There is currently a new 18 hole course being installed in Greenville, NC. This is going to be a public course and involves the Recreation and Parks Dept of Greenville and the newly formed Greenville Disc Golf club. Work has all ready begun on the course. If anyone knows the course that is all ready in Greenville at ECU, the know it is a short course, not that anything is wrong with this. The main reasons we need this new course is the amount of traffic on the ECU course, the type of course and the public has no type of authority with the course since it is owned by the university. The new course will have 2 tee pads on most of the holes (14) and they will be cement pads along with tee signs. The Rec/Parks dept has been very very cooperative with the club and has done all we have asked so far. The biggest issue we will have to contend with is raising the money for the course. We are going about this by offering sponsorships on the holes. The tee signs will have the company's or person's name on half of it(the signs are 12 x 18). When a hole is sponsored, that will cover the cost of basket, tee and tee sign. Another nice thing is we will be a non-profit orginization soon so that should set well with potential sponsors.
This is a learning project for all those involved but things so far are going well and problems that come up are being solved. Hopefully by the end of 2004, we can have monthly's and other tourneys out there and in 2005 have a weekend event. If anyone is interested or has advice or even just wants to chat about the course, please feel free to respond to this or email me at [email protected] Have a good day and a better round.

Way to go!! Keep up the good work!

Does the course or park have a name yet?

Would you please post directions to the course?

As soon as the course is open I assume that you will add the info to the PDGA Directory.

For me personally, I'm on a quest to play every course in NC. To date I've played every course installed before 2004, but I have to get to 4 which were all installed in 2004.

Keep us posted, and you can email if you want at [email protected]

As far as I know, there are poles in the ground for the course, and I believe that there is still a good amount of work to be done on the course. But, I know that both the Parks and Rec and the club has put in a serious number of man hours clearing a lot of the course since the last time I was there.

The course should be good one with a mix of wooded, open, and wooded open holes. Should have a few holes (such as "Swiss Cheese") that offer shots that I haven't seen or aren't offered at a lot of courses.

I can't give exact directions (as I have only been there once), but I know it is across the Green Street bridge on the left.

Hole sposorships, How much money?

For a man of your worth, a lot. :D

You still thinking of Snoop for the baby's name right?

I'd go with MTL.

you guys are too funny!
But seriously, Mr.Faison, can somebody give me hole sponsorship info?

Yeah Scott, the numbers are not fixed but we think that a partial hole sponsorship ranges from 125-250 and a full sponsorship will be about 500. That would include the tee(s), tee sign and basket. Yeah its a high price but you know how much disc golf stuff runs. Park and Rec is all about having the best we can get. As far as what Mark posted, he was right as far as what has happen. I am going to try and keep the course marked until the baskets and tees go in so that way people can at least get a feel for it and play is an an object. If you want directions I can post them later or email them to whoever wants them. Yes, the course will be on the directory once it is "officially" open and playable. Once again Parks and Recs wants it done right and they want to have sort of a grand opening event for the course (not like a tourney more of a fun day). Any other things you want to ask just post here and I will try to answer them or im sure an answer can be posted here.

Scotty, just wondering what was up with a GVDG website. Prob a little premature right now, but just checking. And also when's the next work day/meeting, pres?

grateful wop

Hey Tony, the web site is going to happen. I need to sit down and discuss and design with Richard Beck and Nolan since they are the ones that have the domain name and the space to host the web site. Also both of them also have web design experience so that is sweet. Nolan was saying that we might be able to set up email addresses for the site and golfers so that would be good, just have to see if we can. We actually need to do this soon since the web site will be tied in to sponsorship by having a page that list the sponsors and has links to their web sites. The address more than likely will be greenvillediscgolf.com or something very similar.
As far as the next work day or meeting, we need to talk to Parks and Rec and see if they can do some work now that we cleared those areas. As soon as we find out something we will let people know. Also we need to have a meeting to finalize the Candy Fund Raiser disc that we are going to get. I am going to talk to Innova again to today also about baskets. Hopefully we will have some final answers by next Monday at doubles. See ya at the course, and I am off to West Virginia to see my better half.

Does this course have a name yet?

Yes, the park has a name, but I don't know what it is and Scotty is in West Virginia.

Did a little research for you Lowe...

The name of the park is West Meadowbrook Park.

If you go to http://ci.greenville.nc.us/ you can find very limited and I do mean limited information about the park by searching around on the site. It probably isn't much help, but thought that I might share since Scotty is MIA.

I just did some looking of my own on that website at the various parks. There are a handful of parks that seem to be very large. Perhaps if all goes well with the current course under works, Greenville could have another couple of courses within the next 5-10 years.

After growing up playing ECU's course, it is just hard to phathom Greenville actually being a place playing a "real" disc golf course and then driving to another "real" disc golf course.

