Good Food, Cold Beer, Great Friends and a weekend of wonderful weather and GREAT FUN playin Disc Golf....

New tag line coming: 2nd in the WORLD :D:D

A nice write-up in the Austin Stateman on the World's event: http://www.statesman.com/search/content/news/stories/local/04/14/0414discgolf.html

So here's the deal. I'd like to do the Ace Race in '08.

Since I'll be flying to Chicago on Sunday and in Chicago on Wednesday (a typical schedule), I haven't joined with the RR club thought I've played an amateur round at Wilco once on a Sunday. I started the Central Texas DiscGolf Meetup for Saturday play. One of our guys got 2 aces in the last week but most of us hackers still celebrate par. I consider us a feeder group. When our guys get really good, I'll send them to you. If you have players who slow you down with their multiple bogeys and short throws, they'd probably fit right in with our Saturday group. We play a lot of doubles anyway and we've never had a pay mini. I have a link on our "about us" page to your club.

I'd like to sign up to do the Discraft Ace Race in '08 cause it was a lot of fun last year. The Rivery is one of my favorite courses so that would be the likely place. I'd like to do it in October but not interfere with Outlaws. Would you guys be OK with that? Do you know yet when Outlaws will be? I also emailed Troy who did the Ace Race last year and he doesn't think he's going to do it this year.

How do you get a park to let you do a tournament? Just call them up and ask? Any advice is appreciated? We would want to help with a course cleanup or two before the event.

For those who don't know, everybody throws one disc only in the ace race and you record ace, metal, or nothing. The prizes, all merchandise, go to the player who aced or there's runoffs if there's a tie like having CTP contests. It's very newbie friendly because if you throw and the disc goes 10 feet, you've tied with 90% of the people on the hole because they also didn't hit metal. Everybody pays $25 and gets two new prototypes from Discraft, a Discraft hat, and a mini. Modified tees are set out for every hole that are between 180 and 250 feet. A lot of the holes at the Rivery are already in that range. I think only 4 holes would have to be modified and some great holes are less than that range. Do you think the Rivery is a good course for this? Even if the holes are shorter, there's a lot of trees out there so you don't hit metal a lot. Well, at least our group doesn't.


Thanks for your input,
John Gravitt
Central Texas Disc Golf Meetup (http://discgolf.meetup.com/48/ )

what is going on in RR this month

round rock news (http://www.roundrocktexas.gov/home/index.asp?page=1277)

OK Kids - it's our big day. The member tags are finally here! So after many weeks of asking ya'll to confirm that a. you wanted your tag, & b. the number we have is the same as what you think your member # is - they're here. If your tag did not get ordered - I'm sorry, we did our best. If your number does not match our list - I'm sorry, we did our best. (We have been asking ya'll to confirm for weeks).

The tags are in numerical order with the member # list - those that have been paid for are marked. If you'd like your tag, they will be available for pick up & purchase ($5) from me Wednesday & Thursday or @ CoTo from Edman or I.

If your tag was not ordered, there is a list, we will be happy to make another tag purchase. Please understand small orders will not be at the same discounted price.

KICK DONKEY!

KICK DONKEY!



Shirts will be ordered this week & should take less than a week for delivery... What do ya'll think about ordering multipile colors of the same print instead of all one color like in the past?

multipile is always nice.
Did I order a shirt?

Doubt it - will have to check spreadsheet @ home. No one needs to pre order (although some people paid for everything when they re-newed), we'll be getting 50-100 (I think) & will have this style for the next 2 years (I think) or until they run out. :)

sheet shows V has not paid for shirt only renewal and tag..

thank you sir!

u r welcome.

hey V can I borrow the range finder measuring thingy I need to remeasure rivery to make score cards. please let me know otherwise I will walk it with the wheel. thanks

Yes!! Tags are in the house!!

multipile colors sounds great to me.......i like red blue green white anything but black!! Black gets really hot in the summer and thats what we have the most of around here, heat!! :o

