That's a concussion

what the hell happened?

hole 1 is 400 feet off a drop off with a creek behind it.

I was playing the VTI, a match play event, and I threw my drive OB in this creek.

The guy I was playing parks it so he said hey I'll just tap this in and you don't even have to putt, which made sense to me.

Well, I was having trouble getting my disc from the creek and the rest of my group was done playing the hole and started walking to hole 2.

The group on the tee saw my group walking to the next hole, assumed we were done and threw.

The guy threw a pro beast (the older ones that were in champion plastic) as a spike hyzer and it nailed me in the back of my head.

ouch did you throw his shot in the creek :D

haha no I actually saved him from going OB.

ow quit it...did it leave a mark...oh wait that's a silly question knowing you :D

yeah, next time I see you I'll let you feel the scar :D

some how (stomach churning) no THANK YOU :p :p

Congrats to Skinner on his first HHO win.

Congrats AV on making the finals!

The Piedmont Disc Golf Club is proud to announce BRAWL IV! The league will consist of eight one-day tournaments that run on Saturdays from December 8, 2007 through February 16, 2008. BRAWL IV will showcase the courses of western Virginia including Greene County Park in Stanardsville, Walnut Creek Park in Charlottesville, Elk Creek DGC in Appomattox, Peaks View Park in Lynchburg, Fishburn Park in Roanoke, Golden Hills in Christiansburg and Timber Ridge in Bedford and Franklin County Park in Rocky Mount. The awards ceremony will be held after completion of the final tournament at Timber Ridge.

Each tournament is two rounds. Registration ends at 9:30, followed by a brief players' meeting, and tee off at 10:00 sharp. Open $20, Am/Ladies/Junior $10.

BRAWL IV is a points series with a simple format. Four divisions will be offered (Open, Ladies, Amateur and Junior <14). A player receives one point for entering, one point for each person beaten within your division and bonus points for the top 5 finishers (7-1st, 4-2nd, 3-3rd-2-4th,1-5th.) Only a player's best six finishes may be used in the final results.
A portion of the entry fee at each one-day tournament will be withheld from the Open and Am divisions. This money goes toward a trophy for the Open, Junior, Ladies and Am division winners, free membership (or renewal) into the club of their choice (PDGC or BRDGC) for the top four Ams and a �Skins Match� for the top four Open point leaders to be held at the awards ceremony. A $1 �Ace Pool� will be included with every unclaimed prized going towards final payout.

Jan 19-Franklin County
Jan 26-Elk Creek
Feb 9-Walnut Creek

PiedmontDGC is temporarily under construction and will be available soon.

Congrats AV on making the finals!



Not just making it but tearing it up once there. Great playing AV!

Great great great tourney...wait did I say how _______GREAT it was!!!!! Rusty may never forget the "Pepper experience" and us on lookers certainly will not ever forget it. RAY you make rockin' beer, many many thanks.......JOHN's POTATOES are da bomb, thanks again Biscoe your treatment of the ladies is AWESOME!! You run a great tourney. Way to go Steve for winning at poker (good times)... Congrats Skinny on a fantastic win albeit a bit bittersweet for me, but great for you nonetheless. And way to go Craig (honey) for shooting a hot new course record of 52 at Hawk Hollow. W O W...good good times :D:D:D

Great weather + great competition = GREAT TOURNAMENT! P.S. great trophies too! Any chance we can do something like that for the Loriella Challenge? John thanks for all the time you put in and "thank you" to your family for allowing us to come and play in their backyard.

results and ratings are up- the payouts aren't listed as i left them at home this morning- i will correct tomorrow a.m.

the players are listed in the correct order of finish but the "place" column is screwy for some reason- if anyone knows how to remedy that i will be happy to do it too.

AWESOME! HH! Thanks John and Mom (the Bisco Biscuits rule).
GREAT shooting by the open field in the finals . Congrats Brian.

Any idea when round ratings will be posted for Bayville Bash and Mountain Jam?

For the Mountain Jam you were too slow in looking for the preliminary rankings. You're SOL now...

David Vance had the scores in by mid-morning the day after. He sent in the score sheet before the end of the week and by early last week the scores were official, so the preliminary ratings are gone. To see your rating now, you'll have to wait for the update in early November...

Yee haw another fabulous hawk hollow open is in the books, everything was ideal just like we pictured (http://www.sharkysshots.com/displayimage.php?album=104&pid=5701&slideshow=5000 ) it!

nice pictures, and congrats to AV on some great shooting

Any idea when round ratings will be posted for Bayville Bash and Mountain Jam?



When the next ratings come out - near the end of November

Nov 13th

So if I understand - shortly after a tournament there are preliminary round ratings. Once the info is sent to the PDGA the preliminary rating disappears until the next update to everyone's rating occurs. (sounds like a governmental conspiracy to me...not that I would know anything about those)

correct.

