The year started off 6-0 in favor of the OMBs will the YGBs ever get a win ? They came close last week, but lost in a playoff on the 3rd safari hole.

Pray for them, they seem to need it.

Im ready, I'm ready, I'm ready edy edy :D

YGB 1st win of the year in just a few hours :) :cool:

I'm praying for the YGB simply so Murph will finally get a win SOMEWHERE and quit whining HEE HEE

Now Paul....don't make me come up there and whoop on you next..you rusty golfer :D

We don't need a new thread...you guys need computers that work...mine pulls it up fine at work or home....

Should be a huge YGB turnout tonight....Todd, Dieder, Josh, Wood, Mark, Josh, PT, myself, Pizza....

now lets get 'er done

Mine will pull it up, I just do it in a new tab and check 2 or 3 others before it loads.

You'd probably have to move up to my division first, sandbagger! Oh yeah, you did, didn't you? Forgot about that.....

so is everyone playing the stupid 6-6-6 thing?? I think I will pass,, jay and kevin are coming out and in a bit of a hurry so we may play around with them,,, smurf come join us....

Jay and Kevin are coming out where ?

Nothing has been decided on the format from what I can tell. Show up and see what happens.

they will be at autodan and where going to play with us but kevin in on a time frame that my not allow him to complete the format that has been discussed for this evening.. I makes no difference to me nor Jack so bring it on what ever it is,,, I do however think it will be unfair to the ygb's to play that 6-6-6, mainly the terminex team,, lets see there score shounld be in the double digits for sure,, see ya girls in a bit,, on my way to have a beer and a break :o

I will be out there Gary...should be close to 5:45 or 6:00

I don't care which format we play.....Saturday and Sunday I know what we have to do... :o

Now that I know I will be there, I will vote.... Regular Dubs. No excuses when the [inappropriate word] whooping is done!! :eek:

SCORES???

sheesh, if the YounGayBirds cant win tonight with all their ringers then they are totally hopeless. their core for sure cannot get the job done. lets hear how the outsiders did!

The "ringers" is exactly what we needed...though Todd and I could have tied D&D at 50...but Pizza ( I don't want to be a pro anymore) and PT ( I need to move up to Pro)...shot a 48...all 3 teams on the other YGB card pulled 51's and I am not sure about the other OMB's....I think very similar.

I so enjoy playing the smack doubles and look at the crowd we had tonight...17 players...SWEET...this is how fun golf should be...

now to get Josh to grow that hair out!...I knew that was good Frank and he wouldn't go for it..

They finally pulled one out. Frank and I missed all 3 finishing holes. 16-18 are gotta have birdies to pull off a win.

At least now we know they will keep coming back.

looks better than 7-0 :D

I knew I shouldn't start a new thread for this until after tonight. Doh! :cool:

put an asterisk by that "01" !

Well, PT was a regular before he got his current job, and we can't admit that PG is better than us. :cool:

We should've gotten at least 2 of the last three holes and that would have tied. We blew it, they won.

come on now, PT and I both missed 30ft putts on #1 (my drive)

We missed our 20ft putt on #4 (my drive again)

We missed a 40ft putt on #11 (PT's drive 2 foot in front of mine)

We screwed up #14 with PT turning his booming driver deep into the shule and then me puttin my disc over 6ft in that tree in front of the tee box. (dang it)

Then we got #15 with my roller and putt

We both missed a 40ft putt on 17.


All I got to say is that PT can throw a disc.

YGB... :D

That was a lame thread title - especially for a group that lost last night. :D

I got one for ya... you YGB's should really be living it up after yesterday, 'coz at this rate, y'all will get your next win around early to mid July :eek: :D/msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :cool:

new thread is faster. It has nothing to do with anyone's personal computer, as all of the software involved is on the PDGA server(s). UBBThreads (the msg-board software they use) doesn't properly index the mysql database on initial configuration. It also requests more messages than the ones needed to fill the page. It was never intended to handle a thread with 8000 posts :)

Anyway, OMB LOSER punks hung their heads in shame this week as Frank lost on his home course. They had lots of excuses as usual. I see a new trend... They got a few wins early in the season, but as the heat increases along with the competition, they just can't handle the pressure. A tie at Porter forced a playoff last week, and this week they didn't even come close. Of course, without PT/PG it would have been another tie... but it's been a little while since they have had a solid victory. Next week I think the trend will continue.

Here are the scores as best I can remember them:

48 PT/PG
50 T-n-A
50 D-n-D
51 Baldwood
51 Roberts/Krappl
51 Reddman/Newbie
51 Watts/Tabor
53 Bitner/Kevin (sorry can't remember his last name)

I know there was a solo player on the last card, but I never caught his name or his score.

Where we playing next week? :D

That was our new Pro ROD :D

That was a new player (Rod Gill) from Arlington.

Just got turned on to DG and yesterday was his second time out on a real DG course. For his second time on a course, he played very well. He has a pretty good flick already.

HOW SWEET IT IS, THE TASTE OF VICTORY!!!!!!!!!!! :cool::) :D;) :p :eek:

Hey BBD, Jack and I were 5 down not 3,, we were only one stroke behind PG/PT.. get your story correct. :D

what EVER queerboy. you said -3. you can't change your story now :)

No..he is correct...we would have tied them and beat D&D by one if we could throw anything but tree shots on #18. :p

YGBs rule ?

A best of 7 series would have ended 3 games ago.

It's a best of 30 series, 10 more victories and we lock in a win for the season.

