Weeklies

[pterodactyl]

We play every Saturday @ 10 a.m. We usually go to Wed. Nites as soon as daylight saving's time hits, but the park doesn't stay open long enought. We will begin Wed. nite weeklies as soon as the park stays open til 7 next month. It will be 18 only, no extra holes due to time constraints. Until then, it's Stockton at 10 a.m. on Saturay. However, every 4th Saturday it's Fiddleneck @ New Hogan Dam. Every 4th Saturday. Every 4th Saturday...every 4th saturday.....can I say it enough times?

[ioneca]

March 24th it is. I will bring my new MACH LITE with my American Flag for an extra hole at Fiddleneck.

[Teemac]

Congratulations! Good job getting the DWs affiliated. I'm sending the Modesto ace pool up to the "fid" with Dave and Jennifer. I hope that lures a few more players for the weekly up there. I can't make it this Sat., but we will have our singles weekly the next day at 2pm. See you there.

[mr smOOOth]

You and your brother missed a good time T.
Congrats to Kenny and all the 'Jammers!

[Teemac]

How late is the park staying open on Wed. nights?

[pterodactyl]

Oak Grove is only open til 7 pm this month. Next month it goes to 8 I believe equalling more fun.

[Teemac]

Will it be doubles this Wed. and singles at the "Fid"? Also I didn't see anybody from Manteca signed up for the Master's Cup at Dela. :confused:

[pterodactyl]

1. Yes
2. Maybe
3. Look again!

[ioneca]

See ya tomorrow!! I need some ace $$ for my trip to Arizona this weekend.

[pterodactyl]

We are on WEDNESDAY nights now.

May 9th: We will play doubles and start at 5:15

May 16th: We will play singles and start at 5:30.

And of course we will always play Fiddleneck on the 4th Saturday of every month (check for holiday conflicts and schedule changes). These problems usually occur around Thxgiving, Christmas, and New Years.

Ace pot is around 180 points. KL out

[pterodactyl]

We will playing our weekly at 10 A.M. on the Fourth of July. It will be doubs.

[pterodactyl]

I will be bringing 50 hot dogs! :p Bring something to put on the barby if you are so inclined.

[Teemac]

How was the picnic? Are you having doubles or singles this Wednesday?

[ludboy]

Will Wednesday weeklies continue until daylight savings ends or?

[pterodactyl]

It's doubles tonight. We will be going to Saturdays in about 3 weeks. Tonight we start at 5:15. Next week we will have to start at 5:00 sharp. KL

[pterodactyl]

Note the time change for the weekly. We start at 4:30 on Wednesdays for the month of ROCtober. We will also begin Saturday weeklies this weekend @ 10ish. Hope you can make both. KL

[pterodactyl]

Last night was a scheduled doubles round, but we tried something different. Everyone played as "odd man" or "cali" for you non-Californians. Everybody dug it. And the scores weren't as low as I thought they might be. Zach Taylor finally played up to his potential and took the grand prize...sucka!

[pterodactyl]

Ace pot is 183.
Here's a schedule for the next 3 weeks:
Wednesday night: Singles @ 4:30
Saturday: At Hogan. Extra holes...singles with blind doubles. Probably extra holes. 10ish
Halloween: Singles: 3-somes. We will be playing 18 holes. 16-17, 6-7 without a mando, the haunted hole(only played once before...and aced incredibly), and haunted hole to 7. 4:30

This will be the last Wednesday weekly of the year :mad:!

[pterodactyl]

Tonight will be the last Wednesday weekly of the year.

Weekly moves to Saturday at 10ish. See ya at one of these.

[pterodactyl]

Hey Windjammers,
Get your booty out there on Saturdays @ 10. We've been having extremely weak turn-outs. Heck, I wasn't even there last Sat. :D

[pterodactyl]

This weekend will be doubles and the ace pot is 321 buckaroos. I won't be there, so somebody take over the regging for me. I'll be in Santa Maria at the NorCal vs SoCal Battle of the Bucket. We have to keep the trophy in NorCal!!!!

[ioneca]

KICK SOME SOCAL BUTT!!

[pterodactyl]

I'm gonna try. I never talk junk;it doesn't work for me.

[ioneca]

My bad. Win one for the "Gipper"! GOOD LUCK NORCAL!

[pterodactyl]

Ronald Reagan???? :confused:

[ludboy]

Rock on Nor Cal

Hey Kenny kick some socal bootie!GO NORCAL!!!David goodrun & Jennifer the putting machine

[Teemac]

Hey KL, I'm sure you guys did well in the "battle for the bucket", so let's hear about it. Also, since the fourth Saturday this month is the same day as the Fresno tourney, are you going to have a New Hogan monthly early, like this Saturday?

[pterodactyl]

Is Frizno the 26th? I'm not planning on going to Frizno, so we'll keep it the 4th Saturday. It will be doubles at The Fid.

[ioneca]

When is the monthly singles going to be so I can finish the trophy?

[pnkgtr]

Is Frizno the 26th? I'm not planning on going to Frizno, so we'll keep it the 4th Saturday.


What? No Fresno? You must be joking, oh man, you must be joking (Gang of Four). Can you name the song Kenny?

[Teemac]

Enough with all the questions Rich. I want to read about the NoCalSoCal challenge results. Don't get me wrong about the Frizno thing, I'm curious too. :confused:

[pterodactyl]

Ace pot is around 330. Course is still in the short. Get your discs out there today.

[pnkgtr]

A pic of Oak Grove makes Forbes magazine. http://www.forbes.com/2008/01/29/detroit...thisSpeed=30000 (http://www.forbes.com/2008/01/29/detroit-stockton-flint-biz-cz_kb_0130miserable_slide_3.html?thisSpeed=30000)

(this is not a commentary on Stockton, Modesto is also on the list)

[pterodactyl]

I'm glad I don't live in either of those places!

[pterodactyl]

There is a fishing derby going on this Saturday out at 8-mile. For our weekly, we are going to play the "loop" twice for 20 holes in doubles format. We will be staying away from the fishermen/women.
One good thing is that the course will be open to play at 6:30 in the morning so you can go out there early if you so choose.

[ioneca]

Holes 10-18?

[pterodactyl]

Holes 10-18 and 1.

