2015 PDGA Amateur World Championships

[allinpflop]

Mammoth Cave & the Corvette Museum spring to mind, but here's a link.

I don't think attractions in KY are gonna work for the tourney in MI......
:doh:

Kind of depend on what you are into. Our greatest tourist attraction the Great Lakes are less than an hour away (Lake Michigan). All kinds of activities revolve around that. Fishing, beaches, fishing, scuba, fishing, water skiing......The is a cool Department of Natural Resources fishery over by Paw Paw, toward Timber Ridge. Fantastic State Parks, Air Zoo (a pretty sweet airplane museum), Bells Brewery, Fort Custer National Cemetery, a visit to Gene the Pumpkin man, the area produces a ton of blueberries and some very good wine.

Could've sworn I was in the BG Ams thread...sorry.:doh:

 

[brutalbrutus]

If in the future you do wind up at the corvette museum, you may want to bring repelling gear...... just in case. Those sinkholes can be dangerous.

 

[The Birdie Beast]

Does anyone know the exact check in and actual play for juniors 13 start dates are? Is there just a full schedule for the week anyone can reference?

 

[Cgkdisc]

This is last year's schedule. It stays pretty much the same each year other than locations changing. http://www.pdga.com/files/2014AmateurWorldsDRAFTSchedulev6.5.pdf

Are there any videos of full round coverage somewhere of events held at these courses? Tried searching, but to no avail.

That one linked on discgolf scene was only a slideshow with music.

I don't know about full round coverage, but check out Disc Golf Scene. Many courses pages have videos. May not be a hole by hole vid, but could give you some insight into the courses.

Have played mixed doubles in previous worlds but all my known Women partners are now Pro and are not attending. This is a great chance to play at Spinski's Championship course -maybe there is a local woman player interested? drop me an email at [email protected] if any interested!

For anyone in the know when it says that the reg opens at midnight does that mean during Thursday night or Friday night?

Registration is already open for international (non North American) players. Canadian players have to wait 2 more weeks and u.s. Players 3 more weeks from now

Chuck Kennedy, Larry Labond, et al.: We (everyone whose entry fee I'm paying for) appreciate the advance information. It gives us the hope that this Am Worlds will be well run and worth the entry fee.

 

[ru4por]

Nerve racking wait until midnight. I am in and looking forward to my first worlds. The Kalamazoo crowd will put on one of the best worlds ever. Wahooooo!

Looks like several divisions will fill within the first hour! This is crazy and fun to watch. I just keep hitting refresh.

Lol, sitting here doing the same thing. Looks like them old guys are going to fill first (outside some of the very small divisions). Pretty late for those guys to be up, lol.

The afternoon nap helps. As does the morning nap. And the nap after the early-bird dinner.

Anyway, I'm in.

Congrats, Steve. Don't let me fool ya, I am playing grandmasters too. :thmbup:

My first time trying to sign up, and glad I 'stayed up': got in MG1 within first two minutes, then checked back for about fifteen to confirm how fast it was filling. All of us early bird old guys are gonna be cranky today, and need naps!

 

[Discette]

Selling Out!

Grandmasters and Senior Grandmasters have already sold out and have wait lists.

Junior Boys III and I are already sold out with wait lists.


Only four spots remaining in Masters and two spots for the Advanced Ladies!

I suppose as folks wake up across America the entire event will fill in a few hours.

 

[Cgkdisc]

Juniors have more potential capacity than indicated so there's a reasonable chance we'll get some if not all of them in.
