dam skippy!

You should have seen Schweb and Deacon going at it in 'DISC'. It was pretty great to watch.

Deac with 1st place win and D-Tuck sneaking in at 3rd.

NHDGC had a great presence this past weekend at Hickory.

I had a blast.

I will post pics on the website when able.

Be thinking about Chad and his family with the loss of his Uncle.

My condolensces to you and your family with the transition of your Uncle Chad.

My sympathy's go out to you Chad. i am sorry for your loss!

so I know before Big wave mentioned he heard where a few baskets were going in at a local apartment complex......well I found out from a friend it is at Cape HArbor....off Gordon road... basically at the back area of the complex entrance. I have no idea how many baskets, but there is confirmation baskets well atleast one is in the ground and there. And I know for a fact their gates havent worked in a long, long time.....

it is 9 holes. But please if anybody is planning on playing there just keep in mind this is a course on private property. Please be respectful and low key. there is no reason to carry your bag it is a true pitch and putt. 2 or 3 discs are all you need. Hole 1 is in the front of the complex which is the Gordon road entrance. it is right next to the tennis courts. once again Please Please act accordingly. it would be a shame to lose access to this great little practice spot (especially for me considering it is right across the street from my work)

agreed and well said BWD. This is a gated community, but the gate stays open at this time... so I agree, carry 2-3 discs.... and act like your there cause you should be, we are all a respectful bunch when it comes to courses so hopefully this one stays in the ground and we can periodically gain access to it

Aced hole 13 with a Tee-Rex flick last Wed. evening with DP and RootRoot! 1st ace at the Castle.

SWEET!

So apparently the Property Manager of Cape Harbour has some how found a Blog (i can only assume she found this thread) and has made it painfully clear that Cape Harbour Disc Golf course is for renters ONLY! unless you know someone out there please do not go out there and play as she will kick you out post haste. if you do know someone out there please let me know so i can play out there. it is to close to my work not to take advantage of these baskets. wow that lasted long.

Chi has recently hung out with the guy who lives near #7 tee (Dad of The Beast & The Shark). He might help us out.

I found some pics of the course I played in Switzerland in "04 with Switzerdan. Had a ace run on #9.

http://www.dgcoursereview.com/gallery.php?id=2384&mode=gal

awesome. those kids are great. a name and an apartment number would be really cool.

I actually know a few people that live there, and work with with one. He said the other day, that he was going to work at 4:30 am and there were ppl out there playing the course with headlamps on.... he als osaid that there have been windows supposably boken or damages done by renters out there throwing wildly and without knowledge. He said mainly people are going out there drunk after work and early evening throwing, and he said he knows for a fact they are people who live there tearing things up. But am looking foreward to visiting him or other people I know there to play. BWD...can get you infor you seek thru PM shortly

...can get you infor you seek thru PM shortly



:confused:

residents I know and their apt. numbers

Yeah ashley way to come thru!

BWD...can get you infor you seek thru PM shortly


Ashley,
where yo going to PM me something?

I went to check out Southport's rinky dink course and aced hole 6. It was a whopping 90' hyzer shot. Whatever, it counts in my book as my first ace...pure stoken bro's :)

Nice ace Chad!

I was with family in Charlotte this past weekend and found out there's a new Stan McDaniel course in South Charlotte. It's at Elon Park, on the corner of Park Rd. and Audrey Kell. I haven't seen it yet, but I'll be there next weekend to check it out.

Just an FYI.


Chi

Played the new Elon Park course this past weekend. There's a lot of heavily wooded holes and many ace opps. So far, for a brand new course, it's pretty great. If our new course is anything like this one it will be a great addition to Wilmington. It's probably a par 54.

Also, I heard there was recently a land purchase that will bring another par 70ish course to Charlotte in the near future.

Check out the Pig Jammer (http://vimeo.com/2519793?pg=embed&sec=2519793) at 2 minute 39 second mark

Check out our boy Rory on the promo video too.

Wave here's the photo of that basket sticker I was talking aboot (w/Nate Doss) I'd luv to get a set of these before azalea

Nice shootin at the Winter Jam DP...cashin it up!

Was there a playoff for the final fantasy nine?