[ioneca]

I forgot about hole 1 and a temp hole.

[pterodactyl]

I wasn't planning on putting on a temp hole, but my dga is in my truck already, so expect something to get us from hole #1 to #10.
In fact, we may add 3 or 4 more holes in the boy scout area and get rid of this ace pot I'm carrying around. Bring your baskets.

[pterodactyl]

Nobody hit the ace pot yesterday...again. The crowd did go wild when I announced that the ace pot was at 420!
I guess 23 holes and 25 players isn't enough to get rid of the ace even with all of the hole played aceable. I won't be there next Saturday due to the Skullmaster Disaster. Somebody else needs to run the weekly for me. Thanks

[ioneca]

Dang it! I just realized I left my orange & yellow Yin/Yang XS on Hole #4 at Stockton last Saturday. My name, phone # & PDGA # is on it but no phone calls. If anybody sees it let me know or kindly persuade the person that they have my disc. Thanks

[pterodactyl]

I found it. It's in my truck. :D

[ioneca]

AWESOME! Thanks Kenny. I'll see you at the Skullmaster.

[ioneca]

So is this weekly at THE FID going to have a Windjammer/Basket Hound GINORMOUS ACE POT? :eek:

[pterodactyl]

The Windjammer ace pot will be big, but Bob-O hit the Modesto ace pot on his last throw of the day on Sunday! $310!!! Dog...

[ioneca]

Is tomorrow's weekly going to be singles or doubles? Is there going to be extra holes? I am just anxious, I have not played at all this week due to back problems but I am ready for tomorrow.

[pterodactyl]

What's on the slate for today?

Doubles
Ace Pot: $551!!!
Extra holes: Double 7 and 9.

[pterodactyl]

Next Saturday: 585!!!!

[ioneca]

Well I did not win Saturday's weekly but I did win the MUTHA PUTTERS monthly on Sunday 3-2-08! I am KING for March 08 with the TROPHY and the exclusive "Mutha Putter" black mini. We are going to have to come up with another trophy for Stockton's weekly singles match. Is 3-8-08 going to be singles?

[pterodactyl]

Singles? Sure, why not. :D

[ioneca]

Looking forward to a fun day tomorrow. Today at the Grove was good, I played 3 rounds. I am glad to see the course has been changed. Should I bring my baskets Kenny?

[pterodactyl]

That was a crazy weekly. 36 players and nobody took home the 650 in ace pool money.

[ioneca]

Is the ace pot open for grabs this Wednesday?

[pterodactyl]

The ace pot is officially up for grabs starting tonight. Last time I checked is was @ $705!!!!

[pnkgtr]

Happy birthday Kenny.

[JohnLambert]

Just saw your name at the bottom of the PDGA birthday page, happy birthday man.

[pterodactyl]

Ace pot is up to 832 for this Wednesday. It looks like it will be some form of doubles until someone hits the ace. I don't have time to do all of the paperwork for handicaps before the course/park closes.

[mr smOOOth]

Sweet.

Happy belated B-Day Kenny!!!!

[LargeMarge]

poor kenny =[ its ok kenny we like doubles .... REAL DOUBLES oh happy old dude day btw =]

[Dgoodrun]

I think mabe I should fly back for the ace money. that's a nice ace pot!

[pterodactyl]

Save your $ on that airline ticket. I'm psyched that I don't have to run a freakin' tourney every week any more. Thank you, Meredith, for hitting that elusive '1'. Should be back to normal for us Windjammers out there this Wed.

[pterodactyl]

Thanks goes out to Steve Meredith for bringing the Sierra Nevada keg to our weekly last night. That was one interesting round.
The poker after the round at Krash's house was a blast too. Rory got lucky!!!

[ioneca]

So what does a Windjammer have to do to get back on the deltawindjammers.com site? Jim Reece wants to know to.

[ioneca]

Also Where are my MANNERS, CONGRATS Kenny on your 3rd place finish at Delavega. You definitely represented the Windjammers DGC. I was watching the scores live and was rooting you on Mr. Prez. C-Ya Wednesday.

[pterodactyl]

Thanks for the dap! I just contacted Wally's brother about the Delta Windjammer.com web site. I lost administrative access when the site went down. I've asked to get it back. Then I can add you guys to the roster.
If you want to post on there before your name shows up, you can log in as some obscure windjammer. Your password is password until you change it and a lot of the players that don't go to the site never changed their passwords. Just identify yourself in the message and all will be cool. KL

[ioneca]

It's late and I found out I have to donate my body to the 6th grade science camp kids by enjoying cold water in the dunk tank at precisely 3:00 pm at Howard Park, Ione 95640. So come on out and throw some softballs at my arse :D.

[pterodactyl]

How many times did you end up in the water?

[ioneca]

I lost count after 5 but it went on for 1 hour. It was a great weekend, we helped generate over $700. My fingers & toes are still wrinkled.

[pterodactyl]

Random tidbits:
It's doubles this Wednesday. Yoo hoo! I don't have to do a ton of paperwork to get ready for this one. The ace is over 200 smackers. I'm hoping to move 3,4,5,and 6. Getting flyer ready for Frying Pan 08. Fiddleneck is on Sat., May 24th. $10 doubles in Modesto for Memorial Day @ 9. Probably the only time Ray ever "dunked"!! See you discers Wed. KL

[pnkgtr]

Kenny, Have you heard why so few players are signed up for Auburn? Heat, crowded course, bad TD? I wanted to play but the TD says he only has 15 prepaid players. Sheesh.

[pterodactyl]

Since you would have had to send your money in last week to pre-reg, I'm guessing players decided it's too late and don't want to pay a late fee. I'm one of those.

[pterodactyl]

Perry and I totally dominated the competition last night to win the weekly doubles.

In other club news. The parks dept. has 5 or 6 of our old tee pads in their yard and were getting ready to bust them up. RJ got wind of this and contacted me about it. After the round last night RJ and I walked the course looking for some alternate areas for the lost tee pads. We picked our spots, but now have to wait for the big wigs to decide whether or not we can place them. It would be awesome for the course to get these additional tee pads in the ground.

[Teemac]

Nice to hear about your BDSM, but how was your round of disc golf? :D About those tee pads. Did you give any thought to enlarging some of the existing ones such as hole 3 and 9?

