Please include Shirt size for Prereg. so we can have PP ready on Friday.

hey buddy

updated registration list?

Are collared shirts mandatory this year? :D

Well then, I'm going to need one! :)

No, but a shirt would be nice Hippie

Come on now, give me some credit, I wear camo's all the time. :D

Skin tone isn't camo.

I updated registration. 12 Paid, 6 more pending. Thats almost half the collared shirts. Get your registration in soon.

TDan

When is the latest I can get my registration in? :confused:

Word I was just about to send my check when I noticed sept 2nd is the ASU-NCSU football game in Raleigh. I've got to figure out what I am doing before i send the $$$

Jack, you need a collared shirt, and fix your priorties. Get registered so I can shake your hand on the fine job you did at worlds, as well as all the NC players. I mean really, even MTL was in the A group for a while, and what about Chris, and Mike, and Walter wow

Jack,

Sign the heck up and get your collared shirt and cash while you can! You're representing the Mountains now! Stand up for what you believe in!

HIckory's only 1 hour from Boone, and the Hickrawdads like Boonies! :)

The Classic is a great tournament, and Glenn C. Hilton Park is a great place to play! The local's do a great job! Everything's just GREAT there! GREAT!!! :)

SIGN UP FOR THE CLASSIC NOW! :) :)

I should be signing up some today or tomorrow

I hope Jack isn't playn AM.

Schweb- Have you played there b4?

I hope Jack isn't playn AM.


Nah im playing AM2
Really i am convinced i shouldn't miss this one even to see a rare matchup. Sending the check tomorrow!

Maybe it won't be a local BAGGER who wins like the last umpteen times

I'll be coming up. Shotgun a guest bedroom at your house! TNT-Hickville

and don't get me started on our AM Masters with the Doc going for his Third Title and Danster his second. So I'm calling all AM Master baggers to sign up. Or is it Freddy's year after his modifications to the course to suit his game. To be continued....

Schweb- Have you played there b4?

Nope this will be first TTime there.

hopefully i'll get my money out in a day or two

Hey Thumber, it'll be good to see you. You have had plenty of rest lately lol. Was wishing you could have played worlds, that would have made our NC contingent even stronger.

See ya soon

Wish I could have been there to Rock, I think it would have been very interesting.

Oh yea!!!

Am Players Pack is looken stellar agian with Innova and Powersdiscs onboard. May also have secret Weapon for opponent in PP. Having a sit and watch people workday on this Saturday if anyone wants to observe.

will there be massive money added again?

the pro payout last year was amazing.

Tryn but may not be that deep. AMs are lookn sweet though

Deep refers to the amount of players paid, which by PDGA rule should be 40 - 50%.

I was just refering to the money added.

Either way I'll be there.

Will there be someone at OHO I can give my check too to save a stamp?

[QUOTE]

WOW
I meant deep in your pocket when you leave with fat cash

and my other question?

Maybe, but the club will start a fundraiser for your 39 cents.

just a convience thing for both ya'll and me.

Hey Dan, did you get my entry fee and my form? Just making sure, better safe than sorry they say. :D

Little big Dan is out of town until further notice or I remember when he's returning but I would go with until further notice. But I do know that there will be at least three people WORKING on the course THIS SAT and one might be me.

Are we just playing one course at the HC or more? Never been so just wondering.

same course but I believe it longs on Sat then 9 or 10 baskets get moved to the short on Sun
Don't know if 18 A Shortest one will be played due to sleeve issues but will still have the better 2 anyway

Anybody heard from Wilson? Is he playing this year?

Is he bringing the mouth spray?

Watch it, Boonie Todd is also a dirty hippie. But I don't think there will be a Linker sighting but how about a PP

Bad sense of humor BS. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

But your wife's Hot

Thanks for the compliment! :D I wish I could say the same about your mom. :eek: :D :p

That has to be BP acting up. :confused: Your probably just mad because you can't leave the house. :eek: :D

that's f@#$kin funny :D:D:D:p :D

PP is coming. I'm just figuring out how to screw you out of a few bucks since MTL already claimed the stamp technique! Shotgun a guest room at BS's crib. ;)

BP's mother is not hot anymore, but I did hear that she saves a lot of money under the mattress. Might actually be worth the punishment! :o

It's all good for ratings! :D

its gonna be like hitchcock in hicktown

the berd is comin, man

Yeah and so is........THE BEAST!!!!!!
BANG! BANG! ;) :D

Bapster, I'm back. Came through Augusta to quinch my thirsty discs in Lake Olmstead.

