General Banter / Re: INTRO - Heading your way ... update 8/30!

Well I must be doing something right because I just accepted a job offer and will be moving out to KC in a couple of weeks!  Figure I'll be busier than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest but I fully intend to put the fear of God into some trees once I arrive and get settled.

Thanks to all who helped, one way or another, especially the people @ DG World, where I'll probably be spending a good chunk of my paycheck :-)

Jesse James Park / Lost disc - reward if returned

« on: July 26, 2012, 09:05:22 PM »

So I overthrew #15 and my go-to driver wound up in the schule, probably closer to the path than to the pin, probably not very deep.  I spent 20 minutes searching for it, no luck.  It's a white Polaris LS, name & number on the back.  If you find it, give me a shout - I'll pay your postage and $5 extra paypal.

Plus 100000 extra internetz!!!

TIA,

Update - Been here for 10 days now, played Swope, Jesse James, Water Works and Rosedale top (and reviewed 'em all on DGCR) but the temps are getting me down.  Wifey's telling me to go play one more - she suggested Rosedale down under - which I'm gonna try to do before the big bird takes me back to la la land on Friday.

Just to let you know though - you guys have it ALL OVER So Cal when it comes to top-quality DG courses and I'll say the same thing to my buddies when I get back.  The "great" courses of the LA basin - Oak Grove, Huntington, La Mirada, etc. - are like the "average" courses around here.  The best that So Cal has to offer - Casitas or Wrightwood - aren't nearly as awesome as WW.

You guys got it made.  Glad to have had the last few days to play here and I'm looking forward to more once I get the job thing settled.

I'm all over So Cal, from HB to Sylmar with occasional forays out to Casitas and Wrightwood when the itch gets too bad.

I'll be in KC from 7/14 through 7/25 but as much as I want to throw plastic until my arm falls off, my main project is to find a job where I can do some damagething constructive when I do pull up stakes.  Until then my actual play schedule is very up in the air.

Can't wait though.  I've played WW and Swope - if all goes well in the interview department I'll park wifey at a mall somewhere, play those two again and sample the KS courses as well as that new one they just put in in Kearney.

Baz here, sitting at his computer in Southern California, thinking about what life's gonna be like when he moves to KC ...

... which is gonna happen later on in the year, probably fall-ish (or sooner if I find work).  Thought I'd introduce myself - I'm an old f@rt, been playing rec for quite a while, on DGCR pretty much all the time.  I'm a solid 815 player (internet distance - no, woops, that's my PDGA rating), hope to shoot a round or two when I come out to visit in late July ...