Leaving unofficial ratings online when official results are posted is one of the techinology projects with a high priority. The two systems currently do not link to each other.

Great weekend. Absolutely everything, from courses, to player's packages (homegrown, homemade smoked hot sauce in a player's pack - I'm giddy), to food, to weather, to ancillary events, to quality of play, to quality of folks, etc., etc., etc., was STELLAR!

Thanks a ton, J. Biscoe, Momma Biscoe, and everybody else that make this event a jewel on the VA disc golf calendar year after year.

i had another absolute blast. when can i register for '08?

thanks so much, john and everyone who made the event awesome again.

I just spoke with the people at NQ and they said that if you come in and tell them you are playing in the tourney they will waive the fee for playing the day before the tournament. So that would be November 2 for the AM's and November 9th for Open.

Like you needed another reason to come. It just keeps getting better. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I will be installing the practice basket this afternoon at New Quarter. It is located to the left of the path leading to the first tee, slightly in the woods. Offers some great practice angles, shots behind trees, etc.

Fall Colors Central to home planet, all systems go , thermal tiles intact, grass cut, we are ready for liftoff.

The Battle of the Blue Ridge Team Championship will be held on Saturday, November 24, 2007 at Timber Ridge DGC in Bedford, VA. Five person teams. There will be no restrictions other than that. Men will play blue tees, Ladies will play shorter tees. Just like last year everyone plays one round of stroke play in the morning. A team's best four scores count toward qualifying for the match-play round of playoffs.

Last year we had five teams--Home, Lynchburg, Charlottesville, NOVA and Roanoke. This year I'd like to see at least eight teams, hopefully more. Staunton? Christiansburg? Team GC? Team Nut? Amherst? Team Sherando? Team Spotsy? Team Richmond?

Last year team NOVA won and nobody wants that to happen again.

To all the Marines out there Happy 232nd Birthday! Below is the Commandant's Birthday Message:

1. SINCE THE BIRTH OF OUR NATION, OUR LIBERTY HAS BEEN PURCHASED BY VALIANT MEN AND WOMEN OF DEEP CONVICTION, GREAT COURAGE, AND BOLD ACTION; THE COST HAS OFTEN BEEN IN BLOOD AND TREMENDOUS SACRIFICE. AS AMERICAS SENTINELS OF FREEDOM, UNITED STATES MARINES ARE COUNTED AMONG THE FINEST LEGIONS IN THE CHRONICLES OF WAR. SINCE 1775, MARINES HAVE MARCHED BOLDLY TO THE SOUNDS OF THE GUNS AND HAVE FOUGHT FIERCELY AND HONORABLY TO DEFEAT THE SCOURGE OF TYRANNY AND TERROR. WE ARE MARINES - THAT IS WHAT WE DO.

2. IN THE WORDS OF PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY: "IN THE LONG HISTORY OF THE WORLD, ONLY A FEW GENERATIONS HAVE BEEN GRANTED THE ROLE OF DEFENDING FREEDOM IN ITS HOUR OF MAXIMUM DANGER." MAGNIFICENT HEROES FOUGHT IN THE WHEAT FIELDS OF BELLEAU WOOD, IN THE SNOWS OF THE CHOSIN, AND ON THE STREETS OF HUE CITY. YOUR GENERATION BEARS THIS OBLIGATION NOW, AND IT IS BORNE ON MIGHTY AND CAPABLE SHOULDERS. JUST LIKE THE MARINES AT BELLEAU WOOD � WE ARE ONCE AGAIN ENGAGED IN SUSTAINED OPERATIONS ASHORE. JUST LIKE AT BELLEAU WOOD - THE MARINES HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE TOUGHEST SECTOR AND HAVE PREVAILED OVER A RESILIENT AND DETERMINED ENEMY - WHO HAS MADE US PAY FOR OUR GAINS. ONCE AGAIN, AS IN ANY STRUGGLE, THE ROAD AHEAD IS FAR FROM CERTAIN, BUT AS MARINES, WE ARE NOT DISSUADED BY THE CHALLENGES OF WAR OR THE TOUGH CONDITIONS OF A WARRIOR'S LIFE. INDEED, WE DON'T JUST ACCEPT OUR DESTINY - WE SHAPE IT.

3. ON OUR 232ND BIRTHDAY, TO EVERY MARINE - THOSE STILL IN UNIFORM AND THOSE WHO HAVE SERVED HONORABLY IN THE PAST - BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU DO. KNOW THAT YOUR CITIZENSHIP DUES HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL; YOU ARE PART OF THIS NATION'S ELITE WARRIOR CLASS. CHERISH OUR FAMILIES WHO OFFER MARVELOUS SUPPORT, ABIDING RESOLVE, AND STEADFAST PATIENCE. REMEMBER THOSE WHO HAVE SERVED AND THOSE WHO HAVE FALLEN - THEIR NAMES ARE CHISELED ON THE ROLL CALL OF AMERICA'S HEROES. THOSE WHO HAVE CARRIED THE BATTLE COLORS OF OUR CORPS HAVE FORGED OUR HERITAGE, AND TODAY'S GENERATION OF LEATHERNECKS CHART OUR FUTURE. CARRY THE COLORS WITH PRIDE; CARRY THEM WITH HONOR.

4. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARINES! SEMPER FIDELIS, JAMES T. CONWAY, GENERAL, U.S. MARINE CORPS, COMMANDANT OF THE MARINE CORPS

The four teams with the lowest total score will make the afternoon semifinals. Again, only the top five players from each team , according to score will compete in the playoffs. Teams will be seeded by total score, with lowest total score getting the best team seed. Ties for team seeding will be broken by lowest individual score. Each playoff team will be seeded by the individual morning scores of the the five players. Ties for individual seeding will be broken by the Zadereky Rule (reverse alphabetical order).

The playoffs will be twelve holes of singles play between teams. Team seeded 1 will play Team 4. Team 2 will play Team 3. Like individuals seeds will play against each other in match-play format (hole-by-hole scoring). For example, Team 1�s seed 1 will play Team 4�s seed 1. Starting holes will be randomly drawn. Their will be no ties: if competitors are tied after twelve holes then they will have a sudden-death playoff.

Does that mean you are going to make it out this year Chris?



No, it really means that I was going to ride out to Appomatox next Saturday to look at a GTO and thought I would play Elk Creek if nothing was going on there.

Thankfully, the BRAWL series has grown into it's own and we no longer have to rely on Mr. Hysell's celebrity appearances to bolster attendance. I do, though, miss seeing first hand those 250' side arm approaches into an iced over green that skip once then stop completely on the ice pack.

Well said, buddy.

Hysell had his first lifetime spelling error. I can't believe that tEAM tRIM didn't pick up on that.

I miss Chris.

Just like Glenry is to JG, and Mitch Hoeppner is to Dwight Woods. I wish Chris was my "disc golf dad."

Wanna come throw some disc...(sniffle)... dad?

The pics from the Fall Colors players party are posted online for your viewing pleasure! Just go to... http://www.kodakgallery.com/Slideshow.js...fbh4nk&Ux=0 (http://www.kodakgallery.com/Slideshow.jsp?mode=fromshare&Uc=lwst97v.4txs256f&U y=fbh4nk&Ux=0)
Thanks for another great time!!!

The dream season continues. Gibbs can't keep that halftime lead anymore, and I don't think there is a O-lineman in football who can handle DeMarcus Ware.

yeah , no doubt!! Ware is a maniac!!

Grange "leftovers" turnie on Saturday so I hear. Is that a doubles tournament or singles, what's the format?
Thanks

byop doubles i believe- no idea on format other than that.

did i read the qualifying list correctly from usdgc.com?

va open is not a qualifier next year, neither is west va open?

wow..what happened?

no qualifiers in MD, VA, WV...

there is one in NC, but that is in Charlotte...quite a drive.

i guess it will make those state qualifiers even more competitive, but i bet a lot of talented golfers from these states will be left out of the 2008 tournament.

anyone know why the tournaments were dropped or why nothing was added in the area as it's been since the qualifying began?

i thought there was to be some switching back and forth between the v.o. and the dogwood- evidently i was incorrect, not surprising however that charlotte can create a new event and grab the spot- maybe they'll hold monday qualifying at the grange.

don't know a thing about the wvo being out for this year however.

...after all, charlotte and atlanta are at least 3 hours apart.

so no qualifiers in between a triangle formed by leicester, columbus, and charlotte... neat.

...and 4 euro-qualifiers for crying out loud!!!

I am not sure I completely understand the selection process for Qualifiers.

In the case of Charlotte, they have been begging for a Q for years.

As for the Q in this region I have been told that it was always intended for it to move from year to year. We just got spoiled by having it at the Crosstown for the first 8 years.

Ronnie mark your calendar- VA USDGC qualifiers will again be the Golden Horseshoe Open and the Spotsy Summer Open July 12 and 13.

In the case of Charlotte, they have been begging for a Q for years.





charlotte already has one the monday before usdgc. 5 spots available just like all the rest.

To be brutally honest I would say that the Qualifiers should be regionally balanced.

By that I meant there should be some kind of parameters that balance how close together or far apart they should be.

A good example this year was the VA Open and the WV Open. The driving distance between them were the closest 2 Qualifiers in the U.S.

In that same vein I don't think there should be 2 Qualifiers in the same weekend (WVO and SN).

I have my fire proof suit on so please flame away.

Kirk

John,

The Monday Qualifier gains nothing for the CLT club. They are hoping the Qualifier (as I always have in Raleigh) would entice additional players to come to their event.

