Prairie Center / Stolen Chains on holes 4,9,17

« on: March 04, 2011, 02:21:03 PM »

If you have noticed that these baskets haven't been catching the same there is a good reason why. It appears sometime around last spring someone has upgraded their basket at home at our expense. There are six chains on the inner ring on this type of Innova Diskcatcher (now diskejector) baskets. It just so happens that hole 4 has three chains missing, hole 9 has one and hole 17 has two missing. All these baskets can conveniently be accessed by the road which makes it easy for someone to grab. We need to get these 6 chains replaced and make sure all the chains are crimped down so there not so easy to remove.

I don't think we kept our over/under score correctly. We knew better who was leading and by how many. I had a two stroke lead going into the back. I parred 14 and they both birdied and Dick & Brian got a bogey on 15. I parred hole 3 and they both birdied. I was then tied with Leo&Deano until they bogeyed 6 giving me the lead.

Tournaments / Re: Old Settlers Open - PDGA C Tier - 9/4

Thanks Tom for running a great tournament. Congrats to Cooper for his first cash in Open, now you can enjoy paying $75 or more a year for your PDGA dues, although you can still play am as long as your rating stays below 970.

I think a 45 is possible with the conditions we will have on Saturday, which would be around a 1050 rated round. Monday was 95 high with winds south at 10mph with gusts up to 25 and Saturday will be only 80 for high with winds s/sw 7mph with gusts up to 18mph. I think it is easier to play pc with a south wind, especially with the smell you get from the north.

 I don't know how 16 is going to work if there are people using the soccer fields, there may be a back up there if you have to wait on people to clear out.

I challenge all disc golfers to go out there Saturday and try and beat that score.

so 11 long is in the trees a little and too the left right?

if i remember right i'm just trying to figure out what kind of line you need to get that.  anny?

I took the anny route with my ten time eagle which was my second ace with that disc. It is a blind shot from the tee and it just landed in the back of the basket. Mark Albers saw it go in and gave me a big high five, but I didn't think it was good tell I got up there.

Nice ace Bryan. He better have Pacifico or heads are gonna roll...

Which heads are gonna roll? Mikedopen. did offer a Pacifico before the round started, but I took a Nat light and look what it got me. So I will be keeping with the tradition that Mikedopen started and go with the #1 disc golf beer of choice. Any other special request?

Found and Lost / Know anyone who got their bag stolen?

« on: August 18, 2010, 05:50:39 PM »

Check this out, this guy is selling all his disc golf stuff on CL for $75. It's possible this guy either found or stole this bag. He seems to know a little about how much some of it cost, but most disc golfers do. Supposedly he left town a few weeks ago too.

Tournaments / Re: Graceland Babay!

« on: March 04, 2009, 07:36:55 PM »

The Date for this event is April 25 (dubs) and 26 (Graceland Open).

Good to see Lamoni back! This is one of my favs. If I only have one day to play that weekend I will be there, otherwise I plan on going to see a real Chief at the Green Country Open, a NT in Pawhuska,Ok. The courses were designed by Kevin McCoy and they are sick. I think Kevin is getting married to Courtney on the Island that weekend.
They have Camping on site with utilities and a Indian cosino a couple of miles down the road. This sounds more to your liking, Jack. This is a Pro tournament, but that hasn't stopped you in the past.

Thanks John. I really appreciate the time you put in on this. It does help me to have a measurement on how my league rounds compare to PDGA rounds.

There may be more people not finishing there bad rounds now to protect their rating.

I would like to see my round ratings, because I know mine should be higher than 961! The two rounds at WYCO I was rated at 986 and 994 and I played in two leagues which I was at -5 at Olathe and -5 at Rosy. That means those league rounds had to be rated at 920 to 930. I wonder if you have enough rated players to plug into your formula to get accurate results similiar to the PDGA's. Do you plug the SSA into that rating?

General Banter / Re: How do I train my dog to find lost discs?

« on: March 31, 2008, 10:53:59 AM »

Good luck with that Corinna, I have been trying to get my dog Zoe to stop chasing discs. Zoe doesn't retrieve them though, just slobbers all over them to let me know she found it first.

Most service dogs begin training at about 16-18 months of age, so a puppy may have a problem learning difficult tasks.

To train your dog I would first get the dogs favorite treat or toy. Walk the dog to the disc make it sit and speak and then give it the reward. It sometimes takes at least 50-60 reps, before it catches on.

Prairie Center / Re: Prairie Center Distances

« on: February 28, 2008, 06:27:21 PM »

We will need to shoot those distances with the laser range finder, because I wasn't always getting consistant results. There are placements that aren't visible on about every pad and it will be worse when the trees green up. Let me know if I can help you with that.

Thanks,
Bryan
