John--is there a tourney this saturday at the grange?

It was scheduled for Pratt park but because of flooding, it has been moved to the Grange.

Thanks Chris.
I'll be there.

ron, we will tee off at 10:30 so you and bs can get an extra half hour of sleep. /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif

John, Leave the Smurf alone.. You know you're only young once! Go on and stay out late Firday nite RT. BS Party on!

I will...I like to party Nude too...That way I can show off my MOJO!

Hey John, Tone Tone is right. Give the smurf boy a break. Not becuse he is young, though, but because he is only a week and a half away from traveling along way to feed the purse (and hopefully my wallet in a little round by round betting) up here in NE.

Looking forward to seeing you Ronnie.

How is the snow? Starting to think about my property search again.

hopefully he is going up there to qualify for usdgc.

snow is finally almost gone here, how about up there terry? how many inches for the supertour?

As of Saturday, when I was a the course helping to shovel the tee pads, there is a foot or so of snow with a few inches of icy crust. Jason (the td) has had people working hard to get the courses ready and they will be in great condition for the event. Why not come on up?

loriella charity challenge is why not, i would like to see the courses up there, just not in winter, a different date would make more sense imo.

Bryan is actually going to NY this weekend so I will be at the grange solo, hopefully paint free, and probably on time.

Looking forward to the Supertour Terry and I'm always willing to make side bets. Bring it on /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif

Ron, speaking of bringing things, don't forget the blue Hero.

Don't worry--the blue smurf will bring the blue hero.

do you have spiders/rocs to trade?

John
sent my pre-restration for loriella and sherando off monday. i think you should have it (loriella) either today or tomorrow. do not know how long it takes to get to stephen city

Ronny Smurf -

Forget Terry. Leave the blue hero here in VA where it belongs. I've got any type of roc you want as well as a few other unmentionables - like a preemie MTA-ready lynx I heard you were looking for...

Sorry Terry,

- Dave

jimmy, i got it today.

it takes 2 hrs or so to get to sherando from richmond area (95 to 17 to 66 to 522 to 277), 1 1/2 from here.

Ronnie, Dave probably needs that Valk more than I do so if you want to deal with him feel free. H/E I have/will get the spider and two rocs you requested if it doesn't work out.
Dave, I'll remember you said "Forget Terry" just about the time you need some frames;-)

Hey Dave...
That bag is sweet!!! I love the gold and black...it is so ghetto bling bling!
Thanks for taking the time to talk with me extensively about the purchase...I really appreciate it.

I will try to make one of these upcoming tourneys, and will try to bring some of my MOJO bros from NC...will any of them fill up, or can we just wake up and decide to get rollin' the day of?

Dave,
That would have been sweet if I knew you had a lynx about a week ago. You're right, i've probably been trying to track down a lynx for about a year. I just sent a check to Discovering the World to buy one and probably spent a little too much for one. I already basically made a deal with Terry awhile go, so i'm going to stick with that. Plus, next weekend terry will be handing me money so why not make it a few discs to go along with that too.

thanks though.

steve- sherando will definitely fill, bluemont will probably fill (only 45 spots), loriella may fill but probably not until day of (currently 25 paid). will k will be coming to loriella i know.

Master Ron-

Terry said it was ok. He's got a stash. And think, now you can have two lynx (is that lynxi?) for the price of one!

Imagine showing up to VA States with a preemie lynx and a backup - just in case you throw the first one too far... You would be the baddest.

-Dave

Ron, as Dave said, i did say it was okay if you want to go that way.
Dave, what Ron needs is two heavy rocs and a CE spider. If you can match that and Mr. Turner likes your plastic, there will be no hard feelings on this end. H/E Dave, I do not understand your needing another hero valk. I throw mine because it naturally goes right for me. As a leftie, all of your plastic naturally goes right already!

Hey Ron,

I thought that VA States banned use of the Lynx for MTA a couple years ago?? If you need lynx, you should talk to Timber - I'm pretty sure he has some (not positive about the premi's though). I've got 2 myself - and they are the proto star stamp - 138, and 144 nice colors /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif

craiger-you're right they did ban the use of the lynx last year and it is still not allowed for this year. i'm going to world disc games in santa cruz this summer (july 6-13) and i plan on using it there for both mta and trc. well, i guess i plan on using it as soon as i figure out how. i've always thrown fastbacks in the past, but i think i could crank a lynx up there a good ways so i would like to work on that.

dave-if you want to trade i'll be at the grange on saturday...

otherwise terry, i'll see you the following weekend .

