Dave, is this program starting up in Wake County also?

no

Just a reminder that the Durham monthly is this Saturday at Cornwallis Road Park. The first of two rounds starts at 11 am, with registration from 10 - 10:45 am. If you don't have other plans and are up for a fun day of disc golf in the heat..... come on out. There will be nice payouts for each division and a few CTP prizes. See you there!

All of you guys from Durham are suppose to be coming to the Pro-Am in Burlington. Forget the monthly and come out to play in the PDGA event!!

Hope to see you guys there.

Durham's July Monthly Results...

Once again "Discraft Diamond" Dave McQuay took top honors in the Open/Pro division by shooting a hot 21 under (-8 from the alt pads and -12 from the regs). He also snagged the $42 ace pool by getting the first ace of the day on hole #4 during the second round. There were two other aces hit in the second round.... Robbie Dunn got #9 & Scott Williams hit #12.

In the Open division, Dave birdied the last 3 holes to squeeze out a 1 stroke victory over Robbie Dunn & Jim Markov who both shot 88's for 20 under.

In the Advanced division, the top two spots were taken by two guys who moved up from the Am division this month. Norman Williams shot a 94 (with a smokin' 41 on the regs during the second round) & John Sheffield took 2nd with a 99.

There were 14 players in the Am/Intermediate division and Scott Williams took first with a 101. Jamie Perkins placed second with a 103 and Miles Dunn (14 years old) took third with a 104.

> shooting a hot 21 under (-8 from the alt pads and -12 from the regs).

Uh ... last I checked -8 -12 = -20, not -21. Correct total score 2 strokes = -18, therefore Robbie and Jim tie for first. /clipart/happy.gif

LOL

Dooooh. I guess my math is almost as good as Robert's spelling :^)
Looks like I need to proof my posts a bit better before sending. Fortunately the scores are/were correct on the webpage link, but here's the actuals for Dave, Robbie & Jim.

Dave actually shot 46 (-8) & 41 (-13) for the winning total of 87 (-21)
Robbie shot 46 (-8) & 42 (-12) for an 88 (-20)
Jim shot 47 (-7) & 41 (-13) also for an 88 (-20)

> Dave actually shot 46 (-8) & 41 (-13) for the winning total of 87 (-21)

Darn! I thought I'd figured out the reason for all his success since switching to discraft. /clipart/happy.gif

hey durham,
who wants to play sunday morning....zeb? buck? burl?

Chris,
I have plans at 2:00pm on Sunday. I would play any course early in the morning.

BCDC Bag Tag #2 is MIA! The last time I saw it was at UNC, it apparently came off with my towel. Maybe pufferfish has a replacement.

> BCDC Bag Tag #2 is MIA!

The good news is you can by a replacement tag. The bad news: it'll cost you $73. /clipart/proud.gif

Felix,
Pete came through with an additional $8 from the first week's ace pool...it should be $81. Be sure to come watch the three-peat this Thursday!

Just remember, Steve: CE Rhynos have been banned. /clipart/proud.gif

hey mullet that tag can easily be replaced......how much was in those ace pools????
also club meeting 1st mon in aug. sals 7 pm

6 o'clock doubles tonight right? Valley Springs?

-m

Mike,
Yes to both. See you there. Everyone please come contribute to the Steve Waters Ace Pool Fund!

Hit the pole on 1 but that was all.

Saw a few poles hit in our group as well. Ace pool surrvies another day at VS.

-m

Anybody playing today? I have the phantom #2 tag up for grabs!

Hello everyone,

I found an orange Z-WASP with an identification of Norman W. Does anyone know how to contact Norman Williams?


Gary

Thanks Fluviatilis. I forgot about having Scotts email--Sent him a message just now.


Good luck in your league match. The time has come to knock off the heavyweights from the other division. I have the undefeated Bernie Prabucki on Saturday.

Later,
Gary

remember all durham disc golfers we have a meeting monday night at sal's.....if you need directions email me.

Dave Finished in the Cash!!!!!

47th place

We should all bow before the chief!!!

