyone.We have gone through a series of changes throughout the process and we want to make sure everyone is up to speed.

We have modified the schedule a bit and eliminated Friday from the event. Everyone will now start on Saturday morning at West Thompson. Check-In will be 8-930AM with the players meeting at 9:45AM. You will be teeing off at 10AM. Please plan to park in the lot near hole #4. Please DO NOT PARK at the boat launch near hole #1.

After West Thompson players will head to Webster Fish & Game Club for round 2. Please plan to bring lunch or grab it on the way to Webster. Player’s packs can then be picked up. Neighborhood Formula and Big Jon Short will be performing at Webster after round 2 so we hope you stick around for the festivities.

On Sunday we will begin tee times on Hyland Silver starting at 9AM. Check-In will begin at 8AM. After round one is over on Sunday, we will cut the field in half and send the top players out for a final round on Hyland Blue. Prior to this there will be a clinic for the player’s by a couple of touring pros. If you do not make the cut, we advise you to stick around. You won't want to miss this.

Once the final round has finished, there will be an awards ceremony followed by live entertainment, so again, we hope you stick around!

Help us spread the word. If you know someone playing in the event, make sure they are aware of the changes!