Here's how the lynx works:

1. Throw it really hard up into the air
2. Run fast - like you've got Gainesburgers in your pocket and there's a hungry collie behind you
3. Watch it rocket back down to earth about 30 yards away
4. Shake your fists and jump up and down
5. replace your divot
6. Correct "angle" of throw and repeat

If you do get close enough, don't even think about catching it. It could seriously break your fingers!

How can I give that up for a turnover disc? Give it to Terry.

Hi guys, besides a fastback, what other discs can be used for mta? I keep breaking my fastbacks.

Who cares about that MTA crap? This is a disc golf website.

Chris, have you looked at this message board lately? There's plenty of things more out of place than an MTA discussion.

colleen-i've seen people use ultimate discs, but you are going to get the best flight and most hang time out of a fastback.

That is true Ronnie but if one message boarder jumps off of a cliff......

I'm right behind him.

Back to disc golf--are there any tournaments planned for that course down in Charlottesville? I haven't made it down there yet, but heard good things about it.

Chris, I have missed your cutting honesty during my tournament hiatus. Look forward to more of both this year. First Edge league April 9th?

As far as scattering the subject-- I will ramble on to the calling of Spring which reminds me that the great Virginia State weekend will be here soon (April 12-13) in Fred'Vegas. Always more fun than serious (golf) to be had, until I try to make a MTA catch. Anyway, thanks, Ron for your answer.

Ron:
Things are plugging away slowly but surely at the C'ville course. Not as fast as we would have liked, but the collars for the back nine holes are being installed this weekend. The theory is that with those in place, the front nine baskets could be used for the back nine in the meantime so that those holes may be played. I think Mike Bonday imagines a scenario of having the baskets on the front for a while, then on the back.

But that will only work for local informal play. Mike and I and J. Biscoe have talked about a sanctioned tournament at Walnut Creek, but I don't think any dates have been set because of the lack of the remaining nine baskets. We had a non-sanctioned tournament back in October using private borrowed portables for the back.

In any event, to answer your question directly, Walnut Creek is scheduled on the Golden Horseshoe Monthly series later in the year - Sept. or Oct. I think. Biscoe has the dates on that.

Sounds good,I will have to get down there sometime.

Maybe for the informal tourney there--a portion of the entry fee could go to the basket fund for the course. They did this at Pratt, and while it probably wasn't that much money---I'm sure every little bit would help.

sunday's weather report for loriella charity challenge looks great- temps in the 60's.

course has dried out nicely, sketchy tees have been worked, some given the grange carpet treatment. two groovy new long tees have been added (basically 2 and 13 switched). hole 1's long tee will regrettably be unplayable due to the mess left by the crew installing the new playground.
the keyhole will be in play for round 1 on hole 2.

still some spots available as virginians are generally not conditioned to preregister as of yet.

John, Have you received the pre-registration for Scott Knapp, Melissa "Moe" Knapp, and Bobby Cummings yet? Just curious
Scott-

John,
Melissa was wondering if there were any pro women pre-regitered?
Scott-

scott- 1. got them yesterday. 2. not as of now (except melissa). currently 4 adv and 2 int.

colleen? you coming?

John, I would but have a local (7th annual) St. Patty tournament to run in Richmond on Sunday. Sorry to miss your event. The weather should bring everyone out. Enjoy

Colleen, where is my invitation? I guess I'll have to go to Loriella.

You are too funny. Are you 40 yet? Happy Birthday Month!!!

John,
Is the tourny gonna fill? We got a straggler that might come up with us?
Scott-

hey scott,
i do think it will fill, but not until sunday. i have 30 or so spots remaining. at this point i am putting people who contact me on a list which is good until 9:15 sunday. slide me the name and i'll put them on.

scott- when are you gonig up to VA?
will

Will,
I gotta work on saturday night until at least 8 pm. So we are gonna drive up that night and get a room somewhere. We probably wont get up there until 1 or 2 in the morning though.
You thinkin about going?
If we dont have a full ride maybe we can pick you up on the way up. Let me know.
Scott

John,
The name is Jeremy Lee. I will let you know by tommorow though if he is coming for sure or not.
Scott-

John,
I spoke with Jeremy Lee this morning. He is definitly gonna go with us so put his name on the list. Thanks.
Scott-

Weather for Sunday is looking like rain for Tidewater. What's the word for Spotsylvania County?

Swampy

I was in Fredericksburg a few days ago. I was pretty nice, alittle wet in the low laying areas. If you want to see swampy- come to calvert = north of D.C. or Baltimore. It's a mess up here! VA was looking great!

Rob, I was pretty nice too, but quit picking on Calvert it's fine now, in excellent shape and not very wet.