Uh ... Brian, I think Dave's sponsor might have a problem with us bowing before a Gateway disc. /clipart/happy.gif

And exactly who is the chief again? Diamond? I dont think so!

Nice worlds Dave!!
Nice worlds Hofman as well!!

-m

its me

Dave,
Any idea when you plan on holding Durham Ace race? Also, we're playing for tags tomorrow... 10:30 Valley SPrings. We'd love to have you come humilate us or...maybe lose!?!?!?!?!?

Steve, how about the regular monthly date? A one round tournament of 27 holes at Cornwallis,18 regular,then the back nine alternate!!!! TEE at nine oclock. lunch. Then Valley springs for the ACE RACE!!! For those that dont want to play the monthly can play the Ace race at lunchtime, shouldnt take too long no putts, upshots.Throw and Go!!!

Ace race at valley springs september 13

Should we skip the monthly,go straight to the ace race?

I like having both the same day. Good idea.

September 13 ??

The same day as the College National Championship Game

N.C. State Vs. Ohio State 12:00 ABC

Of course It is tough to play from Ohio as well as I will prob be at the game.

Best of luck to ya Dave in running this tourney, don't guess I will be able to make it currently. /clipart/sad.gif

Hey guys, I have a flier that I would like to pass on to your club, and possibly have it posted on your web site as well as on the course. Let me know who to send it to, and I will do so.

-m

Mike,you can give them to me this weekend in Hickory .
Dave.

The ace race will more than likely be on Wednesday,9/17/03 from 4:30 to 7:00. The monthly will go on as usual.

{sarcasm}No need to change the ace race on account of me Dave.{/sarcasm}
You already put in enough time for Disc Golf in Durham and in NC. If you want to hold the event on Saturday go for it. I am sure you will still have lots of particapants.

I really hope I am not the reason that you are changing the date.

Dave-

Thanks man. I will pass those to you. Can I send someone an electronic version of the flier? I wanted to see if you guys could post it on your club web site?

Let me know.

-m

Norris,

I am trying to stay within the dates allocated by Discraft.9/15- 9/22. I still want you there!

Kevin Heatcock,
Email me if you're still up for Buckhorn tomorrow. I lost your address. Anybody else interested? Anybody got Kevin's email?

Thanks for the update dave.

I will be there.

Check your E-mail M. cephalus

Thanks Mike. 10am Buckhorn? Anyone?

Just wanted to annouce this little shin-dig we're throwin' over at the Carolina course to all of you Durham folks-

This Saturday (October 4th) will be the LAST doubles event for the fall season here at the Carolina Outdoor Education Center course. We have decided to have a CTP blowout of the ACE pool money, here is the deal:

The event will cost $2 to play in and $1 to take a shot at the Ace and CTP prizes.

There will be at least 9 CTP holes for plastic (Innova and Discraft). Two additional holes will split the ace pool cash for Saturday's event (i.e., if there are 10 entrants, two CTP's will be for $5 cash). In the event of an ACE, all CTP plastic and cash will go to the person who hits it.

The usual payout to the winners of the event will also take place.

Come out and take a shot on a fine fall morning!

Hole #1, Start time: 9:30AM

-Ryan-

thursday night dbls at valley springs...ace pool is close to 150 now.......lets put it over 200. come on out we start at 530

Bull City Players any tourneys going on sun nov 2, anyone looking to play 3rd or 4th, possible the 5th. have to travel to durham for work. email me and let me know. thanks

Tim-

I work here in Durham, and I would gladly meet up with you on one of those days. Use my email on my profile.

When will Valley Springs Doubles move to sunday, and when will they start?

The random doubles at Valley Springs played the last Thursday night event (at least until next year), last night. It moves to Sundays starting THIS Sunday at 10:30 am.

Also, the random doubles that's been playing Tuesday nights at Cornwallis, moves to Saturday starting tomorrow. The Cornwallis doubles occurs on all Saturdays except BCDC Monthly Events (2nd Saturday of each month).

Will the usuals be up for a tag challenge at VS around 9am? Did anyone hit the ace pool yet? No golf in ten days...I'm all itchy.

So was the Ace pool ever hit???

