What will the cost be to play two rounds, one with each type of disc? Will it be $20 for each round?

Yes. We may give a discount for buying both but haven't thought of one or approved one yet.

a classic roc is technically a putter and a buzzz is a midrange... why not just do an actual rancho or san marino Roc? the speed difference between a midrange and a putter won't really balance the competition. besides, how many people (dave hemmeline excluded) actually throw classic rocs? it's an outdated mold that doesn't sell well enough in the innova line to justify making it available for regular purchase in anything other than dx plastic

aside from that, this sounds like an awesome time. unfortunately that's the day i move back to atx for school

not really. a san marino roc is less stable than a rancho and a champ classic roc is beefier with some fade at the end like a less stable Zone.

regardless, it's not a big deal, but if you're going to do it right and have a "ROC v. BUZZZ" challenge, you should probably get a Roc in a mold that actually a midrange and relatively popular. if not, call it a "CLASSIC ROC v. BUZZZ" challenge

Depends on how early i want to get out there. Probably 7 or 8 in the morning. I may just show up at 7 and if people want to go out, then i'll scramble. Maybe officially at 8. Anyone have a preference?
