While the nights are getting longer and the days are getting crisper, the disc golf
never stops! It�s November already but there�s still lots of disc golf fun to be had
in the area. Here�s a quick recap of what�s happening.
Al �Mirth� Short hosted The 2006 Widdershins Open Glow Doubles on Saturday, October
28th at Bevier Park in Waukegan. 32 players enjoyed 36 holes (3 rounds on 12 holes)
of night glow disc golf. There were 10 pro teams and 6 amateur teams. Brett
Comincioli and Tom Schodtler shot an 83 (-25) to win in Pro. Al �Mirth� Short and
Joe �Dr. Dye� Burnett shot a 91 (-17) to win Amateur. Dr. Dye also hit the only ace
of the event on hole number 4. Nice shootin� Joe! Thanks to Mirth for a great event
and to everyone who came out to throw.

general amnesty has been granted in consideration of those Pro players, current or
not, who may not be as competitive or as active as they once were but want to
continue being a valued PDGA member. Any Pro player wishing to return to Amateur
status may do so no questions asked between now and the end of 2006. Your 2007
Amateur renewal must be received by December 31, 2006 in order to take advantage of
this amnesty. After January 1, 2007 anyone wishing to reclassify from Pro to Am
will once again be subject to a petition process. Renew or join here.

If you think you moved up to pro too soon, you�d like to play in Amateur Worlds in
Milwaukee, you�re getting too old to play pro or you�d just like to save a few bucks
on this year�s membership, then the PDGA pro amnesty plan is for you. Make sure to
send in your membership BEFORE the end of the year to take advantage of this once in
a life time offer!
Am Worlds Website
If you haven�t heard already, the 2007 Amateur Worlds will be held right next door
in Milwaukee. Check out the tournament website: http://www.2007amworlds.com/
Pro Worlds Website
2007 Pro Worlds will also be held in Wisconsin, but up north at the Highbridge
Sports Complex. Check out the website: http://www.2007proworlds.com/
Rule of the month
804.03 F. All players are responsible for returning their scorecards within 25
minutes after the completion of a round. Failure to do so shall result in the
assessment of two penalty throws, without a warning, to each player listed on the
late scorecard.
This one came up at IOS #7. It doesn�t matter if YOU had the card or not, the entire
group gets the penalty. So, if you aren�t walking the card into tournament central,
walk with the guy who has the card and watch them turn it in. It might save you two
penalty throws and the TDs a BIG headache!
We hope to see you out on the course (and at the club meeting)!
