The ADGA and their HUGE Ace Pots

[my_hero]

Most of you know that we, the body of the ADGA, voted in the $2 ace pot at the '03 club championships. Due to this, i believe that we will see some of those HUGE ace pots of yesteryear.

Currently(as of 12/14/03), the ADGA's Sunday ace pot is $500 with approx. $200 in the backup ace pot. Hopefully with the holiday season ending, warmer weather approaching, and some just plain poor golf, we'll be able to see some of those HUGE, yesteryear ADGA, and Z-Boaz-esque ace pots.

[dannyreeves]

Maybe I will have to make an appearance at the mini this Sunday. I think I have been to about 3 this year. :p

[my_hero]

Will someone please turn the wind-o-stat down? 10-20mph is bearable, yesterday's 30-40 was little bit on the ridiculous side.

[jasonc]

Nothing else like being able to get an EXTREME to hold an annie line is there???? :D

[willyc]

Just wanted to mention, that we are having a wolf game at high noon on Saturday at the Vet. We are welcoming back, our longtime wolfman...Randy Wimm!!! :cool:

[my_hero]

It sure was fun! It was about as old school, as old school gets. Players that participated:

Willy Casteneda
Terry Toolen
Claydog Brumit
Randy Wimm
John Maiuro
Tim Jendel
Greg Killam
Jason Killam
Kelly Hicks
Tracy Nations
Gary Shugart
Jerry Seabolt
Dalton Seabolt
Don Quattlebaum
Laura Quattlebaum

Sorry if I missed anyone.....everything became quite blurry after hole #12. (That's when Don Q pulled out the Wild Turkey....yee-haw!!!)

[dannyreeves]

Sounds like that was a blast. Who took the most money?

Just wanted to mention, that we are having a wolf game at high noon on Saturday at the Vet. We are welcoming back, our longtime wolfman...Randy Wimm!!! :cool:



WIMP!!!

he must be one of the "Haters" of the new board, since he hasnt posted since we switched over....

Wish I lived up there, I have read about WOLF, but never played it....

sounds like fun!

[my_hero]

LMAO!! Sugar won the most....he also drank the most TURKEY!!!

[dannyreeves]

anyone want to go to Tulsa this weekend?

[twoputtok]

Who wants to take a road trip to Tulsa for the weekend. Lots of golf and the new Copperhead Canyon course along wiht the new Bunker in Sand Springs. Pleanty of side bets and'/or skins. Very friendly town, we take care of dgers.

If your are interested, contact Kid Roc.

[dannyreeves]

lol

[frisbeeguy]

Now that must have been a /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif fun game of wolf!

Smack, I'm sure Mr. Wimm is just being his quiet, reserved self, just as he is during a friendly little game 'o wolf :D

[frisbeeguy]

oops, thats Schmack!

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

[my_hero]

LMAO@deezee! $580 + entries tomorrow morning at the Sunday mini!!!! Holes 15 and 16 must not have "ACE ME" written large enough for us to read :D

[discgolfdog]

Somewhere around $640+ going into next Sunday. :D

[dannyreeves]

16 is not an easy ace when it is in the long position.

Just curious, but since you guys dont cap at $599, are you fulfilling the legal/tax obligations, of giving the winner a 1099 form along with it?

I know thats why we cap at 500, and begin a second pot....

The taxman will be catching up with our sport in the very near future, I woudl bet.....especially, since we are coming out of the shadows.....

[jasonc]

It's up to them to claim it I guess, since I've never seen Toolen give out a 1099. We do cap at $500 and build a back-up to $250, then run the original pot to $750 and cap it again(which shouldn't be too long). After that we run the back-up to $500, then let the original go as high as it can get. I'll be moving some baskets short this week, so come out and take your shot at $600++++++ :eek: :eek:

[dannyreeves]

Many people make a lot more than $600 and don't claim it to the IRS. Mainly becuase how they are making it isn't exactly legal. ;)

[my_hero]

JC.

Actually, a third ace pot is capped at $250 before the big one grows. So we have one capped at 750, 500, and 250...then the 750 runs until....CHA-CHING!!!!!!

It sure was nice back in the day to have a $500 and a $250 acepot to shoot at after the $750+ was taken. I remember those days...................

Not to be a downer, but Schmack D. is correct in stating the legality and surfacing visability of our fun. This has been addressed for many moons and the decision is always to not decide on change. This gun may be loaded!!

[jasonc]

Thanks John, forgot about the third pot. It's been awhile since we even had the chance at building one!

[dannyreeves]

Did you say that you are building pot? Hmmmm....... ;)

Yeah, unfortunately Uncle Sam will find us sooner than we wish....

sucks to bring such a negative thing to light, but every now and themn, i have to be serious.... :o

[jasonc]

SSSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!! Don't tell anyone......and don't go behind 7's teepad either :D

[dannyreeves]

There are lots of places out there that are secret. :o

[jasonc]

Come out in the morning for the mini and take your shot at what should be $700 if we have a good turnout :eek:

[jasonc]

James McCormick hit hole #9 this morning for $700+++++. We'll start next Sunday shooting at $250. Oh yeah, it was a BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZ :D

[Yeti]

Great Ace James!!!!! Big Bucks. I got that one warming up for VPO. Got $5 from the World Champ--B Schultz and Women's Champ D Reading----Not $700 but still sweeet.

