WOHOO!!

How can you not love this tournament?

And I am sure there will be cake and ice cream again :)

Cant wait Joe!

Another great eastern North Carolina tournament. Wish I could develop a sidearm before then but not likely. I'm in.

Ah, sidearm heaven. Maybe I can finally make it to this one this year. Can't wait.

I also look forward to this one. Heard great things about Kinston. I'll be there with bells on, SILVER bells!!!

Ah, sidearm heaven. Maybe I can finally make it to this one this year. Can't wait.



Sidearm heaven? I don't throw a single one there....hmmm... :D

me neither, unless I am in whole loTTa trouble.

...well, I've sidearmed the entire front 9 before & come out under par! Its at least MY sidearm heaven. I've thrown 13 off the tee in one round before. Probably won't do that this year but probably at least 9.

13 off the tee???

WOW

What holes did you not? I'm guessing.....2, 3, 10, 17, 18?

cant make it Joe :( I will be on the road that weekend!

I think I actually threw a flick roller on 6 and then I threw backhand on 10, 11? (shouldn't have), 13, 14, 18.

With your sidearm, I would defintely be flicking 11...

Hey Hofmann, how about a sidearm clinic for me sometime?
I need to learn how to flick something other than firebirds.

Joe, we can work that out sometime. Gotta trust that hzyer angle and know your disc. I definitely throw sidearm on 11 just decided not too that day, probably lots of headwind. Looking forward to my first Kings Cup!

You can flick #2 if you want. #10 is a fun flickroller if it's not windy(just don't hit the posts on the right!). #11-all day. #13 is a hole you need to flick 2F's. Turn one up and let it coast an S up the fairway...beautiful when done right :) and you're the man at that shot ;) #18 lines up for a roller, but you got to be on point. I love this course and agree there are some nice sidearm holes. 'Bout 7-8 for me...plus a mandatory flickroller! Hope to make this one.
One

Sorry, Hofmann. :o:confused: 1f2n's School work has fried me! My bad...

It will be good to finally have you and I look forward to the tutorial. You are definetly an ultra smooth and accurate sidearm thrower. I didn't know you were out at Marshall Street this year until I was watching the video last night. Sweet event, I gotta get out there.

I hear ya Joe, just don't go this year (http://www.pdga.com/schedule/event.php?TournID=7386) :D

It def won't be this year. Trying to save up for Am worlds! :D

my tournament is a great way to practice for am worlds - playing a round at a course and then driving somewhere totally different and playing again.

Tell JJ that this year he has got to be there. He almost made it last year and had to change plans. I would love to have him out.

we shall see - he is working a lot and going to school full time, so he doesn't have a lot of free time.

I will try. He shot a bogey free 49 the first and only time he played the course.

That is rediculous!

Not ridiculous, just Jernigan.

yeah it was the Robert Wynne Memorial.

We started on hole 1.

Here was his scorecard through 11 holes....

333333333333

Then 13 - 18
222322

He was mad when we finished b/c he only shot 49....lol

we shall see - he is working a lot and going to school full time, so he doesn't have a lot of free time.




And? Does he have a kid? I see him on XBox Live so I know he has free time :) Silly excuses for not coming. Tell him he has to come or I will have to lay the smack down on him in Call of Duty 4.

Looks like a pro calling out a pro?

Hole six is on the RISE.... :D

HUH ???????

RISE?!... you elevating 'Skinny'?

Yes sir.....right now it is out of play. We are having to do it manually. They couldn't dump the dirt on the mound because they couldn't get the truck back there. So we are move it shovel style. :D

you tried to get a truck through there? I can't even get a disc through there.

when i eat a big breakfast i have to walk down it sideways

: ) :

At the gap from fives pin to sixes pin not down the fairway. You can't get a bicycle down the fairway...

If you don't shave that beard of yours, you won't make it down the fairway big breakfast or not. :D

Enjoy Joe, fun years to come

Mini THumber

The King's Cup has been sent off for polishing and registrations are starting to come in, will Schweb be able to hold on to the enormous trophy? Will anyone set a new course record?