I'm sure there will be a pink one for you BigPinkie. One for LT as well. :D

We lived thru the storm last nite, even with a funnel cloud right over the house..had to get in the closet with wife and dogs for about 20-mins last nite as the roar of the tornado was getting louder and closer with each passing minute...received no damage from the 1/4 size hail and high winds.....Are all of yall ok after last nite???.......Man that was a close one for us!!! :) ;)

i got almost all the way home (Leander west of 183) when my wife called and i had to turn around and pick up her son from work at 1890 Ranch. While on New Hope between 183 and 183-A, it started to hail. Hard. Made it to 183-a/1431 underpass till it went by. Picked up son at 1890 Ranch. As we pull out of lot, starts to hail again even harder. High tail it back to 183a/1431 underpass. Call home. Wife's in closet, won't go out even to look at radar. I made decision to haul [censored] back home. New Hope is by now freaking flooded with at least 1' of water streaming. Good thing i don't have a low/small car! Plowed through it all w/o stalling or planing thank goodness and finally got home.

What an adventurous Wednesday evening it was! :-)

And you wonder why I keep a small flask of Vodka in the car....wonder no more! ;)

Glad to hear you are ok John EEEEEEEEEEE....as that was one heck of storm for us Leander/Cedar Park folks...

who is going to Waco?
I got a kitchen pass....my girl si heading to Michagan for 10 days. And will be gone durning Waco.

Brandi is cool!! Last night in the longest ever recorded round @ Rivery (3 freakin' hours on a pitch & puTT, what the hell), Brandi hit her 1st metal. Skiped & almost ace (pan only) #11 (the one in the rocks)!! Nice shot Lady!! :)

that is a good shot .. nice

I've had a few skiped shots as well, half as much skip as the original.

Anyone know how hes doing?

I have heard he plays out at Jon's allot. so he must be doing alright

Went and had "lunch" at Ricky's marker today.....I can only hope to be thought of as he does after I am gone.
Peace BRO!

I'm sure he enjoyed your visit & we will always think of you as our beloved donkey. :)

I need someone to confirm something I read on PDGA rules a while back. If you putt and the disc is suspended by the basket (stuck in the side), it is considered holing out if you remove it before it falls comes out and falls to the ground? Is that right? I stuck one in the side of hole 9 at the rock and immediately ran up and removed it before it could come loose in the wind and fall. I think the old rules years ago said you had to pull it through into the basket and then remove it. As I understand it now you just have to remove it before it comes loose and falls. Am I right?

you are right you have to get to it before it falls out and there is no rule about pulling it through... nice hussel on that one by the way. :D

Fastest I've moved since Sept. 2007

LT, it has to come to rest before you can remove it. If it is still moving, squeezing through or out of the basket, or teetering on the rim, you shouldn't touch it until it stops. Then quickly grab it before it starts moving again.

Disc Entrapment Devices: In order to hole out, the thrower must release the disc and it must come to rest supported by the chains or within one of the entrapment sections. This includes a disc wedged into or hanging from the lower entrapment section but excludes a disc resting on top of, or hanging outside of, the upper entrapment section. The disc must also remain within the chains or entrapment sections until removed.

OK kids another month & more progress for the Double R Disc Golf Club.

Member tags are in & being distributed as we see you. For the most part, these are coming from Edman & I; if you need your tag, let me know - they're $5 if you're not a new member or didn't pay for them when you renewed. Tee shirts will be in by the SOLO, if you've paid, we'll get them to you there & if not they'll be available for $10 each (included in new membership).

The Sunday ace pot is holding strong @ $500 with a $230 (and growing) back up after that one is hit. We've added a bounty to a few holes - current members $50 for - a 3 on 4 or a 2 on 5 @ the Rock; 3 on 10 @ Wilco; & a 2 on 12 @ Rivery. Wednesday is still @ $300 for Club members w/$1500 in back ups (on per Wednesday) & added bounties on 4 & 5 (same as on Sunday).

We are committed to another $100 in merchandise to the HOTT tour & are accepting donations all the time (please give merchandise to any Cabinet member & they'll forward the items to me - remember it does not have to be disc golf related.

