Water Works / Re: Pin Movement At Water Works

« on: June 12, 2012, 10:22:57 PM »

It seems that the pole for hole 15 will not go far enough into the ground to be able to lock it down. Should I leave in the position it has been in or move it to one of the other positions?

It is OB. Because the lie is marked directly under the disc.

One of the customers had a Discraft hat on,it shows a basket on the side of the hat 3 or 4 times!

That was just like the Discraft hats I have from the Ace Race. It was the same guy wearing his DD shirt when they were at his house.

Where you been Utz. Been lots of conversation here on the board about the PDGA leagues. Looks like its probably not happening here. I don't think many people want to pay the PDGA for league ratings.

Found and Lost / Found a Set of Keys at Cliff Drive (2/25)

« on: February 25, 2012, 04:02:00 PM »

I found a set of keys on hole 13 at Cliff today, they were about 100 ft down the fairway off the tee. There is a car door clicker and a special tool on them. Let me know if they might be yours.

 I would be annoyed if someone played heavy metal or country music while golfing.

Yeah, those two types of music don't belong on the course, but then again neither does rap music and that seems to be what most people are playing around here.

This is the reason why we probably shouldn't play music during money rounds. Everybody's taste is different. Music doesn't bother me while playing, however music I can't stand does. i.e. rap & country.

It seems acceptable to ask them to turn it off at the beginning of the round or whenever they start playing it. However it seems a little silly to allow them to play it and expect them to mute it while you are throwing.

Oh, got ya. It is a little close. But hopefully as mentioned before, DG is big enough in KC to support both.

Can't you already buy discs right there at OK Joe's? A little like building a Walgreen's directly across from where a CVS has been for years. But they do it all the time anyway.

Actually Kevin it seems more like building a Walgreen's next to a gas station that has a small selection of medicine.

The idea of changing this game from what it is now--that has obviously attracted many as the popularity is on a steady rise--to what a few people want it to be in order for them to make a living from it is a joke. I agree with those that stated they don't really see this ever becoming a spectator sport that makes lots of money. If it were to become that it would ruin disc golf as we know it. Courses would become expensive to play just like ball golf, thus ruining the factor that has caused disc golf to boom, it is cheap. Thinking that making people not smoke or wearing collared shirts is going to make it more marketable is laughable. I'm a disc golf player and every time I have tried to watch disc golf events on the internet or in person I get bored and I go play disc golf. It is a game for the players, not for spectators and corporations.

being a former smoker i would agree with my dad on this one. No sport will stop growin based on if people smoke or not. i would rather see drug testing at pdga events first before i see a ban on something that is legal.

The only time a sport should ban something that is legal is when the sport is held in a enclosed area. Seeing as disc golf is out in the open there should be no ban. 

Drug testing makes even less sense than banning cigarettes. Illegal substances are already banned during competition, what people put in their body on their own time is NOBODY's business, especially not the PDGA's.

I have one that I bought on ebay 5+ years ago for $100, has pretty much been sitting outside ever since, the chains are totally rusted but the rest is in good shape. I also added an inner layer of chains because when it had just the one layer it didn't catch all that well. Definitely worth the price if you are wanting something for practicing putting at home.

That sucks you lost a brand new disc. I would suggest not throwing any disc without your contact info on it. It is rare to get a disc back that has your name and number, but brand new with no contact info, forget about it.

Water Works / Re: hate this course

« on: September 30, 2011, 08:35:24 AM »

Saying that you hate Water Works in this particular forum is what makes people think you're a moron.  Your arguments have removed all doubt.

ok so let me get this straight because i post my opinion of a course in the course topic makes me a moron? did i get that right? and ur calling me a moron?

Your inability to formulate proper sentences and your use of text slang such as no1 and ur might have something to do with the moron thing. It really is preferred that you type with proper sentences, punctuation, and capitalization, it makes your posts much easier to read. Had you done that I think your criticism would probably not have received such a beating, even though your opinion stinks, because WW is by far the best Disc Golf course I have ever played .

theres no good disc golf game out yet ive looked so for now i stick with the real thing lol

Sport Champions on PS3 move is a pretty good one. Guaranteed to not give you a rash.