I was hoping to come that way on Thursday, but it looks like it will have to be Sunday for some action!!

-m

mike myself and at least 2 other are thinking about doing a cross town thing on sunday. kinda simulate a tourny day. email me if you want times ect. it is in my profile

pete rich hit the 200 bill corny ace. no ace at the valley. gonna use the money to build some steps entering the course.

Just trying to figure out the new board and to get his thread active.

steve this thing used to be easier to use.

be at valley springs tommorow at 230 to see the proposed course redesign. it will make the valley longer, tighter and tougher, but still offer a short layout to help develop the begginer

Doubles tomorrow at 10 at Valley Springs? Yes? No?
Anyone going to be there?

Eric

My bad on my previous post. Will there be doubles at 10:30 at Valley Springs tomorrow (sunday)?

Eric

Chris,

Can you please give us some more details about the proposed changes to Valley Springs? Which holes are you talking about? Have you considered just adding Alt tee pads but keeping the course as is? Lastly, who will decide which changes (if any) will be made? Valley Springs is my favorite course in the Triangle, so I'm quite interested in this.

Lowe Bibby
Garner, NC

Dear Chris, Diamond Dave and the BCDC movers and shakers,

PLEASE don't be hasty about making changes at Valley Springs! It is already such a great course. Why tamper with it? I've played almost every course in NC, 62 to date, and VS is one of my favorites. It's my favorite course in the Triangle! I think that every course should have a Mission statement about what it seeks to be. For example, Kentwood is a great beginner's course to introduce lots of NC State students to the sport. I think that VS has a great niche of being just the right challenge while not too long for the average player (coincidentally like myself). I think that there are lots of people like me who don't have big arms and don't throw all that far. But VS is still a great challenge with some excellent hyzer and anhyzer fairways. Please tread cautiously before making any changes. <font color="blue"> Valley SPrings is such a great course already!!</font>

Was anything decided at the meeting about the changes to Vally Springs?

Eric

I could'nt make it (Wife's Birthday) But I heard a "statement" was signed by 14 of the 16 people that were there,saying they did not want the course changed,and they would really like to have shorter tee pads installed ,for it plays too long the way it is. :p

What about the four club meetings when only three showed up?(happened to be officers)

Cool Monthly this weekend!!!
Crosstown Event!!! regular tees at both courses.
First round at Cornwallis 11:00
I believe I am undefeated so far this year at the monthlies I have competed in.Bring it on!!!

From the discussions at the courses and at Sals this past Monday, it does seem there are a lot of local disc golfers (some new, but many who have played the course for years) who really like Valley Springs in it's current layout and would like to be able to continue playing it that way..... BUT the "statement" passed around didn't rule out additions to the course... it just said to leave the current layout "as-is". Most everyone I've seen or talked to is open to adding alternate pads where applicable (mostly longer pads, but some have expressed an interest in shorter ones).... Also there was talk of actually adding baskets on holes 5 &amp; 7 to allow for the proposed changes and yet still keep the current baskets (there are courses that have multiple baskets and that would allow everyone to get their wish).

One thing that's been very positive with the discussions surrounding changes to Valley Springs has been the number of people who have spoken up to say how much they like our little course here in Durham. At the Kentwood monthly in Raleigh today, I even had a couple golfers tell me that VS is their favorite course in the Triangle.... and that they frequently drive over from Raleigh to play.

Enough rambling from me...... now how about this week's Crosstown.....Cornwallis regs for everyone in the morning.... SWEEEEEEEEEET

Rhyno,

Valley Springs is my favorite course in the Triangle! (But I said that above too.)

Lowe

Thanks for clearing that up Rhyno man!!!
Arent there courses that have two pins?


It looks like both of our PDGA tournaments have been demoted to "C" tier status. At least for the pro level.
Can anyone give me any insight on this?

Monthly in Durham this weekend!!!! :eek:

changes to 7? did you mean 9 or 17 i dont rember any changes to 7 ever being disscussed?????

