In!

N

Jeez guys, I'm in too, and actually registered for 2010, & 2011. Take that beoches!

i wasn't going to start posting this because it jsut sounds like you are trying to get people to register but...
you better get in where you fit in while you can. we are OVER half full in 2 days.

and multiple locals not in yet as well

we always fill but this seems faster than years past. i guess the word is out quality Course + quality Club = a tourney u don't want to miss. Send money or i will put you in the junior girls under 13 list (that's is where i will start the waiting list)

another update...Holy Cow we have 8 men in the Pro Masters division. That is HUGE

not just saying this because i'm local.
this was my first tourney in 08' and the best run event i've been to.
castle is awesome and will be in the best shape ever. three, possibly four tuck brothers will be in attendance and if you miss it too bad. i waited a little last year and barely made it on the waiting list.

heres to the dub town classic AKA Azalea
by the way beach is 5 minutes away

another update...Holy Cow we have 8 men in the Pro Masters division. That is HUGE



I'm in.... at least 9 now...that is enourmous.

good one tiny e

: ) :

Man that masters field is Huuugggeee....... it's just big that's all i'm sayin

Well assuming 36 people didnt sign up ahead of me since yesterday. Im in. This tourney is filling way to quickly. I thought a month ahead was sick a couple years ago. This may be 2

last year we filled 32 prior to the event. i am pretty sure we will blow that away this year. i am lovin all the reg's and stoked to see you in Vee!!

Yeah yall will. That shows what a great course and great club can do.

Will there be onsite meals again this year?

I heard Boz will be there with a big bag of trail mix,...so you got that going for you, at least.

Will there be onsite meals again this year?


all the information is on the
flyer (http://www.newhanoverdgc.com/Azalea-Flyer.pdf) and yes

The Mini Thumber, might be bringing some Beef Jerky for ctp's.

Hey Rocky, in case i suck and cant win any, you shoudl bring me a bag, that is some of the best jerky ive ever had.

The Mini Thumber, might be bringing some Beef Jerky for ctp's.


We'd love to have some!

took 10 lbs to a traleigh tnmt. Sesame, and Pepper. Some liked it. Put a 7oz bag as ctp on every hole. Was kinda cool

it was very good

Thanks Vee

Yea Rock, I won a bag of your jerky...top notch man, top notch!

It was fun sharing, and not the usual CTP, if ju know what I mean. Something different :D

Paypal sent last night. Yeah Rocky the Jerky was great!

o.k. guys here is where we are at and what is going to go down. we have 5 spots left after today's entries. So here is how we will proceed. for the last 5 spots the first to go in will be any reg's recieved in today's mail. after that will be Paypal's recieved from 12:30 today thru midnight tonight in the oroder recieved. after that we will do Mail Tuesday then paypal tuesday as of Midnight so forth and so on till the last 5 spots are taken. then the wait list will begin.

once the tournament is full we will take down the paypal on the website and anyone wishing to get on the wait list can post on the disscussion board, e-mail or call me. good luck to the last 5.

Hey Dave I hear Joe Nobel is playing......awesome to have this bad boy almost full this early. Great job New Hanover!

Joe Noble is in the event. if you see Austin please remind him that registration closes at 8:45 :D no i am just joking (and if you do see him tell him i will check my voice mail this year before i close registration /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif)

it is hectic right now with my cell text and e-mail blowin up left and right but you are correct it makes it real nice as the event approaches!!

Thier will be 4 Geist's in this event. Family Fued, oh yeah

Couple things I would like to say:
1st) I'm looking forward to trying some of Rocky's World Famous Jerky! :D

2nd) Shameless plug /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif.... Check out my band's myspace page. If you like what you hear help us get our play's up. ;)

O.k. we are full. the wait list will be up in a minute. WOW 6 days. that is a new record for sure!! If you would like me to add you to the wait list Post, PM, E-mail or call.
dave@easternskatesupply.com
910-200-7453

when you contact me please give me an e-mail address AND Phone Number. 16 people got in last year off the wait list and we only have 3 so far so there is still a chance.