Thank you, Jay

Talk about bad DISC karma hitting one in warm ups.

If I was going to hit one in warm ups I would'nt mind having that kind of crowd hanging out with me.

That would still be a DISC to hang on the wall with two World Champs signatures on it. :)

[dannyreeves]

so, is the ace pot at $250 now?

[jasonc]

Yes, we had the backup pot so we don't have to start at zero.

[dannyreeves]

Probably a dumb question but is the mini going on this Sunday? Didn't know if it was cancelled due to Z-Boaz Am weekend.

I figured it would be.

[jasonc]

Yes there will still be a mini on Sunday. Probably shooting at around a $325 Ace pot.

[dannyreeves]

I'll be there. (maybe :D)

[jasonc]

Well once agin the Sunday ace pot is $550++++. But the real surprise is Wednesday's ace pot, after 2 weeks, starts tonight at $146 plus entries. Come take a shot at 18 ace runs tonight :D

[jasonc]

Wednesday's Ace pot will hit $300 tomorrow. My- hero may want to find a babysitter :D

[dannyreeves]

What is the ace starting at on Sunday?

[dannyreeves]

I heard JK is gonna play.

[my_hero]

Wednesday's Ace pot will hit $300 tomorrow. My- hero may want to find a babysitter



Hehehehe. I did have to find a babysitter because Grapevine's ace pot was at $470 last night and nobody hit it. Looks like i'll have to try again next week.

Was the Vet's wed night ace hit?

[jasonc]

No Ace last night.......Start next Wednesday with $401 :eek:

[dannyreeves]

Holy crap. Maybe we will have to cap the wed nite ace pot at $500. That is weird.

[jasonc]

Just need 50 players to do it!!! We've been averaging 55 or so, so we will probably cap it next Wednesday.......and yes it is weird :p

[dannyreeves]

Arlington golfers suck at getting aces. :D

Danny, I love your new name but its not quite accurate. Actually that would be my ex-wife and Ellen Degeneres. They have a lot more in common.

Guess I should've known something was up by the way she always admired Ellen. Hmmm. :)

[okcacehole]

stories I didn't need to know..brought to you by atwood...

I'll push you further on this next time in person :Datleast you recovered..I have a friend who hasn't..

Go get em Tiger...B Hand F Putr :D

[dannyreeves]

HA! Well, that double meaning only occured to me after I changed it. Kind of ironic.

[okcacehole]

Well jason...how does the wall look now?

Thanks for your continued and tireless support of this sport and our local courses...People like you keep it beautiful, clean and easier for all of us.

A late cinco demayo (sp?)...toast to you and Ginetta (sp?)

[dannyreeves]

Dude, that wall is SWEET!!!! Come see it Adam. :)

[jasonc]

Don't thank me for all the work that has been going on lately. DON Q is the man behind the ideas and all of the labor. Went out Saturday to lend a hand and about 12 people I have never even seen before showed up to help!!! Turns out Don's been bribing the casuals that he meets at the park with free discs for labor.....Brilliant :D Most of them that showed up weren't just there for a free disc though, they actually said they were glad to have the opportunity to help do something at the course. I was really impressed with the way Don organized everything and the amount of help he could get to come out, especially from "casuals", and I think it helped them feel more involved. The wall looks great around the long bucket but still lacks one more work day to get it complete, after that it's on to the short pin. HATS OFF TO DON Q FOR ALL OF HIS HARD WORK :D:D;)

[dannyreeves]

That wall is gonna hurt some people's drives and upshots when the pin is in the long. Should be interesting. :)

[jasonc]

That wall is gonna hurt some people's drives and upshots when the pin is in the long. Should be interesting. :)



Wait until the other on goes up down by the short pin!!! :eek:

[my_hero]

i hope the mountain bikers realize that a wall is there before they haul ***** down the hill.

[dannyreeves]

we have already talked about that one. on a really nice day, I am gonna take a 12 pack up there and chill out for a while. It won't feel good when one lands on his FACE in a CACTUS PATCH!!!!!!!!!! :D

[jasonc]

And check out the top of the wall........Q and Toolen had the idea to turn some of the rocks up and in(towards the direction the bikers would be coming in), they are not sharp enough to cut a tire or hurt anyone, but would definately taco a rim :D:D:D

[dannyreeves]

Now if we could just find a way to injure those Xeriscape people. :D

Oh yeah, and the freako noodle sword fighters! :D:D:D

[lauranovice]

The top of the walls are to each have rocks pointed upward to keep the bmx'ers off the hill. It is in cooperation with the Parks Director. The walls were erected to help stop erosion, while at the same time keeping the difficulty of the course.