The vast majority of those in attendance were against the proposed changes. However, circumstances didn't really allow for a fair representation of the other side. As Robbie stated, most think that the alt tees are a good idea and additional baskets would also be acceptable. The holes that I heard discussed were 5, 9 and 12. I think we have a potential safety issue with the alternate location for 18, there are lots of softball players warming up there on the weekends.

Anyway, everyone have fun at the monthly, I'll miss another one on account of being in Arizona.

Chris, I heard there was an addition to your family. Congratulations!

thanks steve sorry you can't make it this week-end. i do have an addition natalie josephine benson came at 32 weeks. she is 3 lbs 15 oz and doing great. again thanks to steve for being the ONLY officer at the meeting. hopefully we can use the january meeting as a venue to get everyone together and come to some concensus as to what to do at valley springs. i am glad to hear there is iterest in alt tees and dual pins. if there could be ONLY ONE pin location for each hole i would favor moving a couple, BUT there ain't no rule in discgolf land that says you must only have one. **** i likedisc golf land i hope i can live there one day. :cool:

I actually meant 12..... don't know how 7 came out of it.... but holes 5 &amp; 12 were the ones where secondary baskets were mentioned at the meeting.


changes to 7? did you mean 9 or 17 i dont rember any changes to 7 ever being disscussed?????

i was sick for a while also. i know how 12 becomes 7 :cool:

Chris, Congratulations!!! I'm glad to hear Natalie is doing well.I hope Kelsie is well also.I hope you are doing well also,it must have been an ordeal. Please let me know if I can help you out in anyway.
I'm Looking forward to running the monthly this weekend!!!

thanks dave i will be there saturday barring any unforseen problems. glad you are running it though. gonna make sure you don't go undefeated too. :)

I was wrong .I was defeated the first event of the year.P-nut , and Dickerson took me.

Just got whippped up on again. 20 under usually wins around here.Nice shooting Robbie Dunn!!!

And 19 under can take second,Great golfing Jon Shefield!!!! :eek:

Good Going Diamond Dave, Norman, and Chris Banning for the wins.

Time to order some more plastic eh Dave?

Hey Dave...

What weight do you want those HD Hawks?

Actually I only ended up only getting one HD Hawk for you Dave. It is a 173 White HD Hawk. The heavier stuff was in different colors. It is only costing me 14 dollars too.

You made the right decision! thanks so much. See you at the Ice Bowl?or how about the club meeting next monday at 7:00 at Sal's

I will be at the Ice Bowl, but I am pretty sure I won't be able to make the meeting. I haven't decided if I am going to visit mom this weekend or not.

John, "I've only been playoing for freaking 9 months and I can throw over freaking 400 feet" Sheffield, the Dunn Dynasty and I will be making the trek to High Point tomorrow. Mooky's Cup is right around the corner! Bring it on BCDC! Jion us!

Geez, it took me like 4 years to throw 400...of course I started at 10, which means I was 14....

Dave, I got the Hawks in today.

I can see why you like them. Very grippy.

I got your white one and I picked up a blue one(174) which I will put up as a CTP at Buckhorn Open.

Thanks Plank. You should hold on to the Blue one and drop your scores a little bit!!

Will that disc lower my scores that much?

I think it is funny that I play better in non-pdga rounds at these courses.

This is for Pete Rich.
I found your pink Champinion Beast (B 1) in the woods on the left of 18, up near the tee at Valley Springs. I saw Steve Waters and gave it to him. Just wanted to let you know the fate of your disc.

Eric

This is also for Pete Rich.
If your going to throw a pink disc you had better throw it well(ask John). Also, the stickers of Jusin Timberlake and Nick Lechey are illegal, I suggest you remove them from the rest of your discs.

1997 NC State Distance Champion
David McQuay
142 yards
173 gram
PINK CYCLONE

Now Dave that's thrown well!!!! I bet it also lacked the Timberlake stickers...maybe Janet will be on his new discs.

/msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gifBCDC meeting 2-9-2004 ,next monday,a week from today. At Sals. We need someone to run the monthly on the 14th. Important club decisions to be made concerning memberships,tournaments,hole sponsorship,and maintanence plans!!

I sure do wish Pete would respond to some of this taunting...

any of yall discrafters have any white x-wasps, white z-wildcats, or white z-talons?

