The ADGA and their HUGE Ace Pots

Sorry you two, but I am going to hit it this weekend!!!!! :cool:

[my_hero]

Terry, you've shot your wad. :o

Laura, that's a deal!!!!! $900 each is a good days work. :D

No Sir!!!! I am just getting started for the year. :cool:

This will be the last weekend to hit the ace in short positions on certain holes. After this sunday everything will be moved to the long positions in order to prepare for the Z to A doubles! :D

[sandalman]

six long fixed?

seven long up the hill?

14 back to long after two weeks? (john's bird is gonna look good in Own the Hole!)

18 back to long after two weeks? (my pair of birds is gonna look good too!)

Six was repaired by Ken Cantrell.

Seven will tried to be moved for the event only.

14 and 18 can be moved back after the event.

[sandalman]

move 14 backj short, but leave 18 long! :D

Speaking of A-Z doubles, are there any Masters around who need a partner. I would like to play but don't know who is playing. As you may know, my partner has left the Great State of TX and moved on to greener forests. This being a sanctioned event, I need to play Advanced not Open. aktjr@charter.net

I knw Charles Cox is looking for a partner. You might also want to try David Covalt! :cool:

[sandalman]

i heard it was gonna be Q-Kennedy and Covalt-Geesa in open masters.

Know how to get hold of Charles?

And nice Avatar finally Sandalman, /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Yep, John BOOMhower and I are gonna see if we can accumulate some points to get a Worlds invite to Tulsa. Been slacking too much already this year.

I gotta win something, I am tired of paying for tournaments AND plastic :confused:

Evil you have a PM

Thanks Terry. I'll holler at him this evening. :D
I don't think the points are gonna be very good for <font color="yellow">SECOND </font> Brutha. :cool:

[lauranovice]

Q is not playing the A-Z doubles.

Now with Q I would play open. Too bad.......

How come Q is not playing? Thought he was talking Kennedy into playing?!?!? :confused:

Should be great weather on sunday. Everyone come out and watch me hit a $1800 ace!!!!!! Should have at least 40 people in the ace pot, so we will be over the $1800 mark!!! :cool:

[bslamoreaux]

Of course it will get hit. I can't be there.... :mad:

Good luck everyone...

Brian

[my_hero]

:eek:

[bslamoreaux]

Ease up there belly-full-of-gerbils-man!

At least now it makes sense why you squirm when you walk. :D

[my_hero]

Too bad you can't be there to split it with me. Imagine how many hamsters you can buy with $1800! :o:o:o/msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :D

[bslamoreaux]

I figure you would know as I bet you already have them on hold at the store for yourself...... :D

[my_hero]

Actually, i went straight to the supplier. Screw the middle man. I figured the more the merrier. Besides, i'm doing this for you! I just hope i can keep them all alive by the time Christmas rolls around. Guess what your getting in your stocking! :oWhat you do with them after that is between you, the stinky hamster, and God! :o:o:p :confused:

LMAO

[my_hero]

Thanks to Claydog for donating an extra $1, Veteran's ace is now $ 1,800. There will be no shot at it next Sunday because of A-Z Doubles.(that you'll be participating in. :D)

John, Can I say : [inappropriate word] here? :confused:

See ee en es oh are!

[my_hero]

[I'm a potty-mouth!]? :) :p

Another chance at the HUGE ace pot this sunday!!!! $1800 plus entries. Pep, if you do not go to Okieville, it is your turn to run the mini!! You have been notified!! :D
Sign up early (9:30) as I am sure it will be packed again.

On Monday May 30, we will play Team Golf!! We will start seeding at 9:30 and start at 10. This is a match play format and allot of fun!!! $5 per person.

How about BBQ afterwards?!?!? Anyone interested?!?!?


Wed nights ace pot is $114 plus entries for next week. :cool:

[my_hero]

Pep...you better get there at 9am. I want to sign up at 9:01. :)

BTW, If you type c.e.n.s.o.r. without the periods you get "[I'm a potty-mouth!]." Now why would [I'm a potty-mouth!] be cens.ored? WTF? :confused:

[sandalman]

actually, i told skip i would take it this week. now if Pep wants to thats cool, he can have it and i'll go next week. but the chances of Pep actually running a mini are about as good as getting an ace on hole 6 long! :D

Hey I have ALMOST hit 6..........but alas, you are right! :D

My first ace was 6 short.

John are you trying to stir up trouble there?!?!?!? :cool:

[sandalman]

and if you put html tags that dont do anything ... like < / B > inside of potty mouth words, you can escape the cen[/b]sors. the cen[/b]sors are g[/b]ay idi[/b]ots and mor[/b]ons who prefer dogs over pus[/b]sy.

ooops, almost forgot... :D

I prefer dog over cat too. Cat is too stringy. :p

I will check with Juli on the team golf, but I am pretty sure we will be in. :)

[27dogs]

i'm down for some team golf.

[sandalman]

yes! if you can , definitely come on over monday! team golf rules..... hey dude, say something the YGB thread... those boys all like team golf i think. and the YGBs can be competitive cuz it is seeded.

