Burnsboro sets bar high in MPT opener.

95 golfers competed against each other and the chilly, overcast day
at Burnsboro Disc Golf in Vassalboro, Maine,
to kick off the 2011 Maine Players' Tour.

David "Gippy" Gipson (shown here) and Jim Bouffard
shot their way to the early 1st round lead at -12
on the par 60 twenty hole layout.

Kevin Bechard, shown here with TD Greg Hinkley
not only finished 4th in AM1
but also was one of the 2 (Joe the Mason) ace winners
splitting a cool $225 each

NH native Drew "the Hitman" Smith
took down the Pro Master field
shooting 2 solid 53s to best
Randy Dore and Caveman Clements by four strokes

Relative newcomer Christie Young shot 62 67 129
to better a very competitive field of 8
in the Advanced Women's division
Despite hard 2nd round charges
by Jdore 53 51 104 and Nick Gagne 54 48 102
Gippy earned his first PRO division victory with a 48 53 101.

The fantastic Burnsboro staff provided a top notch
halftime spread complete with homemade baked beans and cole slaw
Both rounds started on time and payouts were ready before
everyone could polish off a tasty bevy.