Thanks for posting the information for me Mark while I was MIA. Greenville does have some other parks that could be future courses and also some land that is availible to them that are not yet designated for anything specific yet. Parks and Rec also knows that in the future we could want to pursue the installation of another public course, but for now we are concentrating and working on making this first course a reality. Stew and I have a meeting on Tueday with Parks again about getting some additional work from them in some of the rougher areas. These are the areas that we have worked on to remove debris and trash to make it possible for them to bushhog. I will post here and inform of how the meeting went and what areas were covered. Last time we had a meeting with them they were very quick to repsond and get done what we had asked them. They have been so cooperating and effecient in working with. Also I will post the website that I know that has information about the parks in Greenville so others can look and see, but off hand I can not remember the site name. See everyone at doubles on Monday!

ECU is also looking to put up another course.

They are putting up a new complex with soccer fields and inturmural fields. They also have contacted Harold Duval about designing a course in the complex. Also, rumors have been flying around that the current ECU course will be taken out and made into a parking lot. Nothing is offical about this, but here is what I have been told, in the order that thet seem to think will happen.

1. The new course will be ready in 2007, and at that time the current course will be taken out.
2. The new course will be ready in 2007, and the current course will stay there.
3. The current course will be left there, no new course
4. The current course will be taken out, no new course.

The ECU course has been rumored to be a parking lot ever since I started playing there ... in 1995. I will believe when I see it. I believe the outside holes to be too important to the tailgaiters... Who wants to tailgate in a parking lot, when it was a grass field?

anyone playing doubles in the storm? should be lots of fun

: ) :

We had another meeting today with Parks at the site and things went well. They are going to do some more work for us in the harder areas and some of the weed killing. We asked about spray for the poison ivy and they said that they could do that along with getting rid of the ground bees that Tony found. A few things we do need to do is move some of the limbs out of the way on hole 4 basket area so they can bushhog, trim some of the smaller stumps on holes 8-9 so they don't get a flat tire while trying to bushhog that also, and move the tree in 12's fairway that is laying across. Once we do that, these areas will be ready to mow down to nothing and actually giving us a fairway. They will be going back out to keep cutting what they have all ready cleared so that we don't have growth coming back and taking over what we have done. Eventually parks would like to see grass growing in the areas that the weeds are in. Overall, they are very happy with what we have done and what we plan to do. One thing the local golfers will like, they will put out as many trashcans as we like once the course is in!!
We looked at potential standing water areas today and they do not look like they will be as bad as we thought. The woods (8-10) seem to be doing ok with all this rain.
I will post more later, but for now I have been called to play Socom II.

Hey, just a quick note. There will be a workday this Saturday, August 14 starting about 9:30 AM. If you can make it please do, if not think about those who are working lol.

Scotty Faison....Mark Southard.... jammin' on HALO and SOCOM II? I just got rid of my PS2 so I can try to get my disc golf game back. That stuff is dangerous. :D
Tighten up, fellas.
Seriously... Lets throw sometime. The good old days must return.
I think I'm the only one with my Am PDGA status intact, though. (I've been playing pro). That should show you what CPU games will do to you. I'm a living example. I slay at SOCOM, Vice City, and Baldurs Gate, but can't shoot under par anymore!!! :D
Peace out, fellas. :cool:

I did not know you could shoot under par.....LOL

:D :eek: :D :eek: :D

Just wondeirng what the condition of the course. is. How bad has it been hit by Chuckles?

Ok..2 Things. The course survived Charley well except for some areas were flooded. The second news is the CFR disc are in. Just get in contact with me or any club members if you would like to purchase any to help support our club and new course. Thanks.

CFR discs??? What kind? Scotty hopefully I'll be out at doubles monday. Maybe we can get together earlier in the day and you can show me around the new course. I will also have the #8 Gvegas tag if anyone wants to try to take it.

dang scotty that was fast. put aside an eagle and a starfire for max

: ) :

Max..sure just give me a call at the numbers in the email.
Eddie..we have Classic Rocs(25), Glow TBird(5), Glow TL(5),
Glow Banshee(5), Glow Eagle(5), and Starfires(5). Get them while ya can with this one time only stamp on them. Only 18 days left in my single life. I am actually excited.

went out to the new course today and it looks like its gonna be a pretty cool shots - seems to have no fluky holes and lots of shots required

Just a quick update. The CFR's are going quickly so get them while you can. Thaks to all those who have bought them. Also we have our tax ID number and have opened our club checking account. We weill begin searching for sponsors soon. Ten more days and I am batchelor no more!

Work day - thursday - 6 PM - come hang out with MTL

What is the condition of the course? 50% cleared, 75% cleared, 90% cleared? Are there any problem child holes? I am thinking about visiting the course this weekend since I have to go to G-vegas for a wedding. Would like to know what to expect.

You won't fimd your way around with having someone show you.

I beg to differ...

I went out to the course with Scotty and made suggestions prior to his proposal to city parks and rec. I was just curious to see the progress of the course. Sounds like you guys are close to buying a basket or two and was just wondering if the course was close to being in shape to receive those baskets. Also, whether or not I should bring my discs with me to throw a few holes. However, considering trunk space or lack there of I think that the discs will remain here in Charlotte.