[reddman]

I've been there twice now. So far, I'm 5-0-1. :cool: I'll have a lot of family in town this weekend for a baby shower, but I hope to get out and play on Monday.

Pep, Did you see that it is your week?!?!?!?! /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Anyone interested in a BBQ after Team Golf??? We could go really cheap and just do dogs and burgers, but keep it minimal. Maybe a little CFO's too!!

Who has Z Boaz bag tags?? I bought this years first thing on Saturday at the A to Z. Somehow got #3. Was able to hold off Shawn Wasden to hang on to it for the first challenge on Wed Night. Guess I will have to put it up for all to try for on Sunday. :cool:

BBQ sounds like a great idea.

Maybe I will spend part of my $1800 on hotdogs :D

Chris, Sunday is yours!!!! :cool:

[jasonc]

Chris, Sunday is yours!!!! :cool:



Just to make sure he sees it.

I think he's ignoring you though :D.

I think so too

Hey Pat, Looks like Pep is not going to run Sunday, so can you plan on running it? That or I could do it! :confused:

[sandalman]

i was planningin it all along :)

my mom's in town, so i WILL need a vehicle in which to sit... or i can hang under the tree if its not raining or up in the pavillion even either way. will need somewhere to stash the cash during the round.

[ardmorejt]

hey do yall have minis on sunday down there??? haven't played in texas in a while

Sunday morning at the Vet. 10:00 am start, hehehehe.

[my_hero]

Is he MIA?

With $1800+ on the line I bet he shows up! :)

[sandalman]

yeah he'll show up. he'll call at 10 til and say he'll be there in 5 minutes... then he'll come pulling in at 10.04... then he'll proceed to shot +2

:D:D:D

[jeterdawg]

Well was it hit? Didn't get to play today with family over...definitely there next week since the JDGF event is on Sat. Is the ace pot still alive?!?!?

[my_hero]

Still alive!!!!

I had divot marks on holes 5, 9, and 10 that were within a 3' circle. :confused: :eek:

[27dogs]

what time for team golf tomorrow?

[jasonc]

Seeding starts @9:30.

[27dogs]

thank you so much kind sir. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif i'll send ginetta home to you now. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif i'm done with her. :)

[jeterdawg]

So the Sunday mini ace pot is at $1800+ (will it be over $2000 with entries this week?)...but what about the Wed. mini for tonight?

Sunday is going to be $1870 plus entries.

Wednesday Nights mini ace pot starts at $114 tonight
:cool:

[willyc]

Might need to start showing up! :cool:

It would be nice to see you out there instead of taking your money at the poker table :cool:

[my_hero]

:eek: :eek: OH SNAP!!! :eek: :eek:

Go pep with your bad self!

[my_hero]

I find it very unlikely there will be huge ace pots at Veterans. Hole 15 &amp; 16 have ACE ME written all over them. It's a nice thought. <font color="purple"> </font>



$1,870 + entries at the Sunday mini!!!! Holes 15 and 16 must not have "<font color="red">ACE ME</font> " written large enough for us to read :p

[sandalman]

16 in long is a dam difficult ace. 2, 4, 9, even 5, 10, and 11, probably offer better chances for an ace.

Who is in charge of that? :cool:

That's why. :)

[27dogs]

you forgot hole 8 and 13 and 15 which are possible.

[sandalman]

hole 8 is possible for the top 0.5% of the world's players. its long now.

hole 13 is also long, and while possible, is out of reach for at least 65% of the players. at least hole 16 is reachable by everyone.

and hole 15 was mentioned in the original post, fool! :D

[27dogs]

doh!!!! i meant hole 7 not 8, my bad.

[my_hero]

To my knowledge, Dave O. from Dallas, is the only one to have aced hole #7.....and he did it with a Scorpion in the early 90's...before the drought that killed some KEY trees!

[sandalman]

really??? that kinda surprises me. well, actually even tho its a hyzer for righties, there are the blocker trees above the basket that make it tough for hyzers. it plays pretty sweet for lefties, even though there is no hyzer - its an S. a case where first glance says righty, but deeper analysis reveals it as more lefty-favorable.

[my_hero]

Babies are great! Ryan got really tired and cranky 10 minutes before the wedding. Amy sent me and the kiddo home! Yee-Haw!!!! (We were there 2 hours before for pictures.)

Back to hole #7....remember, the was a huge tree 33% of the way down the fairway that pushed the righty hyzer higher than the ace line that we have today. You basically were playing tree lotto back then. I've hit metal 3 times, 2 pans and a number plate, never the net. Justin Kerr splashed out at the club champs in Oct.

Ironically enough, hole #7 now used to be hole #15 :D

[sandalman]

um... whats ironic about that?

[my_hero]

um... whats ironic about that?