I would like to let every disc golfer know that any time there is a tournament in the richmond and fredricksburg area that i would be more than glade to open my house to them. i live in a very quite small town of beaverdam. 30 min. from richmond and about 40 min from f'burg. i can get to gillies in about 40 min and the grange in 30. loriella is about 45 min. and dorey in about 45. i have a 3 bed room house set in the middle of 4 acers. basket in the back yard for putting games. my e-mail address is [email protected] just send me an e-mail and i will give directions.

yesterdays results below. $650 was raised for the Fredericksburg Area Food Bank. weather was only slightly wet as the rain held off, temps were in the 50's.

What is that Trapasso guy thinking these days? Always shooting the hot 1st round and the only player that can beat him is Brian Skinner. I'm a little scared. Congrats to my buddies Gualdoni and Stanley for getting onto the payout list. It proves that at least some part of my constant chatter can help others.

And then there was Wayne. Last year a ten/circle 22 and this year he got a deuce. Now there is a comeback.

You did not beat me .You didnt play in my division

Your training is going well grasszillllla. If you are lucky, you'll be saying that a lot this year.

thanks john for putting on a first class tournament. course was in awesome shape! see you at sherando!

Thanks John for all your efforts. Old Dominion Disc Golf is very fortunate to have you!

Is there going to be any Pro Women at Sherando?
Moe Knapp-

I am looking for info on the Newport News Spring Pro/Am. Tee time, Cost, Where to send pre-registration, etc.
Scott Knapp

moe- when i spoke to jeff last week rachel mansir was the only one registered. jeff can be reached at [email protected]

scott- email jon roy at [email protected]

nice to meet you guys last weekend.

john

Are we going to consider giving the Knapps an honorary Va. citizenry like NC did for me.

You should have a honorary citizenship in every state

Robzilla,
It was cool to finally meet you this weekend. I dont get to play as many events as Moe so sometimes it takes a while to meet everyone. We will be at Sherando this weekend see ya there.
Scott "Moe's Husband" Knapp

John,
Thanks for the info
Scott-

Chris,
The Knapps would be honored if our neighbors to the north accepted us as honorary citizens. See yall at Sherando.
Scott Knapp

I forgot to mention the qualification procedure. You have to get your name on the series trophy.

And have a minimum 5-acre tobacco alottment.

Speaking of VA Disc Golf, my quest has resumed with a very promising 56 acres in Lexington. Will know more next week.

Terry, there is a house on my street with about 40 acres for sale. Somewhere in the $600-$800K range. Why don't you check it out?

2 reasons: 1) 600-800K
2) YOUR street;-)

Seriously, I am looking for something in the under disc golf represented middle of the state and I am looking for property without a house. If anybody knows of anything..

wanted to say hello to eveyone and thank jon for everything and that sweet ching basket

jon i never got a disc or shirt as a players package , since i got my first win id like a shirt if u can make that happen , if not no worries. ill be at sherando
alreedy registered!

Hey is there any room for four boys from Columbus at this tournament? Is it full? Just woundering before we head that way /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif Thanks

Sherando? You had better call 1st. It is the 1st event of the yearly ODDS series and it is expected to fill.

sherando is officially full at 100 players. if you have not already secured a spot you are SOL.

keith- get with me sunday, i will be there during lunch only.

terry- the harrisonburg area may be gaining a course or 2. lexington is a nice town- when school is out.

Blow Wind Blow!!! DD

DD, someone left the wind machine at home this weekend. I think 15 or 20mph was about the strongest winds we had this weekend. It was sad. Brian Skinner won by 4 or 5. He is on fire. JG and Gangloff tied for 2nd.

i would like to thank jeff and all of his fellow folks for putting on a first class tournament. my first visit to sherando to go along with my first ACE ever (#12). i will never forget it and will see you all next year!

Chris - Give us more that that!

i was told about a VA State event happening some time in april at pratt park. it is not a PDGA event, but more or less a frisbee outing( disc golf, ultimate, etc.). i would like to get more info on this......date of the event, is it at pratt, etc. you can e-mail me at [email protected]
thanks

No one ever said anything about ultimate.

PP, what do you need to know?

Maybe Craig can help you with scores. Here is about all I know and I am probably wrong.
Open
Skinner -11 -6 = -17
JG &amp; Craig -13

Old
Chris Hysell -7 -5 = -12
Mark Lynch -6 -2 = -8
Mitch Hoeppner -5
Clark Putnam -9 5 = -4

Adv.
Brad Smith -3?
Would not have cashed in open

Am
Andrew Kramer

Craig picked on me for playing Masters but other Open players thanked me because they got more money.

