Roc there is a product called Houdini and Ace Lock & Key could prob hook you up with that. They are the Locksmiths that re-keyed the locks for you guys. If Rusty can't get it I will bring some up in August. If you spray the locks then take them off and spray again let all the gummy stuff come out you will not have any problems. Some sprays will cause problems in the future and Houdini is the best stuff on the market when it comes to locks. If you guys have any problems with any lock issues that's what I do for a living so call me or PM me and I will get one of the local Locksmiths to help you guys out.

I need to get a hold of farnham does anyone know how?

vinnie · Jul 14 2008, 10:20 AM

mr powers would be who I asked

johnrock · Jul 14 2008, 12:38 PM

Thanks, Manuel. I'll ask them if they can get us some.

p-katt · Jul 23 2008, 11:43 AM

Hi guys. The evil side of DG has shown up. Any help to control would be greatly appreciated....spread the word.

There has been a rash of vandalism on the news recently at McAlilster Park (Legacy Play Village and Baseball Fields). The disc golf course now is part of the vandalism. We lost a basket, hole 14 at the far SW corner of the course, sometime over the weekend. The basket, I believe a Mach V, was removed from the pole base. I had locks located a few inches under the basket portion...thus the pole of the basket will have a hole in it a few inches under the basket portion. Also, I painted one of the 'spikes' on the basket orange (to point to the next tee). I'll put up $100 myself to get the basket back and to handle the theif. Disc golfers unite and control theft at all courses. Contact me with any leads (806-798-8381).

Also, the tee post for hole 12 pro was hit and damaged. I don't think these incedents would be related.

mrodjr66 · Jul 23 2008, 04:14 PM

Planning my sales trip to the area for Aug. , but need to know when the Top of Texas is being held. Thanks

johnrock · Jul 23 2008, 05:53 PM

Top of Texas Open will be Aug. 23 - 24. Stay tuned for more details.....

johnrock · Aug 14 2008, 05:10 PM

I hope you can make it Manuel, we always enjoy seeing you here! Bring as many others as you can, they won't be dissappointed.

I got some of the locks undone, the Parks and Rec. guys have some stuff called "Open and Shut" that worked really well. I'll try it on some others later this evening and see if they'll open.

Any requests on basket positions?

mrodjr66 · Aug 14 2008, 05:41 PM

I will be there for sure and I think Ken will be as well. They are driving in Thursday and he will be bringing a couple of guys who have not been to Amarillo before. We really push The Amarillo events because you guys do it right. This will be my 7th tournament including DisCrazy/TOTO and I have had too much fun each time. Can't wait to see you guys again - yall make my work week in Amarillo so much better.

Basket positions - ALL LONG

See yall next week

This pretty much says it all!

Jroc · Aug 15 2008, 01:52 PM

Yeah...Im sooo glad Misti and i have a place to stay in Amarillo so we can make every event they have. Disc Creek is probably my favorite course for a reason!!! This will be my 12th Amarillo tournament...by far the most I've played on a single course.

johnrock · Aug 18 2008, 12:50 PM

Plus it's pretty nice that Jess and Janie's house is right around the corner from Hole 1!

We've had a LOT of rain this past week so the course is really greening up and the creek is flowing fast. Dang, if it wasn't for a few poor-sport crybabies, we could ask the Parks Dept. to mow the fairways again like they did a few years ago and give everyone a real treat! Sadly though, those times will probably never happen again. Thanks a LOT looser!

mrodjr66 · Aug 18 2008, 02:03 PM

Will we be playing The Championship Course like DisCrazy?

johnrock · Aug 18 2008, 02:42 PM

Negative

This time of the year it would take a small army of volunteers to make that area playable, and our volunteer base is very small. I wish we could though.....

Jroc · Aug 22 2008, 11:56 AM

That was pretty sweet....you really felt like you were at a major championship event the way the course looked that year!!

johnrock · Aug 22 2008, 03:36 PM

Yep! For 3 years in a row it was truley one of the coolest things done at any disc golf course I have ever been to.

FrankWhite · Aug 27 2008, 09:14 AM

Had a great time. Wished I would have played a little better, but........ I certainly can't blame the weather! Great job young Thomas! It was nice meeting you Dustin and Karl. Very close all the way! Thanks Rock, Jerry and Misty, Steve and Kathy,Matt, and Jack Norrid for the GLOVE!

mrodjr66 · Aug 30 2008, 11:11 PM

Just want to say thanks to all the Discers in Amarillo. I really enjoyed the Top of Texas Open and also getting to hang out with you guys Wed and Thur playing the weekly mini events. I wish Amarillo was closer because Thompson Park is one of my favorite courses in Texas. The small changes really made the course that much more of a challange.

Anytime you guys are in Irving - DFW area look me up and we will disc all over DFW. Plenty of courses to choose from. See yall in Lubbock for Big Arms or Nov. during my next sales trip.

FrankWhite · Oct 31 2008, 10:03 AM

Tom Brown has new bag tags for sale! Keep practicing Fabian!

FrankWhite · Nov 16 2008, 04:32 PM

Congrats on your ACE on hole 3 Tom Tom. (Doubles Rnd. Nov. 16)

FrankWhite · Nov 28 2008, 06:33 PM

The Ice Bowl is coming Feb. 8th, 2009 at Thompson Park! Come help the Texas Panhandle Flying Disc Association raise food and $$$$ for the High Plains Food Bank! More details coming soon.....Everyone will get a free mini-disc and Free Lunch! * Please bring canned food *

johnrock · Dec 09 2008, 10:14 AM

ICE BOWL merchandise can be ordered! I've got the list in my truck, so when you're ready to order, find BIG WHITEY. Lots of good stuff this year and very good prices!

johnrock · Dec 31 2008, 09:56 AM

Anyone want to guess who???

Jroc · Jan 09 2009, 03:04 PM

Tom again?!?!

FrankWhite · Jan 09 2009, 06:18 PM

Was it Steve with the forehand delux shot? Or Jack with the glove?

johnrock · Jan 11 2009, 01:18 PM

Nope, not Steve. Not the glove, either. I haven't seen that aparatus in a while, just a passing fad

.

Tom G. hits AGAIN!!! And to show his sportsmanship, he left $40.00 in the pot so it won't have to start at ZERO.