Well, if you didn't know that the course layout changed in 1997, then you'd wonder why the hell someone was saying #15 has ACE ME written all over it. :D( i know......it was a stretch! ) :D

[sandalman]

even if i had no idea of the old layout, i'd think that saying #15 has ACE ME written all over it is stating the obvious.

john, you need to get out more :D

[my_hero]

As Fred Durst would say, "We are in agreeance!" (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=agreeance&amp;r=f) (be sure to read all of the definitions) :p

[sandalman]

yikes. thanks for the link... i just wasted that last 30 minutes in the blink of an eye :cool:

[my_hero]

Yes, it's a useful website. I heard a teenager say some F-ed up word the other day, and referenced it there. I can't say the word here, or the definition! :D

I sat on that site for 2 hours last nght and almost an hour this morning. Yes...Thanks Very Much John. I'll try very hard to return the favor one day. ;)

[my_hero]

Maybe we should start our own little UrbanDictionary.com language here on the board. Some of those words are KRAZY, and you'd never know the definition unless you read it from UD.com

[sandalman]

salad tossing comes to mind :D

[my_hero]

:o

[jeterdawg]

I'm guessing the ace pot wasn't hit again...

I'm angry that I didn't get to play, but oh well.

[Laura12670]

Sorry to interrupt but I am looking for a Chris Wren, and was wondering if anybody knew him or how to contact him? :D

Baby,
You have a PM.
:cool:

[my_hero]

Toolen!!! What is the official ace pot now????

[lauranovice]

After Sunday's entries, it was up to $1952.
( I can remember that one because it was the year my parents got married. )

[my_hero]

What a great year....what an even greater ace pot value!

[jeterdawg]

Let's just hope it grows this weekend and doesn't shrink during the WCO!

[my_hero]

That's not what i'm hoping! :D

[sandalman]

if it gets much bigger we're gonna have to start asking people if they want the cash option or the 20 year annuity :D

[27dogs]

cash :D

[my_hero]

Who me? What ace? Huh? :D

Boom Boom

[willyc]

I guess that I need to show up again. Missed hitting it on hole 7 by that much " ". :D

[my_hero]

It went OVER $ 2,000 last Sunday! Will it top the amount that Z-Boaz's ace did a few years ago?.....Not if i have a say in anything! :D

What's the official number Toolen?.......and don't start any trouble here. :D

$2026 in the main ace pot. We still have the 2 back up pots of $500 and $250. John, you can just stay away from the ace pot, because I am hitting it on Sunday! Fathers Day would be fitting for me to hit the ace since I have 6 kids at home for the summer!!!!!
:cool:

[cgflesner]

That would be a sweet ace!!! :D

I will be going after hole #4 and #9 on Sunday. ;)

[my_hero]

Yes, 4 and 9 for sure....but also 2, 5, 7, 10, 11, 15, 16, and 17. Lots of *CHANCES*!

Chris, I haven't forgot about the X-Pred...what kind of Quality stuff do you throw? :D

[cgflesner]

I need some dx aviars for my practice basket.

[my_hero]

I said Quality stuff! Do we need to define Quality on this message board again? :D

[cgflesner]

I think that the most important disc in the bag falls under quality.
:cool:

[my_hero]

I think you may be missing the point. :p

[bslamoreaux]

In John's world, "quality" only means one thing. DISCRAFT!

[lauranovice]

...and in your world it means the disc without hamster scratches??? :confused: / :o / :D
oops, did i really type that and hit enter. darn, i hope that doesn't get me in trouble

[cgflesner]

I got the point, but I don't call that stuff quality and I don't through it.

[my_hero]

Well i don't think anybody "throughs" it! :confused:

[my_hero]

...and in your world it means the disc without hamster scratches??? :confused: / :o / :D
oops, did i really type that and hit enter. darn, i hope that doesn't get me in trouble



Way to let him have it Laura!!!! LMFAO!!!!

[bslamoreaux]

...and in your world it means the disc without hamster scratches??? :confused: / :o / :D
oops, did i really type that and hit enter. darn, i hope that doesn't get me in trouble



Wow! What did I do to you to deserve that? I was just sitting here minding my own business with John's "friends" and POW!

Actually, that was a pretty good one. :D

[my_hero]

Oh man, it was so good it made me cry! :D

[27dogs]

take it like a hamster :D

[my_hero]

Starts at $ 2,026 this Sunday. It could be a very large mini on Sunday. The ace pot could leap another $150 if/when 75 players show up on Sunday. Will it top The Famous Z-Boaz ace that was worth $ 2,784?

[discgolfdog]

Gotta love Laura getting in the hamster smack on Lamareauxey%#!. Never could spell that right. Maybe we should just start calling him hamster. :D

[bslamoreaux]

Now I've got the discgolfdog hounding me too.... :D

Lets get back to the subject at hand... $2026 in the ace pot, huh Terry? Plus entries you say? Wow! That's incredible....!

[my_hero]

Don't try to change the subject Mr. PooPooeaux! :o

[sandalman]

yeah, nice diversion attempy, hammie!

who's running it sunday?

