Did it rain?

As many people in the DF/W area that have been sick this week I would bet that you can add a few more to that list after this weekend. :D

I sure am glad that I am warm and dry on my couch.

Does that mean it rained over there?

Oh it rained!! :D

Nolan popped an ACE on 14. Hear E-Mac has the lead just don't know how far down.

It was a Hard Round in the Rec Division. My Crown Taste Good.

Yea. Nolan called me from the course during some sort of delay and told me about his ace.

40 min's for Lightning... just enough time to walk in and walk back,,,

that should be a 800+ ace pot...good start

that should be a 800+ ace pot...good start



Advertised at 1200, Now

even better..wasn't sure of the total after the mid-week since none of us hit it

It drizzled of and on with one big lighting delay about 1 or so. Looks like the adv groups will have about1 round and 4 to 5 holes left tomo. Pros have 2 full rounds left.

I was on Nolans card. Skipped ace 14 from the long. everybody else thows a midrange and he skip aces with a Tee Rex...... It was sweet though!

I THINK the top 4 are like this.
Emac- 49
That Schultz guy- 50
ME :D- 51
Nolan- 54

Dont know if thats for sure, but thats what I got from the talk amongst the players.

what is the schedule tomorrow?

pro's & ams (rec/int) at 7:30, adv 3rd rnd. after that. Then pros, recs, int. again

Thanks Matt.

No prob Brian, apparently the adv. still have 4 or 5 holes they have to finish from todays 2nd round. when that will take place I do not know.

Here is what we have so far. (http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournament_results.php?TournID=7544#Open)

I gotta say that none of those 136 are fair weather golfers. What a horrible day.

Lead card in Adv. has hole one to play. Adv Masters have 2 to 3 holes left and the Adv Ladies have 5 to play.

Pro Pool early and late. Adv in the middle, and skins postponed until next year.

I think most of the ADV division got their round in. I know my group finished out.

I think most of the ADV division got their round in. I know my group finished out.



Only the lead card didn't finish. Wusses. My card finished on hole 11 throwing blind in the dark. We had to throw, hope and listen to figure out which way to walk. :D

We finished on 4. You let it go prayed to stay in bounds and then looked for your disc in the fairway. Woo hoo, it was fun. :D

Okay, Hero....

Get on your cell phone and give us an update......please. :D

E-mac won.

At least one more ace was hit today.

Thats all I was paying attention to.

Brian

Nice win Sprout. Your face will stay dropkick free for now. :D

E-mac
Schultz
Nolan
Miles
and I think PT.

I would like to say that it was a real pleasure to watch Funkytowns ( z-boaz local ) Miles represent on his home course in such a grand fashion. There has never been a local pro that stepped up like that @ home . And for that I give you props!!

You truly are funkytown's finest, and a class act at that !

Way to go!!

Big up's to all the flyers and their stellar performance
through out the Big Show. Notables :

Charles Cox in his 4th straight old man bagger's win.
Teague... Way to play up and play strong.

There have been a bunch of you this week, to many to name
them all!

WAY TO REPRESENT !

Jay Reading actually finished 5th and myself in 6th, but I gladly welcome the promotion!! ;)

There has never been a local pro that stepped up like that @ home .



I too am impressed with the Nats play these past few months and I don't mean to take anything away from that....I just couldn't let that statement go without pointing out that Nolan won the VPO a couple of years ago, but comparing Miles' play to Nolan's is quite a statement in itself.
Congrats MS

Well thanks for the compliments! Comparing me to Nolan means a lot, although I dont dress as badly. :D

I did forget to do one thing tonight at the awards, thanks to all the Flyers who supported me, you guys are awesome! And I do have one sponsor to thank, Miles the 3rd!

Congrats Miles. Very impressive play today.

Brian

Here is the results. (http://www.pdga.com/tournament/tournament_results.php?TournID=7544#Open)

Thanks to all that showed. What a difference a day can make.

More tomorrow.

Skip I think that Lee was referring to playing at Z Boaz in the Z Boaz Open. Miles is a Z Boaz Local, where Nolan is a DFW Local.

Great showing Miles. Now how many 1000+ rated players did you have to beat.....never mind.

BTW Miles your new nick name is The Meteorologist. :D

Good job Brice

Way to go Miles! You are definately getting comfortable in Open. :D

daaaaaaaaang nice shooting E-Mac!!

Looks like Barry's game is "back" so to speak. Is he still putting with a standard stance?

and skins postponed until next year.





So did the skins cash go into the Purse?

Good job Brice



Thanks David. My second tournament of the year and my second last place cash of the year. Who says you can't cash in open playing 970 rated golf.

Miles you might want to call Aerobie and see if they will sponsor you.

Looked like a blast, I wanted to come, but my back was giving me grief. Sucks to get old......

Brian, any word on Giles Memorial? East Texas wants to know.

Thanks to Mace and the FunkyTown Flyers! I've never missed a Zboaz Open, and probably never will!
Congrats to Miles! you played some good golf this weekend.

BTW Miles your new nick name is The Meteorologist. :D


:D


Miles you might want to call Aerobie and see if they will sponsor you.


Thats a good idea Brice! Then I could be like Nolan and putt with an arrow! :D

Good Job Miles!! ;) :D

Good playing with some of the top DG'ers ; Yeti , Emac , Geoff Bennett and John :o:D( first card )

Can't say I did well that round but it was fun.