Yeah people dont give up. I was 8th on the list 2 years ago and i got in. And being its 2 months away you can be sure multiple people will have conflicts of schedule and have to drop. Either way this thing will be full for sure come tee time

looking at the wait list, is buddy still baggin or what, no division listed?

: ) :

nah boodroe is playin open.

Is this the fastest a NC Tnmt has filled?. Have room reserved at the Comfort Inn. Easy in easy out, just down the street from Hooters where Jerry will be entertaining the 2008 Hooters Champion to Wings. :D

Reg list has been updated. if anyone wants to get on the wait list let me know. Rocky i got some of that jerky at the Raleigh Disc Golf Ch. and that was some good eats. we would love to have some for CTP's at the Azalea!! thanks buddy.

See what i Can doo brother, TD always get a bag just because The Roooooccccckkkkkkk, Saaaaiiiiddd sseeeewwww. :p

Just took a glance over the Reg list and saw a name I didn't recognize. Looks like a pretty good golfer. Anyone know who this Joe NOBEL is? :D

Never heered of him :D

i think i've seen him once. he was wearing funny looking socks.

heard he's a mullet

: ) :

Mr. Dave - OFDA will be bringing a few CTP's (If that is cool?)

This will by my first tourny down there and I have heard nothing but "Top Shelf" comments about it!

Any Sports preferences for the CTP's that I bring??? A few may know what I am talking about.. for those that don't I have brought unopened boxes / sets of sports cards to a few past tournies. So... do I need to bring a couple PSA 10 graded cards??? or something real old like a tobacco card??? If I don't get any feedback I will just bring some troll cards.

Or LMK if they are stupid!!! LOL

Trig out

(Ya'll think about coming down to Scott's tourny next Month here in jville / richlands)

I can e-mail you a flyer if you need it.

I will take a Tobacco Card!!!! And i will be there next month for sure down in Jville

ok... but you kinda have to win the ctp...

LOl

trig out

I guess I should add... Win Again!!!

I am not a Bad Rec player though..LOL according to the PDGA :D

Rocky -

Are u bringing a "Garganchuan Gaggle of Geist's? (That is a large number of Geist's... not a number of large Geists... Big Difference ya'll)

Can't wait to see ya'll... You coming for the Tourney in JVille right?

Trig 40 (I might not be able to drive far... But I make up for it by missing the putt!) out

Yes, 4 of em. Gives us a chance to have a Family Fued, disc golf style....LOL

Trig40, if you are sure 'bout going to The Crosstown; do you want to split a room. maybe travel up there???

Ya'll think about coming down to Scott's tourny next Month here in jville / richlands
I can e-mail you a flyer if you need it.


can you e-mail that flyer to me? if you do i will put it up in our kiosk and talk about it next month at the monthly to see if we can help you guys promote it. Is there a thread started yet on it? thanks.

Trig (I just throw it hard... you know... in case it actually misses the tree) out

: ) :

Jesus it's like wheres waldo doing these tings. i am starting to cut and paste from here on out. tell upcrack i will fix it first thing tomorrow. sorry jon not john /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

hahahaha, doing a great job Big Wave, just gotta give you a hard time. you know that

: ) :

You know as i was updating our super sick web site (not sure if everyone is familiar with it)
www.newhanoverdgc.com (http://www.newhanoverdgc.com)

and i started to realize what a historic year 2008 was.

We had our largest first place Pro cash of $450.00

We also had our course record broke by 2 strokes.

i thought Hofmann's 54 was hoTT in 2007 but Schwebby's 52 the last round of 08 was unreal. (it was really nice being able to persent schwebb with his first win at the Castle. i know he had been waiting a long time for that one)

then i realized something else happened last year that no one had ever been able to do in the 6 years of the event.

Schwebby shot all 4 rounds in the 50's. first time ever. he barley did it with a 59 one round but wow 4 rounds sub 60 amazing!!

if anyone would care to check some of the records at the castle they are all here to see
History Books (http://www.newhanoverdgc.com/records.html)

Would love to write some new History this year. we are already off to a sick start filling the event faster than ever. 5 days.

I think this may be the fastest a tnmt has filled in Carolina, and with a rather large waitlist.

