The 2nd annual “2006 Tupelo Bay Open” presented by DISConcepts LLC is now scheduled for December 9th and 10th. The official flyer will be posted at www.disconcepts.com (http://www.disconcepts.com) within the next few days but here are some of the details.
This will be a PDGA “B” tier event. The tournament will be played on both the permanent 9-hole “Par 3” ball golf / disc golf course as well as the temporary 18 hole “Executive” ball golf course. The temporary course will be unbelievable and will feature water on 14 of the 18 holes (close to the same layout as last year). Come see why some of the biggest names in the sport of disc golf made their way to the Myrtle Beach area last December for the Tupelo Bay Open (Schultz, Feldberg, Schweberger, McCree, Yoo, Crump, Frizzaks, Beaver... Multiple pictures used in the 2006 Innova catalogs and disc golf course design and construction brochures were shot at the 2005 Tupelo Bay Open (see that picture of a large group of festive people towards the back of the catalog?) That’s the Tupelo Bay Open! I’m the guy smiling in the middle! Get on it and sign up before it’s full again! What better way to celebrate the end of the season by treating yourself to a week of disc golf / golf / kiteboarding???, eating and drinking at the beach???
DISConcepts will help you with ALL of your transportation, lodging, food and golfing details (ball or disc). It is very important to US that when you are here, you area enjoying the surroundings and getting the most out of your tournament experience. We are planning special demos and instructional classes throughout the week before the TBO and look to get some of the competitors involved with teaching disc golf fundamental skills to kids in the Horry County area. I’m looking into the possibility of hosting a Pro / Am / Celebrity doubles on Friday night under the lights as well. Stay tuned!

This will NOT be a wide-open crush, crush, putt disc golf course but instead will present players with an exceptional risk and reward challenges. The layout which will be playing as a par 65, and measuring in at 9555’, has been tamed by both Barry Schultz and Brian Schweberger who last year shot rounds of 53 on the executive course. The rest of the field of 35 pro’s averaged 66.3 strokes for the week.

The golf complex features electric carts, clubhouse, new bar “The Sandtrap”, night lights, driving range, tree-lined fairways, slight elevation changes, water, and wildlife. 10 of the holes will be playing 250ft to 400ft, 5 of the holes playing 401 to 600, and 3 holes playing 601+. Check out www.tupelobay.com (http://www.tupelobay.com) for more about the golf complex. The 9-hole course is lighted until 10:00pm and the back 9 on the Executive course will lighted until 10:00pm as well each night.
The temporary course will be setup up no later than Friday morning December 8th and will be available for play Friday until 10:00pm. Only the back 9 will be lit after dark.
Email registration is BEST if possible. Please send me a message with your name, division, PDGA #, and contact information, followed as soon as possible by your reservation check. I only have room for the 1st ~100 registrants and would recommend contacting me a soon to reserve a spot. Entries will be confirmed when your registration check is received. Please do not send checks after December 3rd! Call for arrangements if you will not hit that deadline.
Feel free to post questions here, send me an email disconcepts@charter.net , or call 864-270-3723.
I am finalizing details for discounted hotels and condo’s close to the course. I will post information within a few days. Camping is also available at Myrtle Beach State Park, which is about 4 miles away from the course.

YES!

I am putting it on my schedule. The Executive course is one of the best courses I have ever played on. If you are within 300 miles, you'll kick yourself for missing this one.

glad to see this one coming back for another year. Last year was awesome can't wait for this year

I just want to be upfront about the raise in entry fees for this year. Last year’s entry for Open at $60 and Am’s at $40 did not include an electric cart, which was an additional $20 for the weekend. I wanted to give people the option to pay less and just walk. However keeping track of the carts was not much fun. So this year the carts will be included for tournament rounds on the Executive course and EVERYONE will RIDE
(which =’s cost bump). I know how much is sucks to leisurely ride around in the plush carts, but you are going to have to deal with it. When you play the Par 3 course you will walk. Carts and greens fees for practice days leading up to the event will cost extra. I am negotiating a 48 hr – 72 hr unlimited use of all facilities (ball golf, disc golf, driving range) for 1 price but don’t have the # yet. I have been cleared to have full use of the “sandtrap” bar, the new patio, and also the driving range. So look for a possible distance competition at night under the lights!

I will B there in full MulleTT Force, and you can take that to the Bank

mmm a little TT a Little FFF sounds like fun.