BTW Adam, If it has ended in a tie and Frank had to leave before settling the tie, the OMBs would have forfeited. Per STD rules, all ties for first place must be decided.

<font size=1><font color="yellow">if you want to see the rules, give me a few days to write them up.</font></font>

I expect those rules on my desk by no later than 8:15 am Monday :D

thanks smurf,, only if he could pull the big bald head out of his bunghole he would have heard the correct score,, i think he got all worked up over having to grow that hair around his head out,, not on top,, can you say Looks Like a Clown Phag

but of course...I can't wait to smack them around tomorrow...the Smack Talkers turnout is going to be huge...come on Arlington crew...bring your games!!!

Hey BBD, Jack and I were 5 down not 3,, we were only one stroke behind PG/PT.. get your story correct. :D


There was no way you and Jack were 1 stroke behind me and PT, where were your birds??????

Come on, name them

Don't forget your Bogies :D

that would be bogie on hole 2 only,,, that is the score Kevin and Jack told me we had,, I can only keep up with the score if it is on a score card.

that would be bogie on hole 2 only,,, that is the score Kevin and Jack told me we had,, I can only keep up with the score if it is on a score card.

10
11
17
18
and bogie on 2,, i could be wrong though on which holes it was,, not my cup of tea to keep up with the little things in life. :confused:

We bogied hole 12. Birdied 1,4,5,10,13

Birdie for us - 1, 5, 8, 10, 16, 17

Bogey - 6 and 7

you guys suck :o
and that is twice jack and I have taken you out. :D

OLD guys lose just like I said they would... LOSERS But I will have to owe GWatts a couple of CFO's next time I come out. YGB's get the boost they need, I feel a change in the force.... play again next week we must...WIN we will....

YEA!! :cool:

congrats ygb's finally. :eek: actually duke and i had a **** good round missing the last 3 easy ones. :p pizza slinger dubs isn't about me, me, me. :eek: who cares who's drive and who's putt. we know p.t. carried you all over that course. :eek:

hey just got back on line. what time and where do we meet tom. for a to z. i know it's posted somewhere but don't have a lot of time to back track.

Z-Boaz Players Meeting at 10:00

dang are you sure it's that late? :eek:

yes, pinkie, it really is that late. i swear. i asked brian the same thing. 10AM players meeting.

cool i needs me beauty sleep. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

yes, pinkie, it really is that late. i swear. i asked brian the same thing. 10AM players meeting.



Yet I have to be out there at 7:30 :(. We were expecting allot of teams to sign-up in the morning.....I guess Mace wanted a cushion if that is the case /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif. Now if we can keep him from talking for 45 minutes :p :D

no not mace. :D

i think it was the following....

13
15
16
18
We got the stupid bogie on 14

And no Frank, PT and I carried each other. With the exception of Hole 14, we played pretty good with either one of us having a good shot. But we were both pretty rusty on the putting green missing several oportunities.

time to go get beat up some more. :eek:

and he did!

in his own backyard, nonetheless! :D

and he left early....

Arlington got the OMB win...

Dallas got the YGB win

there are no YGBs in arlington you id[/b]iot! :D

really? :)

not of the STD persuasion, no.

OKAY

Arlington Take Adv Masters

Dallas take AM

better :D

OKAY

Arlington Take Adv Masters

Dallas take AM

better :D

Yeah, but now your verb tense is wrong :D/msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I didn't think you would have trouble following it with the "S" :D

Where are we playing Thursday? I'll put in a vote for the Lake. BamBam? :cool:

With Bam Bam now correcting spelling and grammar...he is starting to sound like BBD...maybe we could have BBD and LBD :o

Lake Course sounds good to me. :D

And you're starting to sound like Pizza, or maybe even flyboy :eek: :D

Well, maybe not flyboy... at least you know how to use the Shift key :p

We can try the Lake, I found a way to avoid getting on 35E at or near 5:00 so I'll see how it works.

YGBs wanting to go back to the course that gave them at least 2 wins last year. Let's see how they do this year.

Hey I'm closing this week and Xerox is only a couple exits away from the lake. I don't even want to see a disc until next weekend though!

We can try the Lake, I found a way to avoid getting on 35E at or near 5:00 so I'll see how it works.


Please share :confused: :D

Yeah----no kidding....otherwise it isn't even worth trying to get out there for me....worse than the ride to AUD

I'm going to try Old Denton Road (last exit before 35E) up to 121 business to Main St. to Mill St. I'm hoping most traffic on 121 now uses the bypass. It's a little longer, but the few times I've started up Old Denton, it wasn't very heavily traveled.

For Audubon from 190 west of 75. Just follow 190 past 78 to Centerville Road. Right on Centerville past Broadway, left on Duck Creek, right on Oates.

you mean you just discovered these routes? You shoulda asked me, I used to be a Lewisville local, and I grew up in Garland :) If you're coming W on 190 to Old Denton, I'd recommend exiting Rosemeade and taking that to Old Denton. Maybe even a couple minutes faster would be Rosemeade to a R on Marsh to a L on Hebron, then down to Old Denton. Hebron seems to move much faster than Rosemeade. Traffic at 190 & Old Denton can be hairy at 5:00.

The route to Audobon is decent, but getting E of 75 on 190 can be a pain at 5:00. It's usually faster to just wait it out on 635... depending on where you are coming from. I used to have to drive heom from Addison to Garland every day in rush hour... in a '67 mustang with no power steering or A/C . No matter which way you go, it's a long drive

Ok, the best way from Plano to the Lake depends on where you are in Plano. GB Turnpike to Old Denton is actually a good idea. Old Denton gets a lot of traffic at rush hour, but not like 35 and 121 area.