The Club has purchased the merchandise to be used for payout @ the SOLO on June 15th & we will be holding 2 work days prior to the event. This & next Saturday (7th & 14th) starting @ 9:00, bring loppers, weed eaters, mowers, gloves, etc (no chain saws) the Club will provide lunch & Ware will have some beer for after. We are also in need of the corrugated plastic signs that are used to post sponsor info. We borrowed them from Team Justice for TWC, but need to get a set of 36 for the Club (if you have a resource, let me know - they look to be about $130 for the set including wire stands) The Sunday ace pot will be open to current Club members during the morning round @ SOLO - that mean the $5 per player & $500 Club ace pot could be yours!!

We have committed to installing concrete tees @ Wilco & Cat Hollow this year. With assitance from the Waterloo Disc Golf Club, Wilco is coming first. I will be meeting with the county & the course designer to asses accurate tee box locations & then we'll have it coming at us fast & furious. This is a busy tournament time of year, so every volunteer is crucial. We have most of the equipment covered, but still need a few items. Please let me know ASAP(w/in 2 weeks) if you can donate or get any of these items at a reduced rate. Roll of Wire mesh, concrete buggie, concrete tools, cordless saws all, sharp shooter, hoe, 2x6's, lots of time & patience. This will be a one day pour & will need some real commitment for 2-3 consecutive days. I will post possible dates ASAP - w/in 2 weeks. Cat Hollow will come this fall - sooner than you think - & be tons of fun.

We're looking at purchasing tags for a bag tag challenge. These will be VERY different from the member tags (ask Vinnie or Edman to see the Live Oak tag). This would be a club fund raiser & we think they would sell to you for $20 each 1/3 of that would be the price of the tag, 1/3 would go to the Club fund, & 1/3 would go to the payout in a 2 round mini in January (ams to be paid in merch). The tag would be the entry fee to the event. So what do you think? We'd have similar challenge rules to the tags we've had before & end it with the 2 round mini in Jan with a mass by division challenge (entire Advance division plays for lowest tag in that division w/merch payout to top 1/3). Would you be willing to pay $20 for that opportunity, or should we scrap the idea?

We are still working out the proposed by laws for the Club & are hoping that we can have our 1st proposal Cabinet approved by mid July. We will make them available to Club members at that time & have our 1st all member meeting the 1st Monday in August (August 4th @ 6pm, location TBA). These by laws will have to be ratified article by article by the general Club membership. We will them have an official governing document outlining Club policy & procedure as well as election protocol. We will also finish Outlaws planning at that time.

Please send any input & feedback regarding questions or needs that I've presented ASAP. Here's too seeing you in the fairway & being part of the best disc golf club in Texas. ROUND ROCK!!!!

How many of the 7 have you been paid for? :)


all of them except the one you saw at kitty :confused: :eek: :p

:eek: :eek: :eek: /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :D

news flash-you can't count an ace if your not playing a stipulated round-if your throwing 3-4 shots on every holoe and you hit a ace on your 12th hole, it doesn't count even if it was your first shot on that hole :D:o:eek:

Oops, I need to change my total.

:eek: :eek: :eek: /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :D



Funny how Carroll always starts with his mouth wide open, ends up shocked at the finish & the has to wipe the grin off his face.

-100 under par is ridiculous. this makes our sport seem like a putt putt game.
when have you ever seen scores like this in our big brother "PGA"

sport for that matter .. black eye <img

worlds this year seemed to be all about putting.

some quotes I have heard from players that went to worlds this year.

Crappy at best....I think we found a new slogan :D

:D:p :eek:

You have to be kidding me.......they really can't handle that word.........seems a few people have way to much time on their hands up there.......maybe they should pick a real course for the pro's to play instead of getting upset when people complain about the one they picked.............I have tissue's if needed... :o:o:o

great food and so was the company. we enjoyed.

ditto Larry finally glad we figured out where your lake house is comapred to my folks.. :p :) we will have to do this again once the water comes back up

What are you trying to say?? You think we are low people, how low are we?? I'm pretty sure that street walkers and intersection bumbs might be the lowest and they sure as heck don't carry disc's in their booze filled back packs....How about " will pay the lowest amount wanted by said person"? :o

are you already drinking :eek:

Anybody heard anything about scores from Moody's?

nope other than harrell got a t-shirt from the legend

anthony damon won open in playoff over matt hall, mcain won masters, laura hovey won adv woman.