I was the only bogey free player

Jimmy Stanley aced #12 for $88.

20 holes, 100 players, 30 people turned away.

Pre-registration is very important.

Arizona beat Gonzaga.

I don't know much more.

Nice job Chris! Congrats on your VICTORY. Will I see you up North any?

Thanks

I will be at Seneca and Brandywine playing in old. I'm not gonna lie about it, I need some cash flowing in after an abysmal 2002.

Cool, I'll be at those too. C-ya then.

Howdy Hysell

Welcome to fogeyland! Don't worry about Craiger, he picks on everyone who doesn't play Open.

Where is Skinner from? I assume the string of Maryland victories has finally been broken? DD

VA

Brian Skinner is from Va. Beach. He has won his last two PDGA events. The Crosstown will test him next weekend. Hopefully he won't be too intimidated by me playing Open. I tend to put the fear in others.

HEY NOW - Don't make me the villain just because Hysell is a BAGGER!!! /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif Yes I was funnin w/ Chris yesterday - after he said he was OLD - and that he wasn't very good. I had to ask him how many people showed up (100) - and when I reminded him that his was the fourth best score of the day - he relented and said - "I guess I'm playing in the wrong division" /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif Sorry about breakin the string of MD victories in Sherando DD - every time I thought I was gonna catch Skinner yesterday - I'd brain fart and do something goofy. Hopefully I'll shake off this winter sometime soon /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif

Craig, I didn't mean to villianize you. I will still respect you in the morning. Either you made a mistake yesterday or I missed it. You could have easily pitched your sponsorship discs. I had a pocket full of kryptonite and was looking for something to spend it on.

I finally realized what all of the whispering has been about. You guys from Maryland have been winning at Sherando for a while now. I guess I have been sleeping on the job. All streaks come to an end. Skinner has won his last 2 PDGA events, I have won my last 3. Unless one of us wins the Crosstown, our streaks will end too.

At this time I would like to thank Chris for all the input and none stop talking on Saturday, I couldn't of won without ya. I wish more N.C. players would come up and play but I was glad to see the ones who came. Thanks to everyone I played with for making it seem like casaul rounds and the people who put on the show. BS

Yeah, I get to see Pumpkin Head this weekend.

It looks like VA golfers are scared to come to NC.

Right now there are only 4 players from VA pre-registered for this years Crosstown.

How many pre-registered overall?

4 is pretty weak. Hopefully more will show up from VA and they were just too lazy to pre-reg.

We currently only have 28 spots left.

Kirk, you are right. They are scared.

Brad, I'm sorry about all of that non-stop chatter on Saturday. I really like helping out my NC neighbors. My hope was that some of it would sink in. The live version is always better than the video.

Some of it must have sunk in but I still couldn't persuade himself to throw the forehand roller under the ceder trees. However, I took no penalty strokes. BS

I'm sorry it took this long before I posted but

CONGRATULATIONS ROBZILLLLLA on your 1st PDGA Open win.

Mr. Zilla dominated yesterday at the Newport News Spring Pro/Am. He is now a member of the club of PDGA winners.

Chris,
How did Vince and the other Lynchburg guys do in Newport News yesterday?

I'm not speaking to Vince right now. I was off trading and selling discs to Dwight when they were announcing the pro winners. Vince bumped me from last cash. I didn't get to see if he took the money but I assume he did or else I would have gotten paid. I traded Dwight some plastic so I assume he finished in the loot.

Billy Adams also took his first cash money. He is another new Va. Pro.

Sorry he bumped you but we have to cheer for the local boys. I wanted to bring my kids to play but it's getting harder to get everybody together the older they get.

Nice job ROB!!!! I know its nice to bounce back after the cross-town!Keep it up man.

If you make it to Burlington for any events look me up!

Hope your daughter is ok as well!!

-Michael

Congratulations Robzilla!!!

Nice shooting Zilla!!! Congrats on your first win!

Thank you guys very very much.It was awesome ,the feeling is unbeleveable.I didnt think it was ever gonna happen with all the kick but players that are out there.Anyway thanks again, its offical my first one.....

zilla! now you are at the top of the list of kick [*****] players! congrats and keep it up. looks like you and skinner got something going on there.

way to go robzilllllla!!! anyone who wants a shot at virginia's newest open pro winner come on down to the ace run ranch disc challenge. maybe snoop will be there to defend his title as well. /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif

this is a great event on a great course! Al "Sugar" Schack calls Ace Run Ranch "VA's best course". It has also been the Winnicrew's east coast headquarters. hole 1 alone is worth the trip! (600 ft to a manmade island green) pre-register to insure your spot as the event will fill up.

