Smooth Sailing at Fourth Annual Cold Turkey Disc Golf Tournament

The fourth installment of the popular Cold Turkey disc golf tournament was a resounding success, with players praising the event's organization and good fortune. The tournament, held on November 28th, boasted its third consecutive full field in four years, attracting top talent from far and wide.

One of the key factors behind the tournament's success was the generosity of several sponsors, who donated prizes to the winners. Barry Schultz, Randy Moore Sr., and Dan Pastore all won their respective divisions after donating prizes, with Pastore of ABC Discs being particularly generous. He donated 90 player packages, each including a mini disc, micro-fiber towel, hand warmers, and snacks.

The tournament's organizers, led by Lifetime Disc Sports owner Terry Miller, were thrilled with the event's smooth execution. "I've run over 100 tournaments," said Miller, "but this one was the easiest to date." He credited the players for being on time and in high spirits, as well as the good weather, which made it a rare treat to have a warm day in late November.

In fact, the beautiful weather allowed the organizers to make some last-minute changes to the course. Due to the mild temperatures keeping the winter course off the ball golf course longer than usual, nine new holes were created and installed just one day before the tournament. This temporary course was set up by Miller and Course Pro Mark Peterson, who worked tirelessly to ensure everything ran smoothly.

The new holes proved to be a hit with players, with several notable achievements taking place on them. Lester Sloan aced hole 11 during the second round, while Larry Kempen split the ace pool with his impressive performance on hole 9 in the first round. Miller thanked his team of helpers, including Peterson, Dane Miller, Hole 5 Guy, Tom McManus, and Johnny Rumble, for their hard work in making the event a success.

The results of the tournament were posted on the Professional Disc Golf Association's website shortly after the event, allowing players to relive the excitement and share in the triumphs of the winners.
