Looks like I dont have to stop talking after all :eek:

Good shootin Matt,
I talked to George and he said Dave F and Coda played really well, but if he would have had just an average final nine holes Gateway would have chalked up their 2nd NT win of the year.
Way to go anyway George; tied for 2nd is not to shabby and the Grand in your pocket plus the bonus will also ease the pain of letting it slip away!
All 3 Gateway Pro's cashed(George, JD and Justin) and Matt was only 1 stroke away.
Congrats to Dave F and all the Staff at Waco for running such a good event!!

Great event! Wow! Really impressive courses and they were in awesome shape!
Got to see a lot of fabulous golf this weekend.
Joel was on fire all weekend! I walked several holes with their group over the course of the weekend and it was impressive to see him in action. He threw a roller on East's #9 into a stiff head-wind. A gust caught it and and turned it toward the river. We all watched until it disappeared behind the bleachers and we all raced around the bleachers nearest to us and saw the disc curl out short of the water. Next he threw a long skip shot that left him parked 8 feet from the pin in 2 throws! He carded the only 3 on his card for that hole.
Nolan pitched a roller in round 1 on East's #4. The wind kept it from curling out and into the fence. It rolled about 45 feet past the pin and he canned the deuce! Joey said it was only the second deuce that he knew of on that hole.
There was a great batlle brewin' up at the top of the Open division. George Smith was throwin' strong and long and looked like he was gonna be able to cruise (no puns intended) to the finish, but Feldberg kept the pressure up and although George held steady through the front 9, the wooded back 9 seemed to eat him up. George finished out at +6 for the 4th round while Feldberg screamed in with an Even 54! Dave would've come in at -1 down except that he missed a 45' putt on 18 for a par. I never would've believed it if I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes, but Feldberg rolled #17 twice and both drives were inside of about 45'!!!
I was very impressed by Coda - my first time seeing him in action. He was focused without being intense. He just played some phenominal disc golf. He boomed the drive on #18 against some other big boomers!
el Chile told me after the 3rd round that he hoped he ended up on the 2nd card for the final round so that he could make his move. He delivered too! After being tied with Alex Hughes after round 3, he smoked the field with a 48 to leap-frog right on by Alex, Mitch and Randy for 2nd place! Way to go Chile! :D (Thanks for the ride at lunch too!)

Thanks, I wanted to make a run there at the end and it worked out, not being on the leader card I had no pressure, it was a good last round ( 1058 rating). :cool:

Chile, those ratings are not right. I assume the computer is viewing all fields as playing the same courses at the same time. You shot a very nice round given the conditions, but not 1058 nice.

The only midrange to make it over was the Holiday Buzz baby. That's right ladies and gentleman the Holiday Buzz. The Roc failed :Dand it took Gateway awhile just to make a driver over. The Z-Crush was the first over and after about four Orcs sunk to the muddy depths of the Brazos, one finally made it over. Their was lots of excitement at the Brazos Stakehouse when we were throwing from the deck. I heard something about a pinto, hyundia, and a lexus, but I won't comment on this quote for fear of discipline to that player from his/her sponsor.
Lots of guys threw it over the river but Justin Flanders was the only one who through it over barefooted. Freakin caveman.

#15's fairway and quite a few people got over with Robbie being the clear winner but at least I got over twice out of the 4 time I threw a driver. Also we had a guy in a boat as target practice. :D:D

Lots of people were impressive: Robbie, Coda, Nolan, Avery, Danny, Jim and a bunch of others that I might have forgot (you know who you are ;)). Alex Down's boys throwing sidearm into the lake was impressive. The guy in the boat catching one was pretty cool also.