We'll be there soon Joe, gotta go play in some flowers in Wilmington first, and eat some wings at Hooters. Then we can be KING.

Mini Thumber, a kinda good rec playing bagger

I am looking forward to both the Azalea and the King's Cup two awesome Harold Duval specials! :D Hopefully there will be another one breaking some ground in Kinston in the near future. Crosstown baby!

Innova Crew coming to Kinston to look at some property on Tuesday......keep your fingers crossed. :D

Awesome Joe, hope it happens for you and the club. We are also eagerly anticipating the next meeting for Arrowhead Park here in the port city.

Yeah man, it is an exciting time for disc golf in eastern NC! Good luck to you guys too! See you this weekend.

I'm thinking about making the journy down to Kinston for this. I just have to see how things go.

It might be painful, but, what thier to think about. It's not a matter of going, its what time and how early do we show up. If you have never been to the Kings Cup, let me save you some pain, :o. GO :D Now, do you need help with anything else :)
\
Mini Thumber, a pretty good, ah hell, Just Pretty ;)

Hope you can make it, I am quite sure you will enjoy it. Let me know if you need anything or have questions.

Excited to head down east for the King's Cup.
Well run event on a great course
see Everyone there

Yeah i have played a tourny down in Kinston before. It just wasn't a King's cup.

I am about 90% sure that I will come to this. I just need to work out a few things.

Good to hear!

For the last two days, I have learned somre really cool stuff from Russell Schwarz. In addition to looking at the property that will very likely be our next course in Kinston. I learned some stuff about The Barnet Park course. For example.....2 long is actually 2 short the blue pad was never poured. If poured, it would stretch the hole to over 600 feet. However, it may be and soon! Hole 7's pin was intended to be across the creek out near 10's alt pin. It also may be developed to its design soon. Hole 15 long has never been poured but will be soon! A mando at the turn or 4 was requested to keep the hole from being played "through the back door". That will likely happen too. Russell is a great guy to learn from and is super to work with. I am looking forward to a few "changes" at Barnet and the future course that will also be beautiful and challenging.

A mando at the turn or 4 was requested to keep the hole from being played "through the back door".



good

Hole 2 is gonnna be sweet if we get it worked out!

I'd also like to see a short tee on 4. A nice straight shot through the gap - would be a sweet little hole that would fit the short tees nicely.

:oThat would close my secret Thumber Hole :mad:

Mini Thumber

it's not a secreTT

But it was almost a secret, You ,Joe, and I have birdied that with a Thumber. Can I get an Amen.

Old News, gettin ready to go play in the flowers

Mini Thumber

it's not a secreTT



true dat

But it was almost a secret, You ,Joe, and I have birdied that with a Thumber. Can I get an Amen.





I birdie that hole all the time. After all, it is a par 4.

A mando at the turn or 4 was requested to keep the hole from being played "through the back door".



good



MTL is just jealous :)
I really would not call it a back door, more like a crack in the wall lol. If you put a mando, just put it about 30-60 feet off the tee. That way it stops the shortcut, but it is close enough that there are no "iffy" calls as to whether or not the mando was made.

Questions: If 2 was made longer and 7 was extended, would there also be bridges made to make the walk shorter (mainly on 7 since I do not want to walk all the way to 9's fairway to cross)? Also, would those creeks still be OB forcing the decisions (especially on 7) to either go for it or play short then get across the creek? Just some questions, not complaints. I will play whatever layout a TD or course designer throws at me.

haha

IMHO, mandos are to be used to play a hole the way it was originally designed to be played.

Course designers can't help if a gap opens 20 years after they design a course and then mandos are good.

Also mandos are good for safety to prevent ppl from throwing over other park areas.

However, a mando just to make a hole more difficult is pointless.

