Water Works / 4/5/12 Water Works Mini

« on: April 06, 2012, 01:26:12 AM »

30 out for the first KCFDC mini of the year at Water Works, including Arttu Sikanen from Finland, who is in the area for the upcoming GBO in Emporia.

Temp in the mid 50's with winds of under 10. No mow yet for the course but it looked great on such a fine evening.

TanK led the way at 47 winning Open by two. Minna shot 64 in Women. Loomis had a nice 51 to take Masters. Dan Howard, Ash Lawrence, and Greg Utz all came in at 58 in Advanced.

Your own Mark (Some people call him Maurice) Stiles won the Dynamic Discs CTP on hole 3 and snagged a Blizzard Wraith.

We will tee at 5:30 for one more week and then go to 6:00.

Eight showed for an April Fools round at the Woodhenge. The joke was on us I guess as no one was able to break 70. Temp in the low to mid 80's and winds of 10-15 with gusts over 20.

Mary played the course for the first time and said it was not as tough as she expected. She had a nice six on 15 and played pretty darn well I think. Hope you guys find your keys!

Got my annual pass today. If you don't have your tax receipt handy they can look it up for you there.

On Sundays I will be glad to meet and carpool into the park from somewhere in Smithville.

Hey Mike!

I should be free Friday after 2 and would be glad to meet you at Smithville. It would be great to see you.

If you are playing one play Woodhenge. Black Thorn will be very muddy the first half with all the rain we are getting so Beaver may be a better choice for a second.

Just five out for golf at Wind Thorn on a warm day at the lake. Temp in the low 70's with winds of 15-20 and gusts to 30.

We all had at least a seven on our line of the card. 15 through the woods is AMAZING!!! Exactly what I've hoped it would be. Who ever did the clearing really nailed it. Thank You!!!! 14-18 is a nasty finishing stretch.

11 for some Sunday Woodhenge action on a warm, breezy day at the lake. Mid 50's with winds of 10-20, gusting to 30. It was an on and off wind that you couldn't trust much.

Only a couple managed under par on the day. Caleb and Jamie both came in at 61. Corbett was right behind at even par.

Plenty of action at Paradise Pointe with groups on the other courses too, including a road-tripping group from Minnesota that planned on playing all three.

Winter Leagues / 3/1/12 Water Works Glow

« on: March 02, 2012, 01:26:38 AM »

25 on a glorious evening at Water Works. 64 and calm when we started, 52 and windy when we finished. It was fun to experience the front come through. With a few holes left the north wind kicked in and a 10 degree drop seemed to happen instantly.

The course was a shorter this week for the ace hungry crowd. Herberto chained out on 13 short so it pushes on to the last week of the glow season. Rumor has it that the course will be even shorter.

It took 9 down to be in the money. Caleb and Arturo led the way at -11.

Caleb Walker - Arturo Villarreal  43  $70
TJ Ring - Nick Winkelbauer  44  $30

15 for a round at breezy Beaver Creek. Low 60's with winds of 15 gusting to 25. A beautiful day to be out and the lake was busy with kiters, boaters, walkers, golfers, fishers, and who knows what allers.

Bobby came in with a nice 49 to lead the way.

The course plays well backwards basket to basket too. It makes a good 18. Got paid today for basket on 1 and chains on 4. Those were both first shots. Our group of five had seven or eight metals with multiple drives on holes.

Music doesn't bother me or hurt my game... it's already in pain most of the time. But part of the reason I play is to be outdoors and enjoy the environment. I prefer the ambient noise.