[jasonc]

I don't know if it has ever happened before, but if 50 people show up tomorrow night we will have to cap the Ace at $500 and start building a backup pot!!!

[my_hero]

It has happened before, but it's been quite some time since then. Good Luck taking it.

Looks like Grapevine's ace pot will go over 500 as well. GV's ace starts at 470ish. Grapevine doesn't cap ace pots, instead they hold 20% of the pot to start the next week with. Meaning, if you ace, you take 80% of the pot.

[dannyreeves]

Veteran's and Bear Creek ace pots hold for another week! :cool:

[jasonc]

Sunday's Ace pot will be $750. Noone hit the Wednesday Ace either so we start at $489 next Wednesday!!!

[okcacehole]

Sunday at 9 or 10 - sorry..my bad for not knowing..but that is the other side of our world here

[dannyreeves]

10am start

[jasonc]

Will it go down tomorrow????????????? Stay tuned :D

[okcacehole]

and did it???

[jasonc]

It's still there!!! It will remain at $750 until we cap the backup. Come out next Sunday and take your shot at it :D

[Nelle 18131]

Paging Mary McGough!!!!!!! Where are you girl? Are you playing Tx10 in Wimberley. There are going to be 5 pro women!!

[jasonc]

The McGough's should be present in Wimberley this weekend, so don't sweat it Danielle. This week we will be sporting a $500 ACE POT for the Wednesday mini, unless we have less than 6 members show up......What are the odds of that. Someone please hit this Ace pot :D, running minis with 65++++ people isn't that much fun :eek:

[my_hero]

Terry and i were just talking about this $500 ace pot. It has NEVER been this high on a Wed night. We got really close last year, or the year before last, but that was $1 at a time. Things happen much quicker with this $2 ace pot!

We were also discussing how crazy it is that Veterans is getting 50-65 players each week, and Grapevine is getting 30-45 players each Wed night. That is 80-110 people golfing on Wed nights only 18 miles apart!!!! Of course, those 18 miles can take more than an hour in 5 o'clock traffic.

So, if you cant make VETERANS, dont forget about Grapevine. Come take a shot at 80% of $600ish.

Both parks take signups between 5:15 - 6:00.

Start promptly at 6:15!!!!!

[jasonc]

Well the Ace finally went down last night. James hit hole 15 for $500........At least we were able to get $81 in the backup for next Wednesday :D Sunday remains at $750, so you still have a chance for big $$$$$$ at the Vet.

[dannyreeves]

I thought Two-finger John hit it?

[my_hero]

James who? McCormick, Eagan?

Two-Finger John?

Congrats on whomever!

BTW, $620 and still growing at the VINE!!!!!!!! I almost got 2 yesterday....soooooooo close.....still doesn't count :(

[jasonc]

Yeah it was John....it's early and I still those 2 guys confused anyway. You never see one of them without the other. :confused:

[dannyreeves]

15 short with a 2-finger. That can't be too easy. hehe

[my_hero]

15 short with a 2-finger. That can't be too easy.



Actually, it is. I've never thrown anything but a two-finger on the Wed night 15 short pad. Plenty of room for a two-finger skip ace, or the two-finger hyzer ace. Great shot!

[dannyreeves]

15 short with a 2-finger. That can't be too easy.

What I meant to say is it can't be too easy for me and my 4th grader 2-finger. :)

[my_hero]

Isn't it about time you graduated from grade school? :D

Fo' Rizzle?

[dannyreeves]

One would think.

[my_hero]

Since Veteran's ace was taken, let's make sure that we play at 6pm on Wed night at GRAPEVINE....the ace STARTS at $620ish. Come take your shot at 80% of $680ish!

Signup between 5:15 - 6:00.

We start promptly at 6:15

[jasonc]

If you're not playing one of the many fine events going on come take your shot at $750. Sign-ups until 9:55 start no later than 10:15.

[space76]

Anybody hit the ace at the Vine yesterday?

[dannyreeves]

I heard something about a JV player acing hole 1 last night. Don't know who it was, though.

I am sure My-Hero will chime in soon.

[my_hero]

Well, a local kiddo hit hole #1 with a skip shot last night. It was worth 80% of $700, or $560!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was his 1st ace for cashola.

So, next week we'll be shooting at 80% of $140 + entries.

[okcacehole]

Must I ask what is the 80% deal?

do you just always play for 80% of the pot, so it leaves a nice reserve..????

Dig the idea if I have it right...please help this lowly DFW soul that still missed a BC mini

[discgolfdog]

Adam, You are correct. Even if the ace gets hit, there will always be something to shoot at the next week.

[jasonc]

As we have done every other holiday weekend the ADGA will be doing Team Golf on Monday May 30th. Sign-up until 9:45 Start should be around 10:30. This has always been a fun format so please come out and participate. Also there will be a workday this Saturday starting around 9:30....Thanks Don Q.