Kirk

i agree 100% that the vo and wvo were too close together and should not have both been included in the same year- similar to charlotte and atlanta for 2008.

as far as the qualifier status attracting players to the events i would say that the qualifier status should be reserved for events that can draw players on their own which the dogwood historically has with the exception of a glitch or two.

the monday qualifier gains the charlotte players/club MORE than having a qualifier gains other places- they can attempt to qualify multiple times on the SAME DAY without having to spend time/$ on travel, etc- just pay another entry fee and take another shot.

here's a map of all the USDGC qualifiers for 2008 (i just mapped to the cities and I left japan out)

just as an FYI for people talking about how close each place is/isnt... etc.

now back to our regularly scheduled program...

Pohick Old School - this weekend Ams Saturday, Pros Sunday

Loriella Christmas Charity Tournament- Saturday 12/8

el bumpo.

definitely OLD.

careful there sonny!!

- i'm not that old, i'm only 42 with the back of a 70 year old. :(

btw i'm pretty sure the last time you and i were on the same course at the same time for a tournament round i took you down!!! :D:p (of course it was my best round in years according to the rating system, and you did beat me for the whole event, but hey, i gotta take it where i can get it)

All good, I still RespecTT my ELDERS

as an added incentive to come out- we will be setting up a different first 4 holes of the course for Saturday ONLY. these are changes we are considering installing long term and we thought people would like to see them/offer input. (of course i will ignore your input if i don't like it )

we will now be holding a chili cook-off for lunch at saturday's event- i believe we have 5 chefs signed up already, we will also be selling bowls of our various concoctions to benefit the food bank.

anyone interested in bringing chili bring it on!!! we will have electricity to the shelter so crock pots or electric hot plates will be the order of the day for keeping the hotness hot. chili cook-off winner will receive a lovely prize package sponsored by moi.

Bring your diapers, boys & girls. This could get messy!

Unlike today, no snow on Sat. Forecast is 61 degrees and light winds(according to the weather channel).

4 new holes to play, chili cook off, opportunity to raise money for the food bank, great weather, it just keeps getting better and better!!

The Piedmont Disc Golf Club is proud to announce BRAWL IV, sponsored by INNOVA! The league will consist of eight one-day tournaments that run on Saturdays from December 8, 2007 through February 16, 2008. BRAWL IV will showcase the courses of western Virginia including Greene County Park in Stanardsville, Walnut Creek Park in Charlottesville, Elk Creek DGC in Appomattox, Peaks View Park in Lynchburg, Fishburn Park in Roanoke, Golden Hills in Christiansburg and Timber Ridge in Bedford and Franklin County Park in Rocky Mount. The awards ceremony will be held after completion of the final tournament at Timber Ridge.
Each tournament is two rounds. Registration ends at 9:30, followed by a brief players' meeting, and tee off at 10:00 sharp. Open $20, Am/Ladies/Junior $10. Ams prizes will consist of Innova discs.
BRAWL IV is a points series with a simple format. Four divisions will be offered (Open, Ladies, Amateur and Junior <14). A player receives one point for entering, one point for each person beaten within your division, and bonus points for the top 5 finishers (7-1st, 4-2nd, 3-3rd-2-4th,1-5th.) Only a player's best six finishes may be used in the final results.
A portion of the entry fee at each one-day tournament will be withheld from the Open and Am divisions.

Thanks

what's up with fishburn?

That's one of my dominant places

new holes- help decide their fate.!!

brangelina!!

chili!!!

live nude!!!

charity!!!!!!!!!!

BCS!!!

Chris Hysell guest appearance!!!!! how long until he learns to throw lefty???

The course at Greene County is having hardwood timbered and will likely be pulled. It is a sad day. The BRAWL was supposed to be there next Saturday. It will have to be moved. I'll try to make a decision by tonight. Thanks

That is sad. Sad that all those baskets were paid for by a corporate sponsor, then the local government decides to pull the course after what, 3 or 4 years at most?

i don't think the pulling of the course is permanent, only while the logging is going on. apparently it will only be the last 6-7 holes being timbered as well. in the long run it may result in a more diverse course.

Loriella Charity Tournament: Saturday 8 December.

Tournament will raise money for Fredericksburg Area Food Bank.

Entry Fees: Open: $25 and 2 cans of food / Am $15 and 2 cans of food. (Add $5 if you don't bring 2 cans of food.) $10 from each entry fee and canned goods will go to Food Bank.

I sure hope a lot of Ams are planning to show up because there is going to be a lot of plastice available. You pro's too - Biscoe needs to find out where he stands in regards to his current playing capability - plus he wants to make his wallet lighter too.

Hey John, I will be there saturday. I am looking forward to it. While I am on here, did anyone play Pohick, haven't heard or seen any results. Thanks. Rruufff!!

Pohick was a blast! I played the pro day and the turn out was kind of low but we divided up nicely into 3 divisions, 6 open, 5 masters, 6 GM's Cashers: Open Dean Pheifer, DUB, Erik Masters: G hall Glenery M Hall GM Will, Sharky ;) Dan Thessen
I heard the Am day drew 62 :eek:

Dave ran a great turney, :cool: now get those scores in.