I live at Hebron/Park and Josey.

I always take Josey to 121 then over to lewisville. The only traffic I ever hit is at 121 and Josey. But when you get to Old Denton, you bypass all the traffic without a light.

You can also take Parker (old 544) all the way to business 121. But this gives you lights at Old Denton, 121 and again at Business 121. If you take Parker, turn on Josey to 121.

Don't take Plano Parkway to 121, It meanders too much.

121 going south from Preston or Legacy is not too bad.

If you are taking GB turnpike, I would take Old Denton before getting off at Rosemead/Midway exit. If you do get off at Midway, turn right and either take Hebron/Park to Josey, or take Plano Parkway to Parker over to Josey.

Actually, this way may not be so bad.

ok, from GB Turnpike, get off at Midway (one exit after North Dallas Tollroad) Go north on Midway to Plano Parkway. (3 lights) Take a left on Plano Parkway too Parker. (past Hebron High School where my kids will someday attend) Turn Left on Parker to Josey and then Right on Josey to 121. Left on 121 and stay in the right lane. When you come to the 121 bypass/Business 121 stay right (where the old Wranglers building is)

This puts you in lewisville. At that point you take a right at the 4th light (main st)and follow the road to Mills (right by the new city hall) Turn right on Mills and folow to the course.

Ok, you got it :D

no way i can do the lake thursday. count me out.

GB and Porter are nicely situated in the middle for everyone...

I would also like to play green or Porter instead of the Lake this week.. I will be there again this week so there is my vote.

gee! wow! no ones talking about last weekend! :D

ITS OUR BACKYARD!!!

nothing to talk about.

GB or Porter sounds good...

there's a shocker.

You guys [insert inappropriate word here]. :D We play GB and Porter all the time. Don't you want to play something else? :confused:

come on over and play the Vet...

you just said you can't play the Lake frank and I know driving there myself is a chore if I am trying to get there on time...go Lake...go whatever...

I still have had enough disc golf for a few more days :D

Well, some of us couldn't make the trip to Audubon last week, but ya don't hear us whining about it, do ya? :D

Well, y'all make my mind up and let's play.

hey i'll vote for the vet. or bear creek or even cedar hill.

let the whining begin. :D

I just don't want to keep playing GB and Porter so often. The Vet doesn't bother me since school is out for the summer. Disc golf season has started! :cool: But BamBam does deserve the opportunity to have his long time friend come into town this Thursday. :p :D

I don't mind if I can't make a few of these...just some parts of town there is no way I can make when I have no flexibility on when I leave here.

I can always catch up next week.

Duke - I got your call late last night as my phone was on the charger yesterday. I can give some hand out at Crawford, but not until the DDG pulls their heads from their ______ and decides if they are going to be helpful and provided baskets or just stand in the way and do nothing as is their normal path.

I just want to play.. It may be a while before I can play again so where ever is fine I guess, but I'm not driving out to the Vet or Bear... Way too far for me...

When you guys are playing whereever Thursday, I should be playing in Tennassee. Shelby Park to be exact. (if I can get there before Dark)

Then next thursday I will be driving back from Tenn and hopefully playing either Burns park in North Little Rock or Texarkana.

I think the reason we play Porter and GB so much is so that more people can play. The Lake would be fun, but Frank can't make it. BC, CH, and the Vet are way too far for 90% of our regulars to make it. BamBam, I don't think you've come to any of them this year... Is there anywhere you can make it to by 6:00? Other than Denton? :)

I thought the point of this was to play a smack-talk round with friends for bragging rights. Since our group is so spread out, what's wrong with meeting in the middle? Variety is always nice. If anyone can come up with a course outside of Carrollton that is doable for most of us, then I'll cast my vote for that course. Otherwise, GB or Porter may be our best bet.

YGBs rule :)

Before I get jumped on for my DDG remark, let me state it is not personally meant for anyone. Danny is a great guy and helps alot with disc golf around here as well as Dirk, but they are also very busy with other aspects in their lives.

I just hate to see the DDG doing nothing for the entire 2 1/2 yrs I have been here. No tournies, no new courses, not even mini's except at BB Owen....working together with people that want to work is the only way this is going to get our side of town bigger and better for disc golfers all over the metroplex.

you go smerf.... tell'em we want 6 new courses in Dallas before the month in done....

Adam after years and years of working hard getting courses put in, both Dirk and Danny stepped down. DDG is now in the hands of the guys who play out there. They still have meeting and are still raizing money for Flag Pole Hill. Dirk still does his thing with the city of Dallas, but is not out like he use to be.

Some of the things that DDG has done lately.

Get Rowlett installed.
Redesign several holes at Autobon.
Ton's of work out at BB Owen.

DDG also designed, raized money and installed EBR and now has pulled the course for lack of play.

DDG also re-designed the Plano course.

DDG has been working with the City of Richardson to install a course. Even holding a tournament at Huffines Park off Plano Rd. (I hold the course record :D)

DDG donated the bases for the Carrollton 9 baskets. (which I need to get back from Scott Cook)

DDG has sponsored the Carrollton Open almost every year from year ONE.

The problem is that those that know how to get things done, don't have the time to do it anymore.

What do you want to do to get things done around here.

Do you want to start up a new club that gets things done??? I will join and help out the little that I can. It takes a lot of work.