Bridges will be inistalled if the provisions are made for 2 and 7. I think we would treat the water just as we do on 9 if you are betweent he strings you are out. Although it will come in to play a both locations, Russell said that He and Harold wanted to have players choose their shot. Placement safe and then cross over to the pin on 7 or try the big anhyzer. You obviously won't reach 2 and you had better play the smart line to put yourself in the alley for an upshot. We are talking a new hole on 2 with the long pad placement. As far a mando on 4, I just can't put it there if it is going to cause people to stuggle to make the call. Again, nothing has been set in stone with these three areas of discussion. We have some details to work out and we are working on them. I just wanted to inform fans of the Kinston course of some of the exciting things taking place. So to continue.....we are placing a hole 19 in front of our tournament shelter. We will have a very nice Kiosk built by the first of May.

We are installing new chains on all 18, again. Our last batch had a defect and are being replaced. We will also be correcting the height error on 4's pin by placing a new pole. Oh, did I mention we will be have tons of workdays???

cool stuff Joe... for the tourney do you play all long pad to orig baskets (like last year) or long & short?

looking forward to it Joe!!!

Joe,

how far back are we talking on hole 2?

: ) :

cool stuff Joe... for the tourney do you play all long pad to orig baskets (like last year) or long & short?



Long layout (Championship layout) original pin positions

Joe,

how far back are we talking on hole 2?

: ) :



The hole will end up around the 600 ft mark give or take according to the location that Russell and Harold want the tee pad.

However, a mando just to make a hole more difficult is pointless.



I disagree.

Most of the time that is exactly why a mando is put on a hole.

I'm not saying the list you mentioned are not valid reasons, I actually agree with most of those that you listed.

However, I would not say mandos that are put in place to make a hole tougher are pointless??? No way.

I'm trying to think of a mando that was in place that wasn't for safety / original course reasons...

let me think....

(long pause)

Number 8 in Jacksonville comes to mind. There is no other shot to the green than the hyzer - that really doesn't help anything.

Number 6 there too is bad, but it is for safety of number 5.

Um....

thats all I got right now.

what about #2 a the Payne? No safety issues there. Dont say its because of hole threes tee pad, the hole is toooooo short to call that. Most are throwing putters (even the lefty)

What about #7 at Wellspring? No safety issues there.

what about #2 a the Payne?


good call, peeps used to throw overhands to the left

Holes 3 and 9 at old Casheville, the double mando at Fossil Hill.

The mando's on our course are for the purposes of playing as intended by the course designer. I think that is most often and the best reason for having one.

2 is to make people play the hole correct.

7 at wellspring is dumb!! There is no other way to get to the pin. Honestly, if someone wants to throw a miracle shot through the woods, be my guest.

I just don't like that mando one bit and I've never missed it either!

Obviously you never played the Web because it's littered with Mandos

I have, actually.

Just not enough to remember most of them - except the one on 5 I missed :D

wow I wasn't even think of that hole but 3 and 16 are hidden in the woods to stop corner cutting

I need to get back to Kinston haven't played there since 01, I guess it's changed a little

7 at wellspring is dumb!! There is no other way to get to the pin.



Seriously?? Come on man...other people play this game other than "righties".

If anything the mando makes it even more righty friendly as I they can just throw way past the mando high and let it naturally hyzer out and get a putt (what I do).

I would think lefties would miss it more b/c they cut it too close.

I need to get back to Kinston haven't played there since 01, I guess it's changed a little



Yes you do and yes it has.....you will love it....

Paypal is up and registrations are coming in....

Hey Scotty are you doing a CP points chase this year? I should be off to a good start.

Yes there will be a CPPS this year. I will have the site updated after exams are done so expect it to be updated after May 5. The awards will be at Kings Cup, providing luck will have me at my first event in 2008.

Thanks Scott it was good seeing you this weekend, hope you and your family had a good time while you were here.

we need to keep this thread near the top...All NC golfers should experience one of the best courses in the state. there will be a NEW course record this year. Who is going to hit 46 now? My guess is that no one will shoot better then 48 (this means you Schwebbbbbbbbaby). I just want to shoot 54....

Hole 2 is going to be super sweet!!!

We are near completion on the Hole 6 renovation, should be sweet. You will all have a part in it, that is all I can say for now. Hole 2 is presently in negotioation with a big time landowner. We feel confident that the hole 2 renovation will take place. We are just waiting on the landowner to say go ahead. When he does, we will be busting butt to get it ready for everyone to enjoy.