John-

Is it to late to register for this event? How long would you say it was from Durham?

PEace

m

Anyone from NC heading up to this?

-m

Michael...
I was thinking about it, but haven't firmly decided yet...John told me that I should pre-reg. if I want to come...

i'm not sure about space currently. i doubt it will fill prior to day of as tidewater golfers tend to not preregister.i will talk to don and let you know tonight or tomorrow a.m.

there has been a large NC contingent at ace run each year. raleigh has been well represented and mooky, superdave and the high point crew have been there the last few years- they know how to make fire.

i am guessing slightly over 2 hours from durham.

Thanks John!! The sooner you can let me know the better. Ill go ahead and put my entry in today.

John check your email.


-m

Don/John

Or anyone that can help....

Can someone please provide me with DETAILED directions on how to get to the course? I will be heading up Friday after lunch from NC, that is as long as the tournament doesent fill before you get my check in the mail. Sent it on Saturday. Don you should have it by today or tomorrow.

Looking forward to playing a new course! I've heard good things about the course. Maybe some readers who have played it can give me some feedback. Details, scores..etc..etc..

See you Friday.

-m

Hwy 13 south 8 miles south of Hwy 58 (downtown Suffolk), 10 miles from North Carolina line.

If you drive down highway 13 and miss the course, you probably shouldn't play. There is a big sign at the entrance to the course. If you can't see the sign, you won't be able to see hole 1's basket from the tee.

cool. Thanks a lot Chris.

A review by Jeff LaGrassa, 5/02
"Except for a few shorter holes on the back nine, and especially when most of the baskets are set in the long position, "Ace Run" Ranch is somewhat of a misnomer. Most of the holes at this course play fairly long and/or exceptionally tight, and even deuces are a challenge, let alone aces. This course alternates from a tight wooded area to an open field. It also features man-made elevation changes, an island green and even "crawdad" mounds. With 'gauntlet' holes like #8 and #13, Ace Run Ranch is even tighter! The cement tee pads, bag holder posts and benches on every tee make this is one fantastic world class disc golf facility, and well worth the $5 admission fee."

Don-

Can you let me know if you recieved my entry fee yet?

Thanks,

-m

Michael, you need to call him. I have never known him to have a computer. I before e except after c college boy.

Im a NC guy and I'll be at Suffix....and I've heard a lot of people saying they're going...can't wait!

just curious how many spots were left for the tournament. wondering if i need to send money today or if i can wait to pay when i get there.
thanks,
Mike

Suffolk. Everyone needs to either call Don Johnson or give John Biscoe a call or email. Although I don't remember this event ever filling, it could happen. I would rather be safe than sorry. I am going to chance it but that's how I am.

Hey Chris,

That i before e stuff is tricky.

Ask Einstein--he's got it wrong twice in his own name.

LW

Thanks Chris for the information. I'll give him a call.

I guess a players list wont be posted prior to the event. No biggie.

I knew in the back of my mind once I read my post that someone would mention the mistake in my spelling. Thanks. Those are things a man needs to know!

Chris how would you rate this course on a 5 disc scale? 5 being the best. Also can you compare it to any other NC course?

See you this weekend.

-m

Renny hard in it's longest layout. It gets windy also. Hole #1 is one of the best holes in disc golf. Every time I go there Don has changed the course so I couldn't really give a fair evaluation. If it was a 4 last year it could be a 3 or a 5 this year. Go there early and you may also get a complimentary fishing trip.

anyone have information on the 2003 VDC?

john,
is the doubles tourney a C tier? last time i talked to mike it was not going to be sanctioned.

** By Ron Turner on Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 06:00 pm:

john,
is the doubles tourney a C tier? last time i talked to mike it was not going to be sanctioned.


yes it is. (reading comprehension lags amongst teachers in northern virginia. /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif ) lots of potential points in spotsy memorial day weekend.

But it isn't sanctioned according to the PDGA tournament page.

trust me.

Never question John!

Hoffman-

You plan on camping?

Hope to see yah at the ranch!

peace

-m

Mike W.,
Most likely I will be camping. When are you heading up?
peace,
Mike

I was wondering if anyone knows who won last year?

Walt

Hoff-

Headin' to ARR tomorrow around 2(sooner if I can wrap up things at work). Hopefully that will give time to play the course and set up camp before dark.

I've heard camping is the way to go at the ranch.

What about yourself?