Thanks Jason, but just a few corrections. Monday is the 31st and we start seeding at 9:30 with a 10 am start for Team golf on Monday. This is match play by divisions. $5 per player Very fun format!

The work day starts at 10 am tomorrow and we need trucks and bodies to move rock for hole 7's erosion control. We are only going to move rock so it will not be an all day deal, but I would like to have enough rock to start some walls on 7 next week.

Everyone who makes it out for the work day will receive a disc of their choice out of the Work day box!

Sundays ace pot is $750 and we will be close to capping the second at $500! Wed night had 91 in the back up plus whatever we added to it on wed, so it will be 200+ next wed.

Toolen

[jasonc]

WTF when did you crawl out of your posting hole????? :D I always give people earlier times to show up and later start times.....That way when they show up late they're not that late. Then when we're running behind because of all the late sign-ups noone can complain because I stated 10:15 and not 10:00 ;)

Yeah WTF for sure! :cool:Somehow got the day off and looking to do something today! Wasn't dissing on you buddy! :D Just was trying to do the same thing of getting them out there ealier by the 9:30 seed time!

[jasonc]

Go play Golf!!!

YEa, My game could really use it. But with all these kids out from school :confused: :confused: I better do something with them today. We might go Putt Putt. That should cost me a pretty penny. Kinda hard to do stuff when everything is 5 times more than I am used too!!!!! /msgboard/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

[jasonc]

Just sell one of the cute ones off to cover expenses :eek: Or make Andrew work for Putt Putt for a day and earn some free golf :D

[my_hero]

The $750 lives on!

..............maybe next week.

[jasonc]

Was anybody even close yesterday????

[my_hero]

Rob 'All-American' Canadian and myself must have been really close on hole #4. Then again it's blind so who really knows.

[jasonc]

And the $750 survives yet another Sunday!!!!! I had to be really close on 4 today, but a cash ace or even one with witnesses still aludes me :( Come out Saturday and play the TX10 then take your shot at $750 Sunday morning. BTW...Ginetta and I are taking sign ups for the TX10 if anyone needs us to do so. See everyone Wednesday night :D

[jasonc]

Just a reminder to everyone coming out for TX10. Sunday's acepot is $750, we will be taking sign-ups for the mini until 9:55 AM. Hope to see evryone out there.

[jasonc]

Left most of the course short for Sunday's mini and the acepot survived yet another round. I'm moving a few buckets before Wednesday's mini so look before you throw :D I'll have Toolen announce which ones beforehand also. Next Sunday should reach the last cap on the backups so we can start building on that $750 :eek: :D

[okcacehole]

I would like to announce that the Saturday of June 26 was scheduled to be the McKinney Open as we did last year. This year the event will be located in Denton and called surprisingly the Denton Open.

Due to unknown (or planned) scheduling conflicts with the City of McKinney we can not use that course that weekend. And if you take a look at the Texas schedule you will see that is it for dates.

I will be requesting C-tier sanctioning and capping the field at around 90 players due to only having 1 course.

The City of Denton is very supportive and look forward to us being there. More news next week on that.

I expect to have all the entry info on Titledisc by the end of next week.

So once more...no McKinney Open this year. The event is now...

Denton Open
PDGA C-tier
Saturday, June 26

Thanks
Chris

[jasonc]

Come out in the morning for what should be a great day of golf. The weather here is beautiful right now and if the rain holds off you really couldn't ask for anything more....less mud maybe, but nothing more :D The ace is still at $750, so come take your shot at one very good round of golf....if you can hit the Ace that is ;)

[sandalman]

willy c gets the $750 ace on #4.

dunno though, we were on #5 and heard nary a chain.. just "it is in? ... hey, is it in? ..... oh yeah, it is.... woooohoooo"

then we saw those $150 splits being passed out after the round.... hmmmm... :D:D:D

[willyc]

Nothing like been on the "Right" card huh Pat? :)
We heard a ching sound but everybody thought that it had spitout. Wasn't sure until I was about 20 feet away from the basket that I was finally able to see my disc in it. It was a very good birthday present for me. (my birthday was Friday).

[jasonc]

Congrats Willy.....not ont the BDay but the ACE :D Or should we say congrats on seeing another Birthday :confused: Thankfully we have a $500 backup to shoot at next weekend.

[lauranovice]

Congrats, Willy, on the Ace and your birthday!

[discgolfdog]

Where's my $150 hit split? :D

[willyc]

Thanks Laura and Jason...Dog that's what you get for leaving early! You missed out on the $150 splits. :D

[seewhere]

congrats Willie. now you got more water socks??

[willyc]

Thanks Chris...and yes I do. Do you need some?

[seewhere]

yea there are a couple of folks here looking. let me get a rouhg idea how many pairs and I will get back with you. thanks

[jbitner]

Willie!!!! :D Nice job and way to sneak another B-day in. :cool:

[okcacehole]

Anything going on at the Vet on Monday for those who are off for the holiday?

