This spot reserved for questions.

What is "S" and "C" on the hole distances?
S is the straight line distance
C is the curve distance (if you were to follow the white line).

I'll be out there helping with the string, & help sure would be appreciated. What we do is put flags in the loops of the string about every 20' or 25'. With enough people we can do every 3rd or 4th loop. 
One Day at a Time!
Don't stop believin'

I didn’t play but I still had a blast spotting and helping out. The time and effort setting up this course is truly amazing. The J-Town Disc Golf Club did a hell of a job making this all possible. It's really is too bad this course is only up one day of the year.

I hate to speak for Jason (his post and all) but I am sure it has to do with not making the minimum qualifications:

"Rules for USDGC Qualifying:
1)      Must meet all USDGC Performance Flight requirements.
a.      Current PDGA member.
b.      Pass PDGA Official’s Exam.
c.      PDGA player ratings must be at least 875 and comprised by a minimum of 12 PDGA rated rounds between January 1st 2013 and Oct. 1st 2013."

Above listed are only the ones who would have made min qualifications, but all were welcome to play.  Next year we will do a better job explaining everything better..

Thanks again for coming out and taking on the ROPES!! hope to see you next year

Thanks for clearing that up even though I have no idea what most of that means. Will there be something posted with all the players scores or highlights?

Like to thank Jason and his merry group of helpers for this tourney.  The work put into setting up the ropes and all the spotters did a hell of a job.  Only wish i could have played better.. maybe next year.

Thanks again for the course clean-up, especially around Hole 3. The course was hard-hit in the storms over the last three weeks, and it may take most of the summer to remove all of the downed trees. We did plant about 300 little baby trees out there a month ago, hopefully some of them "take" and grow up to replace the ones we lost. Looking forward to a continued relationship with J-Town!
