"and all the WORLDS a stage..."

jmc2442 · Aug 07 2008, 01:32 PM

I wanted to give a formal GOOD LUCK to my fellow yinzers...

Kurt, Alanna, J Gary and Marcus, STRAIGHT REP IT!

I know I speak for all the PFDSers when I wish you the best of luck in Michigan!

Rex_Trimm · Aug 08 2008, 11:06 AM

Good luck guys. And drink some Bell's for me.

sandalbagger · Aug 11 2008, 07:02 PM

Good shooting so far everyone. Come on J Gary, I know you have a 1050 rated round in there to put you in the lead!! Jeep it up guys and have a blast. Wish I was there.

Thanks for the pump..we are having a great time -- myself, Marcus, Greg, Kurt, Alanna, and Curtis cruised an awesome Flymart last night. Bell's players' party tonite.

I played Victory park twice yesterday which is my favorite of the 4 course rotation I'll play in the tournament. By holding both Pro and Am worlds, the tournament organizers really had to use some sub worlds standard courses IMO -- like Coldbrook- and some temp courses that are a bit bland.

Rounds 2 and 3 today.

Jeff_LaG · Aug 12 2008, 09:52 AM

Victory is nice and groomed through a popular public park with some pretty water holes.

The jewel of the tournament however is the 9282' par 66 Timber Ridge course. The course is about the vertical size of the IUP College Lodge but with a few more open ski hill shots. The very best holes on the course however, like IUP, are the woods holes that play around the course. I played a practice round there on Saturday and the hot score of 55 yesterday is SICK!!! The front nine is a fairly straightforward par 30 but the back nine is a BEAST - it measures 5500' with a pro par of 36 just for the back nine holes alone!

Nice shooting Alanna. Looks like Marcus has some tough competition in his division!! And as for the courses, imagine - - - -Moraine Gold, MOraine Green, Knob Hill, Deer Lakes, Economy(18), and the finals at North Park which would inevitably draw a crowd.

That hypothetical course selection might work for Pro-only or Am only.....but it wouldn't be enough courses for both pro and am worlds combined. J Gary needs to get busy and build us more.....

Oooooh! I think this is when they will announce the winner of the 18-hole DGA basket raffle give-away! If I win, I'm pretty sure I'll have three Schenley Mach II's available for sale....

jmc2442 · Aug 12 2008, 02:12 PM

no you wont Jerry. that'll just be holes 19, 20, and 21 for a par 80 killer!

sandalbagger · Aug 12 2008, 03:24 PM

or you could just put those Schenley baskets on the driving range. 300ft, 400 ft and 500 ft. Pro/Am...oh boy. Now that's something I'm pretty sure we can't handle

Jeff_LaG · Aug 13 2008, 12:13 PM

Alanna shoots a 56 to move into a tie for 5th place! Way to go Pennsylvania gal!!!!

jmc2442 · Aug 13 2008, 09:44 PM

its still unofficial, however, Kurt told me with the 903 rated 3rd round Alanna has recorded her first ever 900+ round.

I believe Mr. Poole himself has made a personal best as well. 56 for round 2 is unofficially rated 1000. WERD SON!

have fun and keep at it yinz!

sandalbagger · Aug 14 2008, 09:34 AM

Think those ratings are a bit off as some ams played different courses. I know 2 days ago, that round was only listed as a 968. But if it was really 1000, then NICE SHOOTING........either way. Keep it up Alanna.

jmc2442 · Aug 14 2008, 11:22 AM

they are off.

kUrTp · Aug 15 2008, 12:15 PM

I'm finally done with Worlds...played last round this morning.

OK, enough about me...Alanna is playing really constant. Has to make up some shots to make the finals but anything can happen. But fifth is in her reach.

And yes those round rating in the Am field are not right.

sandalbagger · Aug 15 2008, 07:38 PM

Now this is an awesome group to play with tomorrow!!!

Jay Gobrecht
Rick Voakes
J. Gary Dropcho
Snapper Pierson

Disc golf Superteam right there.

Looks like it would be hard not to have fun in that group

kUrTp · Aug 21 2008, 09:40 AM

So how funny is this. One of Alanna co-workers was checking out her scores daily, printing them out, and posting them at her desk. Apparently the IT department was notified that this employee was wasting time on the PDGA's website, so they blocked it. Now no one from S & T Bank can access PDGA.com.

I thought it was funny...

proxy avoidance is pretty high up on the security list. I'd wager her work would block that site too.....