A big thank you to all the disc golfers who came out today! Weather looked pretty iffy first thing this morning but turned out to be a beautiful day. Here's the news from the course:
Chili cook off winner: John Biscoe, 2d place tie: Tim Haynes & Rick Graves
23 players
57 cans of food
$505 dollars to be donated to Fredericksburg Area Food bank
Good comments about the hole that we played as hole 1, mixed comments about the other new holes. More info as time goes by.
Open: Ian Liddell
Am: Brandon Kilby
Ladies Am: Sheila
Junior: Rhett Fisher

Oh yea - five people beat Biscoe :eek:

to reiterate the important stuff:

Chili cook off winner: John Biscoe

57 cans of food
$505 dollars to be donated to Fredericksburg Area Food bank

...and I kept my streak of whipping Erik Smith alive.

Likewise in Roanoke today, the sky was iffy early but the afternoon was simply beautiful. 45 players (28 am, 2 ladies & 15 pro I think) competed on the temporary course at Fishburn Park. AV won open, Rene won am, and Wendy won ladies. The major announcement was that next Saturday's BRAWL event will be held in Bedford, on the Big Branch side of Vince's place, see everyone there. (Next's Saturday's event was previously scheduled for the Greene County course, but it has since been temporarily shut-down per the posts back up-thread)

Next week's BRAWL is at Big Branch instead of Greene County. Spread the word and put up those new flyers. Thanks

Next week the tournament is at Big Branch in Bedford, not Greene County. Please spread the word. This means you, cyber-geeks! Remember all those that weren't at Fishburn or that don't have the Internet. Thanks for your help.

VW

from BRAWL headquarters...


Hello disc golfers! Once again, I unfortunately have to change the venue of the BRAWL tomorrow. We will have to play the Timber Ridge course instead of Big Branch due to circumstances. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I will make a decision on what to do about the last tournament tonight. It will either be at Big Branch or Timber Ridge, with the finals being at Timber Ridge. Thanks for your patience. Please spread the word. Can someone cut and paste this to the message boards? I don't have time today. Thanks.

The weather is looking better for tomorrow. It's not supposed to start doing anything until the afternoon. We will get this tournament over quick so everyone will get home safe. We may have to shorten the second round to nine holes as had happened in the past. Thanks


Vince Whorley

Sounds like the BRAWL is off to a ROCKY Mountain start!

Nothing we can't handle. Where have you been Jimmy, we've missed seeing you down here.

A big thanks goes out to whorley for hosting the event at late notice. The course was in the best shape that I have ever seen, and the weather only made things more of a challenge, espically the drive home. I had my windshield freeze over a couple of times, but the roads were decent. See everyone in 2 weeks at Peaks View.

Go Cowboys!

Chris-
What is up for the Richmond Doubles next month?
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks!

PiedmontDGC.org is up and running finally! Thanks for your patience. Please note that it's not dotcom anymore. Please update all links if you have any. Thanks.

Sweet, thanks John!

for Spotsy Winter League 1/12 we will unveil the new 27 hole layout at Hawk Hollow at which point it will remain in the ground. The added 9 holes will play as par 31 to make total par for 27 94. Old holes won't be re-numbered, we will just add letter holes in a couple of spots so there will be the option of playing 18 or 27 at any given time.

are the holes similar to those we have played in the VTI?

they are most similar to what we played the first year. there will be 3 between 9-10, 1 between 15-16, and 5 between 14-15. all 5 of the ones between 14-15 will be in the pasture side of the field beyond the corral rather than partially in the corn field. two of them will be the same holes as used that first year (the second one and the one to the corral).

nice the corral hole (that was a par 4) was a fun hole!!

I guess Greene County will be back into the ground by april. What are the thoughts for the ODDS sch? So many new courses in VA now...... doesn't look like there is any room on the sch for them to have an event.

greene county is currently in wait and see mode- ODDS schedule will be hashed out soon- probably for release first week in january. schedule is darn crowded- how things have changed since one pdga event in 1995.

schedule is darn crowded- how things have changed since one pdga event in 1995.



and it is a GREAT problem we have.

agreed.

...best wishes to all!!

And the same to you!!

John
Are you gonna hang in there as our co-ordinator? I think most of us are hoping you will.

who is the new VA cord?

there is no new coordinator- my term has one more year. at this point i don't think i will accept re-election however. the job gets bigger every year when i keep wanting it to get smaller.

Are you ready to BRAWL? The BRAWL comes to Peaks View in Lynchburg on Saturday. The forecast is looking good! We'll play two quick rounds probably without a lunch break. The tournament should be finished by 1:00. We're looking for a large tournout for this one.

Congrats to Whorley on getting his first BRAWL win since 2006, a long over-due win for sure. There was a nice turn-out of 43 players for the event today in Lynchburg, but I'd say next week at Golden Hills there will be at least 50 in attendence.