Thank's Mace for A Great Event!!!

Thanks Mace for putting together another fine M/M production. Looking forward to the next in the series. Lee, thanks for the props. Also hats off to Brandon for keeping me in beer this weekend. You did Mr. Covalt proud sir. :cool:

Sounds like it was a blast! Congrats to all that cashed!

Those first round ratings are whack!

Dang! Would someone take down Cox in a box?

We finished on 4. You let it go prayed to stay in bounds and then looked for your disc in the fairway. Woo hoo, it was fun. :D



we finished in the dark on hole 1 and 2, and pulled out pars, i second the woo hoo, it was an effing blast :D

WTG Miles keep getting better...
Big Big huge thanks to the *hole who decided to Blast SNOOP DOG Right by hole 1. May you forever hit the first tree right off the box.
Good tourney otherwise. Enjoyed playing with everyone on my cards.

ce

It was a nutty Z-Boaz Open to say the very least. I hope we all realize some of sacrifices the Mace Men make to put on some fun-filled events for us all. You need to run an event to really know what I mean and I highly recommend it.

I had great people to play with all weekend and wanted to congratulate the up and comers who are welcome additions having taken that next STEP. This group is poised for great things- Miles, PT, Longerbone, Bo and Kinter!

Double Bogey to the guy, er jerk who timed his "drive by horning" on Hole #4 perfectly to Miles birdie putt :mad:

Thanks to the Ams and others that made for a great last round gallery. As a pro, it always awesome to have folks watching who appreciate the skills we all work so hard to attain.

We actually had casual disc golfers that wanted to watch instead of trying to play through ;) :cool::D

Congrats to Eric McCabe...dude is having a great start to the 08 season, keep it up.

There has never been a local pro that stepped up like that @ home .

I think Nolan and his sponsor would agree with that statement , but I was refering to my home course .

No kidding. My buddy has it on tape to. Once I get it I will post it somewhere.

The look on that guys face when I told him there was a tourney going on was priceless. He stepped on 1's short box and turned around to find 40 people staring at him! :D

Double Bogey to the guy, er jerk who timed his "drive by horning" on Hole #4 perfectly to Miles birdie putt :mad:





I would like to further elaborate on this point the Yeti made.

It was the start of the last round E-mac, Nolan , Yeti, Miles , and Barry all got off to a solid start . Miles bombs one just short of Nolan and has a little wind issue on his upshot. Any golfer will tell you that a 3 on this hole is a good feeling . Miles left himself a very makeable 35-40 footer . He set's up his putt, and at the EXACT point of release, THE WORLDS LARGETS [censored] BAG drives by and honks his horn, with an obvious adverse affect . The young " natural " maintained composure , and finsihed out the hole with a very respectable 4 . I must applaud him for that , for it did not break his game nor spirits.


For your age ,composure like that is seldom seen. Bravo!

PT Bling Bling Bling Bling :D:cool:Nice showing. We are very proud of you over here on the east side. :)Mace, wish I could of made it but 3 in a row was not in the stars. :( But had a blast the last week in the first two tourny's. You did a great job in both and we appreciate your efforts. :cool:If you choose to hold all 3 events in one week or not , we'll be there. Tournaments Rock :cool:

Well I did atleast clap at the guy! :DBut it was MY missed putt. While it was upsetting and uncalled for, we all have our moments of acting like morons and I dont hate the guy. Besides, it gave Nolan an extra 80 bucks, and I know he has more use for it then I do.

That, my friends, is a show of class from a gentlemen far more mature than his age. We should all take notes (Scooter)!!!! :o:D

Just messing with you Matt, I know you are reading this post!!! ;)

I did not show quite the maturity that Miles showed after the Snoop Dog Incident, but later apologized to all on my card. Lets just say I was a little tired. Maybe Next Year

Thanks Jay, I appreciate it! ;) AND I also second all of Jay's comments on MACE'S tourneys!! It was a great couple of weeks. It was a pleasure playing with GREAT players.. Hopefully I picked up a thing or two from those guys!!

does this mean that we'll have too choose between crowley and arcadia/north park on saturdays? being that i'm exactly the same distance from both it's still an easy choice. that's all i'm gonna say about this as i'm sure there will be plenty of discussion.

PGM

Please provide the background on this event and Why it is held.

it's a great event that's been going for several years. It became the Paul Giles Memorial when Paul passed away.

(usually) 3-4 rounds of 24 holes at a very fun course. the 6 added for this event are very cool holes. The other 18 are a lot of fun. Some great aceruns and some really challenging holes. I recommend it highly. If Mace ever decides to bring back the safari final 9... even more greatness :)

does this mean that we'll have too choose between crowley and arcadia/north park on saturdays?




I hear what you're saying. Cedar Hill, Crowley, Irving, Lewisville, Dallas....a lot of club events on saturdays. The bottom line is we all want this sport to grow and there's only 2 weekend days to choose from. It's actually been kind of nice watching it all grow.

It's actually been kind of nice WATCHING it all grow.



And for me its been really nice PLAYING while it grows! :D

LOL. I literally had already PLAYED this game before you were born! (according to the 6/12/1985 birthdate in your profile) My first round of, what was then called Frisbee Golf, was in 1984 at a Summer Camp in East Texas! I was 12 years old.