Ok Been a while but a qucik update. The CFR's are almost all gone but we have a few left. We are having weekly workdays on Thursday for those that can mame it. These are not huge labor days but a chance to get some work done on specific areas. We should be having a big workday on a weekend soon and when it is announced we will post it. The quest for sponsorships will begin very soon so let me know if you have any ideas of groups or people that might like to be a part of this. Not much else to report new but I will as it happens. Hope to see a lot of people at the ECU Tourney.

Workdays still on Thursdays..thanks to those who came last week. We will have a club meeting very soon. Details to foloow. Check here, email or with me.

hey scotty you should try to make a living out of being a caddy.

sure as hell helped Princess out on that final hole.

Hippie showed me a design for GVDG's with the GV being the chains and DG being the basket. looked freakin awesome.

have we found a design for the club or anything cause that would be awesome.

see ya at doubles.

: ) :

Yes, Adam showed me the design and I think its cool and I am sure we could use it for something. We have not had a final design becasue I want as many people to get involved as we can. That way we can have designs for events that we can use and have desgins for the club. And PJ even paid me a whole 50 cents to caddy. At this rate I can retire when I am 118..sweet.

workday saturday 10-2 and then we are hoping to play it afterwards, bring your baskets!

Yep..just what he said. I am not sure how many holes we will have baskets for or will have playable but I think a good number of them. I will contact Parks and Rec and see if they can recut the grass on some of the holes that have grown up some due to the weather. We should be able to play 1,2,3,maybe 4 with a shorter pin placement,5,6,7. Holes 8-10 depend on work and ground conditions since we know they were prone to flood(something we are in the process of making a plan to fix). Hole 11 depends on the work done on the basket area but should be ok. Hole 12 needs a lot of work so I am doubting it. Hole 13 just needs the fairway mowed. Hole 14 just needs basket area mowed and 15 needs to be mowed. Hole 16 is the other hole that needs a lot of work. Holes 17 and 18 need mowing. So, if Parks can cut the grass we will have a lot to look foward to. We will also use some of that time as a club meeting to discuss some things. So bring a basket and bring some friends. If enough people want we can turn it into a doubles and I will get the disc and bring them out and treat it like a mini doubles. Any questions just email me or call or contact a club member.

We have a suprise announcement for all those who come out Saturday. I will post it after those in the club find out!

d:)mn you scotty, now my brain will hurt till saturday wanting to know what the announcement is

: ) :

Hahaha..go get the Star Wars DVD set..that will ease the pain. I picked up mine today and I am wating for Battlefront to come out on Thursday. And no the suprise isn't Rob has a new color pair of Panties.

And no the suprise isn't Rob has a new color pair of Panties.


:mad:


Is it that he has switched over to thongs? :p

And no the suprise isn't Rob has a new color pair of Panties.


:mad:


Is it that he has switched over to thongs? :p

:mad:

Can't hand out strokes now MTL. I knew you would switch to thongs.

So it's true??!!!

Ok..the secret is out. Not only has Rob switched to thongs, he has a whole line of lingerie coming out. The Ms MTL line will be appearing in stores soon. It is aimed at the golfer who is manly, but who wants to feel the soft side of a bogey! Feeling good has never been this easy.

yeah

Unveiling secrets is so much fun. :eek: :D ;) Must be a line of products for the larger woman. :D ;)

you guys are cracking me up :mad:

Unveiling secrets :D ;)



Is this the name of the product line, or the store? Located next to Victorias Secrets :D

Must be a line of products for the larger woman. :D ;)



I heard (on an inside tip) that the line was for bears and other large, hairy mammals. :eek:

So I was going through all the threads and I saw new course in Greenville. And I was like hey, I live there, let me check it out. And all I see is people bashing me, not talking about the new course in Greenville.........intresting

Scotty started it.

I did not start it..Rob did when he posed for the picture. And were no bashing..we love our little Robbie. Just a question, is your lingerie line all white like your disc or do you have it in some sexier colors?

no, it's all white but turns yellow with time
: ) :

Ok..that was sort of gross..even for me..not sure I want to go there. But yet strangely funny. Im torn whether to laugh or cry...

Try both they seem to work very well... ;) :p :eek: :D

Is that like trying to drink milk and laugh at the same time? I use to hate that..made my nose burn.

I thought the underwear line featured a brown racing stripe. On the inside. Front to back. :o

It's Saturday. Post the surprise already. Geez.

OK back to disc golf..the workday went great. Thanks to all those who made it out there! We got a lot done and then had a great time playing the course. Parks and rec did cut the grass like we asked and even bush hogged some more for us so things are running smooth there. By playing the course with the temp baskets, we were able to see better how the course flows and also make some tee pad adjustments. Overall things went great. Also I had a digital camera with me and will be looking at the pics later and posting them to my webpage on AOL. When I get them posted I will post the adddress here. Ok need food..must eat and watch football..drinks needed..post more later.

good job failing to tell everyone what the surprise was.