THINK ABOUT THIS:

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago,
you will have $49.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG
one year ago, you will have $33.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of
shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today.

But,
if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the
beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you will
have received $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment
plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.
A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.
Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of
alcohol a year. That means that, on average, Americans get about 41
miles to the gallon! Makes you proud to be an American!

I wanted to give a big thanks to KT and MyCarrol for running the McConcrete challenge at Waterlooo this weekend. They raised $175 for the Ronald McDonald House. Good job! That took our sponsorship for this event to $425. Did anyone land on concrete during that last round. I was too busy lighting it up till the last 4 holes.

larry V on my card was about 1ft to the left. but My Carrol said no one landed on it.

Yes thank you Mike and KT

Thats easy for me to do.........my wife and I can fill up a gallon in about a week.......yall on the other hand might take a bit longer.... :o:obut what a great thing to do for kids!! And the best part is, I don't have to change my life style to do it :o

hey bigarm try and remember to save them from the hunting trip you are taking.. WOW.. :D I am already filling up an old coffee can.. :eek:

milk gallon jugs full of beer and soda can tops



Y'all are filling up milk jugs with beer and then adding soda pop tops, and then drinking them up? After chugging the jug, do you smash it on your forehead?

Man, y'all will do anything to improve at teams. ;)

Do screw on coke tops with vodka bottle caps count?

Actually Ware, it was the opposite. I stepped up and challenged them. So let's show them what the Double R is all about!! I even got half my neighborhood saving them for me...

It was an accident.......he had done that before many times... He just had to much in his system when he laid down..

guess it was only a matter of time before ads crept into the discussion board.

I will ask again tomorrow hopefully more team players will be there

I just got my magazine yesterday, and you are now famous, immortalized forever. Captured in the middle of a drive at Southern Nationals. There was no picture of Vinnie, even though he won more coin. I heard there was a nice picture of him planned, until the magazine editor heard the story of Vinnie buying everyone a free dinner after his victory, all for the small fee of five bucks. ;)

lmfao, that is funny

So I'm at my wife's Xmas party this past weekend at Lost Pines Resort (off of 71 between Bergstrom airport and Bastrop). Its dusk, we go out on the balcony to take a "break", I look out towards the Colorado river.....and WTF IS THAT? A disc golf basket? A 9 hole course? (its private) MAN disc golf is spreading like wildfire!!!

of course, when i lamented that I left my bag at home, my wife almost throws me off the balcony for even thinking about it :D:D

Yes an ol time Waterloo player owns the course...not much to it but he likes ie

does anyone know someone who cleans house professionally

K T & Brandi both used to, not sure now.

Hope everyone is happy and full of good cheer/beer. See some of you on Friday.

headed out of town for a week-holla when I get back--happy new years to all

Not yet- maybe 2 more months

Homebrew had his baby girl this am. They are at St Davids room 317 big baby girl almost 10lbs. baby and mom are doing good.

WOW!!!!
Thats great news

Does anyone know anything about the projected 36 hole disc golf center that is proposed for Austin? I have heard talk of it on the radio and read it on ABC's website today. It supposedly has an $880,000 budget and is part of this crazy stimulus package..

EZ... :D

I bet its a mega park they are puTTin in south off 183 between MLK and 290
PuTT up a link to the ABC

I'll bet the money has already been cut from the bill & that it's a pipe dream.

I bet we'll be playing them sooner than you know it

if they are good enough, wouldn't that about fill out the courses needed to have a Worlds here? :D

Any of you guys heard anything of a course at Stoney Creek Park off of Harris Ridge Blvd?

http://northtownmud.org/docs/stoney_creek_park_ext.pdf

Is this course already in or just proposed?

just proposed

Drove by and the park is under construction!

hey larry
take a look at page A12 in todays american statesman. (editorals) whats that in there for?