The BRAWL at Peaks View Park is in the books. Thanks to all that came out set a record for attendance for any Peaks View Park tournament with 42 folks competing. Results are up.

83 and a playoff? Just like when I played there. Except I won the playoff. Did you throw the roller for the win?

So John, if you leave your seat then who do you feel would be the best to take it?

I vote for Glenry

hysell has always been my choice but i don't think he wants it- i have also been trying to talk mike august into it. vince was a good candidate but he messed it up with the baby taking up his time.

perhaps we should get a list of nominees started.

Hysell, cannon, whorley, vance...?

Well i'll make it easy on all of you. I don't want it. I would have been able to do it before but now with the amount of hours I work, I just don't think I would be able to take on anything else in my life. Plus, i'm a procrastinator. Where are the Winter Doubles flyers? I'll do them tonight or tomorrow.

If there is a nomination process, I nominate Tommy D

there is no formal nomination process however tossing it around here definitely will help give everyone a feel for it. i believe players need to request to be placed on the ballot, no idea when the cut-off for that is but sometime in the fall i'm sure.

You've been THE guy for so long, that you forgot what happens now with the elections. :eek:

The new coordinators START on Sept.1st now (to help with the coming years scheduling) and election results are announced at worlds(maybe sooner).
The ballots go out electronically to be voted on with the regular PDGA elections(or you have to request by mail if you have no email)around mid June.
You had until like mid May to announce in '07 and you just sent a little bio about yourself and why you wish to be coordinator.

Then after you get trounced in the election (like I did), you wait for the newly elected guy to resign 2 weeks later,(like I did) and then you are the new state coordinator (like I am :D)

Or you could just let John keep doing it , as you all know noone else but him wants to deal with all the BS that goes along with being a state coordinator, and everyone will just write him in anyways. :eek: :D

I would be willing to throw my hat in, but I'm doubtfull that I would be elected.

what is the formal process for nominating people...or can big headed asses, just nominate themselves?

Also, Richmond is finally getting on its way to having a formal club that hopefully will be worth a crap.

We are having our innaugural bagtag challenge on the 27th at Bryan park, to help get Richmonders moving and shaking. Registration is at 8am and tee 9 we will throw the yellows in the am and then the blues after lunch. Between rounds we are going to have our first club meeting of the year and hopefully elect new officers.

20$ will get you a bagtag and your membership into the club.
With luck and if the response is large enough in advance then we will provide some BBQ for lunch.

also, on the 13th at Bryan park is a triple doubles event.
pick your partner for rounds of DDC, Golf, and MTA
this is a no cost event and therefore, no prizes, but bragging rights are what it is all about anyways.

from there we are all looking forward to Hyzells winter doubles.
on the 19th.

i'm pretty sure big-headed asses can nominate themselves, i too was once a big-headed [censored] who nominated himself.(now i'm a big-headed [censored] who needs to divest himself of a dg responsibility or two). i have been elected twice when not on the ballot.

i will try in the next couple of weeks to come up with a realistic list of what is actually entailed in the job and put it up for more discussion. i'm currently working on getting ODDS together and a proposal for dodge to give the ORG.

Scores are up. 51 people-new record. Somebody double check my math. I'm tired.

51 people is a good amount. That's also the largest amount that my weekly has drawn. Keep up the good work.

there will be a minimum of $1000 in cash and prizes available to the winner's of this year's Spotsy Slam- a combination of the Loriella Challenge, Virginia Open, and Hawk Hollow Open.

players must participate in all 3 events to qualify- total strokes will determine the champions. (unless i change my mind prior to loriella)

divisions awarded will likely be open, ladies, masters, advanced, advanced masters, ladies advanced. (sharky- i will decide about gm soon)

sponsored by Biscoe, Vegan Ray, Triple Disc, and C&F Mortgage.

look for some fancy merchandise for sale soon to support this scheme.

skinner won all 3 events last year in mpo.

It's that time again. Sorry it took this long for a flyer. I have good news. I will be there no matter what. I may require a little help. I get my MRI on Friday and a follow up on Tuesday. It's possible but a little unlikey that my surgery will be scheduled before next weekend.



15TH ANNUAL WINTER

Hello Virginia! As some of you might know, a small group of us Southwest Virginia diehards have been busy over the past few months installing an 18 hole course located at The Franklin County Recreation Park in Rocky Mount, VA. Well, the time to break this baby in is fastly approaching. We will be hosting a tournament there on Saturday, January 19, which will be the 4th event in the madly-popular BRAWL series staged annually in the area. 2 rounds of 18 holes starting at 10:00am sharp (reg. ends @ 9:40am, players meeting @ 9:41am) with pro($20), am($10), ladies($10), and junior($10) divisions offered. Rocky Mount is located on US 220 approx. 25 miles south of Roanoke, VA and 40 miles north of the North Carolina state line, so we would like to see some of our friends "south of the border" make an appearance. The course itself is very challenging, a good mix of open, woods, legnth, finesse, and elevation, playing to an am par of 62. Feel free to IM me with any specific questions.

