So, I'm running (as you are all probably sick of hearing) this year's Ace Race in Perth. This will be on Saturday, September 24, at Cockman Park, in Greenwood.

So, what is the Ace Race? The Ace Race is a simple disc golf hole-in-one competition, with specially shortened holes. Being a hole-in-one contest, almost everyone is on an even footing! You get one shot at each hole, and you do two laps of the course, for 36 throws. The winner is the person who gets the most holes-in-one, with a tie-breaker on the number of metal hits that did not go in.

We're getting close to the start of the event globally, so more news is out. This is the bag that you get just for entering. In the US they retail for USD20, so expect to pay AUD30 locally for them in W.A. You also get a pair of prototype discs (AUD20 each), a mini-disc (used in normal games to mark your lie) (AUD2), and a sticker.

On top of that, you get to play in a fast-paced fun competition, with a chance at a large bag full of golf discs. All for AUD30.