WOW..... Then it must have taken you like 15 years to go pro. :D

WOW..... Then it must have taken you like 15 years to go pro. :D



No, Hero is so old that when he started there wasn't an amateur division. If you played in a tournament you played pro. :eek: :p :D

LOL. Not quite. Just played object golf for 1 week a year at summer camp through the late 80's with Midnight Flyer discs supplied by camp :eek:. Didn't touch a disc or a frisbee from 88-92 b/c i was a hardcore skateboarder and thought frisbees where for Gong A Yong people. Rediscovered DG while in college in Tulsa in late 1992. Courses actually had baskets now!!!! Played in college from 92-93. Stopped again. Picked it back up full time and discovered the ADGA and tournament golf in 1995. So technically it only took me 3 years to turn pro. :D

ADGA and tournament golf in 1995

and now has stopped on and off due to birthings :)

So technically it only took me 3 years to turn pro. :D




hmmmmm. Same here now I am destined to be a 990 rated player for the rest of my career. :D

So, who won this thing ?



I was told it was a small turnout all together, only 10 players total.

Only 4 in open, and big Dave Kinter birdies 4 out of his last 5 to beat C. Fles! :eek: Well done DK!

I had family plans that weekend. Any idea on scores. I played out their recently with some friends (-6 blind) then (-9 2nd Rnd.) Just curious how it stands up. Peace.

Last place probably JD. Maybe not that bad but definately not as good as Cfles. :D


Good luck in ATL

54 and 52 won open this saturday. For the midweek mid february Geoff Bennot shot 50, 48. -9 would probably be the coarse record.
48 was a 1030 rated round.
Good shooting JD

dang JD thats awful, i could shoot 9 down in my sleep :D
actually its the only way i could shoot 9 down :D

good luck at ATL, we'll miss you at TXstates

Thanks guys its a nice course. I hate to miss Tx States, I just got to Defend my ATL title, its unfortunate about the dates on the same weekend. Be safe and have fun in Houston.

-9 would probably be the coarse record. Good shooting JD.



I have a couple of problems with the aformentioned statement. One, casual rounds can't be a record. Two, course is misspelled. Finally, three, i used to really like JD....... <font color="red">but then he started to murder me on the course! </font> ;) <font color="blue"> Good luck in Hotlanta JD! </font>

Just messing w/ ya Mark! :D

10, wow!
WEAK SAUCE!

I have to keep up my slender figure. :o:D

It was the best finish I've ever had :D :D. C. Fles may not have been happy but he was a good sport in letting me know that it was a good finish. :cool:

Luv them Pork Chops - NOT the apple sauce....

Any one know the real date for Athens. One place says April and one place says May?

its always last weekend of April

Brian, we going to do A to Z? clap your hands and say yeah!

FYI : Brian currently does not have the capacity to post on the MB...... So if you are looking for a response , his website will prolly help you communicate with the MaceMan.

Lats weekend in April is the date for the PGM. Mace posted it here and that's what he gave me for titledisc. go get signed up! Athens is always good times. I'll be in Athens on Sunday, probably going to get in a round if anyone is looking for a preview or just some bad company ;)

FYI : Brian currently does not have the capacity to post on the MB...... So if you are looking for a response , his website will prolly help you communicate with the MaceMan.




The dates on his website are woefully inaccurate

LSDGA says May, Title Disc says April. Just wanted to make sure. Mace Man web site is no help.

the titledisc date is correct. I'll send Gary an email to update lsdga. Thanks for the heads up!

Titledisc is not correct, at least not correct according to the scehdule I sent out earlier in the year.
The last weekend in April is Texas Women's and a particular effort was made to not have these two conflict this year as they had in year's past.
I also didn't want PPO and PGM on back to back weekends. The large crush of tournaments in late February and early May forced a lot of shuffling.

But As I have always said, I can only make recommendations about the schedule. TDs will always do what they want.

when will you guys know for sure, tournament is next weekend.

TDs will always do what they want.



&lt;----------------shakin head....................WHY!

Next year lets take another step backwards in Texas working together.......Then the PDGA can take something else away from Texas. WE WILL NEVER BE REPRESENTED AS A DISC GOLF ENTITY UNTIL WE GET IT TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!
People must like playing with the same handful of players every weekend

Texan dreaming about Bowling Green turnouts

I agree about the unity V-man but you also have to remember that Bowling Green is in the middle of the US and draws players from all over. If you are a visual learner, draw a 5-7 hour drive circle around Bowling Green to see the markets it draws from and then do the same for Houston, Austin, or DFW. Huge difference!

Kev McCoy used to always say that if TX States (houston) was in the middle of the country, there would be a waiting list 200 people long.

So when the F is the A to Z doubles tourney???? And is there still going to be one??? It's VERY HARD to ask off for the time if I can't find anything accurate... and I refuse to pour over pages and pages of blather for an outdated post.


I'm getting frustrated.

ahhh, i love it when you say "blather"

so what is the lsdga date for athens? and why would he give the wrong date to titlediscman? why is the blather blue?

I guess we're making progress. We had a waitlist of 3 people at tee-off! :)


And while we're discussing event dates, when is Waco this year? I've seen references to the 1st and 2nd weekends in June.

