Club decision makers!
I need for you all to get together and decide if we (I mean me) want Round Rock to continue running this event. The event was jockey away from snowy farm to make a true championship. I wanted the doubles tradition to live on in Round Rock and so I stepped up.
I have many irons in the fire and I am unable to continue running this event.
I had suggested that the club do it and make it all it can be. If the club is not willing to make this happen, I will have no choice but to allow another city to host the event. I want to see the event be a true championship and I can not concentrate that much effort into it.
So you all need to let me know, lets say before the end of April. May 1st I will decide its fate.

6 views and no response ........ :confused:

simma...
how many members do we have?
how many of those have ran a sanctioned tourney?

And wonder why no reply after 6 views?

Give it time...this is no easy decision...

I am not a club decision maker but I would like for it to stay here!!

The Dragon do such a great job and the course is a championship course that I to would hate to see it leave Round Rock even if I'm just a AM :D

If I was staying in TX I would be all over that. With as many club members as we have now you could put even 3 or 4 of those heads together and work out a great tourney. If we can get 40 players for a wed. league @3:30!!! than I know our club can run a tourney, just need folks to step up and dedicate. Give back to the game!
RR needs a doubles tournament for sure.

Andrew Carnige didn't know a thing about making steel, but he knew how bring together the right people. Even if no one has run an event in the past, I'm sure that support would surface and the torch could be pasted on to another Dragon.

I hope you all work things out, TX Pro Doubles needs to say in Round Rock.

My feelings on the matter are as follows...

Any TRUE state championship should move around the state. Especially in Texas where there is a TON of good courses. I feel the same way about Texas states as I do about ANY state out there where people are putting on state championships.

IMHO, Old Settlers to me is not the championship course people would like to think it is. It is a breeding ground for distance throwers and wind players. It IS THE BEST training grounds I have ever been around. Before any of you RR's go and hate on me, understand this, I LOVE OLD SETTLERS DG. The best times I have ever had in DG have been at the ROCK!

Let the tourney move around. I feel the same about the AMS tourney also. I don't feel it should be at Randons every single year. I feel a state tourney should be just that-something that showcases the state's courses, not one cities courses year after year.

They are merely tournament names not official championships!!IMO the only true championship in dg is the USDGC where its an honor just to have the opportunity to play!!

Move it around is The club has plenty of non tournament players, they should step up and help run the tournament since they nerver play in sancationed events.

are you talking just about PROS? if so what incentive is there for the club to want to run this?

Same as mine "A championship of doubles at the Rock."
I don't make money on it and I am still willing to help raise money.
And you never know the ams /pros may come together....at least they should.
It would not take much if more than 1 person made it happen. I am not trying to get out of it........I just think its time the club took some accountablity.

understand. you going to be there tomorrow? if so bring it up

true, Old settlers may not be championship caliber compared with some of the other courses that are out there, but it is the most well manicured course in the area and it makes a great doubles course which is why there should be at least one yearly doubles event in RR.

It is a breeding ground for distance throwers and wind players.


:confused:sounds like two great skills to have to me :confused:

That was a compliment to Old Settlers and the people who play there B. Not many courses raise a beginners game to a greater standard like the ROCK.

Played Powell Course twice on Monday - Wet w/ 30 MPH Winds... Did not play The Wilmont Course as it typically holds more water

wow did you see that it was 1 year to the day that someone posted on that thread.... :D

I was wondering how did TSD2007 went

Just keeping the thread alive :D:D

Besides - did not look at the year, thought it was a post from today :o

bump...whats the latest?

scores?.......lol

seriously, what's the latest on the dubs tournies?

hmmmmm.....well let think on it....oh wait that is something else that is not getting my total focus cause of WAY to many irons in the fire........ I'll check in to it for you

Salazar you can not receive PM'S.

I can receive pms.......tell us all

Stop on by.

too busy with real projects....maybe soon things seem to be working out

Vincent Miller Salazar, you are Mexican :D

Salazar you can not receive PM'S.



i should be ok now..

Vinnie had to open his pie hole, you just can't be nice

I just do as others do to I

GROUND BOX!

WHEN WE GETTING TEE BOXES?

THE MONEY FOR THE TAGS WERE USED FOR PERSONAL GAIN....
You catch the drift yet....pie hole closed for now

What is a PIE HOLE???
OOOHHHHH!!! It must the area just below your nose!!

Great job today!! GREAT FING JOB TODAY!!
DBLR rules!! We rule!! See all you guys and ladies wednesday for concrete!!

bump

so is there a doubles series being run by Flying high that is tied to sending the winners to world doubles?

thats how it should be, i say :cool:

thats how it should be, i say :cool:

:D

bump

Isn't Ware and chile running this?...that may have been the year before.
let us know yah's plans

be hard pressed to find an open weekend in this state.

it can always be ran the same weekend as Texas ams

I thought heard something about a doubles series??

danger is running a doubles series............but it is called run throw and run away

LOL :p

Gary has it on the same weekend as Am Doubles.
http://www.lsdga.com/sched/index.php

oh and it appears vinnie is running it.. :D:p

AHH....NO!

What would be a good weekend for Pro Texas State Doubles?
I would be happy to help get this thing going. ;) :)

mar 8-9 but there will be no ams testing the water since that is the same weekend as round top.

Looks good to me. So what is next?

Pay the sanctioning fee to the PDGA, make a flyer, and make it happen. Let us know what help you need for course prep & the club will make it happen. Wilco would be in for this, but it's a dollar per player per round & they require some advanced notice. Let me know about the courses & I'll talk with the county. Rivery seems to be in pretty good shape as well... I'm happy to help staff if you need. I have some experience on game day :)

RR will have orange fence around 13, 14, b and c...

