You have to admit that it would be cool to win one of these trophies though.

Anyone have a link to the mini metal ones? I'd like to give one as a gift to one of my friends when they get their first ace. The 5 people I play with and myself are still looking for our first. Thanks

From the title of this post I was hoping it was gonna be the name of a tournament... maybe it still could be.

I hope this happens. The tourney stamp on the discs could look something like this

This might of been answered before, but are the 2012 tags in play once you get one or do you have to use the 2011's until the end of the year? Just wondering.

General Banter / Re: Thoughts on the Grip Equipment disc golf bag

I've played 3 rounds so far with my new bag and I absolutely love it. It rides higher on your back which helps distribute weight better and makes it a lot easier to carry +20 discs and all of your accessories. It looks like they got their sh1t together this time around.

Pros:
-Snap on rain cover
-Holds +20 discs
-Discs are easily accessible 
-Putter pocket holds 3 putters comfortably
-Quality materials used
-Heavy duty rails on the bottom
-Holds a 32oz Nalgene bottle on each side.
-Each side can hold a(n) umbrella or disc golf chair
-Sits perfect on a disc golf chair
-Made by a small local company
-Enough pockets to fit tons of accessories
-Aesthetically pleasing

Cons:
-Most notably the $200 price tag
-Lack of D-rings
-Limited color options (Some people find this important?)
-Pockets aren't the most "spacious"
-Only one size available currently
-If you want to carry a decent amount of extra clothes, you have to put it on top of the discs
-Doesn't make those long putts for you lol

All in all it is a quality product that gets the job done and more which absolutely justifies the steep price tag.

From the stories I heard about the tourney on Sunday, I'd say it should be mandatory to attend the Cookie Cutter Classic next year rain or shine.

Found and Lost / Lost: Yellow Star Archon at WW

« on: September 22, 2011, 06:02:53 PM »

Threw it on hole 14 at WW and it turned over and never came back... Landed somewhere around hole 17/8/9. The leaves made it hard to spot it. My name and number are written on the back. Thanks!

I'll be out there tonight for my first OP league around 4. Hopefully there is some beer left!


EDIT: If you don't show up you're missing out on a great time. THERE IS FREE BEER!

What it the problem with bottles in the trash can exactly? Are you talking about if they happen to break?

« on: August 04, 2011, 05:06:44 PM »

I like my beer out of bottles and throw every bottle away in a trash can. If you see a bottle, pick it up and throw it away. I think "No Glass Allowed" isn't the right answer to the problem.

I am not too fond of #13 at WW.

Don't hit the tree then

One of my least favorite holes in KC is #6 at Rosedale in the super left position.  Even though it's not super long, the RHBH line there is a "Jenkins" hyzer (overstable disc thrown really hard).  Perhaps it's easier for the lefty with something understable?

It's still pretty challenging for lefties. I usually have to just throw a flick on a hyzer line or try to muscle one straight forward to the hill. I'm not really a fan of this placement...

Just picked up the last one of the individual baskets and played a few holes with him. He said if 4-5 more people still wanted some then he would break up the last 9 holes.
