Ritzkes/Vaughan splash to victory at wet Patty Putts Easter Eggstravaganza

Image
By Patty Putts for Mangy Coyote Media The Easter Bunny was busy hiding eggs throughout Riverside that aided in the disc golf action, each prize containing a mulligan for use at the Inaugural Patty Putts Easter Eggstravaganza on April 8 in Swift Current. The teams were out shooting low despite warm, breezy afternoon conditions that produced wet footing at Riverside Park as the 2023 winter snowpack dissipated. Coming out on top of the field, we had Isaac Ritskes and Mathew Vaughan shooting a solid -11, edging out Team Deadly Arlen Nickel and Jeri-Ann Brownbridge who shot a -9. They were followed by Dustin Usher and his son, tied with the threesome of Patty Putts, Caleb Laverdiere and Brady Seib. Both teams shot -8. Everyone found some eggs and spent their mulligans how they deemed fit, but no one made a mulligan more worth it then tournament host, Patty Putts. Standing on Hole 13 not happy with where his Champ Rhyno landed, Patty declared his team was using a mulligan egg. He reached for...

Heimburg, Allen both score second Las Vegas Challenge titles

Image
  As Catrina Allen paced herself through the final round of FPO division play at the Las Vegas Challenge on Sunday, Calvin Heimburg and Kevin Jones took the MPO division to the tournament’s final hole at Wildhorse DGC in Henderson, NV. Jones came into the final round of the tournament with a two stroke advantage over Anthony Barela. While the former played solid golf through the front to hold that differential on the field most of the round, the latter struggled through the back nine of the final 18. Barela could not find the disc for swirling winds that encompassed the region the previous few days as well. He ultimately slid to eighth at minus-25. But Calvin Heimburg snuck up five spots on Saturday to challenge Jones for the championship on Hole 16 of Round 4. After both parring the 17th, Heimburg smoked his drive over the water on the par 4 18th to just hold in-bounds by inches, Jones’s effort was low and forced down by the wind. He ended up wet and out-of-bounds. After a clean a...