[pterodactyl]

Hole #3's pad doesn't need lengthened, it needs to be leveled. Not a priority for the new pads. We do plan to enlarge #4, however. We want one lengthwise across the back where the mud collects. Also, some others: 18 tee 100 feet west of old one. Throw between the 2 big trees. Makes it possible to lengthen 17. Another: 10 by the club sign. It makes the holes longer and is good for promotional advertisement. 9 further back and away from the lake for safety issues with fisherpeople.

There's no guarantee that it is going to happen, but if it does, they only want to do one per month due to lack of manpower. King's X, baby.

[ioneca]

I am sure you can muster up some man power via Wednesdays or Saturdays weekly. Just tell us when!

[LargeMarge]

See you all tomorow .... any idea what the format is ???

[pterodactyl]

Nothing going on in Stockton or Fiddleneck tomorrow. You must be talking Mo-Town.

[pterodactyl]

Jeremy and Bob-O had their own weekly out there today :o!

[pnkgtr]

They get chased away by villagers with torches when they try that in Modesto.

[LargeMarge]

OH MAN !!! you guys missed an awesome money round on saturday not a big turnout for stock-to but still fun .... i heard jeremy cole almost aced 13 !!! hit off the top he says ??? anywho ...........................

so i can only guess that the stockton weekly is only on wednesday now ???

[mr smOOOth]

Nice job, J.C.!

and thanks for not smashing us with that big truck of yours! :D

[pterodactyl]

.... i heard jeremy cole almost aced 13 !!! hit off the top he says ??? ...........................

the stockton weekly is only on wednesday now



Sounds like a tall tale to me. Kinda like Pecos Bill was. That hole is a virgin, though. That's as far as I know.

[pterodactyl]

Tee-Mac and Ray Birch took home all of the money Winds-day nite. Both of them shot -5 in the heavy wind. Not bad.

[ioneca]

I am on a roll, I won at Somerset today, Thursday Dbls. :D

[ioneca]

WOOHOO I am going to the WORLDS!!!

[pterodactyl]

Sweet! I'll see ya at the player's party!!!

[pterodactyl]

Speaking of the player's party. We will be partying with RJ's ace money this Wednesday. A keg of Sierra Nevada will be there and I'll be bbq'ing a few linguica, some tri-tip and some burgers :p...It's only going to be 110 degrees :cool:out there for the next few days...ouch, babe.
Don't forget the sunscreen. Ace pot: zero

[pterodactyl]

If you missed the Windjammer party yesterday, you missed out on some great livations. Thanks to everyone that contributed.

:cool:

[pnkgtr]

Kenny, I'm not going to fail you for your spelling, since the "B" and "V" are right next to one another and the tri-tip was cooked perfectly.

[steelyone]

Nice play from the MAD'ers on Wed Night...1st and 2nd Place....thanks for the fixins.....Had a good time.

[pterodactyl]

Kenny, I'm not going to fail you for your spelling, since the "B" and "V" are right next to one another and the tri-tip was cooked perfectly.



Right. I meant to say "contrivuted". Just don't ring that bell when I spell it incorrectly. :o

[pterodactyl]

Nice play from the MAD'ers on Wed Night...1st and 2nd Place....thanks for the fixins.....Had a good time.



I thought you were a Windjammer. :confused:

[steelyone]

Just wanted the SHIRT.....my allegience is with the MAD'rs..... :>

Sure wish Dave and Jen were still around.....

Miss those guys...

[ioneca]

I'll c-y'all Wednesday with my trophy from TAHOE! Tough tourney with Saturday's 2 rounds of 29 holes and Sunday with one 29 hole round. Finished with a respectable -5 overall.

[pterodactyl]

Just wanted the SHIRT



Wow! That's not gonna go over very well with the club members. It's your karma.

[pterodactyl]

I'll c-y'all Wednesday with my trophy from TAHOE! Tough tourney with Saturday's 2 rounds of 29 holes and Sunday with one 29 hole round. Finished with a respectable -5 overall.


Is that a 1st place trophy, Ray? Nice shootin'.

[ioneca]

YEP!!!

[ioneca]

And Mike Corbett REPRESENTED TOO!

[ioneca]

I somehow lost my yellow Worlds ROC at Stockton during doubles this week. Anybody let me know if you see it. Thanks

[steelyone]

Come a little early on Wed 08/27 we'll have some cold ones on ice.

Steve

[LargeMarge]

good job steve i guess you have been shooting good for a reason hmmmmmm to ACE !!!!! NICE

[pterodactyl]

We played a new hole Wed. nite and I like it a lot. 13 to 15. With 15 in the short it's a tough 3. It's well guarded. I definitely intend to use it for the next Frying Pan. We will be playing it for the next couple weeks. Not sure if anyone made a 3 on it last week.

Also, I have jury duty tomorrow in Stockburg. I will be at the course around 12 if everything works well at the courthouse. I don't think they'll choose me as a jurer. I'll be spinning around in my chair singing the intro to "Greatest American Hero" when they're interviewing me! :D

[Teemac]

I missed doubles last night. How many aces were there?

[pterodactyl]

You were smart not to be there.

[Teemac]

Are you saying someone hit the ace? :confused:

[pterodactyl]

No.

[pterodactyl]

This Wednesday will be the last 5 o'clock weekly. We will move to Saturday on ROCtober 11th. 10ish. We will also soon have a "new" bag-tag round. Keep posted. The tags will be bottle openers. Please keep your ring on it. :cool:
The cost will be $10 and all profits will benefit the club.

[pterodactyl]

Bag tags have been ordered and I will pick them up this weekend at the NorCal Finals from Mark Whittingslow. The following weekend we will have our bag tag distribution round. The new bag tags will be very useful. You won't have to use your Bic lighter anymore to open your "finely crafted" beers.

[ioneca]

MMMMmmmmmmmm BEER!

[LargeMarge]

not sure if this matters but motown is doing its ace race the weekend of the 17th =]

[pterodactyl]

That's a good point that needs to be taken under consideration. Large Marge, you never disappoint me! :)

[pterodactyl]

I have the new bag tags in my hot little hands and they are ready to be distributed, so if you want a low number be out there ready to take the #1 tag home...and then off to Frank's Halloween party. :cool:

Tags are $10...pass the word. KL

[pterodactyl]

Thank you to Mark Whittingslow @ Laser Engraving for making the bag tags for us Delta Windjammers.

