1-1-08 Wow! This is year 10 for the Standing Rocks Open,
That adds up to over a half million throws, excluding practice and doubles
(thank you score checkers). I can't believe it, as we haven't burned
out yet (thank you course prep crew).
We want to do something special this year but it is hard to think of
doing it any better than the past few years since we try to make it
as much fun as possible. Maybe better players packs, several hundred
$ more cash, more food and beer and more rubber mats will do it, stay
tuned for additional postings

3-3-08 Entries are starting to roll in. We have over a dozen and I'll be starting an online list in a couple of weeks. 3-7-08 I am adding an Intermediate Masters division. While this is not a specific state Tour division, scores will be compiled with other intermediate players for Wi Tour stats. I will entertain adding other masters divisions (like Adv Grand Masters) but only if we have 5 entrants by April 1 (in time to get trophies). 3-10-08 Americinn Motel dropped their room price for us to $61-65 per room. They are about as close to the course as anything is. Be sure to mention that you are playing in the event. 3-12-08 Gawd, we have a lot of snow! It's ok, it will melt More than we've had in years! It's ok, it will melt The course is going to be a mess! It's ok, it will melt We'll have to shovel tees! It's ok, it will melt It's not melting fast enough. It's ok, it will melt Gawd, we have a lot of snow! It's ok, it will melt...... |

3-14-08 I uploaded registered players at PDGA .com. I'll probably only do it occasionally once or twice a week or so as they pile up. If you don't see your name check back in a few days, I'm not able to return phone calls (several, long distance, every night, every year) I'm generally busy til late every day getting the course/tournament ready for a full three weeks prior to the event. I find it much easier to return emails 4-2-08 Big News! SRO has been designated as a qualifier for the Vibram Open July 25-27, 2008 Leicester, Massachusetts. The event is promising to be one of the top NT events of 2008. Three qualifying spots will be awarded to the top pro tournament scorers. An important note is that you must accept to play within the week or forfeit your invitation. 4-4-08 55 degrees and sunny! Ya hoo! Our snow is melting now in floods. There is a Gawd. Get your regs in if you are planning to play. only 26 Advanced spots left 4-9-08 OOPS it got cold and snowy again, But most of the snow is gone and we are starting to get prep work done on the course, We'll take any help we can get. We are working on new holes too. Call if you can come out week days after 3:00 or on weekends 9:00-3:00. 4-10-08 Advanced is plum full, sign up earlier next year 4-14-08 Pro divisions have 20 spots left, Intermediate entries are rolling in now too, about ten a day.

We will have the course set up on Friday for practice.
Players meeting is at 9:00 sharp Saturday Morning.
We play Random Draw Doubles on Friday at 5:00 limited to 72 players.
Standing Rocks Park may be one of the better venues for a disc golf tournament - super beautiful vistas, a great lodge and tons o' throwing space. The park is a glacial remnant of a recent ice age with a oak/maple/pine forest and huge boulders all over the place. The course is fantastic! Radical elevation changes, long holes(300-500ft) half wooded and tight, groomed fairways and nasty rough, some may be reminded of Sandy Point. The open holes play on huge hills that resemble Elver. Two holes are around 550ft and reachable by most.
This is a pro and advanced level tournament. Our layout is pretty hard and fairly long. The length of the course and the hills require a bit of stamina and endurance.
I suggest that you wear tough pants and long sleeves. Leave shorts, fleece, nylon and anything nice at home; you could get chewed up out here. The course is ideal for pull carts due to the groomed fairways.
The course should be set up on Friday morning by noon or as baskets arrive. Random Doubles at 5:00 Friday.
Friday and Saturday night some will meet at the Hilltop Pub for dinner
We plan to add $1600-or more cash to the pro purse and extras for the amateurs.
Our tournament traditionally has some of the largest PDGA Adv fields. Bigger field means more points for those wishing to qualify for Worlds, Nationals or even the Wisconsin Tour Finale.
Registration closes Friday at 7:00PM. Please send your fee ahead. Your entry fee is the only way to insure your spot.
Sorry, we can not save spots without a submitted entry fee. Sending in your registration with fee is the only way to insure your spot. First come first served. Please don't phone asking us to save a spot, simply send in your entry form and fee.
