We were delighted to host OSU Disc Golf Club's "shootout" event this past weekend. OSU hosted 7 schools from Oklahoma and Kansas for this inaugural tournament and everyone loved the course!
Highlights: The OSU Disc Golf Club too the win (it was a good weekend for OSU wins ;) ) beating the No.13-ranked National team, and vaulting them into the top 20 nationally.
The Club President, Gavin Gore, snagged an ACE on hole 1 on the first throw of the tournament.
We hope you enjoy the pics.