Port City had a good showin this weekend. Congrat's to the big winner Chad Parker who led Intermediate wire to wire to win by 6 shots. also big ups to DP, Scott Crouch, Steve Narhood, Christian Coursey and myself for cashing in our respective divisions. The port city was all over the awards ceremony!!

Wow. Nice win Chad.

Great shooting guys. Represent!

Great shootin boys, way to represent. I was wantin to be there with all this great weather. Got 27 holes in Sunday w/ Boz, Fig & Hunt. :D

Good job guys, Good win Chad!
Anyone going to Mookys Cup?? I plan on going if I can arrange some travels.

rore said he might go but i'm not feeling it this year.

Just a heads up excerpt from an email I got from Chuck (aka, homegrown tour) about a problem at Buckhorn. I haven't played it yet but I know some of you guys frequent it:
------

On another note, Jamie "River Dawg" Arnolds, owner of Ramcat Ridge in Yadkinville, was playing some golf at Buckhorn yesterday and someone broke into his car and stole a bunch of discs. Here is what he had to say:
BTW my Suburban was broken into at Buckhorn and two boxes of discs, probably 40+
drivers were taken. Most of them had my name on them and a lot of them were my
dye jobs. Keep your eyes skinned. Only truck in parking lot all day was a
silver toyota cab and a half and only one set of tracks on the course. Could
have been worse. That's all he took. My back passenger glass was down about a
1/2 inch and he just popped the glass off it's track and reached in and unlocked
the door. Wretched scumbag thief!!!

WOW everyone who reads this needs to go to the local head shop, music store, or flaming amy's and pick up a copy of the newest "Bootleg" magazine. it is scene zine for wilmington and has an interview with Faith Colapsing. in this interview is a picture of 1993 Fig. Good stuff for sure!!!!!!

For those that haven't seen my original post, I'm slightly updating the club's scorecard.


-- Thanks to Dave, I had the alternate back 9 added up wrong. I'll have the card back up later today.
I'm an athlete, not a mathlete ;)

for anyone that did not see it, it looks awesome. Monty you won't believe it but we now have room to actually right someones name as opposed to just their initials.

at the request of Mr Bob Fitzsimons (the older gentlemen that initiated contact with us at the parks board meeting we attended last month) i attended the City of Kure Beach's Town council meeting last night. He was asked to give a quick presentation on Disc Golf by the Mayor and the rest of the council. Mr. Firzsimons gave the presentation and i was there to field questions. after a short discussion between bob myself and the mayor and comisssioner the Board voted unanimously to continue with the project. Now we will define the parameters of the area we want to use for the course. Mr. Russle Schwarz has already been in contact with Bob and i am fairly certain he will be the one that comes down and designs the course.

It was great to see the Mayor and the boards excitment about the course. It is my opinion that this thing will be in the ground by christmas if not much much sooner. These guys are on it!!

Its time for another NHDGC Wilmington Sharks fest. Its thirsty thursday tomorrow
which is always a bonus. The third base line bleacher bums will be in formation as well. I'm showing a german IKA kid around Wilmington this week so I'll be there with some co-workers for sure. Hope some of you can make it, post a reply if anyones's going so I can look for ya.

Thanks Dave. I had a solid three days of golf on a great course.

I just upload some video from AM Nats here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfUQ7jofj8Q&feature=channel_page. Check it out.

I finally got my log in woe's worked out, I was starting to get pretty frustrated.
Nice shooting Toomes,cool vid's.

This was just printed and emailed out through SNOWS CUT MAGAZINE...the Pleasure Island Mag.

"Kure Beach wants disc golf

The Kure Beach Town Council voted to proceed with a disc golf course at Joe Eakes Park. You may be wondering how they'll fit it on such a small park. Good question.

The town leases 24 acres from the US Army, but the current park uses only about 6 acres. That leaves 18 acres of woodland that's perfect for disc golf.

They plan an 18 hole tournament-worthy course. One of many cool things about disc golf is that it's inexpensive - about $10,000 and a few weeks of work can is all it takes.

I'm biased, but I this is a great day for Pleasure Island. Disc golf is a great, free activity that many people enjoy.

Disc golf was all set to come to Arrowhead Park in Monkey Junction, but then the dumb ol' economy got in the way. The County Commissioners don't want to borrow any more money to do park improvements until things improve so they're holding off on that one."

