Howdy all,

EIEIO 2k6 is about 15% full with 6 and a half weeks to go. Please get those entries in ASAP if you know you want to play this thing. I'm certain it will sell out, and the sooner it does the easier it is for me to order trophies. :)

I have tee-signs and InnColors for sale. (Pre-order the InnColors, they aren't made yet.) I am getting Star Sidewinders, Star Starfire-Ls, and Star Wraiths.

Tee-signs are $30, InnColors are $25, and I am once again offering The Amazing Combo Deal of both for a mere $50.

Check out the artwork and get your entry form at the tourney website:

http://www.eieio.rhett.net/

This will be a PDGA C-tier and a SoCal Series event. It's a one-day tourney on an executive par-56 ball golf course that will be closed to the public, with beer available before and after rounds, carts available, and beautiful setting that you won't soon forget. The players pack will be top-notch, and I always try to find something extra to do because I like that kind of stuff.

If you haven't played Emerlad Isle, you are missing out on a great experience.

Once again breakfast will be available for sale before the tourney, lunch will be provided, and you will get your fill of fun and OB strokes. :eek: :D

I might be buying a tee sign when I see you on the 18th. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Now at 27% full.

Mail those entries so you don't get left out.

7 tee-signs left, so send a message if you want one.

Did you get my check yet?........The course will play a lot different this year too...I shot a -10 today with 4, 8, 11, and 15 long. A -11 if you count 4 as a 4 when its long.

Did you get my check yet?........The course will play a lot different this year too...I shot a 46 today with 4, 8, 11, and 15 long. A 45 if you count 4 as a 4 when its long.



How does 4 being a par 4 change your stroke total? Maybe -9 instead of -8, but the total should be the same.

What's up killa...8's and 9's are for babies, or the back 9...Here's what I meant to say--"The course will play a lot different this year too...I shot a <font color="red"> -10 </font> today with 4, 8, 11, and 15 long. A <font color="red">-11 </font> if you count 4 as a 4 when its long" Officially its a par 56 course, but there are a few holes that might add a stroke or two.

How many times do I have to tell you this...Emerald Isle is the only place I play, I don't play at Morley...I use Morley as a convenient place to beat opponents from NorCal, Oregon, or whatever you claim now...

Why is T.Pozzy the moderator for this thread??? SUP w/that? :confused: :confused: :confused:

We're up to 35. Max players is going to be about 85. That puts us at about 41% full. I'd love to have this thing sell-out early so that I can have an easier time ordering trophies.

I'll be at the Wintertime Open this weekend with entry forms. Bring your checkbook and sign up right there on the spot. :)

Got your entry Donny. Thanks for supporting the tourney with a tee-sign/InnColor deal. :)

michelle playing in a rhett stroh event.......

why oh why don't i still live out west so i could see this? :eek:


:D:D

That's funny.... all bark and no bite... :D
It's all good!
I'll go anywhere they provide us golf carts! That course rocks!! :D;) :) :cool:

just keep an eye on rhett to make sure the steering wheel isn't stuck turning left(towards the lakes) and the gas pedal isn't glued to the floorboard :eek: :eek:
:D

Registration is now at 62, or 73% full.

That was pretty funny, Keith :D:D

BEER available before and after, and if I am not mistaken it is good beer, Karl Strauss. Hopefully a decent size corporation that will like the event and sponsor more events and perhaps SoCal Disc Golf in General. If you are not playing in this but in the area please stop by that day so Karl Strauss gets a warm fuzzy.

i have my occasional flashes of brilliance! :D

Ok I bought one with that and a little something extra on it for you Socal guys. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Yowza! 20+ entries stacked up after being in Texas for 5 days!

I'm am certain we will be full after today's mail. Updated reg on the website.

i was gonna say happy birthday, but then i saw you banned seewhere. come on dude, get a sense of humor.

after all, your event is encouraging drinking and driving for pete's sake!

Rhett we have the same birthday!

yo rhett the admin, you MUST ban steve_parker, who posted the following on another thread:

"------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adv? or Pro? ( being unsactioned I figure Pro might be a good time to test out some golfing and see where are games stand..6 holes against some good Pro TX golfers could be great)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------



PRO ! I am still getting my #$*&$! kicked by various adv masters.... I know the state of my game.... it is NOT ready for a pro pounding..... "

there is no difference between what seewhere and steve posted. they both used funny characters to barely disguise a bad word. :mad::confused: :(

I'm thinking that the spray of special characters is the new replacement for "I'm a potty mouth".

well it sure is a silly spray, since it so closely looks like the word steve was using! i guess i could come up with lots of sprays that look suspiciously like lots of bad words. i'd try, but then rhett_the_admin would prolly ban me.

