Morley Player Profile: Garrett Tapken

Garrett TapkenPDGA#: 48873 Division: Open

Began Playing Disc Golf: First round was in 2006ish and played only a couple times that year. I played very sporadically until 2011 when I played my first tournament up at Goat Hill.

First Disc: 4x champ Valkyrie. Still have it in the bag as a utility disc.

Favorite Hole at Morley: 19 long. Requires a good mix of power and accuracy. It was way more tough when that big tree was still standing.

Morley Field Aces: 5c, 15 on the pyramid, 19 long

Favorite Disc: My bright yellow 11x firebird. A disc I can lay into, no matter what the conditions are like, and know exactly where it’s going to go.

Favorite Driver: 11x firebird- There isn’t a more reliable trust worthy disc out there. Stable as EFFFFF

Favorite Midrange:  Z Buzzz. Can be used for anything from a 200ft fan grip to a 400ft crush

Favorite Putter: Wizard. Havent found a putter that fits my putting style better and don’t plan on looking anywhere else.

In My Bag: Changes from course to course but the staples will never change. 4 Destoryers 2 11x firebirds 2 11x teebirds 1 Champ TL 1 S-PD 1 Champ Valk 1 Z Buzzz 1 Z Buzzz SS 1 Z Wasp 1 Glo champ Gator 1 Champ Rhyno 1 Magic 2 Wizards

Tourney Top 5 finishes (not necessarily from Morley): 1st 2011 Goat Hill Challenge. (Adv.) 6th The Memorial (Adv.) 3rd Verdugo Hills Open (Open) 5th 2012 Morley Course Champs (Open) 8th North county cup (Open)

Favorite Disc Golf Website: Dgcoursereview.com

Favorite Pro Player: Will Schusterick or Cale Leiviska

Tips for newer players and players looking to improve: Learn to putt. You’ll need to be make all your putts inside the circle before you need to throw 400+ feet. Also practice shots in an open field as opposed to the course. You’ll be able to throw shots and make adjustments way quicker than if you did the same thing on the course. Play tournaments. Play with people that are better than you.

Morley Player Profile: Magnus Petersen

Magnus Petersen“V-Mag” “Thor” “Von Magnuson” PDGA#: 30076 Division: Open

Began Playing Disc Golf: The art of throwing the Frisbee was passed down to me by my father at a young age, but it was not until the early 2000’s that I established my passion for disc golf.

First Disc: Discraft XL

Favorite Hole at Morley : 10 when it all the way down by 13’s tee pad, because it’s ecstatically beautiful and challenging hole at the same time.

Morley Field Aces: ☹

Favorite Disc: Roc N Roll all day baby! It’s a multipurpose disc that can be utilized in any situation, therefore manifesting itself as the greatest disc ever made.

Favorite Driver : Tee-Birds for accuracy and Destroyers for big D.

Favorite Midrange: KC ROC (See favorite disc.)

Favorite Putter: KC AVIAR. It bangs chain hard, has a predictable flight and feels great in my hand.

In My Bag: Destroyer, Tee-Bird, Firebird, Roc and Aviar.

Tourney Top 5 finishes (not necessarily from Morley): Top10 @ European Disc Golf Championships 4 Place @ The British Open and back to back Oslo Disc Golf Marathon Champ!

Favorite Disc Golf Website: Shout-out to my Norwegian Frisbee homies @ Frisbeegolf.no!

Favorite Pro Player: The Champ… (Climo) the one and only!

Tips for newer players and players looking to improve: There is an old Frisbee saying that has been passed down from generation to generation and it goes as follows; “The Most Fun Wins”!!

2012 Morley Field Champion: Carlo Pelg

Story courtesy of Patrick Paramore:

After 3 rounds of play at the 2012 Morley Field Course Championship, the top 4 players in the Pro Division,Carlo Pelg (-23), Micah Dorius (-21), Trey McKelvey (-20), and Tyler Tremelling (-16) faced off each other in the Final 9. Carlo had a two stroke lead going in over the defending champion Micah, with Trey 3 strokes back, and surprising newcomer Tyler in the hunt. Just ask Carlo how many times he has finished bridesmaid to Micah over the last ten or so years and it’s not been a pretty picture for him.

Carlo birdied 7 of the 9 holes to secure his lead and finally become the victor!  Trey who had recently moved back to San Diego this year ties Micah for 2nd place and also secures a spot for the San Diego Team Tournament which will be held the first weekend of December. Tyler takes down 4th and will be the guy to watch out for next year!

In the Amateur division, after 2 days and 3 rounds it came down to a sudden death playoff between Jason Rime and Mitch Z tied at -5. Jason never gave Mitch a chance upon acing the first playoff hole (hole 15).  And with consistent playing and two hot rounds in the Women’s division, Kayleen Boyle takes the championship trophy in the 2012 Morley Field Course Championship!

