    2005 24th Annual Southwestern Team Disc Golf Invitational December 3-4, 2005 Team San Diego wins the 2005 Team Tournament! 2005 Southwestern Team Disc Golf Invitational This year’s event was the smoothest running event in years. The weather although threatening on Friday to ruin our weekend turned out to be beautiful. Light to moderate Santa Anna winds kept the storm from ever reaching San Diego and the weather was warm and Sunny all weekend. Perfect weather for the players to wear their custom embroidered dry fit collared shirts from Port Authority and their matching Sueded cool max embroidered hats with team names on each one. All players also received a custom stamped Pro Wriath and a U2 putter along with a couple of mini’s, weekend playing pass, lunch on Saturday and entrance to the free drawing. With entry fees going up to $70 this year due to the city’s $500 usage fee to use Snyder Hill for our extended 6 holes we still wanted the players to have a player package with an estimated $70 value. The putting contest on Friday night had the most amazing finish ever. This year we designed one of the most difficult course ever with the many new plants the motel had available. It required the players to utilized a number of different throwing styles and foot stances. It required a player to have true disc control not just a one style fits all kind of putting stroke. To that end during the entire prelims only 3 players got out as far as station 7 and hit the putt.