Just figured i would post the latest.

Yeaah cool....save a couple extra copies of the mag Ash!

Just wanted to let everyone know about the July Monthly at Luther Britt Park in Lumberton. I am not sure if this is the correct thread to put it in, but I took a shot.

I would like to take a moment to do some "selfless" promotion. On July 25th, the LDGA will be holding our July monthly with a nice twist. We will have a CTP contest on all 18 holes that will last for both rounds. Various prizes, gift certificates, and everyone's favorite, Cash have been donated specifically for this event. As always, we will have the "Green CTP", which is an optional Community CTP as part of our monthly. I know that the New Bern PDGA is this same weekend, but if you aren't playing there, consider making the drive.

We have another event that is upcoming. On August 29th, we will be hosting the 3rd Annual Ace Race sponsored by Discraft. We hold a very competitive event that rewards consistent accuracy. Each hole is shortened considerably and there are plenty of "Ace runs" for all. Each player will be throwing a prototype disc mold that is provided as part of the player's package. With the addition of more sponsorships, we will be able to pay out to the top three finishes.

There is plenty of information about these events on our website. I would strongly encourage you to check it and the LDGA forum.

Unfortunately, due to economic woes, IKA Germany will not be sending kids over this year for the annual summercamp. For those of you who were planning on helping out at the clinic I thank you, and hopefully next year they will be able to come back.

Dave,
Can I get your email. I thought I had it.
Thanks,
Scott Knapp

Just got finished watching the Azalea DVD. Really good DVD especially for $10. I actually kind of liked the raw feel w/o the commentary. I would have been cool if you could have heard the banter between holes a little better. I also would have liked to seen some of the advanced footage, but I'm biased, haha. I know Boz was a one man crew though and I think he did a great job. Nice to have someone in the area with DG filming experience.

Wanted to let everyone know, My band will be playing at Lucky's(across from Long Leaf Mall)on Friday night. We will be playing second from last which means we will take the stage some time between 11:30 and midnight. I hope to see some of you there!

Just wanted to say thank you for the strong showing from Wilmington at our Ace Race Saturday. Congrats to Christian on a second place showing in the Ace Race and to Scuba for win in the doubles afterwards. He and Byrdman had a strong round. I am glad that we were able to put this on and for the support that you send our way. I hope to see you all at the Castle!!!

Got the word last night....Christian Carey Coursey (Triple C) born on 9-8-09, coming in at 8.5 lbs. Mom and baby are fine and Christian is tired. No other details yet although I heard that the kid is already shaving and has a mean elevator putt.

Classic!

I am missing one of my Ace Race Disc that we were tossing around on Saturday after the monthly.If anyone has it or sees it out on the course please return it to me I did not have my name or number on it,but it does have my PDGA number on the top 6802.

Thanks,
Scuba

Russ,
If and when you see this please call me at 279-2458.I want to make sure you have me down for the Ace Race Saturday.I would like to pay cash on Saturday if that's possible.

Scuba

Me thinks DTuck may have done too much celebrating last night.Still awesome that we have a playa in the game though.Shake it off Tuck and get back in the 60's brother.

I wanted to let everyone know that Faith Collapsing will be playing our last show ever Halloween night at Lucky's on College Rd. We will be playing first which means we will start at about 10:15. There will be a costume contest and other festivities including drink specials. I hope to see some of you there!

Nice wins from Wilmington. Congrats Scuba and D-rew Tuck!

Scuba

Hey guys, due to unfortunate dentist bills, and many donations in the support of adult beverages, I'm forced to come to a compromise.

This is pretty much a brand butt-spanking new DisCatcher Sport for sale.

$100 - Cash, Check or Paypal/Credit Card payment will get you this beautiful shiny piece of disc golf equipment.

sold

Is anyone interested in going to the Charleston Classic? Let me know, sounds like two great courses.

Just an FYI. The PDGA has changed how they send and receive "PDGA Official" tests.

I sent in a request yesterday to order an officials test. It was 10 dollars plus almost another 10 in shipping and handling.

I just got a call this morning from them and they said they now email them and recieve them back electronically. Thus, eliminating the shipping and handling charge.