[discgolfdog]

We haven't mixed the divisions in a long time. Let the women play as a group or be mixed in with the rest depending on how THEY want to play. WHO'S WITH ME!? :D

[discgolfdog]

Brian can be on a card with 3 of his furry little friends. :o

[bslamoreaux]

We haven't mixed the divisions in a long time. Let the women play as a group or be mixed in with the rest depending on how THEY want to play. WHO'S WITH ME!? :D



I like that.

[bslamoreaux]

Brian can be on a card with 3 of his furry little friends. :o



I dont think I like that....

[lauranovice]

I may be the only woman playing Sunday. Juli is out of town for the next couple weeks. With Pat C being out of town, Steph hasn't been coming out. So, it's up to Ginetta and if Tricia shows up. Otherwise, there won't be a full card of women.

Getting back to Brian, I'm not sure, Clay, but I think there might be something in the rules about not mixing species on the cards. So, Brian can't have his little friends on his card. He'll just have to keep them where he usually keeps them...where we can't see them. :o

[my_hero]

Mixing the divisions is a great idea. We haven't done that since Clay and I were running mini's....15 months or more!

Lamoreaux and his "Friends" need to start really far away from the rest of us. No telling what they plan on doing once they get back into the woods. Check out Brian's new threads:

http://65.61.34.145/gerbil_shirt2.GIF


Now here are some of Lamoreaux's "Friends" that i wouldn't mind playing with:

http://agblog.blogspot.com/Mice.jpg

[sandalman]

jhn, you just about got me fired! :eek:

wanna mix divisions? - run the freakin mini :D

[discgolfdog]

I'll help whoever runs it.

[sandalman]

btw, i have your winnin's from last week, claydog

[my_hero]

jhn, you just about got me fired!



If you're serious, then tell your boss that i said he needs to open up his eyes! You can see more skin than that on the PBS channel you guys are fighting for! :o

[lauranovice]

Yes, but we don't watch PBS while working...
and my manager is [I'm a potty-mouth!].
The Mickey mouse photo is not too bad, but please link them next time so we have a choice to not view until we get home. Heck, if I get fired over the discussion board, it will probably be that I'm on it too much rather than what's on it. We don't get breaks and I need a mind clearing alternative to assist in moving on to the next case. This, to me, is a good choice.
Of course, while you were typing this we were having a discussion between another co-worker and my manager as to which was hotter, Elton John or Freddy Mercury.

[sandalman]

when was the last time i was serious of this board? (except for on the zbuzzz thread? :D)

[lauranovice]

I can't believe g-a-y is a [I'm a potty-mouth!] word. :confused:

[sandalman]

yes, the fact that g[/b]ay is cen[/b]sored is kinda g[/b]ay in and of itself. who's running this anyway, some idio[/b]t?

[lauranovice]

so why didn't it [I'm a potty-mouth!] you?

[sandalman]

cuz i'm an a[/b]ss :D its enuf to pi[/b]ss off the pope, isnt it! :D

[my_hero]

Pat has administrative perks. :D

[sandalman]

but not that type.

really its simple. you only have to know two thing... first, how the system does its censo[/b]ring, and second, how a web page interprets HTML code tags.

the first one is easy... it simply compares all the letters between spaces against the bad words list.

for the HTML part, the trick is that webpages treat characters between brackets as HTML tags. < and > are brackets. for example < / B > , which means "end bold"... so if you simply put an HTML tag inside of a word, the result is that is gets ignored.

but, it also makes the word not match the bad word list, so it gets displayed just like ya want it.

:D

[my_hero]

Thanks for the bean spillage! :o

[lauranovice]

oh, geez, Pat, I can't even work the DVD player.
Everyone that knows me knows I am not a potty-mouth!
The worst word I use on the course is poo, and that word usually gets a bunch of giggles.
g-a-y is NOT a bad word. Yes, any board administrator that would blindly not allow a word expressing someone's orientation is not good. Geez, it allows us to describe Brian's alleged relationship with hamsters, but not my manager's relations with the people he is attracted to? That is sooo wrong. :confused:
BTW, I should have just taken the day off 'cause I cannot force myself to work. I finally just told a co-worker I am definitely coming in tomorrow and will hopefully be in the mood to work.

[my_hero]

Geez, it allows us to describe Brian's alleged relationship with hamsters, but not my manager's relations with the people he is attracted to? That is sooo wrong.



That is possibly one of the message board's GREATEST POSTS!

It took like a year or two before i wasn't associated with the word Salad anymore. I wonder how long it will be before the Hamsters find their way out of Brian. <font color="red"> OH SNAP! </font> I meant i wonder how long it will be before we quit associating Brian with Hamsters. :o

[lauranovice]

Okay, let me see if I can do this HTML thing.
c<>ensored
g<>ay
b<>ad
Oh, well, like I pointed out above, I'm not very computer literate nor a potty-mouth. I tried typing with those < and > things in every position in the words. I won't need them too often.
cen[/b]sor
g[/b]ay

[bslamoreaux]

Geez, it allows us to describe Brian's alleged relationship with hamsters, but not my manager's relations with the people he is attracted to? That is sooo wrong.