[pnkgtr]

Does this mean I shouldn't expect any Stocktonians at the Ace Race? That's too bad.

[LargeMarge]

to bad ??? I SAY WEAK AND LAME

[LargeMarge]

wait i know why, they dont want the modesto crew showing up and taking all the good tags .... smart guy that pro granny

[ioneca]

Crap if I don't get any work this week I won't go any where.

[pterodactyl]

Does this mean I shouldn't expect any Stocktonians at the Ace Race? That's too bad.



Does this mean I should expect less Stoctonians at the weekly? As far as I know, Paul and Johnny Jagger are the only guys planning to play your event. Do I care? No

[pterodactyl]

to bad ??? I SAY WEAK AND LAME



As the president of a disc club I have to make decisions that not everyone agrees with. Jeremy, you should be glad that we, as disc golfers, have numerous options in which to choose from when deciding where to play each day.
You can get a tag later and challenge me any time you want. Just because you decide to not be in Stockton for the IPO is something I can't control. I couldn't get to OV when they had their distribution round. I certainly didn't call final9 and tell them they were lame for having it on that date. There are a lot of clubs and when you belong to more than one, you are going to run into scheduling binds. No worries, people. There will be plenty of "good" bag tags left.

[pnkgtr]

Don't pay any attention to Jeremiah. He's just twisting teabags. He's not going to be at the Ace Race either.

[Teemac]

Point - Counterpoint, Marge you ignorant slut. Nice retort K.L. I think maybe we should have one those good ole get down in the dirt disc slinging doin's. Maybe revive the Stockton/Modesto challenge. Maybe schedule it on one of the Saturdays at Hogan. Some time early next year maybe. Whataya say? :D

[LargeMarge]

Oh NO !!! Kenny dont be mad at me =[ i was joking im a kidder but nice email anywho ....

or as riko would say twisting teabags have fun everyone and i apologize in advance for firing kenny up for the tag match

[steelyone]

You coulda picked another date....and helped with promoting the Ace Race...but you chose not to...OK. The Windjammers and the Modesto Golfers have a long history of doing things together....from what I have observed...your kinda touchy about anything that is not prioritized around the Jammers...hey that's your call...why so sensitive though? I mentioned when I first got a Jammer Bag Tag that my ultimate loyalty laid with my fello Modesto Disc Golfers and you immediatly pounced...suggesting that "it's my karma" regarding other jammers and what they would think.......( as if we're in High School or sumthin.) whatever....I think your a great golfer and a pretty cool dude...cept the tude you express when defending the Jammers honor....carry on brother...and "thanks for the shirt". Nothin personal Kenny...just callin em like I see em.

[pnkgtr]

Does this mean I shouldn't expect any Stocktonians at the Ace Race? That's too bad.

I guess the only difference is that I'm $1250 out of pocket to run the Ace Race.

Last year only one or two Windjammers made it to the Ace Race. But when I buy 60 player's packages I need to draw from all over the area just to break even.

I'll live.

[pterodactyl]

First of all, I don't know anyone that was aware of you paying out-of-pocket to run your event. I presumed that Discraft put their product out there and you could return the unused. It doesn't matter.
After thinking about your $$ worries for a while I thought that you could just unload the rest by hosting another event in Stockton. You know these guys don't travel.
I talked up your event, but I can't make them go. Frank's party is the same weekend and I think that is going to keep people from travelling as well.

[pterodactyl]

Thank you for your comments, "Mr. Tee-Pad Info Man". T-PIM, for short! :D

[pterodactyl]

[QUOTE]
Oh NO !!! Kenny dont be mad at me [QUOTE]


Dude, I'm not even close to being mad. :cool:

[pnkgtr]

Kenny, I'm not trying to make this anyone else's problem but my own. It's just frustrating because of the crap that I have to deal with from the park troll. First, he called city sign enforcement because of the fliers, then he's telling people that I don't have a permit to have an event in the park and the city is shutting me down (this is untrue).

Because of all of these factors I've had to scratch the idea of feeding everyone (because I can't get a read on how many players I'll have).

If I get 25 more sign-ups I'll be fine. I'll have 10 packages left over and those will be easy to unload (but I can't send them to Discraft).

[pterodactyl]

Just trying to help you out a little.

[Teemac]

I think "troll" is a bit kind. :p

[ioneca]

The new tags ROCK Kenny. In the 2nd round Shay drove on #4, it took a huge anhyzer and parked his disc by the small gazebo due north of Hole #5's pad. There were people sitting there and this old guy walks around and picks up Shay's disc and throws it into the garbage can, then walks back around the bench and sat down. He did not even look around to see where it came from. I was laughing so hard my cheeks still hurt. It was hilarious!

[pnkgtr]

Thanks to the Windjammers (Paul, Ryan and Mike Corbett)that made the drive and played the Ace Race. You helped make it so I didn't lose money. I'm just about even.

[pterodactyl]

Back to our regularly scheduled thread:

Delta Windjammers: The show must go on!

[pterodactyl]

You coulda picked another date....and helped with promoting the Ace Race...but you chose not to...OK. The Windjammers and the Modesto Golfers have a long history of doing things together....from what I have observed...your kinda touchy about anything that is not prioritized around the Jammers...hey that's your call...why so sensitive though?

Nothin personal Kenny...just callin em like I see em.



Nothing personal? The whole message was personal.
Who are you to tell me how to run this club? I've been running this club since before you even started playing.
Now you can't wait to play golf with us again because of your failed attempt to organize a Sat doubles in Mo-town.

I'd be glad to give you back your membership fee and you can keep our shirt. Either you are a Windjammer or you aren't. From what I see and read, you're not.

[Teemac]

Hey Ptero - I won't be able to make the weekly tomorrow so I wondering if you could print some Fall Classic fliers or at least tell the boys up there how to get one. See you Sunday.

[ioneca]

So how was SOGGY Saturday?