I'm just gearing up to hopefully volunteer for the US womens championship in Jacksonville next year.

Who else is in?

Chi,
Glad you found that out. i took mine online 3 years ago and it only cost me $10.00. The great thing is as long as your membership stays current so does your offcial's status. Good luck buddy and remember it is open book:-)

Early Merry Christmas from me, River, and Crystal:

Does your new pdga card come with a cane?

So, they're planning on burning some of Castle Hayne Park? It looks like a lot of it is disc golf area:
http://www.wect.com/global/story.asp?s=11859955

Cheech,
yeah it is called a controlled burn and they try to do it every year. they did not do it the past 2 years due to the droubt. they will be discussing it at the parks meeting next tuesday that i posted about in the meetings thread. they do it to control the bugs and keep the underbrush thin in the woods surrounding the park. alothough it causes a little grief jsut after the burn it is a good thing.

furthermore i am glad chi brought this up because Dave's tree service has been hired to remove the 2 trees flagged on hole 6 as well as the dead tree at the corner of hole 4 down by the basket. Dave Matteson of the county parks department should have the exact date of when the tree service will be out there. it will be next week sometime. keep your fingers crossed everybody.

Yes Sir, and God do I love to see that Rick Flair Face on the post, it reminds me what a Champion looks like.
To all NHDCG members: I will see you for Azalea Tourni, keep up the great work guys!!

Good lookin out monty. seedlings could work for sure. they might be best raised in a pot at home then once at a little healthier size be transplanted to the course. thanks for the info!! good stuff.

Congartualtions go our to Russell Wilson, Brant Calkin and the whole CDL for getting the Castle Hayne Course a brand spanking new Practice Basket. way to go guys!!!

The county will get a crew to come out and inspect the spot to make sure there are no water/power lines etc. under the ground and then we are a go. FINALLY!!

close to hole 9 on that side of the road?

It will be where we all hang out for lunch during the monthlies (when we are not in the gazzebo) it will be between the bathrooms and the ditch in that groove of pines.

Thanks Dave. We did a ton of work and fundraising to make this happen. We should have it in the ground before the Tourney.

as my buddy scott crouch would say....pretty work boys!!

The new Practice putting basket sleeve was installed yesterday. Thanks out to Greg Davis, Nick Hoffman, Brant Calkin. Dave George, and John Moncreif, for their help in getting this done.
It was a long and tedious process but it is finally here. The final installation will be Monday evening February 22nd at 6 p.m. Come on out for the kickoff. Props out to the Corning Disc League and the New Hanover Disc Golf Club for raising all the funds needed for the purchase of the basket. The Ace Race paid for a chunk of this and the CDL fundraiser discs made up the remainder. Thanks to everyone that contributed.

Oh no. DG's nature boy got knocked the [email protected]#$ out!

damnnnn!!! Thats crazy but a likely story, I have heard from people in charlotte that have history with mr flair crazier stories than this but his daughter getting tazed is just crazy I mean wtf? shes pretty cute but shes a beast dude I mean athletic she probably had the cop in the figure four leg lock! On another note I thought id give a shout at the pcpers that me and gabe steil took down a gaggle of charlotte ams and pros at the second harvest open doubles tourney that took place last weekend at the new course in the crown NEVIN park. Dub towners represent!!! We took first place in the am/am field and was only a few strokes (4-5) from first place in the pros!!! Making our mark quick!!

As I was waisting time at work, surfing the web, I saw the burn schedule for the Castle:

http://www.wwaytv3.com/castle_hayne_park_burn_scheduled/03/2010/

I guess there will be no glow golf that evening!

Nice shooting Gabe and D-Tuck. MOVE UP!

By the way, I used to mow Flair's yard when he lived in Providence Plantation back in 1993 or so. He lived a couple houses down from Mugsy Bogues.

Thanks Chi, here's from the letter I received this morning.

Just received voicemail from Bill Walker with Forest Service and said if weather cooperates they are scheduled to burn this Friday March 5 2010 at Castle Hayne Park.

Mark: They are going to put signage out but we need to close the parks, possibly for the entire day, if we can get the word out.

We apologize for any inconvenience but we are at the mercy of the forest service to make the best judgment call as when to complete the controlled burn.