Registration list updated. Only about a dozen collar shirts left unclaimed.

Beast, you are in!

Sweet!!! Thanks Dan! :D

Nice, Did ya see Gary C. tryn to bag one from our Locals. May not be a 5 repeat for the locals. Hope the tree on 16 is finally down all the way. How's that Ear DUMBO. PP your reservation must have been lost. But a complimentary sofa is available which is better than your hard $^#^@ floor.

Or mat in computer room. Where has the DARKNESS been?

Yo, I'm in on this Hickraw thing. Just got to get the OK from Dan. :D
Mark down another rep. from the High Country/Highlands...I'm on the western side of the mtn. :cool:
Where are all the Yadkinites? :confused: This is your cross-town rival...you gotta out bag them!

Will the real Bapster please stand up so we can pelt him with rotten <font color="red"> tomatoes</font>? /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif ;)

Ah well, BP, you knew he was a scoff-law when you took him to raise. And JL, you know every good country boy in the state will be on the dove field for opening day that Saturday. :)

Thems good eatn

the real bapster has not been online for 2 weeks, had pre-wedding party in MI. wedding 9/15 in vegas. will be in hickory tourney weekend, my moms not hot, but my littlle bro will hook you guys up. not bs

dan r signs up?
bs cards fri?
not bs

Mayb at Rasta's house

Dan,

Can you give a breakdown of what is included in the AM's players packs? ;)

I have heard at least one player from K-port will make the treck over.

For the first 30 something AMS get
Collared Polo Shirt with Hickory Logo (High Performance) plus a STAR Disc

Others get .
Uncollared High Performance
Star Disc with hickory leaf stamp

If you want the collared shirt I'd contact Dan asap

Chief, you are in and your shirt will be collared.

Down to under ten of the unclaimed collar shirts, and going fast.

IMPORTANT CHANGE TO SCHEDULE

Random douibles will start at 5:00 PM Friday, 9/1/06, not 6:00 PM. It is just getting too dark, too quickly.

The player's meeting is at 9:30 and the tee time is at 10:00 on the first day right? You can't see the tee time and/or the players meeting time on the flyer for some reason.

Nice to see atleast one person from Asheville knows how to Prereg. Nice Job Ruten Tuten. He may become my first pick to upset a Local Master Bagger.
If you want some Practice we have dubs Sunday at 2
and our last Weds dub next week at 5:30
Rasta Mon and Real BS won the free enter already though from weds points

who will be at OHO that I can give my check too

you could probably give the check to anyone there but the odds if it getting to Hickraw are slim. The fundraiser is up to 26 cents so we are still 13 short sorry.

no locals on oho list, check page 1 of this post for adress contact or send check to dan
not bs

BAPSTER PLEASE READ OTHER 80 POSTS BEFORE REPLYING. MTL IS TOO CHEAP TO BUY A STAMP

Very nice players package!!!! :)

At least I know I'll come home with something. :D

I was just talking with Ross ta mon, and he said those collared shirts retail for $50!!!!!!! :eek:

And, you get a Star disc with the Hickory stamp on it! :eek:

That's a deal of a players package. :)

Wow!!! That is awesome!!! :DOh, just wanted to ask again, is the player's meeting at 9:30 and the first round at 10:00 because the flyer still won't show the time of either so wanted to make sure. :p

http://www.unctv.org/ncweekend/

In case you misssed it, the Disc Golf segment on NC Weekend is now available at the above link. You must select last weeks program to veiw the clip. It is located in the upper left hand corner of the page. It is the first segment of the show so you don't have to search through it. Enjoy! ;)

Saw it the other night while randomly flipping through the channels. Course seemed different then when I played the first PDGA tournament there several years back. Nice piece though

Beast,

You are correct. Player Meeting 9:30 AM, tee off at 10 AM.

Okay cool. :DJust wanted to be sure because I did not want to be wrong about that!!!

Just got 10 CFR Star Sharks with Hickory Leaf Stamp. $15. Let me know if you want me to hold one for you. Thanks for the delivery, Paul B.

And thanks to the other Paul B (Bright) for cleaning off the tee pads.

The pads look nice, we were wondering who took care of them.
Going to pick Shirts up Thurs. Need $$$$$$$$$$$ or check Dan.

Im in, it's on now

bring it you big thumber throwing mullet

Is there camping nearby? If so, how far from the course(s)?

Hey, The Beast is telling both of you guys to bring it on!!! :D

Hey Bradley.................not coming..................need to recover from Marshall St.................................was that a narc behind you?????????????