[pterodactyl]

It didn't rain until we were finished. :cool:

[ioneca]

Lucky dogs. I played the 1st of 4 or 5 tourneys to be in Somerset. It rained all day except on our very last hole. I did well, I won the open pro division. I could only manage 5th at Schweitzer on Sunday.

[ioneca]

I got the 2008 Worlds DVD and I am very disappointed with it. The legends & senior Grannies got ten times more coverage than the grandmasters. Hosfeld, Greenwell & that 4th place guy got a little coverage but nothing with Kenny except his name mentioned for third place. They could have at least showed that great drive on the 9th hole. Anyway I am not very happy with the PDGA or whomever did this DVD.

[pterodactyl]

As LAME as it get.

[Teemac]

Well I won't be borrowing it any time soon. :(

[pterodactyl]

I'll be in Stockville today @ 3 for some bag-tag action if anyone is interested.
Jim Shultz will be there earlier. He's a GrandMaster transplant from Michigan with some mad disc skillz.(He won US Masters!)

[ioneca]

Gonna be at "The Grove" around noon today.

[ioneca]

I got to play 45 holes today, sure was quiet at Oak Grove. At least Bueano got to see me.

[pterodactyl]

I had a doctor's appt. or I would have been there by 3.
Do you mean Beno?

[Teemac]

Do you mean Sabrino Villareal?

[ioneca]

Wayne (drives a small black car, diabetic)

[pterodactyl]

Ahh, Wayne-o! Not to be confused :confused:with Bob-o or Beno!

[ioneca]

Sorry I screwed up his name. That 5th Sierra Nevada probably had kicked in while I was typing.

[pterodactyl]

No worries, matey! See ya out in Mo-town tomorrow.

[ioneca]

This Saturday I am running the show @ The Big Shaft hosted by The Amador Sandbagger Society. 8-4pm

[ioneca]

Well Friday's a no go at the Kennedy Mine. ACRA wants to charge $3.00 per person and $2.00 to park during the week and it's by reservation only.

[ioneca]

Anybody planning on spending the Friday night in Visalia? I could split a room and the drive.

[pterodactyl]

I have a fresh shipment of discs. It's mostly Innova, with some Flicks, Buzzzs, and Wasps. I have just about every type of plastic for the more common/sought after discs.
In champion I have the new Boss...same as the old Boss!
See ya in Stockton next Saturday.

[ioneca]

Singles, doubles?

[pterodactyl]

This coming Saturday will be singles. If I remember to send Little Skull the scores from the last couple of rounds, the handicaps will be updated. :cool:
I think mine slipped a bit! :mad:

[pterodactyl]

Johhny Blue Box shoots -10 to take 2nd place this weekend and also double dipped in the handicap, tied with Tony C for 1st in that area.
Mike Wallace brought a cool ctp of a Christmas stocking filled with a six pack of Sierra Nevada winter ale and a cool alien-eight hat. Check out Wally's work at www.harvestart.net (http://www.harvestart.net)

[pterodactyl]

It's doubles this week so we may see Russ Adkins out there. Ace pot is around 280. Come out and buy some discs and bag tags.

[ioneca]

I am minding the children @ Kennedy Mine today 10-4pm. Come & check it out.

[pterodactyl]

How many players showed up at the Kennedy Mine?

[ioneca]

3 newbies braved the cooold & wiiindy afternoon. Most weekends have been very busy.

[ioneca]

Since I have not made a weekly in a while is this Saturday, singles or doubles? I guess it does not matter I am going to show anyway. Played Hogan today, only Hole #1 had water all over it. Round one was wrma up/practice. 2nd round managed a -3 but Hole #17 I drove to the big rocks straight down the path, PIN HIGH BABY! I still had about 100 feet to the pin but I was PIN HIGH BABY! Sweet par 3 and saw Hogans resident deer population of a dozen near Hole #4's pad. I am still pumped up, Hogan just ROCKS!

[pterodactyl]

This weekend, Feb 21, will be singles. Hopefully Dave Sterrett (our statistician) will update the handicaps. If he doesn't show, then I will "eyeball" some changes for a few players.
The ace pot is currently 401 and I'm itchin' to nail me some chains. :cool:I also have a Ken Climo signed X-Caliber for the next ace 300 feet or longer in a weekly.
As soon as this ace pot is hit, I will be stepping down from running the weeklies. Somebody else (or a group of Windjammers) are going to have to step up and take over the weeklies.
I plan to stay as President until the Frying Pan is completed, then also step down from that position and stay on only as the Chief Financial Officer and disc salesperson. I've built up our coffers and would like to keep a keen eye on our money. More later...

[ioneca]

Headed to The Fid in the afternoon today & tomorrow. No fog, all blue sky! Very cool of you to sweeten the ace pot Kenny with "the other Kenny" signed disc.

[Teemac]

Hey Pter, I heard a rumor about the weekly at the Winterjam that I'm not going to repeat because that's how rumors get going. I had people ask me (prolly because of the purple shirt) when you were going to switch from Sat. to Wed. Any idea? :confused:

[pterodactyl]

The only way it will work is if we start at 4 o'clock, play doubles, I don't run it, and there is no carry-over for the ace. $5 aces.

[ioneca]

Is there going to be a club monthly @ "The Fid" after you leave Kenny? Or will the anchor stay in Stockton.

[pterodactyl]

There should be no changes in the monthly out at Fiddleneck. As far as I know, the anchor and the ace pot will be out there once a month.

[ioneca]

SWEEET!

[pterodactyl]

Yesterday there were 5 of us that played doubles at 4 pm. Dog, myself, Big Bob, Steve L and Zach from Modesto were there. There wasn't any paperwork done and we played $5 aces.
The course now closes at 7 pm.
We will still be continueing the Saturday weekly and huge ace pot.

[ioneca]

I was thinkin about Stockton as I was gitin my workout at Howard Park in Ione. I finally aced my own basket at 350' today with my custom dyed Rico Suave disc. I'll be staffing St Pats this weekend, be wishing you Windjammers & Basket Hounds prosperous tidings!!!

