BG AMS!!! April 12, 13, 14

I was talking with a few guys, and we all seemed to agree that Hobson isn't really a good course for an Advanced A-Tier. We all came to the agreement that swapping it with Ephram White would make a better fit, as it's more of a championship caliber course.

I know that the status quo has been to put a long open course (Phil Moore/White), a meadows course (Kereiakes/Lovers), a wooded shorty (Hobson/Miller) and a fourth (not sure how to categorize Tech/Griffin/Chalybeate). From my perspective though, Moore/White/Kereiakes/Tech would make a more competitive advanced group. There's a lot of luck on those tighter, wooded courses.

Anyone else have thoughts?

The plan is to mirrow last years event, so go to http://www.bluegrassdiscgolf.org/BowlingGreen.html to get an idea of the schedule and etc. A few course changes may take place if rivers rise (Phil Moore Park), someone schedules a run on top of us (Griffin Park), but we want to showcase advanced, so they do get the courses that should promote the best all around play.

I will post here the date that we will open registration, but wanted to give as much notice as I could so players can plan vacations and lodging for next spring.

Same weekend as Glass Blown - both events had facilities reserved a year in advance, but Dynamic Disc is still planning on being at Wha Bah's for the week supporting Bowling Green.

if putting MA1 on that course means I wont have to play it then my feelings will not be hurt in the least...

Then this just means that whoever throws the longest will win.
I wouldnt want to play two long wide open courses.

I personally like Hobson in the mix for MA1, it's a classic, that and I shoot well at tight wooded courses! haha!

You can have Miller

I'm not going to lie, this is fairly self-serving, as I LOVE Hobson!

I'll be MA1, hopefully i'll actually be playing well by April so I don't waste all that money like i've been doing the past 4 tournaments, haha.

Yea MA1 playing Hobson is great and we played tech last year. Hobson messed up a lot of players that cannot putt or hit a line. I think it is a great course to test those skills.

Which honestly, as long as it is a "Fair" course, meaning great shots aren't punished by luck. Then i'm all for making it difficult. This is a big tourney, with great players. If yo ucan't compete, you don't deserve to win....This coming from a guy who is HORRIBLE in the woods, being raised on open big arm courses.

Man I wish these wernt the dates as now I wont be able to go since this is the same weekend and the Masters Cup in Santa Cruz. Three big A tier AM events on the same weekend that is just wrong.
