F.O.R.B.

Disc Golf Tournament


Where: Rutgers Disc Golf Course

When: Sunday April 26, 2009
Registration: 7:45-8:45 am; Player’s meeting: 8:50 am; Round 1: Starts 9:00 am

54 Players Maximum – 1 Division – Groups of 3

As much a “learning experience� (as to what you may need to work on) and a fun time as a true tournament. Think you have a well-rounded game (or want to practice getting one)?


Format: Singles-play. 4 Rounds from the short “A� tees. Each player’s tee shot on each hole (of that round) must be a certain type of throw. After the tee shot, you’re “on your own�.

All tee shots must be, for…
Round 1: Forehand; Round 2: Overhand; Round 3: Roller*; Round 4: Backhand
* Roller = tee shot must touch ground prior to the ½-way (to the basket) flag. Group consensus will determine “legality� of roller tee shot; if tee shot is “no good�, throw “3� from the ½-way flag.

Prizes: Very flat “payout�… each player gets:
1 Champion / ESP / Star / Z disc and 1 DX / Pro-D disc -OR- 2 Elite-X / comparable discs
I’ll post lists of discs you’re vying for prior to the start.
“Paid out� as such: 1st place chooses his/her 2 discs, then 2nd place chooses, etc.
Also: CTPs CTTs Lowest score of each round gets 1 “premium� disc

Cost: $20

Ps: Letting me know (via email) if you’re intending to come would be cool (and appreciated)!!

Just a small time for lunch (between rounds 2 & 3), so BYOLunch

Sounds like F.U.N. ! I'd better practice my sidearm, and roller, and tomahawk, and...well, see you there!

General "definitions" of the shots...measured like you had a clock on your back and someone was watching you from behind (for a right-handed player...reverse fh and bh if a lefty)...

Overhand: 10:30 to 1:30
Forehand: 1:30 to 6:00
Backhand: 6:00 to 10:30
Roller: Disc must contact the ground before it gets 1/2-way to the basket

I know NOTHING is guaranteed (yeh, except death, taxes, etc.) but how about giving a TD an "almost definite" - by responding here or email to me - regarding you coming that day (to the FORB)? Just so I have an inkling as to how many of us will be play'in.

Don't worry Miguel, I think a lot of people will "think they're looking foolish" but in reality they will just be getting better trying all of those shots!