Yanni, I have one Xwasp168 ,and a couple of clear Z wildcats.If you hold them over something white when you buy themyou might trick your mind into believing they are white.I have seen white X talons,mabey one Z,never seen white wildcats.I dont get out much. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

what weight are those z-wildcats?

Jeff,
I have a couple of white X-wasp's I could trade. They are 175-176. The Z-buzzz has made them a redundant disc.

Jeff,

I might have a few... send me an email and I can check for ya. Z-Wildcats are white/clear might have some white talons as well not sure. I got a stack of White wasps varying weights not many @ 177+


Mike

thanks discrafters, both of yall have been messaged

anyone got any first run challengers (X) ?

Dave, Chris, Steve, BCDC members,

Is the monthly this sat or next sat. Since Buckhorn is on the 14th, 15th did not know if you moved the date. The website has the 2003 calendar so I was not sure if you were moving the monthly or not.

Mike,

Robbie Dunn mentioned at the Kentwood Monthly that the Durham Monthly will still be held on the 14th.

One is 74,two @72

The monthly will go as usual,(second saturday) at Valley Springs for those that don't "do " PDGA events,or whatever reason.

thx dave.

I guess I will head to Buckhorn sat to help finish up work for the PDGA. 10am if anyone is intrested.

they are 174,172 ,172

So who's gone campin' with the 1 tag? Come out, come out wherever you are little fishy.

Dave,
Here is what I have come up with....
Let me know what you think.

http://www.activecurrent.com/images/BULLCITYDISCCLUB.jpg

m. ceph what up bro.......i be campin wit da number 1. i will be at valley sunday call me and we can see if you up to it. with the new baby my pdga schedule won't start until big valley. still gonna have 1 week-end day though..........whats up??????

thats a sweet logo thanks for the work

your avatar looks f ucked up... but hey you can definitely design a logo.

Just rolled in from a long day of disc golf in High Point at Mooky's Cup PDGA C-Tier tournament..... Today there was a full field of 90 advanced/amateur players with over 20 on the waiting list.... (the pros play tomorrow)... I happy to report that BCDC was represented well at today's event.

Finishing 1st in the large 51 person advanced field was John Sheffield... shooting a 5 under (49) in the first round from the short pads, and following it up with a strong 5 under (49) from the longer blue tees (pulling in $109 in prize plastic for his efforts). Robbie Dunn finished 1 stroke back with an 8 under (46) from the shorts and a 1 under (53) from the blues (coming away with $89 in plastic). Also, Chris & Miles Dunn both placed in the intermediate division and each won some plastic.

The big winner though was Steve Waters.... pulling in the big dough in the previous evenings card game :^)

L8R..... RD

just to let everyone know.....durham will still hold it's monthly saturday feb 14 start at 10 am 2 rounds at valley springs. if you cant make buckhorn come on out for the valentine's day massacre at the valley

true yall represented well in high point, lets see how it goes at the toughest course in Capital City....

Yeah but I payed for it Saturday. Chris are you playing at the monthly?

Chris, bring your #1 out on Sunday! That way Steve may have a chance to win it, then I would have a chance to take it from Steve!
-Steve, thanks for the pizza (medium) :eek:

yes doing the monthly.........you???????
crosstown looking like i can make it.......will know for sure tonight

KMH,

2 things:

1. 67

2. Lick me.

I don't know, the 67 is a one time thing; but the cephalus sounds like a lifetime of pain and suffering. I'll put my tounge to better use...

It's all a hustling ploy, I can't win everytime or you'll quit gambling with me. And don't worry, I'll never let you live down the 67!

g lineatus, ah, mr heathcock welcome to the aquarium

"Beware the orange hat.... or be the wearer of the orange hat"

Well after the BC Showdown I think you are the Top Cat Robbie

the orange hat is hot and uncomfortable

and UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is the monthly and doubles schedule for the BC/DC? I got to start practicing so that I can feel confident going to a tournament soon.