Somebody things right. Good Job BWD, and NHDG

hahahaha, doing a great job Big Wave, just gotta give you a hard time. you know that

: ) :


Thanks buddy, i know and i was kiddin in my last post :Dwhen i see what i actually typed half the time ( i am usually on the phone talking to a customer at work and typing reg. list entries at the same time / same as half the posts i write durign the day) i jsut have to laugh and then make the correction. see look i did it again i dont know why but i always get to the S before the U. gonna have to work on that.

Great website, wish I could of made this event, next year.

Thanks Tyson. and we would love to have you man. it still blows me away how quickly we filled this year.

I have room for two to three if you dont mind dog's. I have three that rule the house. I live about 10 min's. from the park. PM me if you need a place to stay.

Schwebby shot all 4 rounds in the 50's. first time ever. he barley did it with a 59 one round but wow 4 rounds sub 60 amazing!!



The dang monsoon winds and tornado like whether at the end of round 3 in '07 kept me from the sub 60's all 4 rnds. The 7 on 18 to finish in the 30-40mph winds got me for a 63. (Someone should have called it but....) I did manage to shoot a 59 with a snowman on my card the last round, lol. Can't wait to get back there again this year! Thanks for all the hard work Dave!

30-40 mph winds, that is putting it lightly. Moments before you came through, I through a Thumber on 18, and it landed on 2nd base in the ball field. Was OB

Golfers, Clubs, Businesses -
We are still activley seeking Sponsorship money to make this Azalea the biggest and best ever. As always your sponsorhip will get you a rather large sign with any information you wish to display on the hole you sponsor for 3 full days as well as multiple mentionings and embelsihments during all of my great speeches.
There is a paypal link for anyone that wants to send money electronically Here (http://www.newhanoverdgc.com/azalea-tournament.html)

there is also information on the flyer here (http://www.newhanoverdgc.com/azalea-tournament.html) if you would like to mail us a check. any and all help is greatly appreciated!!

Ok, it has been three weeks since anyone has posted on this thread. Can't be havin that on one of my favorite tourney's of the year. Maybe everyone is just out practicing or something. AnyWho, can't wait! Three and a half weeks or so and it's game time!

way to far back for a tournament a week away.

What is the pin placement going to be for the event?

: ) :

we will play Hole 1 in the Alt position. which is the straight shot 285' (same placement we played last year) and weather permitting we will play 15 in the Alt long position (same placement as last year) witht he rain we have gotten the last few weeks it got a little soggy back there but we have spread mulch on the green and that went a long way to firming it up. i think as long as the rain stays moderate for the next 9 days we will be golden. if we do get alot of rain we will just play Hole 15 in the OG position. OG and alt are approx. 80' apart.

thanks dave, that was fast. must be a slow day selling boards

: ) :

Play a tnmt without rain, yea ok.

thanks dave, that was fast. must be a slow day selling boards

: ) :


haha nah my job jsut isn't that hard ;)

i know how you feel Dave, isnt it great. lol

I can' wait for this one. This Saturday is the monthly at the Castle. So everybody come on out to get two rounds in with the port city crew before the tourney! Starts at 10am so be there before that. ;)

I'm gonna go off subject to let ya'll know that Jeremy Lee won a brand new car at the Carolina Hurricanes game tonight!

[censored]! To bad the Canes didnt win also. What kind of car?

26 lbs of the Mini Thumber's Jerky Meat marinating for the Azelia. Half pepper, half sesamme. Ctp's

I'm gonna go off subject to let ya'll know that Jeremy Lee won a brand new car at the Carolina Hurricanes game tonight!



Go Worm...that's awesome!! I actually watched most of that game, which in itself is almost as unlikely as winning a car. :cool:

Play a tnmt without rain, yea ok.



I'll just be happy if I don't get rained on while sleeping in Dave's guest bedroom

JJ, I think BWD wants you to let the dog out...LOL :D

Play a tnmt without rain, yea ok.