[dannyreeves]

There is probably team golf.

[jasonc]

Team golf golf on Monday.....Seeding starts at 9:30 AM at the south pavillion by hole 1.

[jasonc]

Now I'm a Helix Master??? :confused: :D

[bslamoreaux]

How much is Team Golf?

[jasonc]

$5 a head and worth every pennie :D

[space76]

Is The mini tomorrow still on since its the 4th?

[jasonc]

Yes the Mini is still on....with a $500 Acepot thanks to the backup :D

[seewhere]

well???

[jasonc]

This Wednesday the Ace pot will crawl close to the $500 mark once again!!!! Sunday's Ace remains at $500 :D See everyone tomorrow.

[seewhere]

well was for some team golf info. little b*tch. and bring me some beer to Waco. :)

[jasonc]

Buy your own beer......Team Golf was won by the team of Charles Cox, Kenny Glaze, Jason Chamberlain, David Covalt, Laura Q, and Trish Dunston. Thanks to the other people on my team.....I couldn't remove my head from my arse long enough to do anything :confused:

[my_hero]

Wow, $450+, hmmmmm....i might need to make an appearance tomorrow evening. :D

I guess i better ask momma now.

[my_hero]

^^^ Not gonna happen ^^^

<<<< Wife needed to sleep, so <<<< stayed home.

vvv Might know if the ace was hit? vvv

[my_hero]

?

[lauranovice]

Barely, Keith Machen hit chains on 17. It didn't stay in, so the ace survives another week.
For anyone not going to Waco there is a work day on Saturday to prepare for the Fahrenheit Fling.

[jasonc]

Once again we have a $500 ACE pot on our little dinker course :D All of the pins are in SHORT tonight so now would definately be the time to take you're shot at it :p

[my_hero]

I think y'all should all sukk tonight so i can join you next Wed. night.

Please, pretty please.

[dannyreeves]

Why not join us tonight? ;)

[my_hero]

I close tonight. Can't make it to Vets from Lewisville in one hour during rush hour. Besides, i have a date with Pepper at GV!

[jasonc]

Well you can have another date with Pep(I know after that kiss you'll be beggin for another :D) because the Ace went down. 2 people split tonight, David Rose on #14 and Tom Langley on #17(my card so I got a little split action). Backup was already over $100 so even next weeks ace wouldn't be a bad thing :cool:

[my_hero]

Nice work!!! Splits are always nice.

Pepper won the date. Got me by a lick...... i mean stick. :confused:

:p

[my_hero]

:o

[jasonc]

We still have the backup left after Willy took down the $750 Ace pot, so come out and try and make 1 shot worth while :p

[dannyreeves]

It is 4am and I am just getting home. I hope I wake up in time to come hit me a $500 ace! :D

[my_hero]

You'll be to hung over to make an ace. Actually, you should have just stayed up another 2 hours and come to the Games O' Northern Mexico.

[dannyreeves]

You'll be to hung over to make an ace. Actually, you should have just stayed up another 2 hours and come to the Games O' Northern Mexico.



I am sure that would have been interesting! ;)

[dannyreeves]

F'ing Pepper aced hole 9 today! BOOOOOOM! I saw it the whole way. Perfect Roc shot straight at that mofo! Way to go bubba!

P.S.--I got $25 off it! :D

[seewhere]

so does that mean he is playing outlaws? what about you? who all is coming in from arlington?

[dannyreeves]

Ware, you have a PM.

[jasonc]

The last 2 Ace Pots on Wednesday night have been taken away by Kieth Maechen.......if he keeps this up he may be able to make a living at 220' holes :D:p. Sunday starts at $500, so if you're not going to play the BIGGEST B-TIER IN TEXAS(also known as THE OUTLAWS SINGLE SHOOTOUT ) in Round Rock, come on out and take a shot at it :D:D

[my_hero]

WTG Keith Maechen's!!!! I wonder if they were overhand aces :D

BTW, the ADGA has 2 champions of THE OUTLAWS SINGLE SHOOTOUT......Nolan in 2001, and myself in 2002. The ADGA loves Round Rock!

Unbelievable!!! He did it again. That's three (3) straight Wed. night ace pots for KM. I'm seriously not paying to get in the ace pot if that bloodsucker is there. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

[my_hero]

Are you serious? What 3 holes did he hit? Any repeats?

[okcacehole]

you know they were thumbers...haven't seen a backhand yet :D

[lauranovice]

In order, they were 15, 6, then 7. Has this ever happened in ADGA history? I've never heard of one person hitting so many back-to-back Wed night aces.

[my_hero]

No, never. It's a new record obviously. Will there be a fourth? LMAO!