Good things on the way, now go register and make my life easier! I have enough "extra" work to do with course issues.

Brand Spankin' new practice basket installed today, looks sweet out in front of the shelter. Stil waiting on the word for hole two but the area on both sides are cleared. This hole will be one of the toughest and coolest in the state.

Thanks Myers, I think the course will be a little tougher this year with two, six, and fifteen......we hope to have all of them ready. If so, it will be a little different for sure. Keep those registrations coming!

Is anyone camping? Where is everyone going to be?

Got space at my house Doc if you dont mind the 50 minute commute.

Is anyone camping? Where is everyone going to be?



I'll be camping...At Neuseway Nature Park (http://www.neusewaypark.com/campground.html)

I may be up there tomorrow afternoon for a practice session...
And this may be on here somewhere, but what are the changes to the course?

"Got space at my house Doc if you dont mind the 50 minute commute"

Thanks Schwebby, that may be an option. The Neuseway Nature Park is VERY close to the course and would be a GREAT camp location. So if enough folks do the tent thing, thats my first choice. Thanks for that info Rore, and Joe, the 100 man shelter there would make a great location for the players partee.
Just a thot.

I'll get the official course changes up after we deal with a couple of working issues. I don't want to say something is in if it isn't finished.

If you're thinking about camping, please contact Bobby Cox at the Neuseway Nature Center (http://www.neusewaypark.com) for a "very special King's Cup III rate". (252) 939-3367.

Hey Rock, My Grandmother isn't expected to live but a few days longer, so I may have to shoot out of town. I don't want to pre-register and lose my money. Bad Timing. :(

I barley fit down the fairway, and now you're gonna make me climb a hill if I ever make the putt....Sweet.



No worries Rocky! We're putting in a ski lift on the back side of the mountain. It's a nice ride down to the tee for #7. And the view is just spectacular. On a clear day, you can see the beach! ( Heard there's a cookie jar on top, too.)

See you soon!

I would think a big uphill putt would suite your thumber jump putt very nicely! ;)

Thanks for the 411 Joe, if there is a cookie up there,Ill find a way. Whats the weight limit on the lift?...and Snapp, it's thumberjumpbirdyputt. It's one of those you tube things, quite a sight. Tried it at Richlands, not very successful, but fun..

Scratch that trip to Kinston today. I thought it wasn't going to rain until later in the day.

30 tons more dirt going in on hole 6......can you make an uphill putt?




About how tall is Mt. Noble gonna be now?



At the moment, the mound at its peak is about 7 feet high. It will seem much higher with the pin in place and a thirty five foot putt

Mount Noble, now that's funny rite der, i dont care who you is, thats funny stuff rite der.

Maybe The Great outdoors will sponsor a trip down the Big Skinny, and up Mt Noble, lunch and cookie provided.

Mini Thumber, a Pretty good Rec player, and part time Hill Climber :eek:

BIG workday on Saturday starting @ 8am. We are going to pour some pads and hopefully build a bridge or two. Six will go in the ground and the Kiosk will be finished.

They should be in Dave. We will get things updated today.
We had some numbers crossed up as some players had registered but had not yet payed. 2 and 15 poured yesterday and things are leaning toward 2 being in play, Big shout out to MAX and MIKE NORRIS for working thier tales off from 8am to 8 pm.

Good Job Wing and Micro Dot, and Kinston Crew. Starting to sound like the course will be like a new/Improved version. Is there still a route through hole 4...LOL

Mini Thumber, A pretty good Rec player, Cool Vanilla Hemi Time T-143hrs

Wow, thats a lot of tail to work off so I know that they must have done some serious work. Major props to all of those who have helped out. I can not wait to see the course.

Don't forget your mom's today :)

FYI Rory's pdga number is wrong on the pre-reg.

26809...And thank you DG for taking care of that.

What is the course record?, The Pro is coming in hot, and bustin up chains, records,baskets, The Pro is mission Oriented :eek: :eek: :)

46

46

sounds about right

HMMM.... ;)

Yeah that 46 looked about right too. I can say that was one of my favorite rounds, to get a chance to watch that being shot was awesome.

