Mini and CupcAce thumber

I'm pretty sure that Todd and Mike have been concentrating on Horizons and that everything will be updated now that Horizons is over

you and Dawn are on the list BIGROCK, just sign Andrew and myself up. Play adv Masters, coming after you old friend.

At 10:00 am next Saturday, we still should be tied, and by the way I usually start a tnmt you'll probably have a lead on me after the first few holes, but after I get the Thumb going, I'm coming after you.

I can't wait. odds are we could be on the same card BIGROCK. how cool would that be. WE can be twins. wear your BIGROCK shot-out tee.

Will the dress code be enforced, will we have to wear a collared shirt? Yes same card would be cool, give me something to laugh at when you try to reach the top of the hill on hole 4 i think, against a 40mph wind. I rolled down it several times, but only once during the round.

That's a good question! what did you wear last year. This is our first state games. I will have to get Night owl Graphics to do Andrew's collard shirts early. was waiting until week or two before worlds. He just got his 2007 tour Tee's. For none major Tournaments. We both wear Tee's at B's and C's

Then Tee's it is. I think only collared is required at A tier according to Robert, and he is usually correct

Mini Thumber

dress codes only apply to pros at NT's and Majors baggers get to wear whatever they want

Awsome, and thanks for the Big Wave, Dave. I can see it fromhere. Ok Baggey Bagger clothes it for the state games.
Baggie thong, and Baggie Tank Top. Awsome.

I took two of my friends that will be playing the tournament out to Greensboro after work on Friday. Lots of construction going on. Hole 2's basket was missing. We spoke to a grounds person there and he said due to 'ground soil contamination' that all events were cancelled at the park, including the state games. He also said nobody would be allowed to play during the week. I'm just relaying the message he told me in case someone was planning on traveling to practice the course. You should check to make sure the course is playable. Someone might want to contact the TD to find out if the games are going to be moved or cancelled all together.


Also, I think its worth mentioning that I shot a personal best out there with a -12 playing only 17 holes. Not exactly sure what the course record is out there. Hopefully I'm coming out of my slump I've been in lately.

Uh , excuse, advance masters is from the short pads since it is the am div for old f$^#s.
Mini Thumber

Great job Tatersack. Johnson st. deserves this event. Let see how many Golds we can keep at Johnson st.

Go Team Oak Hollow.

we can always drop down and bag BigRock. I have to defend Johnson st. I go where you go.

Mens Advanced ONLY will play the blue tees 2nd round. All other divisions will play shorts both rounds.

Thanks for the help you sack of taters.

and what division can we play to stay on the shorts?
I would like to have a shot at red numbers. That was fun, Ill go where you go, not looking forward to the longs either
Mini Thumber

Johnson Street weekly singles Tuesday's at 6:00pm


Come on out on Tuesday at 6:00 weekly singles $5. entry $1 ace pool. come out for a practice round.

That means you too BigRock and Dawn.

Is this thing gonna fill?

If the advanced division is playing blues, will that not affect the player ratings? Dont you have to have 10 players to a division to get a round rating?

don't know about the ratings part of the question. I registered Andrew and myself online on monday. I have reciepts but not on the list yet. so there are more than being shown. it could fill. I understand at past Games. there are a few walk up's/first time players the day of the event.

The ammount of propegators needed for a round to be rated use to be 10, not sure what it is now. My guess is 5?

PM Chuck Kennedy, he will know for sure.

This is for you tater.

Mini Thumber

Mini Thumber, returning Bronze medalist. Got Lucky

There are people preregistered who don't yet appear on the PDGA site/list. I asked Todd about this since I have confirmation from State Games but am not on the list; he said that they only send him the updated list every so often. I imagine there are a fair number of people who have registered but aren't yet appearing on the PDGA page.

Ken

Thanks Ken, If we get enough of us Am Masters/Int Masters were gonna register in that division so we dont have to compete with the great ones.

Mini Thumber, can I begin one tournament with a par, please God, one tnmt

there is no such thing as intermediate masters in PDGA events.

How about Junior Masters?

Mini Thumber, can I begin one tournament with a par, please God, one tnmt



I know what you mean BigRock, I started play tournaments so Andrew could play. I didn't care. Now that Care the rating keeps going south.

But this weekend Is a new Day.

Over 40 Intermediates, That will work. I can see right now I will be forced to play with the younger generation. Last year we played Recreational, Here I come again!, Word, still Fun
Mini Thumber, still want to par first hole, during my recreational round

Call the Ball BigRock . I'm with you. what ever Division you choose. I don't care what people think. I want gold

BigRock, The pre-reg list is updated. Andrew and I are on it. You and I have to move down. look at all those 900+ baggers.

If we dont have an Intermediate Master, or Recreational Master, then It's Intermediate for me. One of these days, SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW, SING WITH ME, Ill have a 900 rating
Mini Thumber

GL HF everyone and we'll see you tomorrow

Go play Reidsville's new course! It is awesome!

how would i get there from charlotte?

Google this address 630 Water Works Rd, Reidsville NC for directions

Bunch of par 5s and 4s, I think par was around 66. They will have signs and scorecards ready next week. Course is one of the best I have played and less then 20 miles from my house!

$2 per car fee, but well worth it.

scores are up!!! wow what a day yesterday, 2nd win ever, highest rated round ever. I would like to thank Todd G, State Games, HP P& R, all our volunteers that help get water on the course, add scores, and all the little things that go unnoticed. you know who you are, and if you helped in any way THANKS.

if you are wondering about ratings, mens advanced only played, white then blue, everyone else played white, then white again.

Besides me, who noticed that 11 yr old bagger that shot a 910 rated round. No wonder he's a World Champ. Good Stuff Lil Andrew (kicked my Butt) Coggins. Thanks to Todd and Tater and all the rest of those that pitched in, and congrats to the Little Predohomme girl and her 120 ft up shot that went in. Good stuff coming from the younger Caroliniaians.
Mini Thumber, proud member of team FFF

Thanks Rocky, I will pass that on to Andrew.
Thanks for my beating, you backed up ever thing to said. You shot good old friend.

Check you mail sent photo's of you and Dawn.

for those that won medals pm me with your email address I will send you a photo.

Was there a payout or just medals? I assume since this event was sanctioned that standard PDGA 40% merch payout was upheld.

you can get away with not doing the 40% with trophy only