[pterodactyl]

New Windjammer Schedule

Today March 18: 4 pm in Stockton ($5 aces)
SAT. March 21: 10 am in Stockton (big ace pot)

Beginning in April, the Delta Windjammer weekly will officially move to Wednesday nights at 5:00 P.M. No more Saturday weeklies will be held once April arrives except for the 4th Saturday of every month at The Fid (ace pot included). KL

[ioneca]

So do we have a big ace pot to go for this Saturday at "The Fid"? I am heading out there today for some much needed therapy and to scout some new temporary holes :cool:

[pterodactyl]

From what I heard, we still have a huge ace pot for this weekend at The Fid. 500+ skins. And I'm sure Ray is going to bring the new basket he stole from me at the Ring Of Fire. :DDog.

[ioneca]

I even beat World Champion Valerie Jenkins :cool:. I am thinking I will make a long #12, about 111 paces past the current pin.

[ioneca]

How about a long left #3.

[pterodactyl]

Instead of double holes, what about some holes after hole 3 across the road? Let's scout it out.

[ioneca]

Cool, I'll be there at 8am scouting kemosabe.

[pterodactyl]

Excellent. Not sure if I will be there that early, but will try.

[pterodactyl]

I'm going to try something new this Wednesday. I am going to send out groups before everyone shows up. This will save tons of time. So if you can get there early, you can tee off early, as long as you have a group with at least one Windjammer in it.

[ioneca]

What a lucky APRIL FOOLS! Got to play with Josh Anthon and hit the "April Fools" blind draw doubles with Kenny Lee. Must have been the four leaf clover from Hogan! :D

[pterodactyl]

Nobody hits the 5.99 ace pot. I had a few and I heard of quite a few other ace "runs", but no cigar. Next Wednesday will be doubles.
Yesterday I sent one group out early to save time, but nobody else wanted to go out early. They just wanted to hang out in the parking lot and party: typical Windjammers!
We barely finished before dark, so get to the course on time so we can start at 5. Can't wait until someone hits this ace pot because my stint as weekly TD will be over when it happens :D:cool::p! Get a new monkey!

[ioneca]

Krash said last week he wanted to be that monkey. I plan on cracking that ace pot egg today!!!

[pterodactyl]

Krash is a monkey...a stage monkey!(moderators: this is not a dig on Krash, his business is called Stage Monkeys).

[Teemac]

Don't break that egg for a couple weeks. I like Kenny being the pteramonkeydactyl?

[ioneca]

I cracked that egg to early. I aced #5 in the short during some warm up before the round and Josh Anthon aced it in the long right after Russ moved it. It's safe until next week.

[pterodactyl]

That is too funny. I just missed 5 during the round.

Only 27 freaks showed up last night for our weekly. Josh Anthon and Josh Sappenfield were here for the fun. I haven't seen Sapp since he got the last ace in our weekly over 4 months ago. Someone please put me out of my misery. I have become soured, jaded, and sarcastic running the show for the last 200 or so weeklies. I need a permanent break from it. It's too much like my job that I do all day. I just can't listen to any more questions about when we are going to start or if it's singles or doubles. I can't listen to my phone ring any more. It's probably a player telling me to hold the weekly up for them because they are going to be late. Help me!!

Ace is around 650 if anyone wants to join us next Wednesday. Please sign in before 5 and bring the correct change unless you want to put another nail in my coffin.

[pterodactyl]

33 discers made their appearances last night. Josh Anthon hits #5 with his first throw of the round. On his last 4 shots on this 295 foot hole, Josh hit chains once, basket once, and aced it twice. This hole will now be named Anthon #5. But it didn't stop there. Ryan also aces #5 for his first big money ace ever. They ended up sharing the 690 ace pool bucks so ending my mega-year reign of running the weekly. The weekly box has been officially passed off. Still not sure who's running it next week, but I think it's Krash. I'm free! :cool:

[sfgfan]

Thanks Kenny for running the show for this long, especially with us yahoo's who love to hang out and distract the weeklies from ever getting started. Had to post though, cause that was far from my first ace ever. I think its number 10, might have to retire that one!!!

[ioneca]

Thanks Kenny for your HUGE birdie on Hole #4 to keep ZEEE #1 tag, I want a rematch ! Congrats Ryan on his "Take my $$ from #2 in Ca. Hole #5 named after U Josh Anthon". I am glad I got to see both of your ACES!!

[sfgfan]

Hey thank you much Ray... Thanks again Kenny for running the show as long as you did, all of us yahoos' really appreciate it. By the way though not the first ace for me, I think it was 9 or 10. It was the first weekly ace though which I am happy to split that pot with such a great guy as Anton :)

[ioneca]

I might head out to Hogan today.

[ioneca]

Had to work today @ Play It Again Sports, Jackson till 5pm. Who crushed Stockton today?

[pterodactyl]

Lil Skull and I shot a -13, RJ and Brett shot a -11, and I don't know who took 3rd. Krash ran the show and it went smoothly except for some yahoos argueing about some stupid thing. Krash was all ready to quit already!! :D

I ran one right by #4 throwing an anhyzer around the left side of the big oak...quazy!! It felt great to play the round and not think about the payout or anything. :cool:

[ioneca]

Glad things went well, wish I could have been there. Thursday doubles at Somerset was good, My partner and I took 2nd with a -8.

[Teemac]

Scores and Krash dealing with yahoos is all very interesting, but what I want to know is: what kind of beer did Rhino bring? :confused:

[pterodactyl]

Sierra Nevada ESB
Widmer Wheat

There was almost some left. :p

[pterodactyl]

The wind howled and the discs flew last night. There was a 4-way tie for first in the scratch division. Myself, Ryan, RJ, and crippled(his words, not mine) Bob shot -3 to share the prize money (13.50 ea.). Steve LeRoy took the HC division and the top $. Gil took home the ctp towel.
These weeklies sure are fun now that I'm not running them!! Krash is doing a helluva job in that regard. Waytogo brotha!

[ioneca]

SWEEEET! I was Uncle Ray baby sitting my 5yr & 1yr old nieces! I am giving them stacks of minis to play with. Sunday gonna go play Scwietzer @ 10am then Rocklin after some barbecueing. CHEERS!

[Teemac]

Seems like the message board needs some spark. How about a report on Wednesday's double round. Anyone? Anyone?