Wish the VAN could show.

^^ agrees with half of that.

^^ Knows he wants to play the Tupelo Bay Open.
<< Knows he IS going to play the Tupelo Bay Open.
VV Doesn't know just how awesome the Tupelo Bay course really is.

^^ better stay away from the dogs before this one. :D

protect those digits.

Pat, so stoked you are doing this one again. this was my first top 5 finish as an advanced golfer can't wait! do you think this year all the divisions will be able to play the pitch and putt during the day time? night golf was a bit tuff even under the lights.

I'm kicking butt since the dog bite. Best thing for my game.

Making my winter Snow-Bat trip to Austin via,...

TUPELO BAY!!! :D

Can't wait!!

now that is a trip.

Any top players planning on attending this year?

Do I count?

Haha, I'm coming with JJ this year and I heard that Barry was gonna do the Chareston Myrtle Beach trip again this year.

after that thread, no, you don't count.

There will be a TTrim sighTTing

good. I will work on my place to stay from last year.

My VW van at the state park is my headquarters!

Mobile apt. on wheels!! :Dhttp://i5.ebayimg.com/05/i/08/86/74/a1_1.JPG

good. I will work on my place to stay from last year.



WORK IT OUT..

MTL has been awarded the DISConcepts “Volunteer of the Year” award and will be playing this event free of charge! He received and overwhelming 100% of the votes received. Look for your chance for a free ride to this event in 2007! I have secured the driving range at night under the lights for a distance competition, so if you can launch a disc a long ways you may want to show. Do you have an idea of a great sponsor for the event? Please send me an email or give me a call. See you at the beach!

Is there a flyer yet? i checked the website and didn't see one... thanks

Flyer is now posted at Disconcepts (http://www.disconcepts.com)

Pat, take a look at your site in a browser other than Explorer.

Try Firefox or Opera. It's almost unreadable, and the link to Tupelo doesn't even show up.

Matt

We are looking into airfare right now...this tournament was awesome!!!!1

hey MTL...why only half of that post? you dont want the VAN there?

MTL has been awarded the DISConcepts �Volunteer of the Year� award and will be playing this event free of charge!



wohoo!

He's so busy volunteering that he didn't have time to check this thread.

He's so busy working at the office that he didn't have time to check this thread.



now it looks correct :D

Paypal???

How bout the 12x champ making the trip up? It's not too far, and there's Ball Golf to be had too.

could happen for the Charleston to Tupelo combo, with stick golf during the week in between.

Sorry no paypal! I have had a few people email about bringing their families and requesting information about beach house rentals. Here is a great rental company www.gardencityrealty.com (http://www.gardencityrealty.com) who can help with booking a house. House rentals this time of year are close to 1/3 the price of summertime rentals. For families, high rollers, or high-rolling families a 4+ bedroom beachfront home can be found for $750-$1300 (winter rates) for the week. However MOST rentals in the area book Saturday to Saturday (be sure to ask days offered). All of the houses on this site are about 1 to 2 miles from Tupelo Bay.

Man I can't wait to feel some heat. This cold sux. It was -5 degrees when I got up to go golfing today. With the wind it feels like -25. I can't wait to shed some coats, sweatshirts and Boots to throw a disc while wearing a T-Shirt and my regular shoes.

Is it the 29th yet?! When you are waiting for an airplane to take you somewhere warm, it always seems like it's longer than the flight back to the cold.
I'm rambling now,.... maybe I should just close the blinds and stay warm or head to the airport now and wait there. 4 days in the airport wouldn't be that bad. :D

Myrtle Beach weather forecast for this weekend and next week. Abundant sunshine highs in the upper 60’s! Let’s hope it holds for both the Charleston Classic and the Tupelo Bay Open. Even if adverse weather finds it’s way to the TBO, you should find comfort in packing around your extra gear in a covered golf cart! :D

Yeah Golf CarTTs.

i'll try and keep 'em dry this year

Can you put me in the Advanced Masters Div alongside Gary Carmichael #15877
High Point, NC, USA

http://www.pdga.com/tournament/playerstats.php?PDGANum=15877&year=2006

Thanks!

i'll try and keep 'em dry this year

boooooooo..........that isn't any fun.........you can do much beTTer this year.

Tim,
I have you updated. Have a safe trip and be ready to enjoy “Spring” here in the South!