That is a city mega park around Loyola (969 and 290). They wanted submissions for shovel ready projects for the stimulus pkg. When people looked through money going to Austin, the park was mentioned and some $ for disc golf course. Shovel ready refers to starting construction this year as opposed to most of the "non-stimulus" construction spending which won't even start for years. I don't believe this project will create many jobs at all since the city will use primarily city employees. If they do bid something out it will be to an existing company and they'll hire a couple of minimum wage workers for a year then they are gone when the project is over.

what i meant was the way they made disc golfers sound like low lifes

I thought we were! :D I thought you were just wondering why it mentioned disc golf.

that is a hell of a walk to get to the back 9

Off topic, but this is the place for everything else - Danniel Temple is a dumb arse. Seriously! & Lastcash isn't much better. How do you agree that it's stupid to run a mini in the same town on the same day, but OK to run tournaments in the same place on the same days. What a dork. Sorry, now I feel better & I didn't have to bring his thread up to the front page.

since we're complaining, is it just me or is the message board/site in general super slow. I dont think It's my comp since none of the other sites I go to seem to be that way. It reminds me of back inthe day when I had webtv.

I have the same problem! Must be the board!

they are pulling in ads, requiring hitting ad servers every time u hit a page. nice, huh?

Just a heads up to any of you that have written checks to the club for Bag Tags or PDGA renewal - they're going into the bank today.

I have raffle prizes from the Ice Bowl for Blake, JD, & Chris Ware. I'll be at golf when I can get there - please get them when you have a chance. They're t shirts.

who else besides Ware2 and myself are playing Am World Doubles (weekend of 3/14)? We plan on getting there early afternoon that Friday and camping.

I'll be staffing :) (check your score cards) :confused:, but oddly enough - I can't play am doubles :D:o.

That's because you are a PRO......had the balls to move up! :D Unlike some others! :eek: :eek: :eek:

I think what Larry was trying to say is some others just wait for there balls to get old enough to move up :o:eek:

No I think he was trying to say you need to FINALLY win one (or 3 :p) fools . :)

Hey RR people :)

I was just in the austin area this weekend and played Wilco (after it was re-opened at noon) and really enjoyed it! When is the next tournament scheduled for Wilco? I need an excuse to make the drive...

1st sunday of every month we hold our monthly mini there as for a tournament for men not sure, I know TWC will be using that course in April. if you liked wilco you would love Manor. heard form several dallas area guys that manor is by far the hardest course in the STATE :D

We have a mini there the 1st Sunday of each month - April 5th will be next - 9:30 tee. Next "tournament" will be the Double R Bag Tag Challenge on May 2nd - tags are $30 & that is your entry to the tournament. about 15-20 tags left. Then either Flying Solo or Outlaws - dates & schedules TBD.

we can't make TWC this year because we're getting married on the 18th :Dbut I'm sure we'll be there next year. We also can't make May 2nd, but maybe April 5 will work. Outlaws or Flying Solo? I hope we can make one of those. If you guys ever need help with a big tournament we'd love to come help out. If you have them covered, we'd love to come play :)

congrats on getting married. FSO will most likely be May 30 but will probably be in TEMPLE..

Good luck goes out to all the Double R members playing in Victoria as well as at the memorial. play smart and have a safe trip to and from the events.


ROUND ROCK

Anyone else having trouble getting into the PDGA Tour site?

who else besides Ware2 and myself are playing Am World Doubles (weekend of 3/14)? We plan on getting there early afternoon that Friday and camping.



Blake/Blair....Ware2 and I have decided that since our player's meeting is at 11am Saturday, we're not gonna camp there Friday...just gonna drive in Sat morning. Well, the weather is another reason too. :D

Doubt we'll be camping Sat evening either, still contemplating that. We could still take food/grill to use after the Sat rounds so we can all hang for a while, even if we don't camp..... if you want to chat about that, give me a call 512.296.5277.

Congrats guys that played..

Good times at AM Doubles this year and great weather Sunday afternoon - We would have loved to made 3-4 more putts and we would have had the 3rd spot secured but that's disc golf :-)

I'm trying to find an easy way to get from the Austin airport to downtown without a car to possibly play a course. I've found information about a bus to downtown. Wasn't sure which course would be easiest to get to from there.
Thanks, Patti