[pterodactyl]

Last night, on the corner of I-5 and 8-mile road, two warrior doubles teams went toe-to-toe in what can only be called an epic battle of the ages. Lardog and Modesto Zach took on the formidable foes of Steve LeRoy and The Pterodactyl. It was a battle not unlike the skirmish that took place in the Illiad with Hector and Achilles. Only this time there was no victor. Both teams shot -11's in heavy winds, trading birdies with an outstanding display of shot-making. $18 per man were the spoils.

[ioneca]

I am in a battle myself with some dang poison oak that I caught after trodding around Molly Joyce Park laying out a new DISC GOLF COURSE in Amador County, a future permanent course on public land. I have never had it and my ultimate goal is to NEVER GET IT AGAIN, poison oak SUCKS!!

[pterodactyl]

When I was driving home Wednesday night, I realized that I hadn't picked up my *wraith that I threw on the last hole. So after driving 5 miles down I-5, I turned around and went back to the park. The gates were still open, so I drove in. The fly fishermen were still there, but the park was officially closed. As I drove to hole 9, Chris the caretaker was following me. I had to persuade her to let me go get my disc. After she realized it was me, it was all cool and I retrieved my baby and I didn't even get any poison oak!!!

[ioneca]

Doooohhhhh!!!

[ioneca]

Well did you sweep up the Motherlode #3 Grandmaster?

[pterodactyl]

See Motherlode post.

[ioneca]

Dang, must have been a good battle.

[pterodactyl]

Billy had me by 3 with 4 to play. I birdied 10, 11, and 12 to get the margin down to one with one hole to play. Hole 13 was playing, I would say, the toughest out of all of the holes. 400 feet and hardly any fairway. I rolled one to within 50 feet and Billy threw a sidearm to about 75. He layed up. I had a 50 foot stradle against a big tree and had to throw over a branch. I hit the pan....game over...I lose, but not before Billy almost peed his pants from the drama. I played probably 1000-rated golf for the weekend, but it wasn't enough. It's probably the best I've played without winning.

[pterodactyl]

With 21 players standing around and nobody to run the weekly, Lardog took charge and collected the $ and ran the dern thing. With a strong Delta Windjammer breeze ploughing through the oaks, only one sole competitor was able to break par. Your's truely, with a -4, took home the big prize. Three others finished tied for 2nd at even. No aces were hit so now it's over a hunny.
Next week is doubles and it looks like RJ, Tony, and Anthony are going to step up and run the weekly for a while. Way to go boys and thank you Krash for doing it for the last few.

[ioneca]

Good luck in Santa Cruz Kenny!

[pterodactyl]

I needed good luck at DeLa, but didn't get any. Thursday night I started coming down with a bug/fever. I was playing well on Friday anyway until my disc got into a wood pile on 19. After I threw my putt, I went to step down from the pile, the log rocked, and I was airborn. As I fell, flesh scraped from my shin, my forarm, elbow and tricep area. I spun in mid-air to avoid crushing my ribs, but landed on my back on a log. My spine was bruised and my game went to...
I kept playing though, but just didn't have my usual game. It was just one of those nightmare weekends and it couldn't have happened at a worse time at the best tourney in CA.
Currently, my cervical and lumbar spine are causing some major discomfort, my body is all scabbed up and I'm sick of sticking to the sheets. I'm not too ill anymore except for a cough, my ego is bruised, but I still have my pride and somehow cashed.
I still had fun hanging with the best players in the world...:)

[ioneca]

I was wondering what had happened to ya following the 2nd days scores. You obviously battled through everything to cash. Hope you heal fast for this Saturday.

[pterodactyl]

I had blood dripping from my elbow and mosquitos on me. They didn't even have to bite me. They were sucking up the pools of blood. Very weird.

[Teemac]

I love a gory story! Dela is tough enough without sickness and injury. See you at the Fid I hope.

[pterodactyl]

Good thing I brought some karma(free beer) last night. Hooking up with Wally for doubles didn't hurt either as he and I shot a -11 for a 3 shot margin over 3 other teams. Wally played better than I've seen him play in a while. Way to go www.harvestart.com

The Fid it will be this Saturday for me. See you all there with visions of anchors dancing in your heads.

[ioneca]

Here's Finnon Lake info
$10 ($2 to club, $1 to ace pot, $7 singles payback)
Park at the Dam, meet close by @ 9am, tee off 9:30am.
Hwy 50 to Hwy 49 North (left off 50), Turn right on Hwy 193 (to Georgetown), Turn right on Rock Creek Rd (maybe 1 mile on right after crossing American River), stay on Rock Creek Rd till you come to Finnon Lake on left hand side (maybe 10 miles).

[pterodactyl]

Santa Cruz's monthly is next weekend, the 6th. I made a mistake. FL sounds like a cool golf experience, except for the full blooming poison oak and the cost to park. I may just stay home and get a new puppy. :)

[ioneca]

I'll tell y'all about it when I get back.

[ioneca]

Finnon Lake is a really fun but challenging course. The course is a Par 64 with 9 par 3's, 8 par 4's and 1 par 5. I managed a 65. I made some mistakes on some holes which cost me some strokes, I should have shot an easy -4. There were three divisions and 14 players, an amateur div., a masters div., and an open div. (which I played in). Bill Kohler took us with a -6 in the open div., Mike Bagner -3, myself and Tahoe Joe with a +1. Skull Brown, Mitch Carbone, John Lipnisky, George Kimberline and one other guy played masters, I have no idea how they finished. I have copies of their scorecards if anybody wants to know what par is on the course since they do not have tee signs yet. The course is pretty easy to navigate but playing with a local would be a big help, look for orange flags and streamers.

[pterodactyl]

Tony C. Majin has taken over the weekly for the present time and is doing a bang-up job. He put up with 25+ players last night for singles.

Capt Sapp took 1st in gross with a -4. I took 2nd with a -3 by bogeying 2 of the last 3 holes. :( A bunch of other blokes shot -2 to share minimal cash.

Michigan Brett aced the short fire pit hole for 200+ simolians. dog! It was his own basket.

Next Wed. will be doubles.

[pterodactyl]

Only 11 players braved the 100+ temperatures last evening for a quick round of 20 holes.

Dog and I were very hot too, shooting a -14 and winning by 4. Tony C took home the ctp mini from the Winterjam. This is the first time in quite a while that there have been zero Modesto players (Dog doesn't count) here for the weekly.