: ) :

the course will probally have baskets by the end of october

Hole pics up anytime soon? I am curious to see how close the course is to being in shape.

OK..the suprise is what Mills said but I will elaborate. We are going to have our baskets by mid October. I will be picking up the baskets at the USDGC from Innova. They are allowing us to pick the baskets up earlier than we had planned and they are working with us on the financial end. We decided also to put the baskets in first so that the course can be playable..this will help wear down some more of the areas that need clearing a little more. The tee pads will come next then the tee signs last. As soon as the baskets start making their way into the ground I will post and let everyone know. To be honest, having the baskets this soon would not be possible without the help and support from the people at Innova.

Ok go to:
Greenville disc golf (http://hometown.aol.com/scottyno2/gvdg.html)
Here you can see pictures from the workday and the holes. Not all of the holes have pictures yet and I will work on that. As a hole changes I will try and update the picture. And this is not the official GVDG web site, just soemthing I threw together to show the course as it develops.

Thanks Scotty. The course looks good. Keep it up Gville DGers. I wish I was there to help you guys. Can't wait to play the course.

E.OG

:eek:Wow! I can't wait to play! It appears to have a variety of open & wooded holes, I like that! Keep up the good work. If the Knapps can do anything let us know. See ya @ the USDGC.

Yes it does have a mix of shots. Also sometimes pictures don't really show the hole well. There are a few that are rougher than they appear and some that are all but done. As soon as I get back from West Virginia, I will get out there and do some measuring of the holes and post them with pictures on the pages that are up.

Put each of your minions in charge of a hole until you get back... That way a little bit of work will get done while you are gone.

In the group picture it looks like Princess just nailed Dave in the nads.

: ) :

Yes there is plenty of Poison Ivy on the course right now.

: ) :

Hey guys. Just got my account. Scotty: Tony and I may be in Rock Hill during the USDGC, so we can help with manual labor. Robert: your NEVER going to live down the panty thing, so just give up.

Are you saying that your body is cover in a rash?

If so, I feel your pain. And probably won't play ECU anytime soon.

im defenitely not mark. im not a panzy thats scared of a little weed on the ground.........riiiight. course has no problem at all man. just a little TRIM work and ittl be up and runnin without a problem. and mtl.....panties will stay with you longer than mtl will :eek:

....if we had played a third round im sure it would have been better than someone's past 2 pdga's third rounds :eek:



WOW, look who's talking...

Looks like GVDG needs a club thread... Start one on the other clubs thread.

booooooooooo

all the smack talking stopped

(post number 1700 :D)

sorry mtl.....never been a long winded person

but the lungs do seem to be opening up......

scotty, once you get the baskets in...ill go out and play with you and the first hole i ace out there...ill put up $500 to sponsor that hole. if its already sponsored ill just pick another one. so if you keep me out there....thats one hole completed.

Scotty, make a temp tee pad that is only 30 feet away... wait.. make that 10 feet so he has a chance :o

so should i set some rules up for that ace since i have a pdga official tuning in?? any normal tee pad, long or short, if i ace the shot then i sponsor the hole. ill even throw in a bonus....if i black ace a hole ill sponsor one too. ill keep the 500 in a special account so when the time comes it will be ready. i need to challenge you anyways because we never got to finish the round. 8 downs with three holes remaining....im game when you get the baskets in!

nice Mills.

hey jon. what if i hit an ace will you get my hole to. rolling on the floor lol.......ps my time is comming

hey jon. what if i hit an ace will get my hole to. rolling on the floor lol.......ps my time is comming



Holy crap Rob, I think we have someone with worse typing skillz than you! I never thought I would say that.

hey eddie f__k you Biggs

I have nothing to do with this. Please leave me out of it.

Leave you out of what?

well it's obvious based on Biggs' post that you kinda ****** him off. And I don't want anything to do with it.

sorry stew i could not make it out there today. if there is a work day this weekend ill be there for sure. i have monday off of work for a holiday so im up for anything. if we all meet out there with our own baskets then we can do another round like the other weekend. anyone who wants to play i have a basket and if we need to we can carry my skill shot around just to play the whole course.

well it's obvious based on Biggs' post that you kinda ****** him off. And I don't want anything to do with it.



I was just kidding around with HIM. YOU never had anything to do with it in the first place.

WOW..this board came alive while I was gone LOL. Mills, I will take you up on your offer and your challenge when the baskets get in. Just checking in, back in West Virginia, but will be home soon. The 3 Rivers series has WMP listed on its schedule for next year starting in January so thats a goal for the club. Sponsorship packages will be done when I get back and Stew and I have talked about some meetings we need to do. Also there will be some kind of club meeting next week so be ready.

Looking forward to playing this new course. My wife has still not been to Greenville yet and this would be a good excuse to make the trip.