-m

Hey guys does anyone know the tee time for Saturday?

its 10 Jody

Zilla, I wonder if they can handle the pressure to repeat?

tony....u gonna be there this weekend?....cuz id love to see ya!

Well I'll have to ask them if there is any pressure...........
O.K. I asked they said naaaaa.

I think Walt has made plans to attend the Lakefront Open in Kingsport,TN.

I could be wrong, but I dont believe he will be there to defend his title.

-m

You are wrong Michael. He will be at neither tournament. I have given him the weekend off. It's more like he is giving his competitors a break.

Im sure he is thankful for the time off daddy.

I know I am thankful you gave it to him.

Snoop had mentioned to me that he was going to Lakefront, but hey...things change.

See yah soon flatop

-m

Sorry Guys. I think its car buying weekend for snoop and his old lady. Good Luck to everyone at both events.

Snoop

get something fast so christina and hysell can race. /msgboard/images/clipart/happy.gif

I'm looking at the 240hp Accord LX. I know that doesn't compare to Chris's 330hp Corvette, but at least my golf bag will fit in mine.

10-10:30 am GST (Grange Standard Time) for the VDC??

That Zilla guy sure is talking much smack about the VDC. I wonder if he can back it up? Maybe Walt will forget his anniversary and come de-throne the current champs. Then again, Dwayne and myself have won quite a few doubles events. Scared yet Zillllla?

John,
Thanks again to you and Don for a great weekend at the Ace Run. Course in Suffolk is awesome - imagine it's even better when it's not raining! It was a good time and we're looking forward to the 2 Days in May.

John Kramer, was that your super colorful fly dyed comet that came out of the moat? It was found after the tournament.

It was Chris, do you have it?

No, it is still there.

Chris, I wouldn't worry about Zilla just yet. You have to get passed Bryan and I. Of course this is assuming Bryan doesn't drink too much the night before and can get there on time.

And Tony and Mose.

Don't count out Team MD just yet!

TEAM AC ?? Pat you must have miss typed

Hey guys thoses Bayvillans are pretty tough I'de watch out for them.Chris I'm not talking smack I'm talking fact.Just trying to two peat.

Finally have a partner for the VDC and can't wait to play The Grange! Hopefullly the weather will be good. Chris, is the entry fee smaller this year for the doubles?

PP, I don't know. I just copied and pasted from John Biscoe's earlier post. I didn't play last year so I really don't know but doubles events in Va. are typically $50 per team.

I was just informed that my email address is incorrect on the PDGA Tour schedule.

Please note that the correct address is

[email protected]

I will try to get it corrected.

Pat, who is your partner?

It "does'nt matter" who his partner is.......
P.S.Thanks Pat

anyone that is comming from out of town for the battelfield open that wants or needs a place to stay can e-mail me at [email protected]
i am about 40 min from either course. i have 2 bedrooms that can be borrowed.

Ron, CraigG &amp; I are teaming up. You playing? Looking forward to battling all the stiff comp. that always shows up, even Hysell.

Keith Barboza, who is your partner @ The Grange?

Well ,I guess it does matter now....

Chris...

Im trying to register for next weekend....can't get mike to answer..left a message a few days ago, no reply....can u help me out?

I certainly will. Next Saturday when I see him, I'll get him to call you. I wouldn't sweat it. There are two courses there and it will take 180 players to fill the tournament. You should be okay.

thanks man.....my number is 919-389-5780....regestering for both doubles and 2 days...

thanks

robert

Dylan,Frick is his partner. Chris got" GOODIES "

Robert, did you really read my reply? I said next Saturday, which is the day of the event.

Im extremely excited about my first weekend at the Grange. After moving into my new house this past weekend, a disc-golf retreat is exactly what I need. See you all Friday, the convoy is leaving Roanoke around noon.

can anyone out there do a STOP the rain dance? i have played in about 5 or 6 tournaments this year and been wet in all but one. now they are calling for rain starting on wed. and going through sunday. also going to be cool, low to mid 50's at night and only low to mid 60's during the day. please everyong call your prayer lines and whatever. we need to stop the rain for this up coming weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was originally posted in the DGONV yahoo group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dgonv concerning the Laurel Hill Project. Thought maybe i'd spread the word since I know some of you might want to know about it/help out:

We will be able to put in a temporary 9 or 18 hole course in the Laurel Hill park for their grand opening. We will be able to show them what a disc golf course will look like and that people are interested in playing.

I will get more information tomorrow but I know we will need temporary baskets to pull this off. Please let me know if you can donate a temporary basket for this demo day.
Thanks,
Tommy Donelson

Chris-

Did you ever get any scores from the DE tournaments this weekend? Wasnt it 2 "B" Tiers? Let me know whatcha know!