Does anyone happen to need a roommate for the next month? I'm in-between the end of my apartment lease and closing date on a house. I have a hotel set up, I just thought if someone needs some extra cash this would be a good opportunity. No biggie either way.

Got 3rd at the loriella challenge out of 25ish it was a good course. Hope you guys had a great time in S.C.

Great shooting Roney!! way to represent

I think they look good Chad!

Does anybody want to buy a innova pop up basket or a ten time roc? I got so other discs i really need to sell! I am in some real need of cash i got pleanty of discs to sell

bring em to the monthly tomorrow, you'll probably get some takers.

I put a li'l facelift on our club's website. This was done a while back but I haven't been able to get the content moved over until tonight.

Just don't tell Scott Knapp I was doing work outside of the USWDGC's website! :)

Either way, it's up on a test site.
http://www.newhanoverdgc.com/staging/

If you guys approve of the look, I'll set it live.
Also, if you have any suggestions on additional site features/functionality, let me know!

the only thing i would ask is to make the main picture on the home page a picture actually of the castle and maybe someone with a little better form. Other than that the changes look good.

Done and thanks Dave.

We're live with the updates!
http://www.newhanoverdgc.com

Our club website poster boys thus far are Mr. Rudy and the one and only Rory.

looks great Chad, that personalized it and made a big difference.

Scoobs,

Congrats on the W in Lumberton!

Interesting articles in today's PDGA Newsletter if you haven't already read it. Amongst the three North Carolina articles is: New disc golf course to help with yard waste. The entire article is linked back to Wilmington's WECT news site and mentions a 14-hole course that will host National tournaments in the Spring and Fall to put people in area hotels. Interesting, eh?

From the DGRus site:
2010 Ace Race disc: The 2010 Ace Race prototype is a fast, overstable midrange. It has good speed for a mid, longer glide than you'll expect, and a medium strong
finish. When you turn it over it will always come back unless you
really torque it. Will hold a line in a moderate to strong headwind.
We are looking forward to hearing the chains you ring with it!

(the link is on the right)

Coming soon: shared events from other regional clubs. I hope!

check out the link. the thread is in the courses section of this discussion board. Mr. Vince Whorley played out course while in the area and had a few goods things to say. great review and coming from Vince it realy meant alot. i am stoked he took the time to give us such props. i am so proud of the hard work that the Core of the New Hanover Disc Golf Club puts into that course. makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.

I just put what humble photos I shot of the Ace Race up on our club's website. While I was at it, I updated the photo slideshow to support galleries.

All this and more found only on your favorite disc golf club's website, newhanoverdgc.com (http://www.newhanoverdgc.com)!

I like that feature Chad, I'll organize some photos from our past road trips and make them available to you so we can have more albums.

I didn't realize how big my *** was!!! I plan on selling advertising space if I ever turn PRO... I am thinking I can charge by the "CHEEK".

Of course I'm Kidding... Most excellent photos my friend. See u knuckleheds this weekend at your Monthly. I have to Babysit Worm again so I'll have him too.

Trig (What is the Number to Jenny Craig again?) out

Just remember the camera adds 10 pounds :)

Moncropolis, that'd be perfect!

I wanted to add a few thoughts here on the club and what it's meant to me over the past year.

Anybody that's played a few rounds with me know that I've been unemployed for quite a while. Few know how much this game has helped me through this strange time and I owe a great deal to everybody involved at the Castle for supporting and organizing such a great experience to be part of.

As of Monday afternoon I'm anticipating a job offer in Annapolis, MD. Now I'm trying to sell my house and relocate with enough time to settle in before my wife and I expect our first child.

Disc golf has become my outlet to forget the hard times and just have fun. This club has been extraordinary as far as accepting novice players like myself and teaching me along the way. I will always remember the Castle as the course that taught me how to play and I will make return trips as much as possible.

Thanks for the kind words Joey D. I hope you've enjoyed the monthlies we've put on and thanks for all your support as well.

well I'm back from Michigan and played 7 courses in 6 days. Wave that's a total of 61 for me now, so I've made up some ground on you. Whose gonna get to 70 first? Anyway I played:

Brighton High School - 9 holes
Black Locust in Milford - 27 holes
Bandemer Park in Ann Arbor - 9 holes 3 sets of tees
Independence Lake in Whitmore Lake - 18 holes
Lakeshore in Ypsilanti - 28 holes
Hudson Mills in Dexter Original - 24 holes
Hudson Mills Monster - 24 holes

Great courses and parks, they take their disc golf seriously up there, can't wait to go back.