I'll just be happy if I don't get rained on while sleeping in Dave's guest bedroom

I had alot of fun playing the pain. I feel it completly. Great groups, fun rounds. BWD and staff put on a great show. Wish I could have stayed around for ceremony, but had to get the Cool Vanilla Hemi north bouns. School next day. Good Job guys

Mini Thumber

Great people, great course, great weather, great food, great event, and great tournament! This was my last event in the US as of now and I had a blast. I tied my PB in one round, so what more can I ask for? (I know, better golf *lol*) It was great ending my time here with my local, and I call it home-club. A perfect way to end my time here. Really enjoyed it all with the huge disc golf family from NC!!!

!!!THANKS FOR THE GOOD TIME EVERYBODY!!!

PS: If anybody ever makes it to Germany, you better look me up! ;)

great meeting you Markus, keep discing around Germany
: ) :

Way to go Port City! Great time. Rocky, great (as usual) jerky! Thanks.

Markus, keep in touch.

Vielleicht werden wir uns wieder auf dem Konkurrenz-Feld in Deutschland, meinem Freund treffen. Das ganze Beste zu Ihnen!

Great tournament Deacon, Good shooting LL, and thank you Brian Mcree (great win!) for playing open.

Doc

Glad you enjoied it Doc, were gonna miss our German friend. God Speed Markus.

Lost a Star Firebird on hole 8, in the creek to the right 100 ft from basket. If someone finds it please contact me so we can figure out it's return.

Scores will be up in 30. Mike my phone died. thanks for the help!!!!!!!!!

I am a man of my Word (http://www.pdga.com/tournament-results?TournID=8653)

Wow, I had a blast! The course looked amazing and the weather was incredible. The event ran silky smooth and lunck on site is always a plus.....especially when your wife is out shopping with the car and the card. Thanks to everyone involved in such a great event! Good job Big Wave!

Dave, once again thanks for the place to stay, and thanks for running another awesome event!! I absolutely love this event, and will not miss it unless something unusual happens. Thanks to all who contributed to helping run the tournament, and making the course look spectacular. By the way, a 1025 rating for a 55? lol.. As I have always said and I think everyone (except Chuck, lol just kidding!) will agree, I find it hard to believe that Kenny or anyone rated in the 1030's could possibly average a 54 on that course for 4 rounds!! See everyone next year!

JJ

2nd. if you rounded up 25 players rated in the 4 digits you would have a much more accurate ssa (hmmmm.. lets say right about 60.25) for castle pain. i had a great time, tough/ fair course, well run and big wave- you are da man (as always sir). a piece of advice for those in the future who plan on playing in an upcoming tournament... dont use your face/ throwing shoulder to break your fall on concrete while running full speed while smashed drunk, uh... ive tried that and it doesn't work.

video of the after math out there somewhere.

three teeth

not jerms teeth though. inside joke

thanks for running another awesome event!!


Thanks JJ " i know that was a good tournament" :D (inside joke from "fundamentals" i am no where near this cocky in real life (( close but not that bad)))

no but seriously thanks EVERYONE for the kind words. as always from the inside there where some things that could have gone smoother but from the majority of people i have talked to and heard from it seems to have been a successful event.

I am super stoked that fun was had and that people enjoyed themselves at Castle Payne again this year. you guys keep comin we will keep runnin events......maybe more than one a year :o

Next year, we may need to solicite tylenol in becoming a sponsor. I still feel the Payne. Good Job Dave and Crew

Once again, nothing but a fantastic time at The Azalea! I know I mentioned this to Dave but I want to post this for all club members and volunteers as well. This weekend confirmed for me that this is my favorite course I have played. I love the fact that it is a par 64. You have to make a lot of good golf shots and manage the course. IMO, that's the way it be. The fact that the course is spotless and kept up as well as it is only makes it that much more of an experience. Thanks to all who helped make this weekend a blast! This one of a few dates that I keep in the back of my head and look forward to(along with my anniversary).

I enjoyed every minute of the tourney as well as the great and friendly competition. I even got to see someone try to digest his mini. Thanks Joe! ;-)

Awesome weekend!! Thanks!

again and again: I love it!!! and two tournaments at the castle would be awesome dave! maybe even an event with two courses here in port city!!! I keep dreaming and my fingers crossed!!! I would be back for that all the way from Germany! ;)