BamBam, I don't think you've come to any of them this year... Is there anywhere you can make it to by 6:00? Other than Denton? :)

Thank you for making my point, BBD.... and yes, guess which other course I can make? :p :D

I thought when we made the decision to begin rotating this event between several DFW area courses, that we did so to allow most everyone to play in at least a few of them, as opposed to fewer of us being able to play almost all of them. After all, we were calling oursevles the "Travelling STD" at one time, as opposed to the "Centralized STD", correct? :p :cool:

If that is not the case, then I guess I will only make a few of them all year long... Life goes on.

If my assessment is correct, however, then I must be blunt in saying there are a few people here that need to get over themselves, and stop whining and crying when they can't make every single event because the drive is too far. Grow yourself some thicker skin and just go play somewhere else for a day.

That sentence would have to be directed more at the OMB's...I don't mind missing a week as stated before..

Bryan - I have NO inclination to start another club as I have already been down that path before and don't even have the time myself. I just wish the current "club" would do something for this area...

Fixing Plano, changing buckets around and sponsoring events may help, but they isolate themselves so much from all other clubs and people that could work together that it is like smacking your head against a brick wall....OKC disc golf is dead due to a lack of leadership and a well formed club and they only have 3 courses in OKC....Dallas is the same but with tons of players and courses...

Just tired of driving across town to play in tournies when they could be right here in our backyard

Hey come on now, I am running two events in Carrollton this year.

DDG has the same problem that the Oklahoma City club has. Once DJ stepped down, it went downhill ever sense.

exactly what I was getting at...without a great leader at the top and people to support that...clubs fail

You aren't running the tourney under the club though are you...? Mr Jims is your baby and the TX 10 is Himings....

by the way...do you still need some help with the TX10? I would be willing to give you help with that event...especially since they are on my HOME courses!

Yes, I was counting on help from several of the local DG'rs, including you. Without help, this could be the last Carrollton Open. It is just too hard to run a HUGE event and make a living doing something else.

Help is available.

Where are we playing ?

Not trying to fuel the fire, but for the longest I have wondered why Dallas is so out of the picture when it comes to clubs, and participation. After talking w/ Nate Bitner and hearing all that he has done for Lubbock makes me wonder why it is so hard to make some things happen here as well.
I do not know alot about Dallas disc golf as a club, xcept for they are non-existent on here, what is gonna take for Dallas to step it up?

By the way I am sad to say that I will not be playing this Thurs,I'm going to Denver to see my cousin graduate high school, hell ya'll don't even know where ya'll are playing anyways :eek: :p- j/k
But seriously, does anyone know if there are many courses in Denver or surrounding cities that I might be able to play while I am there? :cool:

Check the course directory on here for Denver courses

http://www.milehighdiscgolf.org/

regarding a lack of a dallas club... Frankly, I think Dallas is too big with too many golfers for one club to work easily. There are lots of cliques that have petty feuds with other cliques. There are TDs that clash with other TDs. I'd love to see a Dallas club come to fruition, but I think alot of work would have to be done before that could ever happen. Them Arlington boys may be schmucks, but at least they have a good thing going with the ADGA :D. The Vet, Z-Boaz, and Cedar Hill are some of the best courses in DFW.

On our side of town, we really only have Audubon that can compete with those. Samuel Crawford will possibly be even better, but it's still a work in progress. What we do have is a bunch of average courses that don't really have the draw that a good or great course will have. With so many mediocre options, our local golfers are going to be spread pretty far out on any given day. Lake Park has a decent-sized draw because it is such a beautiful, shady park that is playable in just about any weather conditions... but It's not on the same level with the ones mentioned above. Add into the mix the fact that there is a tournament within driving distance nearly every weekend... What motivation do golfers have to actually form a club where there isn't one?

What I think needs to happen is this: someone needs to take initiative and make something great in Dallas. Crawford park is a good start. I wish it was closer to home, but 30 minutes isn't too bad, and if it turns out as good as I think it can... it will be the best in DFW. Someone needs to help build a base of disc golfers who are willing to make the new park their home, and thereby build an informal club around something that has the power to keep the club going. Weekly minis, quarterly events, fundraising tournaments, on-site disc sales, etc. will go very far in this effort. Trying to organize people who don't have a reason to stay organized.... well it fails. We've seen that.

By no means am I suggesting that I would try and start such a trend, I'm only pouring my thoughts out onto virtual paper. I'd like to mention that in doing so, I have started to truly realize how much certain people do and are trying to do for our sport. The dedication and thick skin it takes are qualities I very much admire and respect. I hope one or some of those people will show an interest in making something happen in Dallas.

What if we took a poll to see if anyone would be willing to jumpstart this kind of thing.
I would be willing to donate time, however money is tough for me right now. I want to see this thing take a 180.
What does it take?

What does it take?

It takes a few players to get together and decide what they want to accomplish.

Then you set out to make those things happen.

There are always guys that will help out on work days, and show up to play mini's, and what not, to help raise money.

The problem is direction. Someone has to be a leader. If I had the time and could make a commitment, I would do it myself.

Anyone feel free to make a suggestion. :D

if that comment was made in my direction then it shouldn't have been. all i said was count me out at the lake if they want to play there, cool. when i suggested the vet or cedar hill that was a joke because i already know that is out of the question.

but at the same time the regulars that show up week after week maybe should have more of an input.

There is already a Dallas Disc Golf Club, and a couple of North Texas Disc Golf Clubs, ADGA...