Team Spotsy VTI Team Tryouts will be held on Sunday 24 February at 1000 at Hawk Hollow. Format will be one round of 27 holes.

Requirements for tryouts:

Member of Spotsylvania Disc Golf Club (Dues are $15 and must be paid prior to start of tryout round)
In order to raise money for the club there will be a $10 fee to participate in the tryout which also must be paid prior to start of tryout.
No payout upon completion of the tryout.

At least 6 of the 8 male players must be from the Spotsylvania / Fredericksburg area. Additionally the masters division is age protected so at least 2 of the eight players must be at least 40 years of age on or before 31 December 2008. (So this means if there are not at least two players of masters age that qualify in the top 8 positions, then the top two masters players regardless of how they finish on the day of the tryout will be on the team.)

The following players are "grandfathered" as previous members of team Spotsy: Lugo, Todd, Clements, Hasnain. Although grandfathered, if they desire to compete on team spotsy they have to qualify for one of the positions on the day of the tryout.

For those that qualify as team members, the entry fee will be $40 to compete in the VTI.

Bryan Park - Triple Event Doubles

Sunday, Jan. 13, 2008 - Meet 8:30AM at Kiosk - Bring a partner or just show up and get a partner.


Sorry this is soooo late, but since the organizers didnt put it up I figured I would.
First event: DDC (Double Disc Court) Starts at 9:00 on nearest soccer field just beyond playground. Beginners welcome. Play all other teams. Kind of like 2 on 2 volleyball without the net or ball. 2 discs going back and forth at the same time. Quick games to eleven. Whistle blows at 12 noon to end all games and start golf.
Second Event: 18 holes Disc Golf. Starts at 12 noon. Same Partners. Doubles Captains choice from the Blue Tees.
Third and final event: 3 pm MTA (maximum time aloft). Back out to the soccer fields. Same partners, each player gets 5 timed throws. Best time for both players added together. Throws must be caught with one hand.

This tournament is just for fun. No ribbons, no prizes, no cost. If you are not familiar with the field events, it will be a good opportunity to learn them, and also good practice for the State Tournament in Fredericksburg, which includes DDC, MTA, Distance, Accuracy, Golf, and Freestyle events. If it is a success, two more will take place the 2nd Sunday of Feb. and March, for more practice before the States in April.

Just to keep it interesting, a scoring system will be attempted to determine the overall winning team with the most points. Each game of DDC won is worth 10 points. Each stroke below par(62) in golf is worth 10 points. Each second of your best MTA time is worth 10 points. Plus a 25 point bonus CTP on hole 11. Way too much fun!

Hey ya'll, we're here (http://www.pdga.com/course/courses_by_city.php?id=2916). Hope to see you soon.

I would love to play an event in Rocky Mount, cant make the Brawl this weekend, but would like to get to something. Any PDGAs planned?

Course sounds nice.

Also if you get the chance come south of the border and play Reidsville, NC at Lake Reidsville...just 20 mins. south of Danville.

I'll be in the Hampton Roads area Jan 31 - Feb 5. Are there any minis or events planned for this time?

...or you can play the 11th (12th?) annual Super Doubles event- Pratt and Loriella Parks in Fredericksburg that same day.

My surgery is scheduled for January 30th. Part of the procedure calls for them to relocate the ligaments on my right bicep from the top of my shoulder to the side. The good money says that I will be back and playing before the 1st ODDS event or else I will be playing lefty.

My surgery is scheduled for January 30th.


Introducing VA's newest Ladies Masters player. Watch out Donna

...or else I will be playing lefty.


Let me know if you need some advice on that. Playing lefty is the most fun I've had playing disc golf in years. Seriously. That and almost beating C. Hunter last year lefty at Elk Creek.

I could learn lefty. I think the biggest problem would be getting my steps right.

How far (time) is walnut creek park from Chessapeake?
How much is it to play?
What is the format?

From Chesapeake, Walnut Creek is about 3 hours, max. All but the last 15 minutes is Interstate 64.

The link above will tell you about format and cost.

It seems to snow frequently @ this tournament

The weather forecast is getting more favorable by the minute for the BRAWL event in Rocky Mount (http://www.pdga.com/course/courses_by_city.php?id=2916) tomorrow. The latest is a 50% chance of less than 1 inch of acumulation. Hope everyone in the region can make it out to christen this cool course.

sorry, we all got business in Richmond tomorrow.

Winter Dbls time

...you would think the event was in wisconsin instead of richmond with the weather it's had over the years- even worse than buckhorn if you go way back.

I got this...
Back in 2000, it was so foul, rain,snow, a real mess..
so between rounds there's this little neighborhood laundromat between Dorey and Gilles, we roll in thinking Hell yeah we gonna get some dry clothes and BAM, this place is crawling with Bayvillans and us! The locals were freakin' out, no washing, just drying, minis flying..

