General Banter / Re: The 'Official' ACE Thread!

« on: January 29, 2015, 07:15:52 am »

Threw my first ace yesterday at Bad Rock Creek, Hole #2 over the pond.  Straight as an arrow, no time for fade with a 172 Star Wraith.  Nobody to witness my ace except my 1 year old daughter.

General Banter / New Years eve round?

« on: December 30, 2014, 07:16:04 pm »

I know a lot of peeps are throwing on New Years day, but is anybody throwing tomorrow?  Last chance at 2014 tags (mine is nothing special, but it's still on my bag).  I am firmly aware that is gonna be damn cold, but I just view it as a practice round for the Ice Bowl in 4 weeks.  If you are going, let me know.  I am jonesing to get out for a friendly round.

Found and Lost / 4 lost discs at Stockdale/BRC Disc course

« on: October 14, 2014, 11:43:27 am »

You read that right, I lost 4 discs in one round on Sunday.  Here's the catalog of what went missing:

Yelow/green SS Nuke (Dirty Dozen stamp): hole 14 gold placement.  I threw from the short pad to gold placement.  I went over the trees, and needless to say I did not make it.

Maroon Latitude Flow: Hole 15.  It's in the drink.  I don't ever expect to see it again, but it's worth a try.

Yellow Echo Wraith: Hole 2.  Didn't hit the gap.  Disc is in the drink on right side.  When the water recedes, I'm sure it'll be easier to get, but who knows.

Yellow Champion roadrunner: Hole 5.  Shooting at gold placement.  It's somewhere back there on the right side amongst the bike trails. 

My name is on all of them, so please call if you see them.  I am super embarrassed I lost 4 discs, but a bad day of disc is better than no day of disc I suppose.

You said it was an early design, but is that a Nova?  OOOH!  This looks like a great tournament.  Can't wait.  What is the cap going to be (you mentioned 25 pro)?

Found and Lost / Lost at Liberty (x2)

« on: August 26, 2014, 04:32:03 am »

Lost a yellow champion sidewinder on hole 5.  It was my second shot as I was going towards the gold placement.  I believe it is close to the bike trail in the woods, but if I knew for sure I wouldn't be posting it here.  I turned around on my next drive, hole #6 (duh), and ran an orange Ti Stalker short of the first opening on the left.  It was wicked hot and I had my kid in the stroller so I gave up a good search.  If you find either disc, I would appreciate a phone call.  Libation reward if found and returned.  My name and number is on both.  Thanks

What length of extension cords?  I have two fifty footers, and possibly a third (gonna raid father-in-laws garage).  Will you need these Saturday a.m. or Sunday, or earlier?

I soooo wish I could work Grip.  I'm one hell of a seamstress...

General Banter / disc bag specifics?

« on: October 29, 2013, 08:41:38 am »

  So, what do you look for when you are searching to buy a new disc bag?  It seems to me that the market is becoming (dare I say) flooded with options, and I am just curious at what everybody likes/dislikes.

Was it the city or the discing community that trimmed up WW? Just curious.

Just voted. Cracked the top 3, but still pretty far behind walking/hiking and fishing.

Found and Lost / Re: Lost white wraith WW

« on: July 21, 2013, 08:41:14 pm »

So, the wraith was found, but I don't know by whom.  The disc has my brother in laws # on it (trade), and he was contacted, thus giving the finder of the white wraith my number.  This finder of disc...I got a new phone the same day I lost disc...long story...maybe he called...still new phone excuse...Does anybody know the number of 816-719-9829.  I tried to call, and text him, but no response.  Let me know if you know who this individual is.  Thank you.  I will give adult drink reward to whomever gets the disc back in my bag.  Still, thank you.

Found and Lost / Lost white wraith WW

On Sunday, I left my 12x, white wraith on hole 18. I don't believe I picked it up, and left it just under the big fallen tree on the hill. Friendly adult beverage if found and returned. Thanks

I obviously don't know how to use the forum. That past post looks like an entire previous quote. Oops!

For those of you who have played Bryant Lake and Blue Ribbon Pines in Mpls., could you imagine that level of detail and attention applied to Water Works?

My brother in law and I had a chance to throw those courses and said the same thing. I know surrendering WW to become a pay to play would hurt a lot of feelings, but just imagine the possibilities. Walking up hole 6's fairway and there no erosion (grass!), or hole 5 where the run off creek is, that seems to breed Mosquitos, not being as grotesque after a good rain.

 
  I love WW, and it being rated a top 20 course is super. So why change a good thing? Because, think of the possibilities.

  Good luck to all throwing today on Independence Day. Be safe!