A group that is dedicated to getting new courses in the ground and working with the various organizations (DG clubs, Neighborhoods, City and County Rec Departments) to work through issues around the courses would be a large task. It should also be organized as a non-profit which requires consistency of major players and accurate detailed bookkeeping. We should have the talent here, but who wants to dedicate that much time and effort just to be told you aren't doing it right ?

Amen Duke and Bryan...I have been there and will post more on this later when I have some time...it is very simple and very hard....

Leaders are the KEY...

trust me there's a lot more going on behind the scenes at ddg than meets the eye. that's why you have guys like steve wallace saying the hell with it i'll do it myself.

bryan james is posting there accomplishments from what he's been told by one or two people. there's always more to the story.

Actually, what I posted is what DDG did when I was a current member. We also ran several tournaments (Spring Flings) and Wamo Jr championships. (and collage championships too)

i know what i know from when i was a member and still keep updated.

So which Carrollton course are we playing this week? :confused: :D

Actually, what I posted is what DDG did when I was a current member. We also ran several tournaments (Spring Flings) and Wamo Jr championships. (and collage championships too)



Bryan - I am not debating with you here, but lets think about this...when was the last Spring Fling...that was way before I moved here...that has to go back atleast 2 1/2 yrs.

They hold minis at BB and maybe Fritz and collect funds for their cause

adam some people are willing to buy swamp land in florida. brian is one of those people. :eek:

No..this isn't about slamming bryan...some of those guys are just fine...just the idea and the club has grown stagnant, but they won't relinquish and/or nobody wants to change the direction of Dallas Golf

When I started the OKC Club it was 3 guys with $33.33 each..we bought $100 in plastic and had a 100 person tournament within the year..we threw an event every single month no matter how many showed up...ran weekly ace pots...ect.ect...

It doesn't have to be a "CLUB" if it has direction, people that want to be there and a goal!

if that comment was made in my direction then it shouldn't have been. all i said was count me out at the lake if they want to play there, cool. when i suggested the vet or cedar hill that was a joke because i already know that is out of the question.

No Frank, my comment was not directed at you... if it was, it would have been wrapped in pink string for ya! :eek: :D

Let's just say I'm not on board with the idea of playing the same courses week after week, just because it's supposedly more convenient.... it's not convenient for me.

dang it i thought we were going to get something started here. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

you know what with all this talk on ddg, how about b.b. owens thursday.

I'm in for BB. Finally some talk on what we are going to do.

Everybody check out those new ratings. Some people aren't current on their PDGA dues. :o Out of our regulars, GDuke is the leader at 922. I'm still an MA2 bagger for now. :D

I broke back from the almost novice rating and finally hit an even 900 :D

BB could ALMOST be fun with all of us out there...do they do one of their mini's on that day?

ahh...Watts...I got you by a whole ranking point :p

and that wuss Krell has me by one point and he hasn't even played since Nov 2004 :o

ah, wow, 964
Good thing I was already going to have to skip Waco. Now I wish I had played Pro weekend.

move up bagger :D

every one needs to remember that we are all spread out all over the metroplex and it is not a easy task to get to all the courses that we would like to play, and on a weekday at that...
I do not have any desire to drive for a hour or longer to get to a course and then have to drive back home,,, it makes no difference where we play or who shows up to me... It is hard to accomadate all that plays... when my office was in Carrollton it was easy to get to all most all of them, now I am in Richardson so I will not make the ones that are to far for me to drive to.. I do not mind missing out so do not make your decision on the few that dont want to drive that far....

make a choice

make a choice


and exactly who should make that choice?

i do not care,,, I can always find some thing else to do..
there are only a few courses that I will be going to on a Thursday,, I do not mind missing out of some of them..

Do we want to attempt BB? do they have a mini that day?

what about Weatherford?

not sure about the mini there on thursday, but there is always a ton of casual players there every day...

what about Weatherford?



Might as well just drive to New Mexico :p

not sure about the mini there on thursday, but there is always a ton of casual players there every day...



I am definately not a fan of BB casuals, but the course isn't the worst one out there...Haven't hit Fritz yet this year either...

Im in for wherever.....

I am definately not a fan of BB casuals, but the course isn't the worst one out there...Haven't hit Fritz yet this year either...


Fritz has shade. BB does not. BB is a fun course though, just in a bad part of town traffic- and casuals-wise

So, you guys just refuse to play the Lake course for even one week, huh?

How lovely.

Can't you read :p

This has nothing to do with "refusing to play the Lake"

I can not make it there by 6pm and have stated many times to play w/o me....I can live without one Thursday or maybe those who can't make the lake will play elsewhere...sorry geography doesn't allow me to get there, but that is the facts

Show of hands.

Who can't make the Lake by 6:00 PM

Who can.

By avoiding 35E I should be able to get there on time.

I can :D

But can't this week or next, too far of a drive. After that, it depends on my new asst manager.

hey, how about Burns Park in North Little Rock. I should be near there around 5pm tomorrow, and same on the next thursday. :D

This has nothing to do with "refusing to play the Lake

You're so right, Murphy. What I should have said is "... suggesting BB Owens, GB, Porter, or any other DFW area course instead of the Lake..."

"refusing" was way too much of a stretch. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

i am out on the lake,, and please dont play there because some of us can not get there or dont want to drive that far,,
dont get me wrong I do love the lake course but it is to far for me to drive and then drive all the way back home,,
bambam it has nothing to do with you or your choice,, setting in traffic for an hour is not my thing..