[seewhere]

if it were a REAL course you would not be able to THUMB more than 1 hole :D much less 3 different ones

[okcacehole]

if it were a REAL course you would not be able to THUMB more than 1 hole :D much less 3 different ones



:confused: BearCreek is a great COURSE - minus the huge casual piles that contain disc thieves :(

[jasonc]

if it were a REAL course you would not be able to THUMB more than 1 hole :D much less 3 different ones



Short pads Seehorse.....you know the ones you hate :D

[discgolfdog]

Anybody hit the Wed. night ace pot last night? If not, are we doing a glow tournament Saturday night? /msgboard/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

[lauranovice]

no and yes
I think the glow tournament will be at 8:30 Saturday night.
I think there will also be a work day to get everything prerpared for VPO Pro Weekend at 10:00 Saturday morning.

[my_hero]

That's right.............between Z-Boaz and The Vet, there is over $2,300 ready to go home to the lucky soul than knows how to throw an ace or two.

Sunday morning at The Vet = $815 + entries
Sunday afternoon at The Z = $1,580 + entries

Tarrant county is where it's at!

[space76]

When is the Ice bowl going down? :confused:

[Nelle 18131]

Is Arlington sending any women down for the Texas Womens Championships? Or should I say how many women are you sending?

[jasonc]

I know that several of them have been discussing it........we'll keep you posted.

That's right.............between Z-Boaz and The Vet, there is over $2,300 ready to go home to the lucky soul than knows how to throw an ace or two.

Sunday morning at The Vet = $815 + entries
Sunday afternoon at The Z = $1,580 + entries

Tarrant county is where it's at!


WOW, another BIG Texas ace Pool.

[vinnie]

I guess them ace pots are STILL growing

[bschweberger]

Wish I could get a crack at that Big Ace Pool again.

[my_hero]

Well, if you come a week early, or stay a week late during the BIG SHOW, then you would have a shot at it.

I don't see Veteran's surviving much longer, there's always a few great runs there. Z-Boaz on the other hand, could easily get close to $3,000 again!!!!

Wish I could make the Big Show, but it is not monetarily feesible.

[my_hero]

It would be if you won all 4 events. :D

[bschweberger]

Yeah, but I cant guarnatee winning all 4. Even though it could be possible if I play well.

[my_hero]

The ace pot at the Vet is a staggering $950. I think it's "off limits" next week with the inagural Cedar Hill sanctioned event.

[jeterdawg]

What about the Z-Boaz one? I might have to play the mini's the weekend of the Waco TX 10, since that's probably the first weekend that the pots will be back since they're 'off-limits' during the Big Show.

[my_hero]

The Z-Boaz huge ace pot($1600ish) is off limits until all of the Big Show events are over.

As for Vet's ace pot, i'm not sure about Pro Z-Boaz weekend. I know we shot at the ace while the Am Z-Boaz was going on.

[sandalman]

terry told me that it the ace was off limits this sunday (cedar hill) but he didnt say anything about next weekend (big pro weekend) so i am assuming it is on.

[my_hero]

That's what i think too.

[J_TEE]

Does anyone up that way know Ken Ratliff. If so, is there a way to contact him?P.M. me Thanx

Everyone remember that Sunday's Ace Pot will be over $1000 at Veterans and Z Boaz Ace Pot wil be HUGE. Hope to see everyone out there!!

Toolen

[discgolfdog]

Shouldn't you be working Mr. Toolen?

Well yea, but every now and then I get a chance to sneak away. Check out the time!!! I am still here!!!! See everyone on Sunday.

[seewhere]

what the [*****] We are out of town at a tourney and you guys are playing for the ace??? :confused: posted by seewhere for my boys.. clayton, nolan, JD, kid roc, big hand, Ryan,mace and pepper

With the Big Show for three weeks and the Ice bowl last weekend, it is about time we get to shoot at the ace pots. I also started a new job that has me working Tuesday through Saturday, so you wont see me at many events this year.

[seewhere]

Hey shrimp boat capt no one was asking when you can play. :eek:

[my_hero]

$1,000+ at the Vet, and $1,600ish at the almighty Z.

Come get some!!!!!!

[sandalman]

yup! teh Vet was $1025 last week. with the good weather this weekend and no sanctioned events closeby, i'd be looking for 50+ players this sunday - that will take the pot well over

<font size=+10> <font color="green"> $1100 </font> </font>

I am taking it down Sunday :D

[my_hero]

Well then i want a %!

No problem, with everyone out of town we will probably be playing on the same card anyway :DWhich hole should I ace???

[sandalman]

14

[my_hero]

:D

[my_hero]

Z-Boaz was over 1,800 and the Vet's is closer to 1,100

Rain, rain STAY AWAY!!!!! Come again some other day.....like Monday.

Is Cedar Hill running any minis on the weekend?

Hey I am off of work on Monday......the rain can stay away until Tuesday!!! Do not know if I can play Z Boaz....still have a garage full of boxes to unload! I would like to park my car in there since I do have one. Hey it could rain tomorrow sine I have to work, but Lorch park is having a mini and would hate to see those front holes get even wetter.

