Once the back-up pot hits $1,000, additional funds will be added to the first pot up for grabs until an ace it hit.

Day-of sign ups also available. --------------------------- ACE HUNT ON THE PITCH & PUTT: On Sunday, before 5pm, play a round on the Pitch & Putt Course with a minimum of 3 other participants while only counting Aces.

Day-of sign ups also available. --------------------------- PLAYER CHECK-IN: Player’s must check-in inside the Clubhouse at least 15-minutes prior to their tee time. Ams and Juniors can pick up their Player Packs then too. Players should also be at the tee for hole 1 a minimum of 5 minutes before their tee time to check in with the Starter. --------------------------- PDGA LIVE SCORING: Scoring will be handled using PDGA Live Scoring. Players will get the scoring passcode during check-in. --------------------------- COURSE/HOLE NOTES: Red & Gold Courses: Players may take up to 2 meters of relief in-bounds along cart paths where logs that line cart paths hinder a lie or run-up. Red Course Hole 3: In the event of a lost disc in the creek that crosses the fairway, proceed to the Green Tee with 1 stroke penalty. Blue Course: Casual relief is allowed for large brush piles, logs, and wood debris. If your disc lands in such an area, you may take relief to the closest spot with safe footing directly behind your lie and in line with the target, without penalty. If a disc lands OB, take your lie 1 meter in bounds at the last point the disc was in-bounds. Blue Hole 11: The line of rocks that marks the right side OB towards the green should be considered out of bounds (the rocks are the OB line). A portion of the disc must be left of the left/inside line created by the rocks to be in-bounds. If a disc comes to rest without any portion of the disc left of the inside line, it is OB. In this scenario, a player should take their lie at the last where the disc was in-bounds. --------------------------- FOOD & DRINK: Outside alcohol and food are prohibited on the property. Aces BBQ & Grill will be open from 11am - 5pm, plus the Pro Shop has a variety of snacks and drinks including non-alcoholic and alcoholic options.