Mark,
The monthly tounaments are held on the second Saturday of each month. Here's the link:
http://www.mindspring.com/~bullcitydiscclub/2004.html

Sunday doubles at Valley Springs at 10:30. The ace pool should break $100 this week.

Thanks for the info... Will try to make it out there on Sunday, but 10:30 is early for me...

What is the monthly and doubles schedule for the BC/DC? I got to start practicing so that I can feel confident going to a tournament soon.



There is also a Saturday random doubles at Cornwallis that starts at 11:30am...... This one will most likely switch back to evenings once the time changes again......

What's up with those tees at Valley Springs? Are they going to be the new "am" tees? They are nice, but I definately prefer to play from the old tees during tourneys and such.

Oh I think someone carved their name into the wet cement at Cornwallis(hole 4 alt). I didn't notice, but I think Hole 10 Alt could use some cement too next time it is going to get poured

What's up with those tees at Valley Springs? Are they going to be the new "am" tees?



During the club meetings in Durham where there was discussion of redesigning Valley Springs (moving baskets, etc).... The decision was made to NOT do any major redesign to the course, but to add alternate tees on most holes and add alternate baskets on a couple of holes. There will basically be 3 sets of pads at VS..... Call them what you want, but there will be the regular pads, longer pads and shorter pads... I have a feeling the regular pads will be used at the Durham monthlies, while the Pros will occaisionally have a go from the longs.... The shorter pads are being put in to allow golfers who may be threatened by the regular pads at VS.... an opportunity to play a shorter course like Cornwallis.... For PDGA events, you'll most likely see the regular tees used, until there are pads in place for the longer alts...... As they say, variety is the spice of life :^)

yeah, I was there for the walkthrough for the new holes and I knew that some people were against it. I just didn't know they were going to install shorter pads instead.

Some of the shorter pads though, make holes too easy.

Again there are longer & shorter pads being put in.... Although I haven't played the shorter ones, they do appear to make the course easier (which was the idea).... Of course the longer pads are going to make it quite a bit more difficult..... The beautiful part is that in casual rounds, you get the choice of what you want to play......

The biggest difference in the short/long alts is that it's a lot easier to add short pads, since there's usually not much that needs to be done other than putting in the markers/pads. With the longer pads and alt baskets, there is some clearing involved which does take more time... and in some cases requires approval from Parks & Recs..... Also the people involved with the shorts (Ed K & others) have invested a lot of time (and their own money) in getting these pads in place. Guess it's time for another volunteer day at VS to work on the longs....

On to Cornwallis.... Robbie Crownover's son is working on concrete alt pads at Cornwallis as part of a Scout project. If you see him out there working.... don't forget to thank him for his efforts.

I just wanted to express a little concern on the location of the long pin for hole 17. To me it seemed to be a little close to the tee pad of hole 18. I would suggest moving it down the hill some (assuming that is still park land) or shortening the hole some. It isn't a real big issue, but could become one should that placement ever be used for a tournament (as there is usually a back up on 18's tee).

Mark,
I was concerned about that as well. However, anytime we're playing those alts, the new tee on 18 will come into play. Stand on 18's tee looking away from hole 17. Follow the green tape down the hill. It's going to be frightful...

I cringed everytime I saw the green tape... lot of tight tunnels to follow once you reach the regular green.

Unfortunately I'll be on a plane to Atlanta on Sunday so I won't be at the kickoff....

RD

Yeah I would definitely rather play the original pads at Valley.. :D

Great course,and I was way over their heads,Like twenty feet!!! Could some one else give their opinion of Cornwallis Alternate Course???We would Love to hear from you!!! Club Members Email me if you want to get in the BVC,I need confirmed names, PDGA numbers,division.If you will see me this week,Piedmont random doubles,I would rather get it in hand. Remember ,I'm not going to put you down on the list till I get something in writing. Deuce on people!!! Dave.



I don't get out to durham much anymore that I don't work out there but there is definatly one thing that cornwallis great for. My wife and I have had some great times playing doubles out there (or singles). It's a great beginner course, especially for women. She had her first back to back birdies out there.

The alternate course is definatly an improvement given the space you've got to work with out there.