I was told, by Mark Bowman, who lives in Waco, that Waco parks dept was shutting down parts of the course's to do some work on the park. As far as Athens LSDGA says May 3-4. I emailed Mace from his web site never got an answer.

Ah Bender-san. So glad to see Kat has yet to domestic you and allows you to still post. :cool:I have a ? off the beaten path, where the poop did my scores for the Big Show week go? I'm almost certain i had 3 events attended, "after" Lewisville. I guess I will have to get my P.I. on the case:

http://images.askmen.com/galleries/actress/amy-adams/pictures/amy-adams-picture-1.jpg :cool:

Here is the word from the man himself.

It is April 26-27, next weekend.

Hope to see you there.

When the TD files the sanctioning agreement.

Okay ladies and gentlemen, I have not heard much discussion on this so I thought I would push it some. The Paul Giles Memorial will be held this weekend in Athens, April 26-27. The plan had been for the Athens Club to step up and take it, but there have been some issues, so Maceman agreed to take it on again. You can sign up at www.titledisc.com (http://www.titledisc.com) and need to sign up before the weekend. If you do not plan on signing up on line, please remember there is a $10 late registeration fee.

Generally the format includes the existing 18 plus 6 more holes. If you have a spare basket, please bring it over. The Tyler Rose City Disc Club will be bringing some baskets, but we want to make sure we are covered.

This tounament is in honor of a great disc golfer that passed away seaveral years back. I never met him, but have heard great things about him. Please try and make this in honor of Paul Giles. The tournament is always a blast and should be a lot of fun again this year.

got an email over the weekend from Gordon saying that the event is non-sanctioned

I see 8 have signed up.

I had thought that Brian had planned on making it a C Tier, but I am guessing that since he took it over so late, he has not had the chance to raise any sponsorship money. Sooooo,,.... I guess we will be playing for each other's money instead of each others and sponsor money ;)

This is one of Brian's, North Texas series events and if it holds true to form, he will at least be bringing any ace money he might have.

I am making a mass call out.... if you have a basket you can bring, PLEASE BRING IT!!! The club will be coming over from Tyler, but as of right now we do not have enough baskets for the extra six holes. Please, Please, please bring baskets!


got an email over the weekend from Gordon saying that the event is non-sanctioned

There will be more by Thursday night.

Too bad it is the same weekend as TWC, guess the ladies and their fellas/caddies/escorts will have to miss this one.

I know I had great fun last year, and would have loved to play there again..........maybe next year.

multiple events on the weekends will be the norm from now on with so many different series being ran. example: CC and Nac :confused: so instead of 1 big tournament there were 2 ok sized tournaments.

It still stinks. :)

welcome to TEXAS :o

email from mace from gordon


The following is from Brian Mace�




Hey Everyone,

I would like to invite you to Athens next weekend for an "Old School Birdie Contest". It is time for the Paul Giles Memorial 2008.

This will be a Non-Sanctioned North Texas Series event. It will have all the usual features, including at least $200 added to the Pro Purse, just no PDGA fee's.

It will be a 72 hole event, playing 2 24 hole rounds on Saturday, and 48 more holes to wrap things up on Sunday.

Pre-registration is available on www.titleDisc.com. (http://www.titleDisc.com.)

If you have any questions drop me a line.

Brian

There was nothing big on the calendar for the first weekend in May, it would have been nice if it could have waited one week, that's all.

When is A-Z??? Will this be in May Mace?

Not only is it the weekend of the TWC it is also the Glass Blown Open which at least 5 open players from DFW are going to.

When are we going to get our ducks in a line in Texas?
Seems like every weekend there are event conflicting with one another.

IMO we need to get rid of all C-Tiers and only have one B-Tier every other week. What is the point of having hundreds of small tournaments? I would much rather see 12-15 big tournaments in Texas a year.

i don't know, there were only 5 people from dfw at pecan park open last weekend, and the only conflict was in corpus christi, i doubt anyone from dfw went there, but still not many came from dfw to nacadogches. i dont know what that means, just an observation [insert graemlin shrugging shoulders here] ;)

The placement for this weekend falls almost exclusively on the last minute change from the Athens club handling the event to Maceman, please don't blame anyone. I was asked if I could run the event and I said "NO!", but that I would be more than happy to help. The Athen's crew had every intent of running the event. However, there were unforeseen occurances that made it impossible for them to run it. Maceman was asked to do it, after he had already made commitments. The regional coordinator tried to schedule it for the first weekend in May, but Brian already had other responsibilities. As I understand it, the options were to either run it this coming weekend or to not have it.

I plan on being more involved with it next year and may even be a playing TD with outside help, however the problem is trying to develop sponsorhip when you live 40 miles away. The Athens club simply is not strong enough to run it yet and I am involved with my own club. Maybe Athens will change next year. I am not responsible for it being this weekend and for East Texas, I am sorry it is causing conflict, however it is continuing for this year to keep the tradition alive.

It will be a 72 hole event, playing 2 24 hole rounds on Saturday, and 48 more holes to wrap things up on Sunday.



Macemath?

Macemath?



No doubt about it. It is supposed to be 72 holes total. Two rounds on Sat and one on Sun.

Just in case..... if Maceman does not let me know before hand, I will commit to running doubles on Friday. Times will be posted later.

