Looking for a one word to describe this year's 4 States Open would be impossible! From the beginning this event started as a large snowball that caught speed down hill and packed in a lot of punch. The 180 maxed out field was the huge added bonus to everything. Despite a record attendance the whole event ran extremely smooth. Sign up, players pack distribution, card hand out, players party, fly mart, tournament play on 2 courses, and the dramatic “Final Nine” all ran as smooth as possible. Personally, I am very proud to be a part of something this special. The 4SO has grown and developed into a professional event at all levels. A huge thank you and congratulations to the Joplin Disc Golf Club and all who supported in any way! Thank you for all the hard work and countless hours of prep work that often times goes un-noticed. You have all raised the bar to new heights in our area. Great Job!

Congratulations to all of the players who cashed! A special shout out to Springfield's own Justin Kingery, who battled back to come with in one stroke of Discrafts Ron Convers (one of the best players in Oklahoma) in the Men's Open division. Great Job!

The Riverview Open will be held this weekend in Miami, OK. Many of us will take part in remembering Pat Wooley at this tournament. As many of you know Pat was a well known pro player in the area and tragically past away last year. The initial tournament was planned several months back, but because of poor weather it was canceled and rescheduled for this weekend. We hope to see as many of you there as possible. There are more tournament details two posts down. See you all soon!