I will have a printed copy of rules, hole distances, scorecards, and schedule for each player when you check in. Here is a quick overview of the course rules. Some of it may be subject to change at discretion of the TD.

Rules for both courses:
-All PDGA rules will be in effect.
-All lakes on the course are “Out of Bounds”. Water comes into play on 14 holes so “stay dry” or bring extra discs.
-All cart paths on the course are “In bounds”.
-Throwing beyond the cart path (even 3 fairways over) is “In Bounds”
-Discs that come to rest in a tree will be played directly below with NO stroke penalty.
-All “Ball” golf putting greens are “Out of Bounds”. Disc must be completely on the putting surface. An example will be given at the players meeting.
-All sand traps will be “In Bounds” without penalty.

Executive Course “Special rules”

-Hole #1 any disc that crosses into the driving range (line drawn between farthest left trees) Is considered “Out of Bounds” and will require a 1 stroke penalty.
-Hole #4 special “Out of Bounds” Any tee shot coming to rest in the swamp just off the tee with be “Out of Bounds” and will be a 1 stroke penalty. Re-tee from the “Red tees” further up the fairway.
-Any shot that crosses the left side of the cart path (path in bounds, left side out) on Holes #4 and #13 are considered out of bounds and will require a 1 stroke penalty. Play from where the disc went out of bounds.

Par 3 Course “Special Rules”

-Hole #2 Any Disc coming to rest in the Bi-Lo parking lot is “Out of Bounds” Take a 1 stroke penalty and play from where the disc went out of bounds.
-Hole #3 Any disc coming to rest in the road (HWY 17) is “Out of Bounds” Take a 1 stroke penalty and play from where the disc went out of bounds. Hole #3 also has a “mandatory” which requires a shot left of the marked tree. A shot missing the mandatory will require a 1 stroke penalty and a re-tee until each time the “mando” is missed.
-Hole # 9 any disc coming to rest in the entry road is “Out of Bounds” and will require a 1-stroke penalty. Play from where the disc went out.

I will have a complete line of Innova discs for sale for those who misplace shots into the water.

will there be sign ups for tee times or shotgun start or what?

Shotgun start for both days, but cart partners and hole number starts can be requested on Friday or Saturday morning. If you are looking for a possible two-some or four-some I can make it happen for the 1st day, but score will decide groups on day 2.

Awesome Pat, check your PM's.

Also, practice rounds on Friday - have to be paid for or free?

Practice rounds on Friday will cost additional. I will have to check with the course to see what it will cost. Typically this time of year (off-season) the Executive course costs $25 to play “ball” golf with a cart. I know they will be running a deal but not sure yet what that will be.

Thanks FaReall

Cart Partners for the 1st round!?

I guess I'll let Schultz drive my cart! :D

Do ITT !!!!!

If I bring the camera, do I get a stacked card that first round? Got some awesome shots out of this tournament last year.

fine wit me

I’m fine with stacking groups any way you want. Your best bet would be to find me at the course sometime on Friday and request a certain grouping or show up a little earlier on Saturday morning. Later arrivals on Saturday will be grouped randomly. Requesting to play with someone who may not want to play with you is a different deal….. FaReall I like it!

That is one of the things that is happening this weekend. I would much rather play in Myrtle Beach, but a few things have happened in the last few weeks that have made me unable to attend.

Mike informed me about it - I might.

Pat, Heard Inland Greens was getting pulled. We all hope you don't pull them till you have to. See you in a few days.

Pat, Heard Inland Greens was getting pulled.



WHAT????

say it ain;t so. We need a tournament there before it goes.

WOTS
iNLess was SOLD.

Leaving this morning and heading your way,....

Tell the Chamber of Commerce to TURN UP THE HEAT!!

I will be there by Thursday afternoon/evening.

Anyone up for a practice round? :cool:

Got nothing to do with the thread but I feel compelled to tell you that "Fishead" Tim is right up there in the top ten of all time nicknames. Other favorites "Toe" Hearn (because his big toe and the next one were fused), "Blue Tick" Stevenson (a coon hunter), "Pint" Johnson (because he generally had one in his back pocket), "Pooldoo" Tomkins (because that was the sound a stick of pulpwood made when it fell off the truck and hit him in the head), "Lefty" Burke (who had no left arm, OK I made that one up, but he's out there somewhere) :D

IG's owner sold the course and the new owner doesn't want the baskets. I don't know if it's a matter of not wanting baskets or not wanting to pay for them. Maybe the club could do something to get baskets back there...? The new guy takes over early next year.

boooooooooooooooooooooo

At the meeting last night we talked about IG.The way I understood it,and I may be wrong, The new owner doesnt want anything to do with Disc Golf . We also talked about the possibility of buying the baskets, But the bottom line is the club just doesnt have the funds to do so right now. Losing Inland Greens is a travesty.Unfortunately I dont think there is anything anyone can do to stop this from happening.