I personally didn't even give the PPO a look this year because of what happened to me last year. I think that a lot of people had a bad taste in their mouth that was left over from last year's TD at the Pecan Park Open. I am not trying to take anything away from the guys that ran it this year, but to go down and get my best finish in a B-tier and not receive a payout doesn't help convince me to come back. I hated missing this event, especially since I had played it two years in a row. I will be back next year fo show!

Titledisc is not correct


how them words taste, OMB? :D

get signed up, folks. I played the course on Sunday and its looking great. There is going to be a big crowd from Athens and Tyler. I'm sure once the internet makes it that far East, those folks will pre-register as well :). I'm pretty sure Mace will take registrations in person on Friday only (during doubles) without the $10 late fee, but your best bet is http://www.titledisc.com .

This is going to be a great event, even if we will be short on ladies. We hated having to choose between the events, but we have a free place to stay in Athens, and it's less than half the distance... so we're playing Athens. I hope to see you all there.

Do you want an honest answer to that question ?

i understand that, but the this years event was run by the new emerging local club, they put there heart and soul into it and i was glad to go just to support there efforts. last year rick danger did a dash and that was on him. did anyone ever track him down and stab a stick in his eye?

Do you want an honest answer to that question ?


I should expect no less ;)

a few more have pre-registered and I expect that number to double tomorrow. Get off yer butts folks.... don't slow us down the morning of by showing up at the last minute to register. here's a direct link:

Late fee on a non-sanctioned event?

We hated having to choose between the events, but we have a free place to stay in Athens, and it's less than half the distance... so we're playing Athens. I hope to see you all there.



As usual, the women always come up short. :o How many events are there each year for women only? :confused:

I do understand the reasons why, but we will miss having you all along for the festivities. :(

yeah it was a very tough decision. Money was a big part of it, plus the PGM was Deidre's first tournament ever, so there's some sentimental value there. Also, I can't leave work early on Friday to get us down your way in time for a comfortable evening before the tournament... Next year though. TWC will be our #1 priority for Spring events.

if it's unsanctioned, and no pdga fees, then why is it still more expensive than a sanctioned tournament? ($40 for MA2 vs. $35 for MA2 at the PIAS open)?

amen..thanks Mr Cox

Late fee on a non-sanctioned event?


It's not my call to make, but the late fee has nothing to do with sanctioning. It has to do with encouraging people to get their info in before the last possible minute so we can start on time more easily.

I have said in the past that I agree with the late fee and I stand by that. There are so many ways to get registered before the morning of the event... online, snail-mail, even in person at a previous North Texas event or at doubles the day before this event. Why would anyone want to create that last-minute hassle for themselves, the TD, or the rest of the players? I dunno... but if they do, I think $10 is fair.

Not trying to bust your chops, but would have loved to have ALL OUR GREAT LADIES in attendance!

Have fun, I had a great time last year, and will miss PGO!

if it's unsanctioned, and no pdga fees, then why is it still more expensive than a sanctioned tournament? ($40 for MA2 vs. $35 for MA2 at the PIAS open)?


just because there are cheap sanctioned tournaments does not mean that unsanctioned should be cheaper. Mace stuck with his normal 2-day prices. The PDGA fees being removed from the pool just ups the payout.

I was going to say something along those lines but didn't want to in case there's no upage.:DI know there's a lot of hidden costs in running an event, a lot more than the normal guy thinks. Add PDGA fees, insurance, and players packages and there goes your AM payout. Just go to have fun and see old friends. You'll get a lot more out of it that way. I sure do wish i could attend. You wouldn't hear me complaining. ;)

josh, thanks for the answer.

As usual, the women always come up short. :o How many events are there each year for women only? :confused:



how many events are there for men only? :p

instigator :)

instigator :)



:D:p :D:p :D:p

Yes, I think that there were many people that felt that way. The Nac club, however, did their best to make this year a better event. They had some first time problems, but they learned and plan to continue running the event in the future. You and many other ams got sc&amp;*@d by a crook, however, he is not associated with the Nac club.

Next year though. TWC will be our #1 priority for Spring events.


But who is "our"?
I have worked the TWC to be the states focus from day one.
"OUR" SHOULD BE THE PDGA, TEXAS TD'S and every player of Texas.

As usual, the women always come up short. :o How many events are there each year for women only? :confused:



how many events are there for men only? :p



My thoughts, at least this week we won't have to put up with attitudes like this. :D :p ;) :p :D

And so the facts are know......THERE WAS NOTHING PLAN AGAINST TWC.....until a part of the "our focus" lost their focus

hee hee, :Dyou know im kidding, :p i know lots of girls who cherish the oppurtunity to compete with more than just a few girls, i wish them all the luck


and when Josh said "our priority" i think he meant his girlfriend Diedre, they usually do twc. ;)

Diedre will be missed this year!

All in fun around here, right? :D

yeah I was just speaking for Deidre and myself. Don't worry, Vinnie, you already have almost every lady golfer from DFW signed up for TWC :). If they were the same distance away and we could stay for free at either, we'd definitely go to TWC. That says a lot, especially considering that I'd rather caddy for Deidre at TWC than play an event myself.

Truth be told, there wasn't really a decision to make... If there wasn't a tournament in Athens this weekend, we wouldn't be able to play in a tournament at all. We simply could not afford the time and money to get down to TWC this weekend. Being off of work for a month kinda decided this one for us.

