General Banter / Re: Pay to play in KC

« on: July 05, 2013, 09:00:47 pm »

Pmart there will always be people who hate new ideas or judge before knowing. I like your idea, its been in the back of my brain for a while now, but like the formentioned said I do not have a track of land (atleast within 50 miles) of KC to attempt to do this. If anyone needs a grounds keeper for a private course, that will pay a decent salary, I will gladly do it. I will not need any workers, just equipment, and yes I have a degree in turf management, and soon to have a Business Management degree. Chainsaw, weedeater, backpack sprayer, 50-72" mower, hand tools, 18+ baskets, and time is all i need. Plenty of good guys that can do layouts/design around town. Just let me know when and where and i'll be there.

With that being said you should go check out SMPark. One of my co-workers left our course and went to JOCo parks and Rec and has been doing a bang up job on the course there. New gravel around pads, defined fairways, proper mowing and trimming, and it's not pay to play.

Prairie Center / Pin movement

I love you guys, so don't take this the wrong way, because i just played a horrific round, but can we get the pin's moved out at PC? They have been in the same positions since late May. Now that I live 2 minutes from the course I have played there about 10-15 times in the last 5 weeks and I would like to lose my disc's on other parts of the course. I do appreciate the work that is done to maintain the course, and let me know if I can be of any assistance.

Found and Lost / Bad PC Round

« on: June 28, 2013, 10:11:43 pm »

After a good layup drive on #13 I flick jerked my beloved orange and black misprint DD stamped Boss into the creek about 1/2 way from the bend to the left basket. I didn't have my scuba gear and machete to go get it, so the brave soul who wants to grab it I will either give you a crisp $10 bill or a 6er of your choice.

I also flick jerked my other standard orange blizzard boss in the Shhh on the left of #14 and couldnt find it as well (before the treeline). That one isn't as dear to me, but as you can tell this round wasn't going my way

My next shot on #14 landed my Ape in a tree that took me 15 minutes and one stuck putter to get down, and after yanking 8 ticks off of me I think im going to ice my shoulder and go to bed.

Cool, sorry for the late reply. I think I can make 10 (be there about 9:30). Got to get up and cut holes in the roof, but it shouldnt take to long and "getting up" in my house with 2 kids means 6am (and thats sleeping in from my normal 4:15am wake up to go to work).

I was playing With Harold and the boys this morning at Rosy. I believe it was #9 in long position. I grip locked it to the right, threw a nice reverse spike right at the edge of the woods next to the basket, and it was gone. I walked all of that treacherous hill from the top to the DU hole and I couldnt find it. Name and Number are on it, but if you find it and feel that you want to keep it thats cool too.

General Banter / Re: stolen basket

« on: May 03, 2013, 09:19:49 pm »

ok two Items then im done.

1: how about contacting the local scrap yards and faxing over or emailing a picture, give them a $100 reward for their purchase of it and notification to police.

2: how about a tracking device inside/incorperated into the basket. Yes i imagine that it would be expensive for ALL the baskets, but lets be honest... it is usually a certain basket that is easy to steal like the Practice Basket on Lakeside. So 1 device on 1 basket on each course that is prone to theft. If the battery lasts 2 years on a new basket, I think by the time that expired, the basket has reached a good age of maturity anyway. If it is stolen just reup the contract and put a new tracker on it until we know the location isnt a high theft area. Hard to have nice things but good to protect them. (or do what we did at my golf course and have the police install a motion sensor camera next to the road so that if someone walks up it starts recording, pretty handy at catching vandals as well as theives).

Well if anger was anyone's guess, i'd check the lake to see if someone tossed it in... I assume it was stolen with a pickup and bolt cutters, they just happened to either toss or keep the lock. There is a master set of keys for all masterlock padlocks, but I would think that would have taken too much time to find the right key. Oh well, hope they get caught and arrested whomever they are.

Hi there! Do you have a man crush...or a lady crush...or a lady man crush on the Judge? Great! I will buy all your Wizards! Looking for 10ish Wizards on the cheapish. I like the putter and I have a practice basket that I need to quit throwing random discs at and actually practice with the same putter I have. I would prefer they were not overly molested against the chains. A ding here and some dirt rubbed on there is ok. Newish is great as well, just want them in bulk. So you Loomi of the disc hording world let me know if you have more than 5 to sell and lets make a deal! (no actual Wizards were harmed in the making of this post)