Disc Golf Beeper

,

Pretty interning idea. From their website...

Disc Beeper is an electronic device that is centrally placed underneath a Disc or Frisbee that allows players to easily find their Disc or Frisbee especially during the sport "Disc Golf."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gS3AUhoBOI&feature=player_embedded

This device only weighs 6 grams and shows absolutely no noticeable effect on disc flight.

Disc Beeper also has a waterproof design. It has 3 distinct modes that allows up to 3 players to play at once. Disc Beeper has a push-button to turn it on requiring 550 grams of force to engage. Once the Disc Beeper is turned on, there is a 45 second delay to allow launch and attempted retrieval, allowing the user to throw it and will beep every 3 seconds until you turn it off.

Disc Beeper is rechargeable via included micro usb cord. It holds up to 7-8 hours under 1 charge of 1 hour.

Team Tournament 2012

Greetings Team Captains, This year’s Southwestern Team Disc Golf Invitational will be held on the weekend of Dec 1 and 2. This year we have the same tourney hotel the Best Western Seven Seas. We have reserved a block of 20 rooms and 2 large suites near the heated pool and 2 spa’s on the property. Their phone # is 1-800-328-1618. Tell them you’re with the “Team Tournament”. The rate is $59.25 per night plus tax for a single bed and $64.75 for 2 queens. They allow up to quad occupancy per room. Rooms have a refrigerator and upon request/availability microwaves. The hotel offers free airport shuttle and free shuttle to the SD Zoo and Sea World. The grounds are 12 acres and have a comfortable lush feel. The onsite restaurant opens at 6 am everyday and closes at 10:30 at night. There is a nice bar right next to the pool with flat screen TV’s. They have a pool table in a separate room inside and a new ping pong table outside by the main Jacuzzi as well. We’ve secured late check out of 1 pm on Sunday for those needing it. The cutoff date for getting this special rate is 11-25-12. So make those reservations early. This is our nicest and best priced hotel ever. The hotel is located at 411 Hotel Circle South, San Diego 92108.  Those coming in on I-5 would take I-8 east to the second hotel circle exit. Turn left at the stop sign at end of freeway off ramp and travel 200 yards paralleling freeway to the last hotel on right (Seven Seas Best Western) before the road turns under the freeway.

This year’s entry fees are $80 per player to be paid to the team captains who I’ll meet with on Friday afternoon to give them their swag before the putting contest which starts at 2:30 pm at the course. This year’s player package will include as yet 2 clothing items (an A4 t-shirt and a mystery item), lunch on Saturday (California Kebab), free drawing, mini’s, and all weekend play .

As in the past a tie in the preliminary round robin rounds is broken by individual match points for that round being totaled up. If it remains a tie it will be broken by the #1 player for each of the two teams playing a sudden death match play from hole 1 prior to the finals if and only if the outcome would have an effect on who gets into the finals. Otherwise it remains a tie in the records.

Also as with all round robin tourneys whether they be Disc Golf, DDC or Ultimate the tie breaking method is clearly delineated in the WFDF rule book; The tie breaking scenario is spelled out in the WFDF Official Rules of Flying Disc Sports. ”206.04 Tie Breaking Procedures: In round-robin play, ties in which two teams have identical win/loss records, are broken by virtue of the head-to-head match in that round. If three or more teams are tied, the following procedure is used to advance one team:

A. If one of the teams has the best record against the other teams with whom they are tied in that round, advance that team.

B. If the tie remains, rank the net point totals of each team from those games played against the other tied teams, and advance the team with the best net point total.

If another team must also be advanced, the following procedure is used:

A. If advancement must be decided between two teams which remain from a previous three team tie, the head-to-head match in that round shall be used.”

Our team seeding for this year is as follows:

Arizona-Dan Ginnelly  -azdgc@msn.com

Huntington Beach-Chris Brophy-playdiscgolf33@yahoo.com

Redwood Empire-Roger Cansler  at jahchupa@yahoo.com

Santa Cruz-Jim Hagen at bnjhagen@scbglobal.net

Sylmar-Mike Byrne at discfever@aol.com

San Diego-Micah Dorius at mzdorius @cox.net

Oak Grove-Dago Bribiesca at dagoberto8853@att.com

As always the event is a match play event with the top two teams from the round robin round playing a 19 hole final .  We will have scorecards with the schedule posted on it and maps of both the extra holes and directions to and from the course to the tourney motel posted soon on the morleyfield.com website. The tournament putting contest has $300 cash in it and will be contested at the course starting at 2:30 p.m. on Friday Nov. 30th.

Please remember Morley is a pay to play course as such players arriving at the course on Friday wishing to practice do need to pick up and pay for playbands before beginning practice rounds on Friday.

Thank you and good luck to all,

Z you here,

Snapper