Next year though, vinnie... we'll be there. with bells on. Unless, of course, you schedule it during our honeymoon :D

speaking of which, is there a reg list for twc?

Why you want to sign up :eek:

Why you want to sign up :eek:



burn baby burn :o




and yes :D

online registration for the PGM has been extended until noon tomorrow. Just over 24 hours to get signed up!

http://www.titledisc.com/prereg.php?eventid=330

Okay friends and family, here is the skinny....

Doubles will be run flex start from 5 to 6. There is plenty of light so starting close to 6 should work fine and this gives the people driving any distances a chance to get in as well. Brian may start doubles earlier, but with his other commitments, this is a gauranteed time.

Registeration will be taken at the course starting Friday afternoon around 4 until probably around 8 and early Saturday morning. There has been a change.... there will not be a late fee charge.

Players meeting will be at 9:00 AM on Saturday morning.

IF YOU HAVE A BASKET PLEASE BRING IT!!! This year the Tyler Rose City Disc Club, cannot provide all the needed baskets and I am not sure of the state of the Athen's club baskets. So please bring one.

See everyone this weekend!!!

I should be bringing my basket with me just in case. If it's not needed then I'll use it for practice :)

we might be able to get there in time for doubles tomorrow afternoon... will there be a mixed division? :D

I am not sure if there will be or not. I am sure Brian would run it if there is enough interest.

I suppose we could just play Am... what divisions are you planning to have for doubles?

Brian will be running doubles, but I would guess Open, Adv and Am.

Okay gang some info and then I will probably be off for the rest of the day.

Brian will be taking registeration at the park. He will not be charging late registeration fees, but requests that if you are signing up late, please do so as early as possible. Doubles will be flex start running from 5 till 6. Brian will be driving over this afternoon and will probably start taking money for doubles as soon as he has completed setup.

Players meeting is AT 9AM on Saturday morning. We will be playing two rounds on Saturday and one on Sunday for a total of 72 holes.

One last note, please bring your basket. In years past the Tyler club has brought all their extra baskets, and we will bring as many as we can this year as well, but it is not quite as many as in years past. If you bring your basket and we don't use it, that will mean extra putting baskets. If you don't bring your basket and we are short, then we won't be playing 72 holes for the weekend.

Jerry - I do *not* have my basket as planned. There is an issue with the base that would not make it a good tournament basket until I fix it. Please don't count on mine being available.

Does anyone know if the Big Show from February will make it to our tournament history before updates next week ? I played a c tier two weeks ago and it's already showing up on my history for this year. Why is that, no show for big show 2 month's ago, but yes for 1 just 2 weeks ago ?

sometimes paperwork takes a while. I'm not certain, but it's a very strong likelihood that if it's not in your history as of now, it won't be going in the update.

Josh, if you have the transport, I have baskets.
Get in touch if you want to pick them up.

Gary, you have a PM

Online registrations are up to 16 total and there will be many more signing up this afternoon. We should have a decent turnout :)

I know it's short notice, but Mace has announced the data for A-Z doubles this year. May 10th and 11th (yes, Mother's Day weekend as usual). It should hopefully be available for registration on titleDISC today. More info to come either from Mace or by proxy :)

crap, my partner cant play mothers day :(

I might need a partner :D

Mace has announced the data for A-Z doubles this year. May 10th and 11th (yes, Mother's Day weekend as usual.)



Ouch. That pretty much snuffs my chances of playing. My wife and MOTHER of my children would snuff me if i chose to play.

i dont understand the importance of this hallmark holiday, you buy a card you drop it off you say good to cya, cya soon, wham bam its over with, now lets go play golf!

You can do that because you still live at home with your MOM :eek: :o:eek: :D

....but in my case it would cease all future hands on geography lessons. :D

yeah but WHY no geography lessons? neglect the birthday, i get that, but the mom day is so cheesy, all it requires is a card and for you to maybe clean up after yourself for a day. :D(and i dont mean after the geography lesson)

why dont you give her the greatest mom day gift ever; a whole day without looking at your ugly mug :D

...and of course, after waiting so long, I'm unable to get that weekend off in short order. Sigh.

sometimes paperwork takes a while. I'm not certain, but it's a very strong likelihood that if it's not in your history as of now, it won't be going in the update.


BOOOOOOO!!!! :mad:

LOL BBD

Texas States was turned in and it was the week before the dead line.

Will A-Z be sanctioned - pardon me if I already missed it up there somewhere previously

BOOOOOOO!!!! :mad:




Is anyone else missing the Big Show on their history report ? I had a couple of high rated rounds, I was looking forward to seein how much my rating would go up.

CH, MW AND Z are not there

Mace?

Who won?

Poor showing over all, Chris Farnham took open, Mark Thomas took Masters and would have taken first in open if he hadn't been playing Masters. The Masters group as a whole played better than second place open. Jim Bridges took advanced. Sorry no scores.

How many players?

I figured it would not have been worth the drive. I didn't even know it was going on untill the wed before the tourney.

At least he couldn't blame late sign ups for making the players meeting late. :eek:

How many players?



<font color="red"> 28 players. Not enough to convince Mace to continue running events. It's sad really. He has poured his heart and soul into running events for US, the players. And if you know Mace well enough, then you also know that he certainly isn't riding the CASH cow home after every event. Some events you make money from, others you break even from, and some you even lose money on.....but the normal player doesn't care about that, do they? It's all about Me, Myself, and I!