That may be in Jeopardy as hot as the Pro is recently. Just my guess

Mini Thumber, working 5 days till play

It appears that we have successfully gained access to the questionalble land on hole 2 blue. I will be out finishing clearing out debris today and tuesday. It will be a fun and challenging hole.

Almost full several people with checks in the mail....85 posted and more to be posted today

It appears that we have successfully gained access to the questionalble land on hole 2 blue. I will be out finishing clearing out debris today and tuesday. It will be a fun and challenging hole.


with Hole 2's new tee pad it will add at least 1 stroke to the fields card which will in turn make a 46 this year even that much more of an accomplishment. HoTT shooting this weekend Schwebb!!!!!!!!

What did they do to hole 2 and 18. Am I automaticly adding another bogey :(

hole 2 has been extended about 200 feet, across 2 ditches.

hole 6 has had the mound raised.

hole 15 has had the long teepad concreted.

: ) :

6 will play a little tougher and 15 might be a half of a stroke tougher from the longs......a 46 would be rediculous, but possible, I think????

HEY ROCK!!!
Can we get a countdown please?

Nice shooting last weekend Schwebbbbbbbby...
Keep it up and keep knockin' em down...

Thanks everybody, looking forward to 4 rounds of BarneTT Longs.

Making hole 2 200ft longer, yep, better eat an extra cookie. Christian, extra cookie please.

Mini Thumber, Cool Vanilla Hemi Time, T-105hrs till ...TTTTTTWWWWWWWW0000000000OOO minutes :)

Oatmeal Raisin or Chocolate Chip? I've got great recipes for both ;)

Why Chockolate chip. Thanks Bert

Hole 2 is looking sweet, a few thing left to do. Officially measured today with the wheel and it is 670 from the blue. Hole 15 from the blue adds 65 feet and a little anhyzer measuring 267 uphill. 6 hasn't moved in length but it is a little higher. Wait list is up!!!

I will be out there with CliZZark Thursday morning around 9:30

Crap, now I'm gonna neeed to eat 3 more cookies. Ok superman, enough on the length. Are all divisions playing 4 rounds from the longs?

Mini Thumber, still a pretty good rec player

Yes sir ;)

To get you warmed up, Austin Sult is running pro/am random doubles Friday afternoon. It will be from the Long Tees, so tee time is 5:45pm sharp. Be there by 5:30 to sign up, or call and let us know you're right around the corner. Sign in with Austin at the kiosk (by hole 1). Get your King's Cup III weekend off to great start and see the new features, too. Don't miss it.

Hey, Bert.

Are the oatmeal cookies fluffy and chewy or flat and crispy? Just curious. And do you use raisins or dates?

hmmm might have to take off early and go play some doubles.

Soon, very soon. We get to play 68 holes of Disc Golf. Look out Big Skinny, Mini Thumber comming to widen ya.... :mad:

Mini THumber, Cool Vanilla Hemi Time, T-75hrs :)

More chewy, not flat and crispy. About 3/4" thick. Cinnamon w/ a touch of nutmeg. I love raisins, but you can toss in some dates. MMMM!!

I just left work and went to grab a bag of chips ahoy..

68 Holes? are you not going to finish rocky or is your numberin just not that good? :D

72 holes to have a chance at some prizes

68 disc golf holes
Hole 6 4 times.

:D

No Wave, Math working somewhat good. I am gonna play 68, Hole 8 I will just try to survive with the least amount of strokes I can get off the hole with. Not exactly a Thumber shot, LOL

Mini Thumber : :(

I'm trying to think of a whole that is exactly a thumber shot.

Nope.

Can't think of one.

Thats correct right, isn't hole 8 the one that has the OB creek downhil just 60" off the pad, with the criss cross tees in front.