That sad part is that John is the one with the rodent affection, it wasn't even about me until John turned it. Nice turn John. Dont forget to have EMS on speed dial Sunday.... :D

[discgolfdog]

The hamster thing is kind of cold considering I heard they were actually gerbils.We wouldn't want to offend Brian or his favorite varmints. :o

[lauranovice]

yes, Clay, please do excuse my lack of political correctness. I should be more sensitive to the rodent population.

[sandalman]

laura, you used the brackets correctly, but ya need to put something in between them. my preferred tag is /b ... do this without the spaces < / b >

[lauranovice]

okay, I got it to work (added to my edit above). Thanks, Pat. :cool:Cool, feel like I just took completed a computer class with just a little extra help from the teacher.

[my_hero]

cen[/b]sorship is Ga[/b]y with a capital G

[lauranovice]

Correction, John, there is nothing wrong with being g[/b]ay. There is something wrong with cens[/b]orship, especially blanket censo[/b]rship of words without regard to meaning.

[sandalman]

you guys are fast learners :D

laura i think john meant that cen[/b]sorship is joyous and happy!

[lauranovice]

Oh, yes, I guess if ignorance is bliss...then cen[/b]sorship is joyous and happy!

[27dogs]

you are right laura i am a lesbian trapped in a man's body. :Di've been fighting it all my life. :D

[sandalman]

shari's posting under frank's account again! :D

[jeterdawg]

I take it by the lack of posts that the ace pot survived again. I'll be out of town for the next two, so maybe it will keep it up a little longer!

I was driving past Veteran's the other day on the way to the Walgreens and noticed the car in front of me had the license plate (from Texas) "PDGA" and was wondering whose car that is. It was just so random...I tried to take a picture with my phone, but the plate didn't show up.

[my_hero]

DH,

As often as you talk about the ace pot, how come we NEVER see you? It's going to be REALLY HARD for you to hit the ace when you are not at the park, but that does increase my chances.:DI hope it lasts at least long enough for you and the BIG D.R. to get ONE shot at it!

I really don't know how i missed #5 this week. :confused:

[jeterdawg]

I always plan on coming, and then something ALWAYS comes up to keep me from going. Vacation is going to keep me away this weekend, and probably the following one too. But the next weekend, I'm definitely there.

I know yesterday was father's day, but I was still going to be there until my wife made plans with her parents without asking me!!! DOH!!!

I wish the Vet mini's were on Saturday morning...I'd be much more likely to make them. By the way, I've taken two shots at the current pot. Only two came close.

[dannyreeves]

The Big DR wishes he could be there.

[my_hero]

I love y'all like brothers, but like i said earlier....it only increases my chances!!! LMAO!!!! :D

[sandalman]

terry, bring the checkbook sunday! my full name is Patrick D Brenner.

[discgolfdog]

The "D" must stand for Didn't get an ace. Toolen will be writing a check to me on Sunday. :D

[my_hero]

LOL.

Y'all are both <font color="red">WRONG!</font>

Terry, it's spelled M.A.I.U.R.O.......actually, if you start it with an "M", and end it with an "O", it'll get cashed. I've seen the bank cash some seriously misspelled stuff!

All three of you can have a split of TOOLEN's ace!!!!! :cool:

[sandalman]

ok. make mine $500.

[my_hero]

Toolen you have a PM.

Yea I read it

[discgolfdog]

No secret talks there guys. John and I scared the bejeebers out of 5 Sunday. This week it's mine! I'd be ok with Toolen hitting it though.

[my_hero]

Yea I read it



......waiting for a reply.

[my_hero]

No secret talks there guys. John and I scared the bejeebers out of 5 Sunday. This week it's mine! I'd be ok with Toolen hitting it though.



I have no secrets.....but what's your's and Steamboat's? :D

[willyc]

All of you are wrong cause it going to be the old geezers who bring it down! :eek:

[discgolfdog]

Right on! I'm an old geezer!

[my_hero]

Yea I read it



......waiting for a reply.



WHOA!!! A reply in person!!! Thanks Toolen.

[sandalman]

just got back from my luinchtime rounds at saginaw, and am now the proud owner of a brand new ACE DISC! hole #1, which i was playing as my fifth hole, 2004 Ace Race yellow... just a sweet flight down the left side of the line, a stall at and then a gentle dropin for the ONE.

<font color="purple"> i'm coming for my money on sunday! </font>

now.. do i retire that disc or not...? :confused:

[my_hero]

If you retire it, i found 2 more in "The Closet". They have the "I aced...." stamp, because the 2 people that were suppossed to receive them are impossible to get in touch with. I made contact with them 2 months after the ace race, but they never showed up when we were to meet. They are brothers. The Ireland brothers. Never saw them before the ace race, never seen them since.