BOOOOOOOOO.
Cam
Don't know of any camping in the area. Have asked around and no one seems to know. Maybe on hole 7 by the creek if you're quiet

was that a narc behind you?????????????


all round

BOOOOOOOOO.

Thanks. Might work for me, but I think the wife and kids would object. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Stop Bapster, what's that sound................. :D
I heard you hurt yourself?

Think it's from typing too many Treatment plans at work. Have random numbness in left arm and hand plus back issues but will try to play through it or righty off the tee. Darkness is alive per Ant but FIRED.
Cam, If you find a campground let me know because others maybe looking. What was you're name agian? (LOUDER PLEASE)

Hey Guy's, can any of the locals inform us travelers if Hickory's course is cart friendly. It would be good to know. If not then how many holes are complicated and can a partner help with a cart on those few?

See all of you soon, as soon as I recover from Oak Hollow. Super Dave ran a great tournament

Rocky mini thumber

Pretty sure it is cart friendly but locals may not be if u use one. I believe Ryan Pickdaddy Pickens used one last year. There is some terrain out there but shouldn't be a problem.

I did a web search. Here are the three closest listings. First two are 20 minutes to the course, Taylorsville around 35 minutes. I have never been to them, so you should call them for details.

1. Indian Springs Campground, 4361 Whitener Dr Hickory NC (828) 397-5700
2. Lake Hickory Rv Resort, 6641 Monford Dr Conover NC (828) 256-4303
3. Hidden Valley Campground, 2550 Hidden Valley Rd Taylorsville NC (828) 632-8111

For maps, search Yahoo for "campgrounds Hickory NC"

Please supply feedback so we can pass the word along to future campers.

Dan

Thanks, I'll check into these later.

Unfortunately Grill Master P, aka. Mr. Powell won't be able to cook lunch for us all this year. I believe it was a unanimous decision by the Club to save time, money, and energy and X providing food basically because of the hassle (and grade d beef isn't all that good for you). :D

So, it looks as though the alternative is up to you. From what I've heard, there will be maps provided of area resturants if you don't come prepared. Isn't that right, Dan the man?

Will breakfast be available?

It will at mi casa without the dirty bird

Yes, BT, you are on your own for lunch. Maps for close to course quick food joints will be available. On Sunday, the aforementioned Mr. Powell is bringing yummy breakfast baked goods from Rise and Shine Bakery in Boomer, NC.

The Powell family is great! Always willing to contribute in some way to make the disc golf world a better place. This family really does deserve some recogition for giving so much to help support the sport. Even if they didn't do anything, their positive spirit just being there is enough! :)

Cheers to the Powell family! :)

despite everything I could do, I gave in and purchased a stamp yesterday.

NO WAY! The horror of supportin the USPS :eek: I wish there was something we could do to speed those folks up....OH yeah the green one works well. GO Mailmen!

looks like you might be able to sail home after this. I hope everyone has a good time and stays dry. I hope to make it there one day.

One day? :confused: Surely you're not playing jrs. :D

Good Job. We raised 35 for ya which you can get on arrival. Hippie when are you comin in?

Not sure yet. I have a peace rally to go to first. ;)

Nate Dogg going to be in town? I need to know whether or not to bring my ear plugs. :D

Yes and we're putting him in your group Enjoy

I'm cool with that. :cool: If I'm having fun, then I'll probably play better! Or, at least I had some fun! :)

One day? :confused: Surely you're not playing jrs. :D



Funny I wish I could cause i might have a chance at top ten,


I will however be playing "smile and grin" at a family wedding, while the whole time wishing i was in Hickory.

Yes and we're putting him in your group Enjoy

If at all possible, Please put me with people that I have probably never played with b4 , during the first round.
Thanks in advance.

man people will do anything these days to not to have to play with me.....:D

Put me in King MulleTT's group. :D

yea, put the MTL, Beast, Mullet, and mini thumber together. Now that would be a zoo!. I could pick on the Mullet, pull MTL's hair, and depantyhose the Beast

wow, I just shot a birdie.

Bigg'n, that would be awesome! If I am in that group I have to be representin'. I would also have to Capitalize the "A" in my game. You can't depantyhose me though, they're on pretty tight. :D

yea, put the MTL, Beast, Mullet, and mini thumber together. Now that would be a zoo!. I could pick on the Mullet, pull MTL's hair, and depantyhose the Beast

while that would be a fun group, it could never happen in PDGA play unless the field was full.