[Teemac]

Sixteen golfers showed up for doubles last night. There was a mix of Stockto's and Modesto's. Usually I eschew the doubles format, but Demarcus gave me a free ride so I went. I drew Ray for a partner and together we shot -11 to take first cash. Dog and Russ tied Wally and (I can't remember) with tens. Nice weather in the eighties with slight wind. Tony C. is learning quickly how fun it is to run the weekly.

[pterodactyl]

I'm ready for a raucous round of dubs tonight at 8-mile.

[ioneca]

And what happened? Any tidbits on my Hogan post?

[pterodactyl]

Scrappy-Doo Scrappenfield and partner with a -14 take the cake.

[pterodactyl]

If anyone wants to go to Merced with me tomorrow, give me a call. KL

[pterodactyl]

Tons of disc golfers from Modesto to Sacto(Q) were there last night with the ace creeping up toward 400 bones. The weather was hot and there was not a breeze to be felt. Sounds like a recipe for low scores.
There was a ctp prize on hole 2, but I can't say what it was because that would incriminate me. Let's just say that it was something very unusual.
When the smoke cleared, RJ and I had -11's, tied for 1st with Ryan close behind with a -9. I think Krash and Steve LeRoy shot -8's.

As for the ace and the Ken Climo autographed disc, Michael Wallace took care of those. He ace #5 in the short with his old school roc with the DeLaVeaga picture on it.
When he came to collect his autographed disc, I had made a fake autographed disc on a shark that had been run over on the pavement. He didn't even know the difference until I gave him the real one. Like TBS: very funny!

[Teemac]

I think it Sapp had an -8 also. If only I hadn't stuffed that roller into the planter.......... .................

[pterodactyl]

Today is doubles out at 8-mile.
Tomorrow is NFL!!!!

[pterodactyl]

Last night at 8-mile: Michael Wallace bought beer for his contituents last night in response to his ace last week. That was cool. A little Sierra Nevada and some lesser beers were served cold out of his ice chest.

Lardog and Sapp took the top honors with a -17 over a 21 hole layout. Russ A and I had a -15 for 2nd place money.

Johnny Blue took home the 10 scratchers for his ctp on hole 9 on 9/9/09.

Oh ya, Wallace hit another ace with his *wraith on hole 14!!!!! Don't think he'll be buying too much beer with his $65 winnings. Maybe a case of water is in the cards.

[pterodactyl]

Please have the correct change ready for Tony C.!! And get your sharpie ready to sign Wally's disc!!

[pterodactyl]

A bunch of freaks gathered for some disc golf Windjammer-style. It was singles night and there weren't any ladies.
Capt. Snappenfield took low honors with a -10, followed by -9 by ____________(can't remember the bagger) and -8's by Steve LR and myself. I took home a whopping $2. Weirdly enough, no aces were hit.

Thanks to Matt from Mass. for dropping by and playing a round with us. Hope you had fun.

Rumor mill: San Francisco's ace pot is @ $900!!!

Good luck, Sapp, at the gold pan. Take down Anthon and win a $50 bounty from the Delta Windjammers!!

[pterodactyl]

What happened out there last night? I had to go to a meeting for work.

[ioneca]

Tony C needs to post. Don't know who took $$$, it was not me with my -1 nor Russ at -3 or Meredeath at -1. Anthon showed and was not happy about his -10 handicap. Russ wants to play doubles only from now on to draw more club members to play. Saturday weeklies are just around the corner.

[pterodactyl]

Anthon shot a -12 and Sapp had a -7 from what I hear.

I can't believe Anthon would cry about his handicap(it is what it is)...or can I? Come on, Josh! You need to run a weekly or two.

Next week is doubles anyway, Russ.

Anyone want to hit up the Santa Cruz monthly tomorrow? Let me know. KL

[pterodactyl]

Ray and I will be there. Come join us. If you are late, you can find us. KL

[pterodactyl]

The last Wed. nite weekly came to an end for this year with RJ and Ryan raking in all of the money. They shot a -16 with RJ chipping in with an ace on hole #14.

Saturday weeklies will now begin this weekend...and yes, we know there is an ace race in Modesto...we made the announcement.

[Teemac]

Thanks for Ace Race announcement. I'm wondering if Ryan will show up again this year.

[pterodactyl]

3 hardy souls showed up at 8-mile this saturday. Even with the enticement of RJ's ace beer, more couldn't make it for a variety of reasons.
Tony, Ryan, and Goldie probably played a speed round.

[pterodactyl]

I'm looking forward to playing disc tomorrow in Stockton. I'll be bringing at least one extra basket.

[pterodactyl]

Rhino and I got lucky enough to team up for doubles and shoot a -12 for 21 holes to win the big prize.
Rhino also won the ctp (free disc of choice) for his 2nd shot on the par 4, hole 21.
11 Windjammers braved the excellent weather.
I went home and became increasingly p-o'd by the non-stellar performance of my Nittany Lions.
Screw Ohio State!

[steelyone]

Another one of your favorite teams kicked some serious butt this week.....nice win KL. Joe Pa can't win em all.

[pterodactyl]

The Penn State Packers/Colts

[pterodactyl]

I'm not sure if he's done this before, but Craig took us all down this weekend.
I had 3 bogeys and took second, tied with RJ and Danny Corbett(i think).
No aces were reported.

[Teemac]

I heard you guys had a weekly on Saturdays.

[pterodactyl]

This is not official, but with the time change there will be a doubles round this Wed. at 4 p.m. in Stockton. The ace pot will not be in effect, but we will play mandatory NorCal ace rules. Weeklies are still on Saturdays until the closing time changes at the park.

[pterodactyl]

Look for T.C. out at the course this Thursday. He's in town for the St. Patties.

[pterodactyl]

This is not official, but with the time change there will be a doubles round this Wed. at 4 p.m. in Stockton. The ace pot will not be in effect, but we will play mandatory NorCal ace rules. Weeklies are still on Saturdays until the closing time changes at the park.

Rob and I are doubles partners. I called it!

[pterodactyl]

You guys better kick some bootie at DeLa. Especially Bunches, whose borderline player rating kept him in Intermediate. Don't let that beach lifestyle get the best of you. Where's Krash??