Whatever Mouth of the South

I am going to take up some stock in ear plugs.

hey now - you will like what I had to say about you on Saturday

money is not an issue. when i get to play for money....charity baby. or maybe ill sponsor you!

WORKDAY..Saturday..October 23..putting the sleeves in for the baskets..meet at Pygmy Man's house between 9-9:30 AM. After 10 AM go to the course. Try and make it to Pygmy's house..need major help loading the supplies for the cement. Meeting with Parks and Rec went great..they are providing the cement for the baskets and we believe for the tees also. They are also allowing us to use an auger to drill the holes for the baskets so that saves time and energy. Pin placements have been set..a few tee pads are still being decided for their exact location..also a few "tourney pin locations" have been looked at for use to make a more challenging course in a 4th round type thing. Also, potentail sponsors can contact anyone in the club to find out more. Keep up the god work club.

Keep up the god work club.


You really think a lot of the club. Maybe they could make me 3 inches taller and able to throw 500 feet.

HAHA..GOOD WORK club..is that better??
I have been taking typing classes at MTL's school of typing.

Yeah, MTL has some greats quotes. I still can't believe he is a communications major. I guess, it's not how well you type, but how loud you type it.

amen

all hail the disc golf gods

My first post...hmmm...hello to all my fellow greentown golfers, i miss playing on the east side of the state. Here in Asheville, enjoying my birthday in fine style, and i figured, what better time to post my first message. Guess i'll be seeing most of you guys in jacksonville, but for those unable to attend, you know i'm never gone for too long, not that you guys are too worried. Scotty, you are the man for making the basket deal happen. Can't wait for the first round on the new, premiere course in eastern nc. Keep up the good work, and know that i'm always willing to help when i'm in town. See you kids soon, and much respect...
Mus, see you in a few hours. I hope you brought your drinking shoes.

Oooooohhhhh Ssssshhhhhh111111tttttt!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRETTY LITTLE S-MAN!!!! :D:D
Can't wait to take your tag in Ashville.

I hope you brought your drinking shoes.


I ain't left yet, but I won't forget 'em! :cool:

To everyone going to the workday tomorrow....I hope ya'll don't run into any snags, and sorry I couldn't make it. I gotta go to Ashville and drink, since Sean isn't coming to town the weekend of his birthday. I know you guys will get the job done in no time.

Countdown to arrival in Ashville has commenced.

leave it to a slick pink panty wearer to f-up names

when you have 1768 posts, I will listen to your opinion

so i guess you only listen to mark southard cuz he doesnt have much else to do either but post on the message board........had an awesome time saturday morning putting the sleves in for the baskets. we knocked them out in no time at all......had a new face or two out there and this greenville dg club knows the meaning of team work.....i cant wait for this course to be all set up.....scotty......depending on what you want to do with the baskets...ill go on and sponsor a hole to help get all the baskets up.....i know ill eventually ace one out there so i might as well just go on and sponsor a hole.

you had an awesome time saturday? it was fun and all but lets not get to crazy. maybe i missed all the fun because i was walking to slow.

you know half a barrel of concrete on your pants will do that. *thanks jody*

: ) :

Good to hear there was a lot of hard work going on. I wish I could help do something, but I'm moving a little slower these days :(.

hey mo....i guess you know how mtl feels now :eek:

hey mo....i guess you know how mtl feels now :eek:

He had fun cuz he was playing catch, while we poured cement.

And it was just alittle splash, you were at the wrong end of the wheel barrow(sp?)

i helped out for some of the holes. yanked some vineage down. at least i showed up!

I'm just messing with ya. I'm ready to put some chains up and play

WOW.I have heard great things about you guys out at the workday. I am so proud of all this club has done. Wish I could have been there but some of you folks know what I am going through right now and know it is hectic lol. Keep up the good work and I will see everyone at the 3 rivers on Sunday. Also we need to set up a monthly for November and December and then decide what weekend we want our monthlies to fall on during the 2005 year. Once we know more we will let everyone know. Thanks again for all the hard work. See ya soon.

I will be in town Nov 19-21; will the course be in the ground by then? I would like to try it out while I am there.

no one wants you around here

My mommy begs to differ. :p

i think he ment around anyone

Marky..you might have a good chance of playing..just have to see what the decision is about when baskets go in. When the answer comes down you will see a post..so think happy thoughts and maybe it will happen. And I have to say Greenville Disc Golfers are the new in hip crowd..so join them..

so can mark be like the redheaded step child to our new hip club....its always been me....so can we PLEASE change for one time and let mark be the one!!!!!!!!

Mark was there first, so you will always be the Red headed Step child. :eek:

Yep Mark was the first redhead child of the corn here in G Vegas..he was here before the skinny me.

Sweet news..baskets are going in the ground on Saturday. If you can help please do..and this is the easy part since the sleeves have all ready been put in the ground. Pygmy has offered free ham biscuits to those who show up at his house around 10:30 AM to help load up the baskets into the trucks. This is not the hardest work..trust me since MTL and me did it ourselves in Rock Hill. If you can't make it to his place, meet at the course at 11 AM or any times after. Hopefully with enough people, the course can be played after the baskets are put up. See you soon and hopefully enough people will show up Saturday.