[sandalman]

cool! i'd love to add them to the small collection i have. that just might be enuf to get me accept the USED zbuzzz in trade for the NEW holly! :D

[my_hero]

Oh....you'll be giving me the Holly for the 9/10. We shall see how bad you need these Glides for you SMALL collection...maybe bad enough for me to keep Leo 1st Z? :)

[sandalman]

dream on. i already promised to bring you my stack of old skul XL for ya to rummage thru. and dont forget i'm holding a swirlie for ya!

[okcacehole]

Pat - I guess I haven't played Saginaw...is it worth the trip? Short course? Long?

Congrats on the ace!

[sandalman]

its worth the trip if the trip in less than 10 minutes from where you are. otherwise, no.

its a short recreational nine holer. quite open. holes range from 200 to 300. i can bust out 2 trips around the nine over lunch, and get back to the office less than 15 minutes late :D good for upshot practice!

[my_hero]

It's a short 9 hole course. A very open course. Great for learning how to play in wind. It's worth the trip if you are passing by it, and have about 30minutes.

[my_hero]

Are you serious!!! Will someone hit this thing so i can sleep in <font color="red"> ONE </font> sunday!

I'll see what I can do for you ;)

[cgflesner]

Yall need to lay off the ace pot this weekend since I will be playing out of town!!!!!!!!!!!
:D

[sandalman]

you werent gonna hit it anyway :D

[cgflesner]

Have about an 80% better chance than a lefty. :p

[sandalman]

how do you figure that???

[cgflesner]

hole 2, 5, 9, 10, 11, 15 are all righty holes.

hole 4, and 7 have lefty lines.

so its a 33.3% better chance for a righty.

[sandalman]

oh my...

hole 2, very slight advantage to righty
hole 5, slight advantage to righty
hole 9, maybe a slight advantage for righty (i guess you dont know about the lefty hyzer there)
hole 10, extremely slight advantage to righty
hole 11, a barely discernible advantage to righty
hole 15, you gotta be kidding me. this one is as even as they get

hole 4, teeny weeny itsy bitsy advantage to lefty
hole 7, ever so minimal advantage to lefty

and you forgot:

hole 16, advantage lefty
hole 17, slight advantage lefty
hole 18, slight advantage lefty

and even hole 13, which may arguably have a lefty advantage depending on wind conditions (if the righty annie is there or not)

[my_hero]

Actually hole 15 is a LEFTY hole. Easy hyzer over the left side....huge pocket in the trees above the basket. I've been throwing a 2 finger there, and if you've looked at the Own The Hole stats, you'll see that i rarely 3 the hole. I've been off of the number plate a dozen times throwing the 2 finger.

[sandalman]

hole 15 is even. it may seem lefty cuz when the lefty hyzer (or RHFH) misses its a 6 foot gimme. when the righty misses it can be a 50' comeback from the skip! but the righty skip has just as legitimate a chance as the HBomb

[my_hero]

Sorry, it's not even. The righty line is much tougher to hit than hitting the giant blue TX sky that the lefty gets to throw. Which is why i "become" a lefty by throwing a right handed 2 finger shot.

I think a ROC strait up the middle is the way to go. I will attempt to prove it Sunday :p

[my_hero]

Buzzz maybe, roc never. :) Besides, who would rather have rocK rather than a buzzZ? We all know how much you like beer. :o

[jasonc]

Did someone mention <font color="yellow"> BEER </font> :D:D

BEER :cool:The only Buzz I play with :D

[dannyreeves]

I squared the number plate on 15 yesterday. SOOOO CLOSE!!!

[seewhere]

Happy Birthday Kid Roc

[my_hero]

Ditto DR. I'll give you a part of the $2400 that i win on Sunday for your gift. :)

[dannyreeves]

Sweet! Can I get my half up front? There is a big poker game tonight. Thanks! :D

[lauranovice]

Happy birthday, Danny.
BTW, Don aced 15 last Friday, but I guess that doesn't count :confused:

[my_hero]

OUCH!!!!! I don't want an ace at Vet's unless it's a Sunday morning. The odds are good that it'll be a Sunday morning, cuz that's the only time i have to play DG......Sundays and Wednesdays. Oh how i wish everyday was either Sun or Wed again......................what happened to all of my free time? Where did these shackles come from? :D Lamoreaux?? :eek:

[lauranovice]

Okay, are you and Brian moving from playing with rodents to "shackles"/bondage???
BTW, Don messed up Monday the 4th also when we were in Lewisville. He aced hole one at LL Woods instead of waiting until tomorrow. It was nice for me to be able to watch both of the aces, but I personally think I would have liked it better if he had waited for the weekend and I got to see the money instead of the ace. :D

[my_hero]

LMAO! Good thing the white stuff in the corner of the mouth was sugar glaze from a doughnut an hour before. :eek: That Brian guy is one sick puppy! :)

Tell Don congrats on the aces, but WAIT until LARGE ace POTs!

[bslamoreaux]

Okay, are you and Brian moving from playing with rodents to "shackles"/bondage???




Laura, I don't know what to say. John has developed some sort of Crush (A Discraft Crush of course) on me and just wont let it go. You should see some of the PM's he sends to me. I really should inform his wife.