-m

There is not enough space here for me to let you know what I know. The Breeze is posted on the MADC site. I assume that the Treeze will be posted later.

Here is a tidbit of my knowledge.
Treeze
Open
1st Mike Moser 100
2nd Joe Mela, Brian Skinner 101
4th Bob Graham 103

Masters
1st Tim Kady 100
2nd Jeff Sweetman 107
3rd Chris Hysell 108

Open Women
1st Heather Azato

hey chris.......i called biscoe like a week ago and he got up w/ me, so i got everything settled and ready to go...thanks for your help and see ya there!

Does anyone know what the format will be for the doubles?

Pat what I hear is best shot on the new,alternate ,best score,worst shot ,but only one you have to make it on the sunny side...

I read that 5 times before I kind of understood. Here is my best interpretation.

DarkSide - 18 holes of Best shot
SunnySide 6 holes alternate, 6 holes best score, 6 holes worst shot until the hole is complete. That is called devils doubles, 666.

I could be wrong.

Does anyone need a doubles partner for advanced or possibly open? I met Mike at Paw Paw last year and will give him a call about the tourney, but wanted to post here to see if I could pick up a partner. If anyone needs a partner please let me know via this message board. Thanks

Thanks Rob &amp; Chris. Now lets hope we have some decent weather! C-ya Saturday.

I'm slow and I guess I don't know my grange lingo. What is the dark side and sunny side?

Think Ron. The sunny side has the most open holes, i.e., the original course. I guess the proper names should be Grange North and Grange South.

here's a question ... should I be placing myself in a division according to my rating? I know there is a correlation between division and rating. So for example, I play adv am with a rating of 900-something, but what if after a tournament my rating falls classifying me within the ranks of Int Am? do I become int am?

C'mon Ron........THINK!

Ron - If your lookin for a partner, Tom Kim may be available. Send me a message if you need his #[email protected]

Add an s after pitt. [email protected]

I told you, I was slow. I figured it out after I put it up there.

Thanks Pat, but I do have a partner. (Bryan Steffen)

Worst shot should be interesting. I've never played that. Once the putt is made, the hole is over correct? Both players do not have to make the putt.

This out of towner still needs a partner, come on guys where's the love.

It's bring your own, AdamL, Oh! you never have any thats right!

(:

I'm a good advanced player and I've played the Pugsley format many times just not a local that needs a local partner.

adam,
i may know a good open player (john fowler- the hillbilly cajun) needing a partner but will not know until he arrives here from louisiana which could be any time between tonight and thursday midday. i will let you know as soon as i can. i will keep my ears out for an advanced player as well. you can email me at [email protected]

I know a really good Open player who needs a partner.

kevin,
it seems to me that at this point most of the players in the advanced division in VA are actually carrying int ratings. as a fairly young guy your game is probably still on the upswing. bottom line is what level of reward/fulfillment you are seeking out of it. in advanced it is quite likely that you will play better yet finish worse. playing better is a good thing. in int you can quite likely place highly without playing your best. winning/competing to win is a good thing as well. both positions have their pros and cons. sorry to take so long to say it's all up to you.

...and who would that be pray tell? i thought you were a masters player.

It's an "iffy" player. When I talked to him Saturday night, he was in 11th place at Bowling Green in the open but spent all day Sunday puking all over the course. He still hasn't recovered. I don't expect him to physically be able to play doubles. Why would I need a partner? My dance card is full for the next 20 yrs.

Chris I know I met you in Paw Paw last year, but I had the flu during that tourney so I wasn't very sociable. Thanks guys for the info and keep me posted on any partner for open or advanced and I will make the contacts. How far is the drive from Baltimore to The Grange?

hour and a half, providing the traffic is moving on that god forsaken piece of asphalt called I95.

I want to come down and play in the 2 days in may tournament. Are there still ADV. spots open?
Thanks

come on down

they can take up to 180 total so spaces are likely not an issue. doubles would be the more likely of the 2 to fill.

Come on mudders.

I'll be there!

How many rounds in the doubles on Saturday? Any hotel recommendations?
Thanks

2 rounds for doubles- 1 best shot, 1 devil's doubles (666-best score,alt shot, worst shot)

holiday inn express thornburg is closest. their # is 540-582-1097. it is an easy 8 mile drive to the grange. there will also be soggy camping available at the grange.

I want the big puddle next to the club house!

Thats my puddle......!I"ll be there tomorrow to stake my claim......!