Lorch Park in Cedar Hill has a Saturday mini at 2:30 pm

[crusher]

I sure do miss those huge ace pots!

Maybe if I can hook up with Eugene, we can have another "Valentine's" day ace!

[my_hero]

I sure do miss those huge ace pots!



I miss them Monday - Saturday. Be there shortly to try once again. It could be a $3,000 day!

[seewhere]

well????

[jasonc]

I know that the Vet pot survived, should know about ZBoaz soon.

[my_hero]

No aces at the Z either. I came close on 9 there, and even closer on 10 at the Vet, but came up empty handed.

[crusher]

C'mon Johnny, you can figure out who I am!

It's a long trip to make a pair of mini's for me!

[my_hero]

Craig, we need to talk. :D

[jasonc]

No ace at the Mighty Z today either. Let's hope both get hit soon so we don't have 100+++ people at the minis again :D

[my_hero]

New Totals.

The Vet's will be $ 1,250 plus entries on Sunday morning.

The Z's will be $ 1,950 plus entries on Sunday afternoon.





WOW! ;)

[frisbeeguy]

Sounds like it's time to renew the old ADGA membership!
I think I actually have a free weekend this weekend...yipee!

[jasonc]

Come on up, we'd be glad to see ya in DFW. Now I think I'll go move a few buckets :D:D

[sandalman]

geez... 38 degrees and steady heavy rain? WTF???

snow flurries in benbrook??? WTF???

sounds like a multiple ace day!!!

[dannyreeves]

brrrrr...........

[seewhere]

well anyone hit the LOTTO up there?? :D

[sandalman]

Veteran's lives! dont know about ZBoaz

[dannyreeves]

zboaz lives as well

[seewhere]

man you guys SUX!! :D good luck next week

[my_hero]

man you guys SUX!! :D good luck next week



Get your [*****] up here and help us get an ace!!!!!

[my_hero]

Hopefully these will go down soon. I'd like to sleep in one of these Sunday's! :D

$1300 at the Vet

$2000 at the Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[sandalman]

Veterans' acepot still growing...

[my_hero]

That's right, it's gone for a little while. Still $400 left in reserve at Z-Boaz. Nolan Grider takes $2050 minus 20% = $1650 on hole #18.

Vet's is still $1350.

Boom :DI had a nice split and had the pleasure to see it from the box... If I had not seen it with my own eyes I would say it was luck. Clayton and Nolen were looking at the hole he hit right before he threw the shot and it hit the perfect line, smashed then spun in the bucket :eek:

[my_hero]

I had a $100 split too. The only bad thing about him hitting the ace is i can't golf all day Sunday anymore. Mrs. Hero tightens the leash until it gets over $1,200.

Thank God Wed nights just started. :D

So as quiet as this thread is, I guess no one hit the Vet's ace pot?!?!?!?!?! Sounds good to me since I hit number 10 at Strawbale Field course at Cricle R2. World Doubles is a great place for an ace, too bad it doesn't pay more than a disc! So I am ready to hit that big ace on Sudnay!!

[lauranovice]

Congrats Terry. It seems you are on a roll with two aces within 4 days of each other.

[my_hero]

Are you sure you haven't.......dare i say it on a public message board.......shot your wad? :o




CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I have not shot it yet. I am saving that for Vet's on Sunday!!!!! :cool:

[my_hero]

:D:p

BTW, we talked Brenner into bringing out his basket for hole #2. I'll be darned if i didn't almost ace it. Clayton was on 3's tee when i threw, and said it went right over the top about 12 inches too high.

**** that was close. At least everyone saved it for me!!!!!! :D

Hey John,
My ace at world doubles was yet another old school QUALITY cyclone. I am going to run out of them if this keeps up!! :cool:

[my_hero]

Luckily for you, i've got several old school one's left. Nice work!!!!

You know somehow I knew you would say that!!! I will have to take a look at those!!! I found a 98 VPO Cyclone, but did not want to use it because of the stamp!! :cool:

[my_hero]

You know somehow I knew you would say that!!! I will have to take a look at those!!! I found a 98 VPO Cyclone, but did not want to use it because of the stamp!!



Here's a VERY partial list from memory:

(2) - 1994 Pro World's clones, port arthur, TX
1995 KC wide open clone
1996 VPO clone
several 1997 VPO black/gold clones
an @ssload of J-Bird clones from the mid 90's
.
.
.
.
and a lot more. My brain hurts. Drool away. :D

Are any of those J-Birds white??? That is what I want really. Check you stock tonight and let me know!!!! :cool:

Ha ha, I knew you guys couldn't hit the ace while I was at weatherford :p You bastards did steal a few of my own the hole stats though :(

Yea Chris we waited for you. But only so you can sign my disc when I hit the ace next sunday. :cool:

:o

[my_hero]

How much is it officiallly?