Please check out New Hanover Disc Golf thread under courses. Thank You.

Leaving on the morroW!!!!!!
Have you seen paris getting out of her car....it looks like a sundried dogs ear...

you mean Brit getting out of Paris' car?

so....whats the deal with the par 3...Does everyone have to play it in the dark? Just to make it fair, i think all divisions should play that course in the same light....nar du finner ut hva som skjer, baere skrive det. Tusen takk.

That means the 1st round is onda friZZies.

I've ate better lookn beef jerky

I'll hide the camera this time.

So if someone's in town and wants to shoot a round, PM me and I'll call you or give you my cell and you can call me.

No sense in wasting this weather on a video game. :D

The ZZ is leaving this afternoon...Yeah baby...farthest traveled award is clearly out of reach, since ALASKA is in the HOUSE!!! Cant wait for the semi-reunion in DA SOUTH!!....So whats the deal? the ZZ is ready to embibe and throw some plastic...OL' BoBBy BiG ArM is ready to battle, but hes a little worried about his discs and water...Skeet...If you dont lose a disc, you are playing well.....Gotta Love TuPelO.....So is the pre-reg list complete and updated...Where is SAB and Tater SAk...they can drive up nd chill with ONE DOME HILL and clean the mustard off the carpets; no black light please. Distance comp. this year? Would be nice...a tourney in the carolinas with only 6 1000 rated players...hmmmmm. Who locked the dogs up? Late night mini-golf battle this year, or just Poke a lot.....WHoooooooooooooTT WhooooooooooTT, Jupelo has arrived.

Here is a quick update for the Tupelo Bay Open. The executive course will be open for play on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday only. $10 walking fee and $20 with a cart. Call the course to get a tee time (1-843-215-7888) if you plan on playing before 2:00pm. After that the course empties out and should be free of most “ball” golfers and you should be able to get right on.

We will be under a frost delay for starting on Saturday (Sunny but cold). Players will not be allowed out on the course Saturday morning until the course superintendent has cleared us. I am expecting a 10:00am start time. Please still be there early if you have not pre-registered. Due to the delayed start we will play 18 holes on the Executive course and 9 holes on the par 3 as one continuous loop. (27 holes straight). With a 10:00am start, expect to play until 2:30 or 3:00 without a break. Feel free to bring your lunch out on the course with you. There is a Bi Lo grocery store next to the course if you need to stock up.

One of the baskets has disappeared (stolen) over the last few months. Matt Peckham will be bringing a portable to replace it, but if someone else could bring another for a practice basket that would be great. Give me a call if you can (864-270-3723). There is still some room for people to play in the event. If you would like to play please call soon! I will be taking registration, late payment, and group sign ups at the course on Friday 2:00-6:00pm I will be updating the registration soon!

will the driving range or something be open for warm up? and now we are just playing one long round a day? Also with regards to the carts do we just p.m. you if we want to set up riding arrangements? thanks for all the info pat just want to get everything straight so i know what to expect.

Laaaaaaater

C Zure

Pat, I have decided not to come. 3 things have come up that are too hard to pass up. Hope everything goes well.
DG, I guess your on your own. Sorry. I think Patt has a Wraith of mine, see if you can bring it back. Thanks

Sun, Wind and the mild temps,.... Kinda reminds me of springtime in Alaska.

Where are are the golfers?

Sweet course,... too bad those guys with the baby seal Clubs keep chasing these little white things. Kinda small for a seal. :confused:

I guess if you wear pants like that it tends to make one's mind go numb. :D

booooo

there's nothing like a warm day at the beach. Too bad this isn't one of them.

if the rounds were separated, only the executive course round would count. Only rounds with at least 11? holes can obtain player ratings, I believe. Since there was no break between rounds, there shouldn't be a breakout anyway. 2 rounds of 27 unique holes.