Zilla, SORRY I have all ready setup camp.. So SAD to BAD.. Sea ya at the Grange BABY!!!

no no no, T. it's too BAD so SAD.

did u shake the cobwebs out yet for Sat?

So, hows The Grange holding up from all the rain?

I hope we get some rain.

Start time on Saturday?

Well I am leaving for Baltimore and if anyone needs a partner for the Virginia dbs please call Adam at 614-565-2948 and leave a message. Thanks

andy- start time 10:00.
adam- no luck on my end.

what is the start time on sunday??? assuming i can get over my cold and make it...

also i wish doubles was monday so i didn't have to try 95 north on onday evening! oh well.

Rich, isn't it better that you have one more day to get over your cold? Unless you enjoy playing in the rain with a cold. Just assume that it starts at 10:00 on Sunday but the secret is that Grange time always runs a little late.

how true! hopefully i'll get over it, i really need some play time...

finally the weekend i have been waiting for. i have heard soo much about this event! and hopefully God will bless us with some sunshine!

Woooohooooo!!!!! The best tournament in all of the land... Grange, here I come!!!!!!!

turns out i am still recovering. if mike doesn't get the message, could someone tell him i can't make it, and i designate dave backus to use my pre-paid entry fee. if he doesn't make it, one of the noble boys or another poor md boy can use it. thanks Rich

I hope it keeps raining.

So Chris--

Did you pull out of the Grange with a win? Would you happen to know any results?

GL this weekend in Augusta!

-m

Does anyone in Suffolk, VA know if the Ace Run Ranch turned in the results from the event they held last month?

Dont see them yet? I know it was just last month, but I see a lot of other event held after this one that are already in.

Just curious.

-m

Some results that I know (remember)

Open:
1.Skinner
2.Moser
3.J.G.
4.Vince W.
5.Fowler
6.Turner
7.Gawler

Masters:
1.Hysell

Advanced:
1.Jeremy Locke

and Mose/Tony Ellis won doubles on Saturday.

It was a great 3 days.

MW, John Biscoe should turn in the results for the Ace Run but he told me yesterday that his computer was down. I'm not sure who will turn in this weekend's results. Where were you? You typically post that you are coming to every event that has a thread but I have only seen you twice this year.

For those of you that didn't make it this year, you missed rain, Woodstock, some difficult golf conditions, mud and the truck and tractor pull. Some people may still be there.

If anyone is planning on coming next year, please leave your dogs at home. This is a people event. If I wanted to deal with dogs, I would go to a dog show.

2 Days in May is a tournament that i will never miss. The Grange is the place to play! I got "Grange-ed" on Saturday night and did not play well Sunday, but turned things around on Monday. Mike and Jenny thank you so much for everything! I was wondering if the van is still in the back yard!

Did Vince accept the cash?? Finally rollin' with the MOJO!!

Big Valley Vince?!

I think that Vince has been accepting the cash since Newport News. He played well this weekend. It's never too late to learn the sidearm.

Chris-

Congrats on the win!!

I have played in 7 tournaments this year, all had rain but 1 ! I just couldnt do another rain event! I would of loved to of played at the Grange! maybe next year I will.

Dont worry you will see my lovely profile soon I'm sure!!

Wont be in Augusta this weekend, but will be playing in the Big Valley (nice weather...nice weather...gimme nice weather). Im on call at work so I have to be close to the city of medicine.

GL !!

Brian is playing some GREAT golf!!! Keep it up VA !!

-m

Skinner never gave up. I'm not sure about his scores but his 1st 2 rounds weren't that good. He came back yesterday and won by one stroke. Here is my best re-creation of scores. I could be wrong about Skinner and Moser's scores. I'm basing everything off of the fact that JG had a 3 stroke lead going into the final round and shot a -1 and Mike and Brian shot a -9. I know JG's total is correct because we had the same score.

Brian Skinner 198
Mike Moser 199
John Gregory 203

Yeah, those scores are right.

All cashing scores in open:

1. Skinner 198 $420
2. Moser 199 $230??
3. J.G. 203 $175??
4. Vince 204 $115
5. Fowler 205 $110
6. Turner 206 $85
7. Gawler 214 $70

I'm ashamed to say that I only know a few of the scores in the Masters. I never looked at the payout. That makes me pretty one-way doesn't it.

1st Chris Hysell 50-50-57-46 = 203 $300
2nd Mitch Hoeppner 54-55-58-46 = 213
Last cash was 217 by 3 players.

BTW, Jeremy Locke's total was 213. He would have cashed in Open.

I wonder if any of the scores will OFFICIALLY be posted?

I hope not, then everyone can see how crappy i played /msgboard/images/clipart/sad.gif