That's why they are also putting in longer pads

oh god now the kids are the message board....no one tell Miles or the Grady Kids about it

Why not tell Miles or the Grady kids?? :confused:

Rob,

I'm pretty sure it's $10 or $11 for Open in Durham monthlies, plus $1 for the ace pool. I'm not sure whether I will be at Cornwallis on Saturday, but I will be at UNC provided that my entry form gets there before the field fills.

Drew

yeah yhanni, u always need another win in ADV. you mullet bagger

I need someone who is willing and able to garner a chain at UNC to help me out. There are a lot of down trees on holes 11, 12, 13, and 14. Looking to get the trees that are already cut down or fallen down to be sawed into smaller more managable pieces. If you are willing to help, send me a message.

Had a blast this weekend at Cornwallis.....you guys have a good thing going in Durham

Enjoyed playing w/ Robbie and Shef both days, and playing w/ Dave is always a blast

big valley coming soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've already posted about this on the Team Fish thread, but i wanted to get the word out to all the BCDC people. Disc golfers for cancer is a 24 hour DG marathon, similar to Relay for Life. There's a link from the PDGA home page. I'd like to have the event in Durham (I was thinking Valley), but i'd need help. If anyone from the BCDC would be willing to help me, please let me know. The event doesn't have to be 24 straight hours, it can be 12 hours over 2 todays, so i was thinking about doing it over a weekend. This is where i'd need help. I don't know if i can get off work to be there on saturday, so i'd need someone there to run it. If i get enough interest, i'll get more info from the national organizer. So if you want to play some DG to help a good cause and get a sweet players pack, let me know.

bc/dc should be able to help...monthly this week-end and meeting mon night, should have an answer soon!!!!!!!!

Peidmont dubs at cornhollio tomorrow....whos there besides me?

It depends on the weekend, but I'm potentially interested in helping with the cancer benefit tournament, if we have it in the Triangle area.

G'day guys my name is Chris Himing and I am putting all this together. If one of you emails me your address I will put some posters and info in the mail today.

If anyone has any questions please let me know.

Thanks
Chris

Peidmont dubs at cornhollio tomorrow....whos there besides me?



The Dunn-asty will be there in full force.....

Yesterday at breakfast, Chris said he was due an ace since he only has one and it's been quite a while since he hit it... Last night we played the WilBros weekly random doubles at Cornwallis and not only did he ace hole #8 to take the $36 ace pool.... but his team shot 15 down to take the victory (snapping my streak at 3 wins straight).....

The Dunn-asty will be there in full force.....



I'll take Robbie D right now - we need revenge after our great showing of doubles at Tarheel


not only did he ace hole #8 to take the $36 ace pool



Well I'm glad he aced the best disc golf hole in the area

I'll be there. I've never played the shorts at Cornwallis. Should be fun.

MONTHLY AT VALLEY THIS SAT.
for more info see team fish thread.

who started this subject, MtL? how long was everyone gonna let "Piedmont" go on misspelled? where's felix or hyzer when you need them?

who won the PRD last night anyways? Dunn?

Dunn and P-nut. -13 from the alts.

yeah there were some good teams last night - Peanut and Dunn, Joe Who and Steve Waters

-8 and everything better cashed - I was kinda mad, I wanted to play ace run from the shorts

I played ace run from the alts.

Get ready for the Big Valley Challenge by playing in Durham's Monthly at Valley Springs this Saturday. As usual, there will be two rounds played and the first round starts promptly at 11am.

Not to mention it will give you an opportunity to check out the Swedish Spinna in all it's glory.....

Now who's takin' the pro cash tomorrow?

in reference to the question, and i quote. "who's takin' the pro cash tommorrow?" see previous team fish thread post or read below.

check it.......bring the snap and the cash to donate to T.Fluv

i think this will illuminate, and at the same time, clerify the answer to the question posed by B.Marinus.

also check the team fish thread for my latest crumpalicious citrification(prison vocabulary) on the life and times of T.Fluv aka the sweddish spinna 2 d's for double dose and 2 n's for naughty naughty.....also known as, in the corporation street sector, THE SWEDDISH PIMP 2 d's for double dose.