Winter Doubles is cool, don't miss it...

Good pizza and Subs next door too...

Way to represent team BOOOOM!!! Drock and Hunter nice shootn. As for all you that traveled to Richmond, thanks. It made for a great turnout. And kudos to Chris for allowing it to snow.

It's good to have a Richmond Champion Team. It's been a while. Thanks Derek and Hunter for representing.

Sorry about the snow. The weather typically clears up when I step on the course.

Scores are up thanks to all who came. Thanks to the Rocky Mount crew for getting the course in great shape. Thanks to Jeff for running the tournament. This course is sweet if you've never played it. After a little more grooming it will easily be top 10 in VA in my opinion.

The BRAWL is at Elk Creek next week. I'd like to see some of those Blackstone and Richmond boys representing.

Sounds InTysing...

My instinct tells me Jeff will soon be at that age indicated by a "5" and a zero. :D

modg, fn randy, hunter, chris (the legend) hysell and the like. RRufff?

Yeah, I just wanted him to go on the record. Then again, I'm not too far behind him.

Vince, I will not be there. My arm is shot, ruined, toast. I can no longer throw a sidearm because of shoulder pain. My backhand is average at best. A course like Elk Creek requires accuracy that I don't have right now. You'll have to wait like everyone else to see if my surgery next week will fix it. If it doesn't then i'm done.

Wah wah wah...as I recall, gualdoni shot better than I did using his left hand after his surgery. It seems that Vince beat Hunter with his left hand at elk creek. So it seems to me that if you want to live up to your montra, than you will just have to step up and start throwing left handed for a while.

...at least long enough for the darn surgery to heal this time!!!!
... and your backhand is mediocre at best- not average!! :p

your motto can be ... lefty at loriella

Mediocre at best is good enough to beat most of you clowns. I'll be out this year playing am.

Back to your roots...

That's gold.

OK - on the record, yes, next year (2009) will be the big Five O. Even contemplating whether I really want to play tournaments. Would be nice to play and not have to pay...I guess that's what a casual round is for.

Many, many thanks to all 62 players who came out and supported the 11th Annual Ice Bowl at New Quarter Park today. I was very surprised and happy we had 31 Open, Advanced and Intermediate Teams. Special thanks to all the teams from Richmond and my brothers from Bayville and Newport News for helping raise nearly 500 lbs. of food and $1000 cash for the York County Food Closet. You guys are the best. You all did a good thing today and you should be proud of it.

Thanks again!

You didn't mention the winners John. Team Boom wins again.

I thought for sure I would see an open doubles group break 50 from the blue tees, but it was not to be. 51 was the best score.

Thanks again for raising $1000 and almost 500 lbs. of food. :D

wow, great job Jon Roy and newport news!

Thanks to everyone who came out and supported the Blue Ridge Disc Golf Ice Bowl at Walnut Creek!

We had 42 players, raised $430 for the Arc of the Piedmont and the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank and collected 290 lbs of food...

Jesse Pritchard used numerous mulligans (Extra cans to save your can) to fend off Rene Devito, David Vance, Brian Sward, and Terry West.

On the ladies side, Donna Raines held off Dee Proffitt whose white bean chicken chili won top honors in the Chili Cookoff for lunch...

saw the results...congrats John Biscoe for cashing.

hunh?????????? glad to have cashed but i didnt even play.

who won by the way?? i have a feeling ronnie was looking at last years results.

mt jam date is pending uva football schedule release.

Are there any tourneys at Munden Point this year? I travel to VA for work often and want to try to play a tourney there. Played it 3 times for the first time yesterday and shot an overall -17 short to short, (-10 best round). How would that compare to others on that course?

no tourneys to my knowledge although someone from down there may know otherwise. no idea on the scores either- i've been down there once and didn't play the whole course then.

saw the results...congrats John Biscoe for cashing.



Thanks to all who came out to the Super Doubles. 35 teams! And yes congrats to team John Biscoe for cashing!

what are we going to do next year if we have more than 36 teams? Should plans be made to have pros and ams start at different courses and then switch for the afternoon round, or take a chance that less than 36 teams will come to play? Will it depend on the weather - this year it was great - is that why so many teams came out? Would you have come out if it was cold, snowy, wet?

who won by the way?? i have a feeling ronnie was looking at last years results.



Naved and JG won. The Bayvillians reign has ended....for now.

Does anyone see Dave Henrickson anymore? He doesn't return emails and his phone voicemail is full. He must have taken the bag and disc money and skipped town.

50 Ams have pre-registered, that leaves 22 spots left for Satuday 1 March. If you think you want to play - register now.

25 PROS have pre-registered, so that leaves 47 spots left for Sunday 2 March.

bagger pitts is in... hmmm... one more step towards retirement for me.

John, you won't finish last. That spot is reserved for me.