Still would be nice to know what iTT would have been raTTed

A clever TD might consider combining the two 9-hole scores to make an 18 and do the other 18s separately on the TD report, if that's what I'm hearing?

This only works if the 9 and 18 scores are available separately. If it's a 27-hole round with shotgun groups scattered around the course, it doesn't work unless the TD is really motivated and manually goes in and tallies up the scorecards into the proper 9 and 18 hole groupings.

That was done Chuck....so maybe Pat can do that for us. That would be Awesome. Could possibly be a 1100 rated round. 53 on the same course last year was 1070.

It will be up there for sure Schweb, but I doubt 1100. Last year was much windier than it was this year is what I heard.

However, rating or no rating, congrats on an awesome round.

...or we could just pick the best 18 holes of the 27 and rate those... i shot 12 really good holes in an 18 hole round once years ago, maybe we could count those as a round unto themselves as well.

love ya schweb, but you should have to get your 1100 round the old fashioned way...

I know....... but cant I dream.....it was 2 different courses.

I'm both clever and motivated. I will try to pull it all together.

fix the merce/lugo ratings swap and the ratings may also migrate a bit. click on either player for their stats to see what I mean.

It's extra work for the TDs with 27-hole layouts to break them out into 9 & 18 and sometimes it's way too risky, especially if you're not sure players entered scores starting on the correct hole. But I would prefer to always have 18-hole rounds for ratings since it's the most fair way to compare stats, at least for courses in the same SSA range.

Scores have been updated reflecting 3 - 18 hole rounds. Round 1 Executive, round 2 combined par 3, round 3 executive. If I need to put the info back to the 27-hole layout that’s fine as I have both scoring layouts. Either way nice 1079 round Schweb and course record as well! FA-REAL

Thanks FarReal, I am still very happy wit dat

Nice shooTTin' Thumber boy!

Thanks WaTTs

Peck~

Pics??

not many. not many at all.

I was busy playing well the first round, and busy playing bad the second round. Well, not too bad.

How can you break up 2 completely different rounds, combine holes you played somewhere in the middle of them, and come up w/ 3 sets of ratings. Booooo! Keep it 2 sets of ratings, that's what it was, 2 rounds on 2 different days.

he is right....

If we did ratings the most appropriate way from a math standpoint, no rounds except 18-hole rounds would ever be rated so they are all on the same basis. So, whenever two 27-hole rounds can properly be broken into three 18s, it provides better not worse ratings info for players.

Thank you Chuck, that is what I thought.

So what is the final decision on this? 2 or 3 rated rounds?

preTTy sure iTT was 2 rated rounds.

Yeah, back in december it was 2 at first, then Pat changed it to 3, and now it looks like we are back to 2.

two is jurrific

is this tourney happening this year?

I was told back in August that it wasn't. Which sucks, because the past two Tupelos have been some of my favorite tourneys. Great course, great TDing, great location.

<font color="blue"> Come on INNOVA
Back to Back weekends in SC?</font>

Please bring it back. After the tear in my arm last year during the 1st round I feel I got cheated by not being able to finish the weekend. I want to throw some rollers and speed around in a cart again.

TTeam TTrim,.... Get 'Er Done.

TTupelo was a BlasTT!!!

:D

So whats the deal...What do people have to do to get this going!!!! I will fundraise money for this...ZZ of fortune stamped discs...The Van Disc!?!?! All we need need is a TD and a liason!! Best event of the year...C tier with money..Extra Payout owards the coure owners? Im sure every player will drop 10$ to the course and pay for carts and by lunch at the event...DO IT DO IT!!!

DO IT!!!!

Kirk Yoo called today and asked if I was planning to run the event. My busy schedule will not allow me to commit the time needed to run the Tupelo Bay Open this year. I have put Kirk in touch with the people at Tupelo Bay and he is working on a plan to possibly run the show. I will help out in any way possible and will hopefully get to PLAY in my 1st TBO. All that I ask is that we stick to the course design I did and used for the last 2 years and that if I want to come back next year and TD that I can. Kirk comments? So to answer some of the questions here this could be FA REAL. The Tupelo Bay Open may be coming bacK!

good stuff... thanks!

Kirk... if this happens can we get some Cryztal Buzzz's for this event?!

I am trying to pull this together. However, I am going to need a lot of help from a lot of different sources.

I am waiting for some phone calls to be returned.