$1480ish? (with a 2nd pot capped at $500, and a 3rd at $250) :D

[okcacehole]

crazy!...time to send Toolen my membership again and show up

Does the ADGA offer a lifetime membership..?

[okcacehole]

d*mn your dancing belly...the tradgedy..the humanity :D:o:D

[my_hero]

LMAO. Thanks for the heads up. I received my DGWN on saturday and almost fell out of the chair when i read the article about the message board. Sounds like the half naked fat man jiggling his belly is an international superstar now! :D

BTW, I almost took that ace down. Due to the recent vandalism, hole #6 was in the short sleeve. I banged the pan hard enough to hear it still resonating when the next player teed off. :confused:

[jeterdawg]

Haven't gotten to that part of the article yet, I'll be sure to laugh loudly. I got pretty close to taking too...holes 2, 4, 5, and 9 were within 5 feet away. 5 could very well have hit it...you never know with those stupid blind holes! Did you win the mini with your -6? That must have been a decent payout with such a big open division...

What was the ace pot officially up to after today?

1570 plus entries for next week

[my_hero]

Yeppers..... -6 won. In fact, 2nd place was even(E). You should have stuck around, your +2 cashed. :D

I ended up cashing with my +3. 3 way split with the +3's that stuck around........

[jeterdawg]

Are you kidding?!?!? How much? I think I would have been 4th then? That sucks. What does the ADGA do with that kind of $? Keep it in the course fund? If I'd shot even I would have stayed, but +2 for open?!? I will say this though...I'll definitely play open from now on. I played a round before the mini since I don't get out much right now, and I was shooting -5 after hole 13. We kinda stopped playing after that one just trying crazy shots. I chunked a roller up 18, and it was settling and turning to the right when it hit some guy's bag leaving me with a 40 footer instead of a 10 footer! Not sure where the game went at mini time but it'll be back someday!

If you cashed and did not stick around, the money goes down the line to the next best scores until it is handed out. VERY rarely does the club not pay it out to someone. If that is the case, it would go to the club fund!

[bslamoreaux]

You know it was an off day if I cashed in open at The Vet. Of course Nolan, Pepper and many others that always whoop my butt were not there.... :D

I was the person trying to tee off on My-Hero's card that had to deal with the sound of the disc hitting pan in my head. That makes it very hard to focus...... Great shot John...

Brian

[my_hero]

Congrats on finding the cash in open Brian. It's always nice to play on the same card with you. What makes it so nice is knowing that someone on the card is stranger than myself! :DShall i tell the world about the "package" you received on Friday? You're one sick individual! :o:D

BTW, the more you play Open, or the more often you play with people that are a tad bit better, the faster your game will improve.

[bslamoreaux]

Shame on you for speaking of my "package"..... :o And you think I'm stranger than you? :confused:

I enjoyed playing that round as well. The part that gets me is that like I should have played better. But even then, I'd only have gotten a couple of strokes back. Most of the open players at Veterans are more than just a "tad bit" better than me.

I'll continue to play open as long as I feel I am competing. We will see how long that lasts....

Brian

[my_hero]

It should go well over $1600 in the morning! It hasn't been this high since 1998 when Sugar took a 1560+ ace down on hole 9.

The club will have Venoms and Drones tomorrow at the mini. Look for Jason or Terry.

[sandalman]

Jason Terry came up BIGBIGBIG for the mavs today!

[jasonc]

It looks like My-Hero read my mind :confused:..........I'll get with you later to finish out my order that you already started for me :D.

I guess since nobody is bragging, the ace pot is still intact?

$1721 is the ace pot plus entries for next week. Mike Kennedy hit hole 2 and splashed out in practice, but alas no ace!!!!!! We will not be shooting at the ace pot on May 22 for the Z to A doubles event on that weekend! Do you have a partner????

[my_hero]

Mike Kennedy hit hole 2 and splashed out in practice, but alas no ace!!!!!!



So sad to hear.............NOT! :D:o:D(i really do like Mr. Kennedy though.)


I bet 75+ golfers show up Sunday and it jumps $150. It's going down on Sunday!!!!!! I just hope it's me........or someone i have a split with. :DToo bad Daddy Mutha F---ing D hit an ace in Waco. Did he waste it, or was he just warming up for this one?

Funny thing about that John. I was getting ready to make a Mothers Day breakfast for Marlene. It is 7:00 am sunday morning and my phone rings. It is Ortega. He wants to know if we are shooting at the ace pot! Of Course, I tell him. He says he is thinking of bailing in Waco and heading back to Arlington for the mini. He said it was raining allot down there and he did not shoot to well on Saturday. Well thank goodness he did not quit! Or we wouldn't have an ace pot left. :cool:

[seewhere]

thanks to me for talking him into staying and I got NOTHING !! what a LOSER!!

That sounds like Ortega!!!!!! :eek:

[my_hero]

Would y'all just let me ace one hole please!!!!!!?

[lauranovice]

John, it's my turn, but I'll split it with ya'.