More sweet news..first "unofficial monthly" will be November 14. This is a Saturday and tee times and entry fees have not been decided yet. Once they are more will be posted. Tee pads are natural for now and not sure of the exact date that the concrete pads are going in so be prepared for natural. Also remember that this course is still in progress so forgive our mess..hopefully more will be done by this date. Any questions ask, and look for more info once decided.

come on guys.....cut me some slack. get mark out there and we can play one on one to see who will be the redheaded step child of the greenville disc golf club. and scotty....once the baskets are up.......im gonna ace run every hole that can be aced from the short pads until i get one and then ill have a check for 500 for the club.

shut your pie hole schweb.....your starting to remind me of mtl :eek:

Even more sweet news..and yes the post count keeps going up :) December 4, 2004.... Another "unofficial monthly" at the course followed by the year end shindig at my clubhouse that night. Once again when more info about the monthly is up I will post it. Also the same thing for the get together. Anyone is welcome to come to either or both events. So play golf in the morning and afternoon, then at night come eat and drink my food and take home my plastic..if you can. Can't you feel the holiday spirit coming. I hope all this works and everyone can come and enjoy. Just please bear with us, we have never done this before..well at least we haven't admitted to it. Cya!

Why do ya goTTa keep having the shindig on the same weekend as The Charleston Classic.

EXACTLY what I told him schweb

I'll be damned, Scotty, you are working fast. I've been thinking about making the return trip this weekend to enjoy another ECU halloween, but wasn't really sure until I found that the baskets are going in on sat. You'll have my help for sure.

Also, I'm pleased to announce that myself, and a few of my associates have decided to sponsor a hole in the name of the new found conglomeration, <font color="green"> </font> EasyGreens Inc. <font color="black"> </font> (feat. Slowrollas and Team Magic).
Looking forward to my first three rivers in a while, and it's on halloween...got to rock a costume. That would be hilarious if everyone dressed up... what are you going to be MTL? random....see you kids saturday.

Sounds like this weekend is going to be f-ing awesome!!!
I'll be there Sat. morning, but I have to work at 3:00, so I probably can't play a round afterwards :(
As far as 3 rivers goes, bring the pain sean. Dressing up would be awesome, and make things a little interesting.
S-man...call me when you get to town, I'm working but this'll be the first time you've been in G-vegas as a legal drinker...I brought my shoes last weekend, now it's your turn!

OK a few responses..Sorry about your luck Schweb..one of those things..only weekend in December I have open..the next weekend is my time with my wifes family for the holidays then after that all the college kiddies are gone and we can't leave them out...MTL..tsk tsk..we all ready had this talk...Sean..that so sweet that you and your posse are going to sponsor..and thanks for the compliment, but you also need to thank all the GVDGers since they are the reason everything is going so fast and kicking butt. Im just a messenger and a worker for the cause. And the idea of a costumed 3 rivers sounds fun..might have to try that if I get back in time Saturday to come up with something.

I'll be in town to help put the baskets in. Can't wait to see the course for the first time. DEP4LIFE! :D

Due to my writing job, I have to attend the basketball game tomorrow at 12:30 and my family is coming in for the football game, so I can't be out there - ya'll have fun!

DEP4LIFE
say word son!

Ok..I am so stoked about all that is going on. I will try and get those pics up for the holes and tees we are missing on the temp site. Also might take new ones since the baskets are in. Another thing is I will try and get some distances up and posted also. Pygmy is working on marking the tee areas and so I will also try to help him with that. There are a lot of people working hard to try and do this right and make it the best for those involved. Any feedback, good or bad, is welcome..just be patient with us:)

****, I take a "break" and Gville has a new course and Scottie is married :eek:

Ill be back out on the course soon, Ive been playing just took a break from tournaments, etc...

Steve, from gville, living in raleigh...

The new course is officially in the ground. We had about 20 peeps out today to put the baskets in and play some golf.

Looking forward to checking out the course when Im home for Thanksgiving.

btw, Scottie, check ur pms..

One correction..the November date should be the 13th..like I said more will be posted when more is decided..welcome back Steve-O...and the course is almost official ;)..we still need signs and tee pads and a grand opening and a pony..well the pony is suppose to be for me from Santa..but thats another round of therapy..

That would be hilarious if everyone dressed up... what are you going to be MTL?

MTL's going as the Mouth that Ate G-vegas. Either that or one of these (http://www.quikrete.com/catalog/CommercialGradeSand.html). :p

my official comment on that...