It looks like the DFW calendar is about to be WIDE OPEN. :confused: I certainly wish i had the time to just blow off events. Must be nice. :mad:</font>

Um, lack of advertising might have been to blame in this instance, don't you think?

Um, lack of advertising?



I can't speak for Mace but I found the event dates posted as far back as March 1st. That's almost 60 days. Maybe it was a SuperTour in KS and an event in RoundRock. Maybe it's gas prices. Maybe it's just lack of interest across the board. Who knows?

Me, Myself, and I!

dont you mean me , myself and irene :D

I feel it is important for all parties involved, that at times like this, we unite, as a community, to put one person out there as the scape goat. Better one go down with the ship so that the rest of us can sleep well at night, happy with the thought that we were never part of the problem. Just everyone keep holding on to their victim status as I nominate My-Nero as the one to bear our cross. Any 2nd's out there? Can I get a witness brothers! I am certain that there are others out there that will be willing to put the man that commonly comes to the Vet's mini's and takes our money without so much as a "thanks for your weak effort, but remember, I am the Kong!". There you go guys, now I've got your attention. You know you want to see him tied to a Star Max and thrown into the Grand Canyon. So come on, let me hear your rightous indignition loud and clear. My-Fiero blows, My-Fiero blows!!!!!!!! :cool::cool::cool::cool:

I think one of the big reasons with no turn out is that Mace is not a current member so the only persons talking the event up is the titledisc guy for obvious reasons.

Hee-Hee. :DThanks for the years of continued support on Sunday mornings Mr Cox. You best nominate your life long partner Mr Covalt b/c if it's me.....then you'll have another wife and 2 more young ones to provide for while i fight your fight. Come and give me a kiss the next time i see you. Won't it be Wed night? I heard you and the boys were coming to GV this Wed night. :p

As long as GV is more like a speak easy than a disc golf course, I will be unable to attend. As for the Greatness known to many as "Mr. K.C. Dave Covalt", I am no longer his official spokes person. All good things, (including your winning ways), eventually must come to an end. Mr. Covalt has entered into an "Unholy" union with his new and allegedly improved doubles partner, Dave "Arm of Thor" Kinter. As I am the type of person that looks for the best in all situations, it disturbs me to know that within my bossom, I wish for pain and aguish when it come to this pairing. I have not felt this way since I 1st laid eyes on everyone's favorite (excluding myself that is) disc craft acolyte. :cool::cool::cool:

I think one of the big reasons with no turn out is that Mace is not a current member so the only persons talking the event up is the titledisc guy for obvious reasons.



If he's not current, how did he get to run an A-tier this year? :confused:

I was wondering this also...I love Mace running events for us since nobody else wants the thankless job, but don't you have to be current?

and where are the CH, MW and Z results on my ratings update..Duncan was on there and it was just last month???

Why would you have to be current to run an A-tier?

I think as long as the PDGA gets there money they could care less. I believe that he gets somebody else to post scores and so forth.

See Mr. F, you are just a player and don't know the rules. LOL

The days of one man gang TD's (and some staff) are over! The clubs of this state should run events to highlight their course/s. Each of us can be a resourse in someway!

"It looks like the DFW calendar is about to be WIDE OPEN. "
Maybe we can organize the schedule better next year.......allow a player to save money up to travel instead of every week events with no turnout.

TWC is a fine example of how a state can work together.
4 area TD's with many different clubs pitching in to make a state championship.
Now if the male players/organizers of this state would step back and learn a lesson from the ladies

Why would you have to be current to run an A-tier?

I think as long as the PDGA gets there money they could care less. I believe that he gets somebody else to post scores and so forth.



Certified Official status is required to TD any events.
Current membership is required to be a Certified Official.

Maybe that is why the rest of the north texas series has been non sanct tournaments.

I don't think we should have more than one tournament a month in Texas. Being able to choose from three to four dif events to go to a week is killing the attendence.

Good luck with that.

I think the increase in gasoline prices has a lot to do with it, its a good thing to have these local series - HOTT, 3rd Coast 6 pack,etc... for now but some TDs are overlapping events resulting in low attendance.

I don't doubt that one at all..it has made a decision for me on where I travel and don't and I only play 5-10 a year

3 trips to OKC for events along with Duncan already and those are close..

is A-Z happening for sure? Will Cox/Balls play age protected? Will Covalt/Dave play that also, while Tabor/Parker join ADV again? :)

Murphy/Jones is in again

1 win, 1 bad, and 1 tie for first (lost in a playoff - you know how we do on those :) )



If this is going to happen lets see the teams that will there...

I hope this good tourney continues

Keep it up there Murph-ster. You don't want any of this:

http://www.bhargavaz.net/rashi/volcano.jpg :cool:

Adam,

Just keep the Piney Woods Pro-Am on that list of 5-10! We are trying hard to get a THIRD course at Lindsey. Won't that kick *****!

A-Z is May 10th, mothers day weekend for sure. Lets get more than 28 to show for this one.

adam, 'pancake' teague and 'inches of mercury' melton will bring it to you and your girl friend todd. good thing we dont do bagtags for doubles or yall wouldnt show up at all :o:D

I think one of the big reasons with no turn out is that Mace is not a current member so the only persons talking the event up is the titledisc guy for obvious reasons.


hopefully the "obvious reasons" are that I love playing the PGM and have attended every year possible since I started playing. Trust me when I say that the $12 or so I made from online registrations on this event had nothing to do with it. Just like with Mace running tournaments, sometimes I make money, sometimes I don't. I don't run titleDISC for the money.