:cool:Cool THANKS!!!!

Is this still on?

Anyone word would be nice!
There are folks calling me.........call it one way or another. Too bad there wasn't some dedication to running this event, This event would have a big turnout.
It could have a round at Bedbrook, Wilco, Rivery, and the Rock....wait it is starting to sound like I am running this event.
Well?

let see the weekend we were thinking of using was this weekend. which leaves us no time to get prepared for a tourney on one course much less 4 courses and also seeing how not many have offered to help and no one has talked about other than on here. I would say this is NOT going to happen.

Is that time again? I heard last night that you should be out finding your partner for an upcoming Round Rock Doubles Tournament... Feb 28th & March 1st... Oh wait, now I remember - I said "Sure, I'll TD Texas State Pro Doubles." More details to come (& I bet a work day or 2). Talk to me Wednesday night if you have questions (or want to give me money for the tournament :))

Talk to me Wednesday night if you have questions (or want to give me money for the tournament )

So here it is - Saturday Feb 28th 2 rounds Manor (best shot - best score), Sunday March 1st 1 round Wilco (Alternate) & a 21 hole final at the Rock (7, 7, 7) 75 holes.

I am still available for any help that is needed. Just let me know what is needed.

Show up @ Manor @ 7:30 Saturday am & I'll tell you what to do. Thanx :)

No ace this past Sunday, so in keeping with Round Rock tradition, there's a $454 ace pot to current club members Sunday @ Wilco for Tx St Pro Dubs (Alternate shot - he he :)). You must be current before tee off or tough marbles. It's $10 to renew - $25 to join. New members get member tag & t-shirt.

I don't think I'm going to be able to make it this weekend. Looks like I will be having people at the new house working on it all weekend. Have fun and I'll come out if possible.

Lala, the boss gave me the ok to be a spotter for the morning round at Manor....just tell me when i need to show up!

Trying to resend them but got a message back from server that it was rejected probably because it was too big. 102 pictures. If I can't get it to go through, I'll bring all of them on a flash drive to Wilco after I go to the gym in the morn. Then you can use the flash drive to send them to whoever. LT

Tried again and wouldn't go through......I'll bring the flash drive by in the morning. With all the computer guru's available, you'll find a way to get the pictures out!

Gret LT - thanx!!

Thanx to every on e that helped make this happen. Good staff spotting & even a few people in the gallery yesterday.

Did you get the pictures on the flash drive? Good one of Chile's disc surrounded by cactus, and an unusual one of Joel Kelly throwing a thumber, surrounded by cactus on 18!

Hey LT you do know you can just send the pics in multiple emails instead of just 1.

I already had them in one folder. I'd have to put them in several folders. I still can if you want me to, but I thought you would know a better way since you guys are the computer guru's! /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

They are on the way in 4 separate emails. Hope there is enough space on your server!

got them.. thanks also a huge Thank you goes out to the TD and Spotters sure made the manor rounds a little easier.. and my cadi thank you for saving my back :D

Just got word from the City of Round Rock that my Sunday layout @ OSP is a go. Waiting to hear back from Austin about Manor - they were hard to reach last year, but were totally open to our use. Right now, I have things scheudled for the last weekend in February (27th & 28th) using Manor all day Saturday & OSP South Sunday am & OSP 21 Sunday afternoon - same formats (I think the order was best score, best shot, alternate & 7,7,7). Will see what OB looks like as we get closer - prob same as Outlaws for both OSP courses & will see what water looks like @ Manor in Feb. Get your partner - I'll have an entry form out soon.

Sweet !,... weekend BEFORE state weenie doubles. That means I know someone who could PRO staff. ;)

Sweet !,... weekend BEFORE state weenie doubles. That means I know someone who could PRO staff. ;)

Yes & thanx Fish - you are Pro Staff. With all my "regular" staffer hopefully playing, I will need some help with this one.

1st things 1st - I need is more money to get more players. I already have some cash sponosrship coming in, but would like to have $300 added for this year.

2nd - having Am & Pro on dif weekends gives the "weenies" (as you said, not me) a chance to play a great Pro Event on 3 amazing courses as their warm up for whoopin arse out @ the Snow Farm March 6/7 & Circl R 2 on March 20/21 - with Tx St Pro Dubs not being PDGA, there's no affect on your Am status for cashing so let's see some top Am teams this year too!

appears the 3rd coast is also having vic open on this date.... :(

OK - city says we're ready to go. Sorry for the schedule conflict - sure would be great if Vic wnet back to my B-Day weekend. So many great memories that I don't remember from those events!

Thanx again to all that helped make this come together - not a money maker for the club, but a great Pro Event in our house is good to have. Hope to see more players out next year & think with a little work we can almost fill this thing - love to see some ladies teams. Could use some help pulling the front 9 today, please get with Steve-O & Edman to make this happen. See you in the fairway!

Call me and I can help with the NINE

I checked...this is the tourney thread and there they are!

Let's plan on meeting at hole 8 on the south course (parking lot right after low water crossing) at 5:00. It would be great to have a 2nd truck out there. We can be done in about an hour if we get a good showing. We need to pull 1-9 and get them back into storage about 2 miles from the park. I'll bring the beer.

Anybody running the PRO side?

need to run it by the members and see if there is interest in running this event. if the members want too then i say we do but if the members dont then the same 5-6 people will not be running it..

who should run it by the members

the cabinet will discuss this today if there is enough interest in running this event then we will seek the help from the members if the members dont want to help we will not be running it.. more news to follow..