"No comment"

no he's going to wear a fat suit with a cape and call himself Mr. Proportional

: ) :

I would like to congratulate GVDG's own Little Scotty Faison on setting the Meadowbrook course record at -12, beating out Scwebby by 1 stroke for the #1 GVDG bag tag, also for accomplishing the first ACE on hole #12, you will go down as the first ace, which is fitting being the new course was your idea to start, thanks for all the hard work the GVDG members put in to make this course happen, but we still got a lot to do, see yall at FDGC, which ought to be a good time, the Knapps never let down

Thanks to everyone that has been a part of making this a reality..a public course in Greenville. We are not done yet, but we have done a lot in a short amount of time and it is because of the hard work of so many people. It looks so nice out there to see baskets and tee markers in the ground. Keep it up golfers, the best is still yet to come.

Ok..have a few post to make..just breaking them up to make easier to read. Jody and I talked and we are going to try something new. GVDG "unnoficial monthly" is Nov 13 and 3 Rivers is Nov 14. Both will be at "The Meadow" (what the cool kids call the new course..and it sounds better when you say it like Cartman) and will each be seperate events. The thing new will be that there will be a combined event too. Anyone that is playing both days can pay $5 more and compete for an overall trophy in their division. The rest of the money that is raised will go the club. The scores from both days will be counted together just as if it was a 2 day tournament. Sounds fun so come out. Even if you can only make one day feel free to come and enjoy. Much thanks to Jody for this great idea and if anyone has complaints about it..just blame me LOL

Much to do..little time..must measure holes, set tee pads areas, take pictures, make park map, prepare for monthly,kill weeds, talk to Parks and thanks them and ask them to do more. Keep playing golfers, it was great to see people out there today. Thanks to Hoffmann and Schweb for coming out and playing..your advice was very helpful. I might have the course record for now..but Schweb has the roller record at -8...that is more impressive to me. MTL gets the record for disc caught in highest vines...and if was off a kick off a tree about eye level and ened up 15 ft high. Two words about the ace....Sweet Karma ;)

. I might have the course record for now..but Schweb has the roller record at -8...that is more impressive to me.



I shot -9 throwing air shots - so -8 throwing rollers is ok I guess.

He was trying to par everything and got ****** everytime he hit a putt for 2

I will set the roller record before the end of the year - and I'm challenging his roller record, he did not throw rollers on 1 2 3 or 4

Aren't those holes gimme birdies with rollers?

Good Job GVDG!

I am assuming that all the holes are put in and just need cement poured.

Hey Scotty,

9.5?

:eek: :) :D

: ) :

Had a great time this weekend helping with the baskets and playing the new course. Its times like this that make me wish I was still in gville. Its awesome to see such dedication. I also wanna thank Jody for running another great 3 Rivers. I was happy with my pro debut. The #2 tag will be at the Knapps tourney. Looking forward to seeing you guys out there!

E.OG

Just so you know i should really be writing my history paper that is due tomorrow, but it can wait.

Just got called over to a design company in greenville to fix some of their computers. So i started looking around and noticed a site map for the North Campus Site. Thats the land ECU got and are planning on putting in the intramural sport complex. Was just wasting time looking until i noticed frisbee golf writen on the map. I know everyone has been talking about a course out there but this was a plan with an area clearly reserved for disc golf. Not sure if this was just a proposal they had or if this is a plan. If anyone has any other information or possibly something more current(this was from November 03) let me know.

The land is huge, developing land both west and east of Greenville Blvd.(with the majority on the east side). Here is what they had listed.

west of Gville blvd=10 outparcels.

East of Gville blvd.=20 outparcels
huge residential area
Picnic ground
12 soccer fields
6 softball fields (built over 6 of the soccer fields)
1 Soccer stadium
2 rugby fields
a skate park
4 basketball courts
2 pools
6 tennis courts
6 acre pond with beach area
4 beach volleyball courts.
6 acres marked for disc golf.

just thought i'd say something since this thread is about new courses in Greenville. anyone know if what i saw was the plans they are going to use? is this old news i haven't heard yet?

: ) :

When Rob and I re-started the ECU DG club we were told about this land. The course that is there now will eventually be a parking lot. The land that you speak of is out past the intramual fields. I wouldn't worry about it, everyone that is there now will probably be gone before any of that happens.

Heres what I know

I was told that one of four scenarios will happen.

- a course will be put in (Harold Duval has been contacted and is intrested in designing it) and the current course will be taken out.
- new course, old course still there
- no new course, old course still there
- no course at all.

From what I heard, that is the order of what will probably happen

Sorry, for anyone that doesn't know where i'm talking about this is at the intersection of Greenville and 264 out past Hastings Ford.

Eddie-they have talked about putting something else there since the course was installed. I'm not to worried about it.

: ) :

I should be there at Thanksgiving. If anyone wants to get up and play that weekend, more than likely that Satuday, lemme know.

OK..we got measurements for the course..we also flagged the back pads. A lot of them still need to be worked. Here are the distances and if they are playable. They first distance is the white(front) and the second is the blue(back).