The main reason I've been trying to talk up these events is to help get the word out while Mace is held silent. I've even offered my official's card up to TD events that Mace does want to sanction while he sorts out the other issues. Remember, the PDGA wants more than just the scores before they post them to our histories. They want their money, too. And they want a LOT of it. I think if you add up all of the money Mace pays the PDGA every year to run these tournaments... plus the insurance money, the city park fees, etc... you'd be very surprised on just how much it really is. here's a hint: it's more than most of us make in a month. probably closer to six months. I think he said that he lost 7 grand on the Big Show alone. Being such a prolific TD is expensive.

Anyway, A-Z doubles *is* happening. As of right now I don't know about the sanctioning status, but honestly... for a doubles event all sanctioning does is cost money. The rounds aren't rated and points are *easy* to come by, so meh. If Mace wants to sanction it then cool. If not... that's cool with me too. May 10-11. It will be available on titleDISC for registration as soon as I get the prices from Mace. That should happen today.

:D

gross

So if all the money due to the PDGA for sanctioning an event (not insuring) is taken straight from the players entery fee and not from am payout profits where is that money now if the PDGA doesn't have it?

is a-z a mace event?

i say we have a non sanctioned a to z, we play for fun, and all the proceeds go to mace mans effort to keep doing what he does for us. we would do it for a club hitting hard times, lets do it for mace, can you say trophy only,bagtag challenging, trash talking, beer drinking, doubles tournament on two rad courses, the entry fee would be less, no payouts, trophy and pride only, who's down?

much of the money you're talking about *is* taken from merch profits. There is a sanctioning fee to pay, insurance, not to mention what the cities charge for permits and vendor fees. the only part taken from the entry fees is the PDGA's per-player fee.

I'd be down for that :). I think we'd have to keep the beer limited to designated areas, but the rest sounds like it would work just fine :)

is a-z a mace event?


Yep, it's been a MaceMan event for a long time :). Always fun. Maybe this year he will be willing to give us a mixed doubles division... if anyone else is interested, I'll ask him

I don't know about proposed beer limitations. I need a certain level of inebriation to really consider an event a sucess. If we can remove any restrictions as it pertains to beer consumption, I believe you would then get my endorsement. :cool:

what about the great one who is sometimes known in his mortal form as Covalt, does he see success in this brave endevour?

I don't know about proposed beer limitations.



Beer? What's Beer? I don't think my eyes have ever been propped open wide enough to see this strangely named substance.

dont worry about it Hero, you cant smoke it

Bring it Teague - though my post was more directed to teams that can play :)

Do any players have anything to donate to a Mace benefit raffle ?

If I can find a partner I'll be there for a no payout Mace benefit. Not sure how much we can raise at one event with lowered entry fees, but if we make a huge raffle, you can donate as much as you feel like.

oh, ouch! ohh oww /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

OK, so I did some digging and found the prices for A to Z from the 2006 tournament. I know the page isn't filled out yet, but since we only have room for 54 teams I thought I would get this posted up ASAP. I will add more info tonight after I get ahold of Mace.

http://www.titledisc.com/eventDisplay.php?eventid=332

Register for A to Z!

FYI - more info is posted to the A-Z registration page on titleDISC. Some important bits:

Players' meeting @ 9am BOTH DAYS
Saturday will be Z-Boaz, Sunday will be the Vet.

one round each of Best Shot, Alternate Shot, Team Score, and the Evil Format (6-6-6).

Get signed up early! the event is capped at 54 teams total, regardless of division.

Bring it Teague - though my post was more directed to teams that can play :)



oh, ouch! ohh oww /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif



I was at lunch w/o much free time ..that's all I had :)

Tell your story walking ( Thanks Bucky ) :)

prices update for those who haven't looked at the list on titledisc yet:

All Pro: $120 / team
All Adv. $100 / team
All Int.: $80 / team
All Rec: $60 / team

Acepot is $10 / team

just over a week away!

update: the days have been switched for this event. Instead of Z on Saturday and Vet on Sunday, we'll do it the other way around. This is to accommodate the ADGA's Sunday mini @ the Vet. titleDISC will be updated in a few mintues.

also... while a no-payout benefit event is certainly a magnanimous gesture, there has been no word from Mace that this year's A-Z will be any different from normal :)

Thanks guys, The ADGA will cancel it's acepot that Sunday. This helps the people like myself who can't make it to a two day event right now.

I flat out won't play if Covalt is allowed.

yet there are many who wouldn't play without him :D

send me a PM if anyone has something they want to put in a "thanks, Mace" raffle

Covalt has been banned, but he has many disguises, he is a discgolf ninja, he is the navy seals of discgolf, he is the priest to your choir boy

I heard he dressed up like Lee's girlfriend for a year before the boomer ever noticed.

Who told ?

A-Z is coming up this weekend!

I've heard of lots of people planning to play, this should be a pretty good turnout and of course lots of fun as usual. See y'all out there

Your Baldness, do you know if sign ups will be taken on Friday or the morning of the event? :cool:
