awesome, congrats guys. i actually know all of them, or have at least met and spoke with them. except "Boo". it's good to hear names you know come out on top. sorry i couldn't make it though. i'll see you guys soon enough.

good job 3rd coast. you guys still have work to do to make these events even better. example post payouts, mark drop zones, ensure all rules are clearly stated on where OB begins. (road or posts) score card on back said public roads. so there was confusion on that as well as the little parking lot on the right side of hole a.

The last minute nature of the event has alot to do with it plus the holidays kept alot of us busy. We had some technical difficulties with missing a printer cable. AM payout was a nightmare but we are learning.

Just stay away from the road and you will be OK. :p

Hey third coasters, when is the big Victoria tourney? Seems like it is always the first good tourney on the schedule.

mccaine donkey. :o last year team justice ran Vic and it is usually the 1st or 2nd weekend in Feb

I discussed the gravel parking lot, hole 11 and a hole during players meeting. Either you didnt listen or you werent there. Gravel road and pylons were discussed and we even had a couple of questions...
Vic open is third weekend of Feb, it used to be the 2nd, but it was juggled around last year cause of a mace man event.

i was there and I was not the only one confused.

I think this is fairly accurate.

Victoria Open February 19-20 2005. Tommy Isenberg/Billy Nelson
Victoria Open February 18-19 2006. Chris Himing/Billy Nelson
Victoria Open February 17-18 2007. Rick Danger
Victoria Open February 23-24 2008. Team Justice


I missed the players meeting. Had zero OB, no fives and only two birdies for the day. I think I beat three Pros while winning INT. Weenie arms are not that bad.

:p

So, who's running it in 2009?

Pretty sure it is Riverside Disc golf this year. I'd call Wallace and check but he doesn't answer his phone. EVER.

Gatorboy?

I thought that Mark ran it twice ('02 & '03)
I can't find anything documented before 2001

2001 - Feb 24-25 - Don Wilchek
2002 - Feb 23-24 - ???
2003 - Feb 22-23 - Mark Atwood
2004 - Feb 21-22 - Chris Himing

Rudy Martinez ran it in 2000. It was the year that CE plastic came out and Himing was there and threw a CE Valkyrie into the concrete floor of the pavilon then passed it around showing how it had not 'tacoed'. After that, those puppies went like hot cakes for $15.

It was also my first sanctioned tournament. I believe Mark ran it in 2002 also, because I did not play it in 2001, but played VIC then when Mark came out with his stamp of evolution for disc golf.

all this talk about who ran it, who's running it... man, i can't wait!!! yall are getting me all excited!!

Atwood ran it in 2003, but not 2002. Maybe it didn't happen in 2002? There is no listing for it on the PDGA Schedule history.

My, aren't we all getting nostalgic. ;)

I remember back in the nineties, Houck ran a tourney there and on the weekend, there were a lot of cars driving by with loud music. :D

Actually James, we're working on our New Year's resolution to help all the old players in their fight against Alzheimer's.

You're Welcome. :)

Yeah! PDGA discussion is allowing new members again. I said "You'll allow KrazyEye but not ME???" and they went, "you're right, but if you know KrazyEye we're giving you a short leash."

That was pretty good Hans.

So is Third Coast stepping up to run the Victoria Open this year??