:D:D:D

LMFAO! Go Kid Go! :D

[dannyreeves]

And by the way, what the FLICK happend to my post count? I whored it up for a long time to get that! :(

[jasonc]

I really should inform his wife.

:D:D:D



I did it for you, she said he's always some kind of obsession with tall guys that when he screams their last name it ends with oooooohhhhh /msgboard/images/graemlins/ooo.gif :D.

BTW John, make sure to wear house shoes when you go to bed, I don't know if I got all of the glass from that broken lamp or not :confused: ;) :D.

See you Sunday :p

[jasonc]

Oh and Happy B-day Danny :D

Woo-Hoo!!! LMAO again! I needed to read that to help me get through this Friday! :D

[my_hero]

Will it reach $ 2,500 this Sunday???? Will someone please post the actual ace pot value?

A lot of the Dallas boys are coming this Sunday, even Mikey Sayre!!!! (He needs something from me, and i need a case of Margarita mix!) :D

If it does not go down this Sunday we need to back up the baskets again.....at least until we go above and beyond the $2700 mark that Z-Boaz's pot hit 2 years ago. The ADGA needs to be the club that has awarded the largest club ace in disc golf history!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello....is this thing on? Am i connected to this thing they call the internet? Boomhauer once told me that all you have to do is type " w w w dot dot dot and anything you want after the dot and you get to see naked ladies." Well, i tried that. It doesn't work. :D

[my_hero]

The $2600 ace pot went down. Dennie Daddy-D Ortega banged #16. Congrats. I'm sure someone will post the official amount..... :)

[jeterdawg]

Well that really sucks...one week in the shorts and BOOM goes the dynamite! I knew it would be #16, just knew it. Are they going to stay short now for a couple of weeks? It's nice to shoot under par...helps with the confidence!

By the way, did anyone catch the article in the Star-Telegram? It's pretty good, and pretty accurate. I'm not so sure having 5 courses on a map should include Saginaw though...
It's right next to a Tour de Lance article, seems very fitting! It rates the necessary energy as the equivalent to a coach potato. I think it's at least as demanding as "weekend warrior--rec league athletes," at least at Veteran's...in the summer!

[lauranovice]

You want numbers........
If I remember correctly from yesterday morning,
the ace pot total was $2640. ($2480 balance +$160 added from Sunday's entries)
There were 83 people out there. (Three did not pay for memberships, not playing for the ace pot.)
There were 43 playing open.

[lauranovice]

what day was the piece in the Star Telegram?

[my_hero]

It was Sunday's edition.

DQ almost split that pot with Dennie. He splashed out of the same basket that Dennie aced, used the same disc that Dennie did, skipped it the same way.....the only difference was.........................

This thread has slept for close to 2.5 years!


Yuck. I came down with the flu sometime saturday morning. I blame my sister, who brought it from South FL and gave it to both of my kids and my dad before she left :mad:. Now it's my turn. :confused:

Though i feel like total dung :mad:, you can bet that i'll find the energy to do the NO ACE at the Vet jiggly dance while y'all are playing this morning. Good luck trying to break that invisible forcefield for the ever elusive hole in 1! :p

One Sunday morning at Veterans Park.....summer of 1992.
1992 was the first year the Vet's ace pot ventured into four-digit territory. Mace Man eventually claimed the prize ($1,667.00) with a Viper ace on original hole 2, January 10, 1993.

[gregbrowning]

Nobody hit it today, so next week it starts at $1084.

[daltonseabolt]

Nice picture but i was only 1 years old

[my_hero]

My_Satan's_spawn will be joining me in the morning. Should be an interesting round to say the least. I think he and his mother need some time apart, albeit only a few hours. I thought she was going to kill him today. What's the ace pot sitting at? Somewhere around $1400? :eek:

[daltonseabolt]

no one hit it sunday

[my_hero]

Correct. It eluded us again.

I'd like to publicly thank Pepper, Chad Smith, and the "Big D.R." Danny Reeves for having more hope for Ryan not wrecking our rounds than i did. That little dude didn't make a peep nor move around when it was someone's turn to throw (other than mine). It was a complete shocker. He only made it through 11 holes though, holes 2-12. If you know The Vet then you know it was the hilliest part of the course. I had to call Mrs_Hero in for the rescue. Next time i'll have the off road jogger with us and he can ride for a few holes.

Best part about it....Pepper and i tied for the win. Who wudda thunk it? ;) The card with the kid is supposed to suck, not win. :D

[discgolfdog]

"Best part about it....Pepper and i tied for the win. Who wudda thunk it? The card with the kid is supposed to suck, not win."
Second place went to the fool running the mini getting no warm-up at all. :eek:

[gotcha]

What is the "most aced" hole on the course?

LOL. So the kid card takes first and second and the no warming up TD takes 3rd....just proves that the VET boys are just a bunch of hacks! Right Leyva? :D

[my_hero]

What is the "most aced" hole on the course?



Hole #15 b/c whether it's in the short or the long position it's not blind and is less than 230'.

