Zero Time Gateway Challenge
Date: Saturday, October 25th, 2014
Sign-in/Practice: 8:30 - 9:50 AM
Player's Meeting: 10:00 AM
Tee Off: 10:15 AM
Dinner: ~4:30pm at the Royal Oak Pub (329 March Rd.)
Where: Kanata DGC
Format: 2 Rounds of 24 Holes (2 shots at each basket)
Cost: $35 CAD
Payment: Interac to kenmlittle@gmail.com -OR- contact me via PM to setup in hand or mailed payments
Registration: Please PM, e-mail or post your intentions below. You are not confirmed until you are paid. As always, you can just buy a sweet Player's Pack and forego all of the fun, but why would you want to do that?
Game Play/Rules: This year we will be doing something (nearly) completely different from past events. The Zero Time Gateway Challenge will be a points based event where you can only use the two discs supplied to you the day of the event. There will be two distinctly different types of holes: "Ace Run" holes and "Long Putt" holes. An "Ace Run" hit will be worth five (5) points; while a "Long Putt" will be worth one (1) point.
Ace Runs: 12 holes @ ~100-180' in length [5 Points]
Long Putts: 12 holes @ ~30-50' in length [1 Point]
Winnings: The overall winner will be taking home a brand new Bullseye basket!!
Discs: You will receive two (2) Zero Time discs manufactured by Gateway. There will be two disc molds available: Wizards and Chiefs. Selection will be first come, first served unless you specify the mold you want prior to October 1st.
Player's Pack Swag:
2 - Zero Time Gateway Putters
1 - Zero Time Stash Mini Set
1 - Package of Greg's Meats Beef Jerky
Hot Hands (Big thanks to Dros!)
AND Day of Surprises!
Player Pack value currently estimated at $56.00 CAD!
Side Games:
Rock, Paper, Scissors Tournament ($5 entry)
There will be a return of the infamous RPS tournament for a few very sweet discs.
Zero Time Putting Contest ($2/attempt)
Instead of a CTP contest as we've had in the past, this year we will be having a Zero Time putting contest. This will be a variation on your standard putting station contest and will be sure to provide a challenge and loads of entertainment! So be prepared to show off your putting skills both normal and "stylized."
Disc Descriptions:
Wizard
The Wizard is a straight flying, stable, putt and approach disc. This disc will hold any line you put it on with very little fade. It has very good carry for an approach disc and is great off the tee. Whether you use it for putts, approaches, short range drivers, or all three, the Wizard is a very consistent and accurate flyer. Great disc in wind conditions.
Chief
The chief is a low profile putt and approach disc with a bullet shaped nose and a bead on the wing for stability. This disc is basically a wizard with 1/4" of rim depth taken out of the middle.
All profits will be going directly to the Ice Bowl fund for donation to the Ottawa Food Bank!

Hey Ken, what a great idea, and a great plan too.
I also appreciated how this was just dropped out of the blue on us.
I really like the prospect of a non-standard fun-centric event after our
high stakes fall tourney schedule wraps up.
All the above, to say it absolutely leads me to declaring: IN.
One of each disc. Max weights. |

People that throw Chiefs on that day SUCK!
(This is me trying to start a "gang" war; Wizards vs. Chiefs. I'm going to start working on my hand signs.)

Who's going to be the next to step up to the challenge?!
Will you be in the Chief (faster speed) or Wizard (slower speed) camp?
Or will you wedge yourself directly on the fence?
