Kevin Costa is the president of the Central West Disc Golf Club which hosted the event, and said it was a great turnout.
"It was a massively successful tournament, despite solid rain over the two days and bitingly cold conditions," he said.
The event was opened by Ged Fullwood, president of the Molong Golf Club, with Sue Wild of the Molong Advancement Group cutting the official ribbon to open the 18 hole public disc golf course.
"After two arduous rounds on the very tough 18 hole championship course, David Perry of Melbourne was our overall champion with a total score of 3 under par, followed by Tim Bohan of Geelong and Jade Brady from the ACT," Costa added.
In the female divisions, Alex Williams of the ACT took out the overall female title, from Sydney-based Estonian disc golfer Kairi Koobakene and Newcastle's Gina Hill.
Molong's own Jaiden Gallard took out the overall junior title by two strokes from Noah Mathews, with Lydia Philpott in third place.
This event was a stand alone tournament, as well as the second stop on the Western NSW Tour. Prior to its running, the lead in the male division was held by Newcastle's Chris Hill and in the female division by ACT's Alex Williams, both of whom were in attendance on the weekend.
