Area Minis

[JerryChesterson]

Do any of the local DFW area courses have weekend minis? If so which ones and at what times?

Some mostly up-to-date lists of the west side are available here:

Check with the corresponding course/club threads to be sure.

Best mini in DFW is at the Vet in arlington it has the best turnout it is at 10 on Sunday! I also like Crowley at ten on Saturday and Fritz park on Saturdays at 10 Zboaz still has a mini I think at 2 but I have never been.

I think I am going to change Crowley's Saturday morning mini from 10:00 to 12:00 NOON.

And the baskets are all in the shorts at the current time, and the ace pot is juicy.

As many of you know, last Saturday, June 20th, two baskets were stolen from Weatherford DGC.
At this time we only have 174.00 in our course fund due to the recent transfer of over two thousand dollars for cement teeboxes. We cannot afford the replacement costs at this time so instead of the normal mini on Saturday, July 4th, we will be running a fundraising mini.
This will be a singles event with the ace pot in effect, along with CTP's. We will try to have CTP's for all eighteen holes if possible, depending on sponsorship. I will tell you, we have a few autographed discs from Avery, Barry, etc.
It won't all be plastic either as we should have some nice swag throw in as well. The entry will be very reasonable although we haven't finalized that just yet.
The cement teeboxes should be in the ground by the end of July and we would like very much to have these two baskets replaced by that same time but we really need the disc golf community to come together and help us out this time.
I can't thank everyone enough for the early show of support and I hope everyone can make it to this event.
Entry fees and times will be announced soon.

Tentatively we are looking at a 4pm start time so as not to conflict with other local minis.
Also, we are looking at an entry fee of 20.00 for now but may lower it before the event.
There will be a max of two CTP's paid per person so as to spread the wealth around.
However if you hit three or four, you will have your choice of prizes.

I should've posted this a while ago but here is the update.
The two stolen baskets were replaced by the Weatherford Disc Golf Club.
The cement teeboxes have been in the ground for about a month and are really nice.
The course is undergoing a Oak tree removal as some of the trees had oak wilt and needed to be removed, that work is almost finished and a replanting will begin soon.
All baskets are currently in the long positions. The ace pot should be close to seven hundred dollars now.
The course fund is rebounding nicely, in fact we just sponsored the Discing For A Cure event at the Lake last weekend.
The minis are the same time as always and we'd love to have you so come on out.

I see on your event calander that your minis run all year long. Am from up north, but isn't it dark by 600 or 630 when these scheduled events are to take place? Will be in town later in month and trying to figure out where i'm throwing.

[karateputter]

Weekday minis are finishing in the dark so lights are needed. Historically, the evening minis most likely to be on during the winter are Crowley, Vet, and North Park. There could be other minis around town that also have a good night crowd though. It would be good to check with the Irving and Dallas clubs as well.

Tuesday doubles @ Lake park goes glow
Wed @ McKinney goes to glow doubles when the time changes and we normally play year round.