Hole 1 188 255 some rough area between tees
Hole 2 348 399 playable
Hole 3 200 262 needs to be "trimmed out"
Hole 4 272 299 playable
Hole 5 259 324 playable
Hole 6 241 one tee
Hole 7 291 381 playable
Hole 8 220 short tee needs to be made clear
Hole 9 151 sitting on the dock of the bay
Front White 2098 Front Blue 2532
Hole 10 211 315 back pad is kind of nasty lol
Hole 11 198 302 limb trim on back..
Hole 12 160 One tee..need to remeasure lol
Hole 13 289 402 need to trim..can play beside back tee
Hole 14 233 321 Mandos need to be put it..
Hole 15 322 568 Signature hole
Hole 16 238 295 Good idea Jeb
Hole 17 182 214 Almost done on back tee
Hole 18 249 289 OK
White back 2082 Blue back 2866
White total 4180 Blue total 5398

Will remeasure when pads go in...also going to try and make a map and put it on the web page so you can print it out..Enjoy

Hole 3 200 262 needs to be "trimmed out"




Oh God don't let the TT boys see that.

Best misunderstood trim line ever-

Cam Todd was thanking everyone in Hickory for working on the course. The TT boys were standing behind him. He pointed in the direction of the course and it happened to be right at the TT guys and said "I'd like to thank all the trimmers"

CuTT responded "oh your welcome"

Were did you see the trailer?

I am a SW geek /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

The baskets have ther numbers on them now so you can tell which hole you are playing..thanks to Tony, PJ and Mills for the help doing that during the round. We are seeing a lot of casual golfers out there which is great since we want them to enjoy the new course as much as we do..can't wait to get the long tees in. Dont forget Nov 13 and 14, the 2 events at the new course each day..hope to see a lot of folks there. :)

Almost forgot 2 more things. The get together at my clubhouse is set for December 4th along with a monthly at the new course that day. Also any old used disc you no longer want, give to Pygmy Man. He is going to try and give them to the kids in the neighborhoods around the park so they can play the course if they want and they will also know that those funny yellow things are baskets and not jungle gyms lol.

I think a television show like "Extra" or something showed it last night. I even a part of it on the news this morning. AOL has it available for members. And I might have some resources of where I can find it on the net

I saw it on AOL..ok here is information for the November monthly.
GVDG page (http://hometown.aol.com/scottyno2/gvdg.html)
There will be listed a link to a document giving the details.

OK information for the December monthly/get together is posted...
The Festivus (http://hometown.aol.com/scottyno2/DecMonthly.doc)
This should bring up a document with the information.

Hey..Mills has some good news so I will let him tell everyone...hehehe

He finally became a man? ;)

here is the good news everyone.....i got my first ace on the new course today...the bowl hole!!!...thats right...off the elevated tee pad with a small easy flick with my old beat in 10 kc pro rock....it was sweet.....straight line from my hand to the basket....so i am keeping to my word and will sponsor that hole....scotty ill have the check either tuesday or wednesday....if i ace anymore all those aces will get is just some sharpie marks on the bottom of my disc....ill be out there again tomorrow so come join....lata all!

im already there mark....now what do we need to do to help you so you can join that club too?????

Would somebody please post directions to this course?

No it's a secret place with magical powers..no one else can have it...precious..precious...

Yes I will post them tonight coming from various directions of NC and other ways along with a link to a map..but first I need to eat and calm down HazMat..he's angry tonight..

Ok coming from west of Greenville on 264..come into town and turn left on Hwy 11 (Memorial Drive)..follow this and take a right on Moore St..this is not a major intersection so your key is it is right across from the airport and after you cross the Tar River bridge. Once you are on Moore you can take either entrance into the park. If you turn right on Legion this will take you to the main entrance and put you by holes 7 and 8..if you go farther on Moore it will dead end where you have to turn right or left..this is Melody Rd..turn right and this will take you into the park by the Picnic shelter and hole 1...here is RandMcNally directions..
Get to the course (http://www.randmcnally.com/rmc/directions/[email protected]@@@0617506718.1 [email protected]@@@&BV_EngineID=cccdadcmmkflefjcefecggfdffhdgif.0&cmty=0&sStartAddr=&sStartCity=raleigh&sStartState=NC&sStartZip=&sRetDrvQry=%3a%7cUSA%7c%7c900-999+Legion+St%7c%7cGreenville%7cNC%7c%7c%7cPitt+Co unty%7c35.626808%7c-77.377396%7c6%7c0%7c1&sStartName=&sDestAddr=900-999+Legion+St&sDestCity=Greenville&sDestState=NC&sDestZip=+&sDestName=&radRouteCalcType=0&radDisplayUnits=0&radDisplayOptions=0&chkAccumMileage=0&radExplType=2&sDestLLAddr=true)
Hope this helps..a better map will be on the web page soon along with a map of the park..hopefully Sunday night..

Click here to go the the GVDG website..from there there is a link to a rough course map..

or click here for the Word documet with the map on it...
Course Map (http://hometown.aol.com/scottyno2/CourseMap.doc)
Best to print map on 8 x 14 paper and also set print quality to draft..hope this helps some.