When my bro picked me up he said OC's was closed...that kinda sucks!

Ha ha. Glad you made it back safely Montty!! we had a few beers at Carolina Ale House last week and it seems like a perfect substitute. i am not even sure if it is any farther of a drive for you:-)

I almost went and played the heom grown on sunday at Higher Ground but i was too tired from lumberton that i did not make it. that would have been course number 70. but alas for now i chill at 69 courses. lets get up drink some beers and talk about your second trip to Michigan this week. you bet cha.

The new course in Charlotte, Eastway Park, is on the front page of the pdga website right now. Drew Tuck and I passed through Charlotte on the way back from Hickory last weekend and played it. It's pretty wide open, long, and beautiful. Stan, his wife, and R Kelly were digging out the tee-box forms while we played.

They were about to begin hole 12 when we passed through. We decided to give them a hand. About an hour later we had the hard ground dug out and the form placed, ready for concrete.

They mentioned putting The New Hanover Disc Golf Club on the sign to thank us for helping them out. I think that would be pretty cool. Especially since I saw several Charlotte club members walk right by them as they worked.

It was me, Drew Tuck, D-Tuck, and Brad Tuck that helped them out. I hope our name actually gets put on the sign..Pretty cool of them.

I'll be heading that way soon and will take a pic if it really happens.

Anyways, just a heads up.

Happy Thanksgiving. Hope to see some of you in Charlotte. If not, have a great time with family or friends or even if you're hanging out by yourself. Sometimes that's my favorite time. Don't look into that too far...

See you soon!

So, as I was driving to my Grandfather's house for Thanksgiving, I heard a random Sarah Stanhope interview on Myrtle Beach's NPR station. My family was wondering why I drove up, but hung out in my car for 15 minutes still listening to the radio!

I found the link to the interview here. Her interview starts at about 16 minutes into the program.

Be careful. Clay Stone know how to deuce hole 16. "They're all lefty holes."

The New Hanover County Parks Department has Closed the park this week due to the snow on monday. as of right now the park is still closed. the parks department is going to meet out at the park tomorrow morning to make the call to open the park or keep it closed again saturday.
I am hoping like hell that they open the park up and of course i will contact everyone as soon as i hear from them. so please keep your fingers crossed and fill free to hit me up with questions if anyone has any.

we are on for today. the parks department is opening the park. i hope to see everyone there and we tee at 10:00

Yeah and the long tees are called the Full Monty.

I went up to GOPC today to look for some shoes and ended up getting some Salomons for half price. They had about 5-6 varieties half price on the display wall and maybe 2-3 more on the floor including some Merrels. Just thought I would share.

Took the camera to the ribbon cutting of the new Kure Beach course and managed to capture a couple of our boys there.

From the county Parks Dept. Info. released today.

Good afternoon. I have spoken with several of you in the past couple of weeks and thought it might be helpful to send out an e-mail to share information with all of you. We continue to make steady progress on the Arrowhead project. At this point we are putting the final touches on the park design and preparing for the bidding process. We hit a small glitch with water/sewer but believe we have that worked out and will be able to bid the project in the next week or two. I will send you all a note with the bid opening date as soon as it is established. We generally put things out to bid for about a month to give contractors ample time to provide us solid bids. I know waiting has been painstaking but we truly are getting there. Thank you to all of you who have been helping us be our eyes and ears in the neighborhood in assisting us in cutting down on the ATV�s and vandalism, your efforts are much appreciated.

It is with great sadness to report that the NHDGC and our community lost an original Club member and friend. Renee Goings made her transition due to a sudden and unexpected illness this week. Chris Goings is her husband and although some of you may not have known them, they were helpful in the early days of our Club. I'll have information at our scheduled Monthly competition tomorrow of her services.

Big ups to Mr.Doubles John Moncrief for taking home the Win or Swim victory this weekend.Great playing Bro!!