I, for one, am fortunate enough to have the luxury of adjusting my work hours to fit DG. Most of the time. I get off at about 4:30 on Thursdays so that I can make it to wherever we play. I'll abstain from voting this time b/c it really doesn't matter to me where we play. I'll be there.

Gary, I know it doesn't have anything to do with me... that's not where I'm headed with this.

I'm simply trying to make a point, and I'm trying to do it in such a fashion as to allow the more intelligent among us to "discover" the point on their own, as opposed to having it flown in their faces.

Based on the early results, however, I fear the experiment may be too ambitious in its scope. :(

Gary, there is no reason to sit in traffic for an hour to get from Richardson to Lewisville. Take your favorite route to 190, Go W to the Tollway, endure just enough traffic to get you to the Spring Creek exit. Go L (NW) to 121, then L (W-SW) to Main. Turn R (N) there to Mill, Take another R (N) and follow Mill to the course. I'd think it should take less than 45 minutes. You have a stereo, no? I have to drive at least 30 minutes no matter where we play. Audubon is over an hour. I make the drive because I have fun playing the STD with all you old farts... Why can't we all just work together and figure something out? Carrollton is in range for everyone (even you, BamBam: it doesn't take an hour to get from Denton to GB) and we now have enough daylight to move the start time to 6:30 if necessary. We can even start each card as it's ready to go... This doesn't have to be as difficult as you guys are making it.

Bam Bam..you just don't get it..you are not pointing out something subtle or not noticed by the more intelligent of the crew...go splash in the water at the lake and cool off ...I don't care where you play, but at this point since Gary, Frank and many others can't make the lake seems like you are beating a dead horse there...

Actually, I believe I get it just fine, Smurphy.

I think that I have said that I think I can make it to the Lake the last few times I have posted about it. :)

I made it to Bear Creek, and that's worse for me.

I just asked for a decision so I know where to play (and I know BBD is going to say "in the street"). :cool:

:D

Hey BBD mind your own business,, I can leave when ever i want to, i dont punch a time clock.. I just dont want to drive that far,, period end of disscusion..

bambam not sure what hidden message you are talking about,, but it sounds like you are p!ssed off because we all wont drive to the lake to play a round,,
I play where i want to and that is it,, i dont like traffic at all,, and there are some courses here in DFW that i have no desire to play,, that is my opinion

Thank you, Gary.... that was entertaining. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

geez, you all come over to the westside and get all yer alls butts whipped like a donkey and now yer taking it on all yourselves :) just pick a spot, go play, and be thankful its too far from arlington :D

amen to that,,, and thanks for the schooling sunday afternoon,,, you guys had it going on,,, we could not get any of the easy birdies and then there was that stupid 5,, oh well there is always next year... Oh wait a minute - Waco is around the corner,, you and clay gonna play some dubs on friday??/

i was just giving my two cents... all of you guys have all ways given me a hard time about the driving thing,,, :D

I never have... but hey, whatever.

Oh wait.. my bad - I didn't see your smiley face at the end of that post. :p :cool:

Yeah lets start our own Dallas club and see how far we get, we can't even agree on a course for Thursday! Whaaaaa Whaaaa Whaaa
BTW I cannot make it to the lake either and I am really PI$$ed off about it!!! :D

maybe we could run tournaments and instead of trophies we could award the winners a bronze pacifier. LOL I know you already have one Frank but this one could be special for ya, that is if you stuck around for the awards!

He didn't want to stick around for the Heckling he was going to get... :D

we're playing but not dubs. my mom is in town from california so i'm just lucky i can play at all. looking forward to it... the waco courses pretty much define the sport!

what heckling was i supposed to get. :eek:

once again I am in for anywhere.... and I have a suggestion for the original STDers (a group to whom I do not belong or know the membership of).... let the original members set the courses that will be part of the rotation.... set the rotation and post it at the start of the thread each year....

that way anyone that stumbles across the thread will know what courses are to be played.... that should help a potential new recruit know for sure if he will be able to attend the weekly SPANKING OF THE CHILDREN..... :D

no feelings were intentionaly hurt in the making of this post... :D

I don't really want to play the Lake course. I am ok with BB, Fritz, Porter, or Greenbelt..How about Fritz!! There thats it we will play at Fritz. Nice shade good location "I think" I haven't played there since last years battle where me and Frank actually played together and won!! :eek: This year I will not carry old Frank around!! :eek: I am in I will be there for another WIN.... Since me and my partner won last week WE or I will decide where we play this week. Sounds fair to me.. :D

hey steve i've been saying that all along. :eek:

pipe down you goober. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

pipe down you goober. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif


Your right Sir Frank, I guess we could just bicker back and forth. We were getting a lot accomplished like that. ;)

Last year, the rotation included, but not limited to, GB, Audubon, and the Lake. Yes, I said it. :p How is Fritz any closer than these courses? :confused: I didn't know so many people were afraid of the Lake. Don't use the lame excuse that the last 5 miles are [potty mouth [I'm a potty-mouth!]] to drive. BBD has given a great alternate route. :D

Fritz is atleast 30 min closer for me than the lake..it isn't always the distance, but the drive :D500ft can make or break you :o

I was thinking the Colony also...we played there once last year and I remember the YGB killed the OMB's but D&D were not there..

FRITZ works for me...colony just a thought - Mark..you have a buddy that played that time...I saw him on the course last weekend

from the lake i have a 45 minute drive also to get home. if we get done at;30 or 8;45 then it's 10 p.m. when i get home.

hey steve i've been saying that all along. :eek:



Frank..just FYI..when we did try a schedule last year..you were opposed :D..maybe we do need it..maybe we are all grasping at the bigger picture for Dallas golf here..

There are piles of "clubs/golf groups"..in the area with The Lake Group and most of them Porter also and now Gb ( thank goodness) ..McKinney, BB, Fritz, now Cedar Hill, ect and hopefully Crawford..

we can't always be at the same place at the same time and I only named a small chunk of the courses we have...

It would take the work of the masses, but imagine the golf Dallas and Fort Worth could have just by the pure # of courses and players we have...It's not about competing ideas..its about more golf and better golf!

but we just don't group all together...agenda's, jobs, lifestyles, ideas, backgrounds, beliefs, ect...

That is not the reason it shouldn't work...it has to be the love of the sport and time you can allocate towards it...and it takes alot!

I just want to golf.. :D

Tomorrow..somewhere..one of these

http://www.recsports.hhp.ufl.edu/wauburg/activities/images/putt.jpg

will be nailed with my aviar :p

from the lake i have a 45 minute drive also to get home. if we get done at;30 or 8;45 then it's 10 p.m. when i get home.



I got home last week after 10:00. Man, was my wife mad at me!! :o

Most courses are a little inconvenient to someone. GB and Porter are by far the closest for me (unless you count Shawnee). Mckinney isn't too far, but I won't drive that part of 75 at 5:00 if I can help it. That's why I live 5 miles from work, and none of the commute is on the highway.

what the number plate.

so where is it at tom.?

no happy face after that :D..lazy OMB

:eek:

I'm chasing you old man... :o

so what about tom.? :eek:

Call it...since you can't post tomorrow...I think most of us can make something centrally located in this area :D

We always have the best turnouts at Porter, GB, Aud...but we haven't seen Fritz, the Colony, Lake or BC lately or many others..

wonder how long takes me to hit Plano..
:confused:
..there are too many...I am tired..someone else make the call...

Murphy it should take you 30 minutes to hit plano. I think Fritz is a great idea. We can try to start around 6:15 so more ppl have time to make it. Like I said before, I'm in for wherever, just let me know where to be.

so where is it at tom.?



Who is Tom? :confused: :D

this is the longesr we've gone without making up our minds. the morning of. it will have to be either b.b. or aud. now for me since we haven't decided. so i'll call shari later to see if you guys picked one of those two. if not i guess i'll see you ladies next week. :p

Todd and I are going to Porter this evening..if you want to join in...come along :)

i am out,,, gotta work till 5 then going out with the wife.. hope all you grumpy arses have fun,,
we will be at the lake course this weekend due to the rain,,,
8:30AM both days smurf :o

are you sure you can drive that far, Watts? :D:D

Well, it looks like T&A made a decision at least. Porter works for me.

no bambam i will be riding with some one else,, and it is also the weekend not a freaking weekday :p

Looks like about 60% on Saturday..Todd and I were thinking of hitting CH if it isn't pouring..

see some of you at Porter today

no bambam i will be riding with some one else,, and it is also the weekend not a freaking weekday :p

Interesting... so, the distance actually changes on the weekends, then? /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :D:cool:

no...the traffic sure does though...:p

Guess what, my flight was cancelled yesterday and I took as a bad omen so I am not in Denver afterall.
**** I'm gone for one day and noone can make decissions :p
Porter? I'm down for whatever :cool:

Get out to Porter Woody...Todd and I are ready to work on you 2 some more :D

I just talked to Josh and he was wanting some redemption Woody..he said he would be there close to 6pm...see you out there if you can make it

porter at 6:00.... count me in.....

Angie and I will make it, going by play it again first. :D

Any OMB's comming out????

I think they are skeered. :D

There'll be at least 2. Steve and I both responded we would be there. Frank does not have internet access at work anymore so we won't know until he shows or doesn't.

i already told you goobers since we waited till the morning of to pick a course that i would only be able to play b.b. or the bon. so shari and i played a round at the bon. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

who won?

me :D

she cheats

i know ;) :eek: ;)

cool at least now i have a witness. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif that's what happens when she plays and learns from juli and ginetta. :D

Post another win for the YGBs! :cool:

PT/ReddMan - 44
Duke/Parker - 45
Baldwoody - 46
Smurf/Tad - 47

Someone correct the scores if I'm wrong.

I like them the way they are, but Woody and BBD shot the 46...we had the 47 :o

Did you all forget...

PT chains on #7 for $1 each

Duke may have hit the bucket on that hole

#11 - ACE BBD and ACE PARKER...WOW!!..

I am out $11.00 and what a great round..then Josh told the group on #6 that we had already hit 2 and one of them ACES it...w/o skip..

Porter was a golfers friend today!!!!

How do you change a thread title ?

It's been bad luck since I made the new thread.

PT is on the winning team again. 3 teams tied going into 15, and we miss the birdie.

2 metal hits(hole 6 & 7), 2 aces (BBD and Steve P. on hole 11).

At least someone made it to -10 today.

Gin Diesel..you know what to do...that is another one..

Mark in singles - doubles had me ready for his win..PT showing up sealed the deal...they putted lights out and PT brought that boomer we love to see...