That is nine Rocky

Thanks, Right 9, that is a tough hole, I close my eyes, pray,grip and Bam. then I turnaround and ask the group, Did anybody see where that went? ...LOL

The rest, I can at least get a thumber off somewhat, right Joe? :D

yep

easy hole. jump putt down the fairway to the edge of the ditch thumber under the basket tapp in for 3 c'mon rock they are all thumber holes :D

That precisley is the only way I have ever taken a 3 on it. The jump wasn't very high, but the roll, priceless... :eek:

Just under 48hrs, and 2 more days of work. Then we get to play. Look out Big Skinny, I'ma Cummin

Mini THumber, and not a bad rec player

Check your e-mail for information on a players party at the San Juan Mexican Resteraunt Saturday night at 7:30

to bump this thing up, a question. for the new tee on hole 2 you have to throw over 2 ditches and and island that is created by the 2 ditches. so if you come up short or hit an early tree, what do you do? i am assuming the dtches are o.b. but if you manage to somehow land on the island is there now a bridge to that piece of land? i know there was talk of installing one. i have seen the proposed hole but have not been back since the clearing has comenced. can't wait to play the new monster! thanks for any input.

The two ditches that form the island areas are lined with string as is 9. These are the only ditches that require a player to throw their shot across them. Two fourteen foot bridges connect the fairway to allow access to the island. The two ditches will allow players that "may" land in OB to move progressively through, playing per rule..the last place in bounds. If there is doubt about clearing both ditches, players may chose to lay up on the island as it is mowed down and open the width of the new gate. Good question!

thanks for the info. joe!! can't wait to see it

UH scuse me, have I played this course before. I know my Ginkaloba may be wearing off, but I'm not aware of any ditches on hole 2. Slow 330ft anhyzer. What did I miss.

Mini THumber :confused:

What you talking bout Joe? :D :cool:/msgboard/images/graemlins/ooo.gif :p ;)

Hole 2 now has a long pad. Harold Duval And Russel had in the original plans for the course a longer pad for two but couldn't get access to the property. We now have access to the property and it will be in play.

and it is going to be crucial !!! can't wait to see it joe!

I stopped in Kinston today on the way to Raleigh from Wilmington and played the course for the first time. The course is in great shape. The Fairways are nice and clean, but man it is punishing when you get off the fairway. Hole 2 is a tough 3 with the pad that far back. I'd be happy with a 4 every round. Mt. Noble on hole 6 is looking good too. I was eye level with the bottom of the pole. My only gripe with the course is the crazy amount of ants. Everything else was looking great though. Nice work Joe and everyone else that has helped out. Can't wait to play this weekend.

Thanks Toomes! Yeah the course has some carpenter ants and they have really grown in number. They have always been on 15 but there are more than ever. Parks is looking for a solution as they don't get treated with the same insecticide as do fire ants. They really don't sting or bite, especially when compared to fire ants. Sorry that they couldn't be addressed before this weekend.

:eek:, looks like Ill have to fight hard to keep it in the low 70s.

Mini Thumber, still a Rec player
Cool Vanilla Hemi Time T-32hrs

I would say hole 2 is a Par 5 now ....it looks great out there

It's not a big deal Joe. I saw most the ants after I crossed the road to hole 11. Plus, it was partly my fault because my disc wasn't always in the ideal spot.

Rocky, you'll be in the 60's every round and bag another Rec title.

I would say hole 2 is a Par 5 now ..




I agree!

Good luck getting rid of ants at Barnet Park. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif Hole 2 is buttersweet, quite a challenge. All the hard work everyone has done is evident in the course. Can't wait to play!!! :D

Didn't think that you would have two's long pad in play for the tourney, can't wait to see the throws from there!!!

Joe....what time should I be in K-town?

I would say hole 2 is a Par 5 now ..




I agree!



Good, cause I took a 5 on it. I feel like a 3 is definitely possible with a good drive. That's risky business going for it though.

ALL PLAYERS

Mus, Do you want to be the spotter for 2 on Saturday? I can make it happen. If you can come out around 8 or 8:30 we could use you.

Oh yea LOOOng 2 is great!

Thanks Jay, we are looking forward to this weekend! It will be good to have you around :D

Toomes, "bag another Rec title", check registration.

Hole 2 a par 5, okay, that translates to a 6 for normal players. Oh boy, extra cookies honey.
