Club Minis

[gordonmk]

Oh, and our fundraiser discs for Waterloo are in. They will be for sale at the mini for $20 and they look great!

A picture is on the club's website, but I'm afraid I don't know how to post it here . Could someone else please do this? Lou?

[gordonmk]

Oh... this is not the actual disc, but it is the color stamp that is on the discs. They are Elite Z Supercolor Buzzes.

Full Color

posting for lou who would be posting this for Gordon

Pretty cool, I can't tell for sure, but I think the writing along the side says "Mr. Olse, get to work on finishing Manor." or maybe "Pick me, Mister Tasker. Pick me."

Is it 2014 yet?

[maverick]

Is it 2014 yet?

I think it's 2014 days and counting...

[rolo14]

Sweet, that's like spring 2012!

[LouMoreno]

16 players last night.

1 Jon P / Yankee Mike 41
2 Micah / Anthony 42
3 Alex / Chuck 43
3 Leon / Chris 43

The masses voted and next week the format will be random draw doubles with 9 holes alternate and 9 holes worst shot. Those guys are psycho.

Oh yeah, I drew Gordon and then I was the one that forgot how to putt. Message board kharma kicked me in the nads. We finished at 47.

[gordonmk]

Actually, I'm pretty sure the group voted for 9 holes best shot and 9 holes worst shot. Should be quite interesting.

A full round of alternating shot was my sick idea

Hey, maybe if more holes last night had been worst shot, Lou and I might have won. We birdied 2 of the three holes, and nearly birdied the third.

[alirette]

That would be correct. Nine holes of best shot and nine of worst shot.

Ummm, yeah, I think 9 holes of alt shot mixed with 9 of worst shot is a bit excessive!!!!! That would really reward the most balanced team! I like how the format is changing from week to week...it actually makes the south side interesting!

[LouMoreno]

"...looks like I'm about 15 feet......you're 12 feet? Ok, we'll have to take mine..."

There's still plenty of 2s on the south side, even in worst shot.

Who's gonna get the worst shot ace on #9?

[LouMoreno]

We had clear skies and muddy boxes for yesterday's mini.

Jon P (cali) - 45
Micah / Lou - 47
Anthony / Dan - 47
There was a pair of 49s and a pair of 50s also.

Next week we're doing 1-disc random draw doubles. It'll be best shot the whole way through but each player will have only 1 disc for the entire round.

[gordonmk]

very cool format for next week Lou!

[jparmley]

Next week we're doing 1-disc random draw doubles. It'll be best shot the whole way through but each player will have only 1 disc for the entire round.

There's going to be a lot of disc retrieving going on with this format. We should start earlier than normal....

[jparmley]

Let's try and get started earlier this week...I hate finishing in the dark!!!! Signup until 5pm (this way we can actually tee off about 5:15 and get finished while there's some sunlight left). Whacha think?

[LouMoreno]

Same as last week, Jon. Sign up 5-5:25. Draw at 5:25 and tee at 5:30. It should play quicker without playing worst shot for half the round.

[LouMoreno]

Look for the Waterloo Ranch Minis this winter.

[jparmley]

What am I going to do on Thursdays now?! Please let us know when the Wimberly minis will start. I know it's kinda of short notice, but you should have a Wimberly mini the weekend before Texas Teams (Nov 11-12th). You would have a bunch of people show up to play the courses before teams....just think of the fundraising possiblities!

[LouMoreno]

It's a good idea but the LSS is in Twin Parks that weekend.

[james_mccaine]

Is it just me, or is Mike getting just a little bit "happier" each week. He's the one on the right, Right?

[gordonmk]

Just a reminder that this Sunday, December 3rd is the club’s first Winter Ranch Mini of the season: Circle R in Wimberley

The mini will be 2 rounds of singles, all divisions

Sign Up 8:30 – 9:15 am
Tee Off 9:30 am

We’ll play each course once, with a lunch break between the rounds.

Because we are including the new 9-holes, we’ll need to start right on time in the morning, so don’t be late in getting out there.

Also, Patty Justice will be making and selling lunch that day. $5 for a sandwich and chips (and maybe some soup or something hot – not sure about that just yet). And if you remember last year, you’ll know that Patty makes a mean sandwich Just sign up and pay for lunch at the same time you sign up for the mini. She may have some extras for those who don’t order in the morning, but if so it will be first come first served.

Entry Fee
$13 per person – All Recreational & Intermediate
$18 per person – All Advanced & Pro

Acepot $2 (optional fee - ctp at the end of the day if no one hits an ace)



Green’s Fee $5 per person – All Divisions