UNBAN SEEWHERE!

Yowza! 20+ entries stacked up after being in Texas for 5 days!

" Happy Birthday" !!!!! :D

Hey Sandalman,

I would appreciate it if you kept comments for Rhett the admin in private messages and not on a thread about an event Rhett the player is involved with. Or perhaps start your own thread to get public support to re-instate the poster.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Registration is at 87 and we are now officially full.

Tomorrow's mail will start the waitlist.

Mail in an entry form without any payment to get on the waitlist. I will finalize the field at 6:00 PM on Friday the 17th. No one will be added on Saturday.

Thanks to everybody that pre-registered. I will be ordering trophies tomorrow. Your early diligence will help this event run smoothly. :)

What about my disc :p

What about it? Aren't you listed on the website under the picture?

Did you receive my check?

What about my disc :p



Rhett should mail it to you. I have not seen the actual disc yet , so I don't even know what mold or type of disc it is.

I think he said starfire or something. Rhett if it is more than 1 mold let me know.

It's more than one mold.

Can we pick? :D

Sure. But I'm old and I don't remember what molds or weights I ordered. I'll get you a heavy something when they come in.

I won't be throwing it so weight doesn't really matter. :D

Speaking of full.......I think it rained hard enough all night long for the lakes at Emerald to fill up. :)

Is there a pre-reg list somewhere?

What's the word Rhett?

Any word...I just know how awesome this tourney is going to be, so I was trying to get our tourney bumped in the queue.

I know I have a package I need to mail today.

Yikes! Will it get here in time???


The trophies are here.

The player pack discs are here: DX Rocs and DX Wraiths.

The player pack towels should be here today.

Some extra special CTP prizes are here, and they are dang sweet.

Payout should be around 115% for all divisions as calculated for pros. Ams "event value" calc should be well over 200%.

Done!!!! you should have it Wed/Thursday for sure.

(dang it, I almost forgot to mail it again)

The player pack discs are here: DX Rocs and DX Wraiths.



Are they all heavy? I'd like a 150 Wraith if possible.


:D:D:D :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D :D:D:D:D:D

HEY EVERYONE IN ATTENDANCE, PLEASE BRING ME YOUR OLD BLANKETS AND TOWELS AND ANY PLASTIC GROCERY STORE BAGS THAT YOU HAVE LYING AROUND. THEY'LL GO TO GOOD USE, I PROMISE!

:D:D:D :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D :D:D:D:D:D

The player pack discs are here: DX Rocs and DX Wraiths.

I ordered some 150s and some low-160s, and the women and one junior will get first shot at those.

Skip also got in a big order of new plastic for am payout and has separated the lighter stuff out, and we'll be giving the am women first shot at that stuff, too.

I hear Jeanne got in; if she feels up to travelling that day I'm going to catch a ride and be a Caddy. :cool:Too long since I did that, so I hope she's up to it - that course is a beaut, and I might even find some time to drive....the cart.

Jeanne has some health issues which take priority, but it'd be keen to meet Pizza, and Scoot_er, after all this time reading their words.........hope it's a go.

Steve, you have a PM.

Thanks to Pizza God (aka Bryan James) from Texas for donating a box o' discs for CTP prizes.

Next year expect a Box of Gateway stuff from Tx as well. BTW where's my disc? :D

What did you want? SL max weight?

Sure

Rhett, give the Jr. the small T-shirt for a CTP :D

Next time I need to mail that sooner, it would have cost a little less than $10 I am sure :o

I'll be bringing my digital but won't carry it in my bag if it's raining. If it's not raining, I'll shoot some coverage but obviously not the entire event. If I get anything cool (like, HEY we made it over the water!), I'll send it to Timmy. :D:D

What's the word Rhett?



Scores??

What up Dave...Did you take down Micah on your HOME course :o

That would be great...he only out rates you by 50+ /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
:D

The kid from LaMa takes them all down. Richard Thompson even survives the pressure of a final-7 ace from Micah on hole #3 and holds on to win!

TD error? I didn't even think of it.

If this is in fact allowed again and not just an oversight, I will try to make it right for Richard.