PDGA rule requires that divisions stay together unless there is no other to do it.

maybe chad could play on that card??

Thanks Buddy

Don't worry about who you guys are playing with. :cool: Just worry about the bees! Speaking of, are there any of them out there this year on the course? Or has Freddie already nuked them? :D I don't want my Classic appearance to BEE a disappointment! :D I'm allergic, and have a very high deductable. :D

What about those hurricane's? /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

BooneTodd,

Regarding yellow jackets and other ground bees:

We have nuked the ones we have seen, but they are industrious creatures and unfortunately they are not rare. You could play in full bee-keeper garb, but otherwise, group caution is required.

Please tell the TD if you find any animal hazards, like Freddy's tree climbing snake (not poisonous). :eek:

Hippie Boy stop with the %^%^%$# n faces
Saw no BEEE yesterday

Buzz off Bradley! :D:) :cool::p ;) :D:) :cool:/msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :D

Just picked up the Shirts from Powersdisc.com (plug) and they look awesome especially the long sleeve high preformance. Makes me want to play AM with the Star disc also. If you're an AM in the area and not planning on coming you are missing a pp valued at over $65. Yes the noncollared shirts are long sleeve but if anyone has a problem I'm sure some Pros would like to take it off your hands.

Yes, we are filling up. Over sixty already.

Make sure to check out our CFR Star Sharks with custom Hickory stamp. Only eight left.

And I am now taking bids on the rarest of rare collectables: A cancelled, USPS, First Class postage stamp purchased (one assumes) and used ( DNA test results pending) by MTL. Bidding starts at $1.95.

Is the limit 72 or 90?

We'll do ninety, but to avoid the $5 late fee and Saturday crunch, pre-registration is hightly recommended. Pre-reg ends tonight at 8 PM. I'll be at the course during doubles taking registrations. Doubles start at 5 PM. It will be cloudy, but we seem to be past the heavy rain.

Have a big weekend Hickory Classicans!!! Shoot 'em up!!! :cool:

scores are up - thanks Dan!

Thanks everyone for a great tournament. Congrats to Jerry, Henry, Freddy, Andy, and Dawn. Look for pictures at the UFO website later Monday.
www.geocities.com/hickorydiscgolf (http://www.geocities.com/hickorydiscgolf)

Welcome to the pro ranks Yandella!!!!!!! That stinks that your nickname of "lifer" doesn't apply anymore. :D

So, did Jerry Harmon win?

Oh yeah, he won with back to back 45's on da shorts.

Thanks to Dan and everyone in Hickory for another awesome Hickory classic!

Pics are up at the UFO site. If you have other pics I can post please email them to me at hickorydiscgolf@yahoo.com

I really need a shot of the UFO in the grass on #1. Another Freddy original. And great work on the tee signs, Ross. I know you and Clint put in overtime to get them up.

Thanks again to all who helped out. There was always someone ready to pitch in when needed.

What happened to Cracken?

missed first 3 holes

What????? Cracken Late....No Way, Never happen. Too bad, would have liked to seen him win another.

what happened to ju?

To Dan, Ross, Richard, Freddy, et al. - Thanks for hosting a great tournament! I had a blast and will tell everyone who didn't come this year they missed out on the best players packs available. Hope we can fill it up next year.

Jerry might have forgotten his shirt but he brought his golfin shoes...not many people could have beaten him on Sunday.

See you next year @ Hickory! :cool:

It was another FUN and very memorable Hickory Classic to say the least, but I never can!

I think there were 6 ACES thrown on Sunday, and none on Sat.

From my perspective, all went well.

I agree, the player's package was one of the nicest I've ever received! CTP prizes galore too! Wow!

Congratulations to Jerry Harmon, Freddie Bowman, and Henry Childres, all with big WINS!

Thanks to all the locals who made it possible, Freddie, Ross, Brad, Clint, Richard, Nate L., Ron, BP, Gary and the P & R staff, the Powell's, Paul B and Innova, etc., ESPECIALLY DAN! Thanks DAN for stepping up and being the MAN this year! Great job!

I'd also like to thank all the people who I meet and threw with this weekend. It was a pleasure. And, Ross ta Mon for opening up and sharing his family's happy abode and offering quality 4 star like services throughout the weekend. Very kind! Also, Slim and Kelly for helping out with dinner both nights.

Good food, good folks, good golf, good times! That's what the Hickory Classic is all about!

I'm looking forward to winning this thing someday, maybe next year?

Peace

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUddY. Have tasgal....