RINGERS....PT so far...we are always 1 or 2 from the win, except for that tie last week that wasn't needed.. :D

Frank's skeered of PT...... :D :D :D

Star bird on hole #1 and hole #13...and I guess hole #11 but 2 were aces :o

I thought #10 was a star bird as well.

we did, woody parked..mark parked..if you hit yours that is another one...that was one strange round of golfing considering Todd and I were par through #8...geesh...

Did you old Bastages let the YGB beat you again? What in the hell is goin' on up there?

Do I need to come up and teach the youngsters the humility they can only learn by losing to someone who stinks as bad as me?!?!?

cool at least now i have a witness. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif that's what happens when she plays and learns from juli and ginetta. :D

ummmm... i'm sure she had no witnesses for the cheatin' i'm talkin about! :o

wouldn't there have to be at least one witness for that. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Happy Birthday Mark!

Way to go Atwood..you survived another year...Happy 24hr to you..tomorrow you are just another arse :D

Hope your day is great and I still hope to see you sometime this year...I talked to Soules about the TFO..he was 50/50.....come on up!!!!

Young guns are storming back to victory!!! Die oldies..Gr8 ACE's guys....Even you oldy Parker.. :D

all you D-area golfers... as we do on every holiday, we will be running a Team Gold (match play) mini at hte Vet on Memorial Day. signup/seeding starts about 9:30 and play starts shortly after 10AM.

it is complete and total fun... most of you remember the MaceMan match play day. this is just as good, and only one round.

the teams are seeded, so there's no reason for players in the BBD skill-range to stay away. we will get you situated so that you will be playing against similarly skill-challenged golfers!

so dont be shy, hope to see lots of you at the Vet on monday!

Josh and Woody....and anyone else that wants....

Todd and I will be at GB today at 5:30 or so....let me know if we should look for ya

change of plans for Saturday,, we will be at Autobaun at 8:30, not sure about sunday but I am out.. Will be back in on Monday but not sure where we are playing,, if any of you guys are getting together on Monday call me on Sunday please,,

All OMBs and YGBs need to play team golf at the Vet. It's always fun. :D

change of plans for Saturday,, we will be at Autobaun at 8:30

See, I KNEW you wouldn't make the loooooooooooooooong drive to the Lake course. :eek: /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :D

All OMBs and YGBs need to play team golf at the Vet. It's always fun. :D

Would love to, but I'll be in Sunny Las Vegas playing golf Monday morning. We're driving out there starting tomorrow morning. We might be able to make the route go near Sipapu :)... We'll see.

Not yet.
I can't go back yet.
Too much pain.
I must recover my strength.

no Mr. Smart [I'm a potty-mouth!],, has nothing to do with the drive,, my longest brother's frist son was born yesterday so I have a small window to get in around Sat morning before my wife gets off of work.. hope this makes you feel better..

Oh and thanks for clarifiying for me... :D

Would anyone be up for traveling over to the FLY 18 course on Monday? $22 for 2 people and a cart....can't beat that...there is a Tulsa player coming down that may come along

Josh - I left you a phone msg...are you going to make it out today?

Hey all from Tenn. Glad to see PT on top again.

Soon it will be tied up again.

Didn't get to play yesterday, but will play a round on Lookout Mountain or The Sinks on Sunday in Chattanooga (I learned how to spell this one today making motel reservations)

There is also a new 9 hole course hear Nashville that I plan on playing either tuesday or Wednesday when I make my trip to play disc golf all day.

Now don't you guys work too hard today (as if any of you do Except Frank where they cut him off the internet to make him get something done)

I am going to go cruze the country side on an ATV for the rest of the afternoon :D

i would be for sure,, be sure and call me on Sunday to let me know if it is a for sure deal,, i will try and get Jack and Phil to come out also.

Jack and I for sure on the Fly18 for Monday,, I would guess we are going to play doubles.... If that is the case then the Sandledog team needs to come on out along with the D/D's..

I won't know about G.B. til a lil later today, and I will ley u know.
Monday sounds like fun, I've been wanting to play the fly 18
but will not know for sure til closer to Sun :D.
Do u know if someone who is not playing still has to pay the green fee? ie: Angie? :confused: :D :cool:

we could have a saturday STD event,, any input

I am down, but we have been talking about C.H.
Input from the rest of the gang...... :confused:

Shoot, I am still in awe from seeing 2 Aces within 3 shots, on the same hole!! :cool:- Way cool!
Definitly not something you see ofton! Congrats again partner!, And Steve I would rather you be the OMB that hits one rather thatn any of the other old farts! :D
GOOD STUFF!!!

ch for saturday not monday you goober :o
but woody how are you going to reach all those long holes if your BBD partner isnt around /msgboard/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

I thought you had to be in early on Saturday Gary and you know how I feel about 8:30 am...

Looks like only a 20% chance of rain now for tomorrow...good news!!!

Woody - I highly doubt she would have to pay to watch, but if you split a cart with your partner..I am not sure if there is another seat in the back...Todd has said he couldn't make it and BBD will be gone..you and I may tag up if need be

No problem on the clarification there, Watts. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

And congrats on the new birth!!! :D

I'm not quite clear on what, exactly, a "longest brother" would be, however.... please 'splain. :D

I really don't want to hear the explanation on what that "longest brother" is!! :o:D

I am not sure, but I think he has a "movie" career :D

I might be able to get one round in tonight.... we'll see. I can make 5:30 since i have today off, but I'm not sure exactly what I have going on this evening. I may need to help Keith pack up the U-Haul tonight. If so, it'll need to be a quick round of golf :)

youngest brother,,, you goober

You're the one who typed it..... BIGGER GOOBER! :D