I aced that hole Saturday and wrote hole 14 down and put April instead of march :p I would agree that it is the most aced. They had a kids party going on at the pavilion and a mom and kid walking by the tee pad and I yelled OH $h!T and about 15 little kids and there parents stop and look But it still felt good to here the chains when that Z flick went in the basket :D

[my_hero]

Nice ace! Now do it on Sunday and earn $1400!

Check out these sick dyes that a friend in KS has done for me. If anyone is interested in custom dyes, let me know and i'll hook you up. Now the question becomes; which one of these is going to earn me $1400?

Green = Vader esp surge
Orange = Batman esp force
Blue = Globe z-pred

[gotcha]

Nice dyes! Especially the Dark Knight... :cool:

[arlskipshot1]

Nice discs, Luke Skywalker. I am your father.

To address the question of most aced hole I'd like to point out that hole #6 ( old #14 ) has been here from the beginning. Even though the new #15 and the new #9 are catching up, I still think it's been aced more than any other hole, and since we hardly ever play it short anymore it probably will get passed.


P.S.
It has never been aced in the long position even though there are a few monster arms that can frighten it. I once stood at the box and watched Sam Grizzafi do a magnificent 360 and put an Aviar on a line drive that passed chain high about 2 ft. left. An awesome awesome throw.

[my_hero]

...and i've seen Dean Burton crash left side chains as we all watched the disc ricochet off to the left. Wow.

[Pogis]

I have gotten pole on long 6. Thats as close as I have gotten.

[24460]

I have splashed out twice on that basket in the long pin position. Both with the same disc. Beat in Star destroyer.

[cgflesner]

That was a sweet shot when you hit the tree one foot to the right of the chains. I thought that was an ace for sure! Yall leave that ace alone this sun when im at states. :(

[my_hero]

Yall leave that ace alone this sun when im at states.



Let's make a deal.
http://www.magneticmediafed.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/montyhall.jpg

If i hit it sunday I'll give you 20% of the ace pot as long as you give me 20% of your winnings from States.

Deal or no deal?

[my_hero]

Congrats to Jeremy Lockwood for knocking down #9 for $ 1,428. The disc he threw just so happened to be the same disc that he aced with in Crowley for another $ 1,400+!!! That disc is worth a lot of cash! Congrats!

Oh, almost forgot......the kid card won again. ;) :D

[okcacehole]

Nice Jeremy!!!...why find work if you can clean up 3K every month in ace pots :)

[arlskipshot1]

Put that one with the $1600+ that Shugart won there and all the smaller pots hit on #9, that hole has given up more than $4000.

[24460]

Time to make that hole a little longer.

[discgolfdog]

I agree. Hey all, what about a sleeve across the path behind the long position? It would play a bit like #13 long at Bear Creek. There's only so much we can do on that hole.

[my_hero]

<font color="red"> I agree. </font>



I agree. Hey all, what about a sleeve across the path behind the long position? It would play a bit like #13 long at Bear Creek. There's only so much we can do on that hole.


<font color="red"> The difference between the two holes/courses is that the trail you are proposing to throw across is heavily traveled at Veteran's. It would be a safety issue that the city probably wouldn't go for. Maybe the solution is to extend the hole longer and little more right from the previous short pin. There's some good land right behind that big sandy mound on the edge of the woods there.

Another difference is, at GV there's a risk/reward shot on 13. Take the risk of shooting through the sky hole the size of a hulahoop and you have a shot at birdie, otherwise skip a shot to the layup area and proceed from there. At the Vet, the sky's the limit, nobody would throw that skip shot. Everyone would <font color="black"> simply </font> bomb a hyzer over the *old long pin* and play tree lotto to your new green. Just food for thought. </font>

You have a point there jiggly-one. (so that's why you always wear a hat!). A new sleeve long right might be the way to go.

[my_hero]

I like fashionable hard hats....

Question becomes, can union lawyers save jobs?

[dryhistory]

why not just move it to the short pin every once in a while, you still got a risk reward with the creek behind the bucket, and you switch it up and give people a different shot, there is nothing wrong with having a birdiable hole, they dont all have to be monsters

[discgolfdog]

"Question becomes, can union lawyers save jobs?"
I guess we'll find out soon enough, my guess is they don't care.
D.T. I really don't like the short position on #9. If you throw the correct route there's no risk at all of the creek coming into play, only big rewards. The short has been hit for the ace more than the long. Last time the ace lasted about two weeks in the short before Pepper got it. It's been awhile so it probably does need to move until we can figure something out.

[discgolfdog]

Got an email from Martin, (that's rarely a good thing). Sunday April 20th holes 1, 2, and 3 will be closed because of earth day stuff. They will be using the south parking lot and the field for parking. I've asked permission to put some temp. baskets in the north field for our mini, and let us park in the north lot. More to come as I know.

[crusher]

I have aced hole 6 long with a Roc.

[my_hero]

Your nose is growing Craigy. LOL. J/K. It's a lefty hole anyways.
