Super Class Nationals

Can someone please give a recap of last weekend's Super Class Nationals? Who won? Which discs dominated? Any new discs introduced or going to be introduced in the near future?

Paging Chuck Kennedy....... :-)

David Greenwell came from four shots back to win by one in the final round winning $750. I might try to get a reacp story posted on the front page o follow up on the First day story.

That would be excellent. We'll keep an eye out. I'm not sure SC will be in my near future, but I'm buying a zephyr tonight and I have a bunch of Ultrastars. So I'm sure I'll give it a go soon.

We had a few 500+ foot holes that were par 5s. The par on Saturday was 78 then 79 for 24-hole layouts then a big daddy of true Super Class par 83 on Sunday for 24 holes.

It should be called Zephyr Class...

Maybe threatening to do that would get Discraft to finally add some weight to their J-Star/Sky Pro and Ultra-Star so they'd have a competitive disc in the class. ;)

Chuck, is the Zephyr totally dominant in this class? Are there any plans by other companies to produce new SC discs? What was the putter of choice at the Nationals?

Dominant more due to availability and weight options. The Super Hero was used by many including Champ Greenwell for certain putts. Haven't heard of any current manufacturers boosting weights to make their models more competitive. I have heard of a manufacturer designing a disc for the category but it may not be available until mid-winter. The supply of Te Mokos should increase within a month from what I understand with a big shipment coming from New Zealand after Worlds.