I will not change the course. It will be as close to the same as it has been in the past as I can make it.

git er dunn, I will help out however I can

Kirk, what do you need from me?

A million dollars would be a nice start...lol

I am trying to line up 18 baskets right now. As soon as I am sure we can get baskets and plastic I will make the decision.

One of the issues with this event is that the fees that have to be paid to the course are fairly steep. I just want everyone to understand that this isn't like playing a tournament in a public park. Last year half of the Pro entry fee and 2/3 of the Am entry fees had to be paid to the course.

That leaves very little for payout. Unless y'all (this means every player that wants to play in this event) can come up with sponsorship cash from other areas.

If every player were able to track down $50 worth of sponsorship (in addition to their entry fee) that would offset the costs that have to be paid to the course. I would be happy to compile a list of sponsors and advertise for them at this event.

Kirk

We are getting closer.

I am awaiting the final phone call from the course manager. That should come tomorrow. If that phone call is successful this event is a go for launch.

Stay tuned!!!

Kirk

capt beam me out of ct

capt beam me out of ct

get on the Yoo Yoo string trip to the DirTTy souTTh.

crash the night port city and bing bang o the course.

I left CT more than 25 years ago. The main reason I left was because of the weather.

I'm amazed that once you were here you moved back there. As we say in the South "Have you bumped your head?".

Kirk

can't wait for tupelo, hopefully everything will work out. One of the best temp courses ever.

So if things pan out, would Tupelo be in December or Januaryish???

Sounds like a return to Ocean Lakes.......

Bring on the Ping-Pong Monty.......

When I talked to kirk today about helping out he was looking at the 2nd weekend in December. This is the same weekend as last year.

Mike has it right.

If it works out it will be the 2nd weekend in December the same weekend as last year

Sweet.

Well I know of four people that are definitely coming.....

Awesome!!!

Can you get your family, friends or maybe the company you work for to sponsor the event?

Entry level sponsorship is $25. The more we get the more successful this event will be.

Please pass this around. I already have a Raleigh Pro that isn't going to the event that has pledged $25.

What r u you dong for fundraising discs? I know we can sell 50-75 ZZVAn discs at $20-25 a piece.

I already have a Raleigh Pro that isn't going to the event that has pledged $25.



I give you the permission to say it was me. :D

thats what i'm saying... cryztal buzzz fundraisers!!!

you don't want it with me in ping pong.

Sweet Olive in Mt Pleasant, SC will pledge a $25 sponsorship. I also grew up in Myrtle Beach and will try to contact some people at home about donating.

nice

Once we get the final approval I will have Mike set up PayPal for entry, sponsorship and fund raiser discs.

I'll be WE you can be DO THIS and we can do this

WE too can help DO THIS with you too!

WiiCAHduNIS?

Houston, we are go for launch....I repeat we are go for launch.

We will have PayPal links up tonight.

way to go Captain!!! i will see about the NHDGC helping out with a little sponsorship drive!!

Kudos to Kirk for keeping this tournament going!! In my opinion this is the best temp course out there. Kirk, I'm down for a $25 donation as well as any help you may need to make this easier on you. Let me know what you need and I'm there. Thanks again!!

Yeah BOYEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tupelo Bay PDGA B-tier December 8th &amp; 9th 2007
Tupelo Bay Golf Complex Garden City SC

Field limited to 108 players
All divisions $80 entry fee - this includes greens fees and cart fees. All players will ride in carts.
All Ams will receive a voucher for a DX disc, if you are confident you are going to cash you can save the voucher and combine it with your payout.

Mike will post the PayPal link later tonight.

Please remember that half of all entry fees will be paid to the course. Unless we get a significant amount of sponsorship the pay out is going to seem low.

Please spread the word!!!

Word. I'll be hitting up the paypal later. Thank goodness for no final exams this semester.

Yes!!!! We have lift off!!! Launch that sucker deep into the fairway....
Way to go Kirk, glad to see the vision moving forward.
Disconcepts will work with you into this venture, as we show the golfing community just how serious we are about this game. The Myrtle Beach area is typically slow on numbers this time of year which gives us disc golfers a great selling point on filling their dead time.

Paypal is now live. Had too many adult sodas last night.

no cryztal buzzz action? :(

Stack,

Unfortunately in this area the cryztal buzzz doesn't sell very well. The last time I had some I never sold them all.

I still have some if you want them.

The Destroyers will be $25
