Title: First Disc Golf Tournament at Klutho Park!!!
Post by: rhyno on November 26, 2011, 04:16:20 PM
The River City Disc Golf Association hosted the inaugural Birdie Bash Tournament today 11/26/2011 at the disc golf course in Klutho Park!!!

Twelve local professional disc golfers participated in the 2 round event today. This event had a little different format as Out of bounds was added to almost every hole and the golfers were only allowed to use 3 discs which they had to declare at the start of each round.

The competition was very stiff and it showed with the three way tie for third and the very close finish.

Results:
1st Place Bill Giroux -16
2nd Place Stan Hubbard -15
3rd Place Donavin Warren -14
3rd Place Charlie Booras -14
3rd Place Jack Hicks -14

I am looking forward to working with the local golfers in the area who are interested in starting up a weekly league. Thanks again for everyone's hard work getting the course in and the River City Disc Golf Association for hosting the 2 round event and providing lunch!!!

I am not an avid dg player but have played in the past. I drove by the other day and was looking for the signage for the course map but could not find it. Is it up yet?

The signage isn't up yet. (just the two big poles for it at the parking lot) . For a course map, see http://www.springfielddiscgolf.com/ . The start is at 2nd and Boulevard (there is a little parking lot there).
