anyone who can make it c'mon 9ish, I'll bring a weedwacker, won't be able to do much, still healing but can supervise;)

Coo, if someone can bring another wacker, I will bring a rake and some extra twine. I'm. There. Come one out.

Member 152 hits the ace on 11 - nice shot. Ace pot is now $0. With Johnee's $250 a few weeks ago, he leaves Joe with only $204 - not bad for one throw. Get back out there and start building it again!

i will try and make it in the am for a little while will bring my weed whacker .. bring gloves.

weed wacker with saw blade would be nice...anyone have one?

Don't forget we want the grass dead, but the little wild trees saved. Don't go blow through & kill it all just cause we're bent that is so F'd up.

I'm off today and can do some work today if anyone else wants to show up. I can use my neighbors weedeater. call me 538-5825

Would a mower work better out there being there is a lot of the thorny vines. just think that they would get wound up around the weedeater.

mower would def Help..

Thanks for all that are helping out to get that cleared out. It's a royal pain searching up in that shizzle!!!!!

Has anyone driven through OSP this morning yet? Post up what you saw.....thanks!

aight rain should move out by tee time.. lets do 3 man teams with ALL water OB...:eek::D

whos playing?

IF it is crazy raining let meet at virig rabb pavilion

LT says 17 is under water so I would assume 16 is as well.. He said 1 is still playable..

Will not make it with merch tonight - sorry.

JD is going to go check but LT said low water crossing blocks are up on both ends of the park,. by hole # 4 and by the dell diamond so that means cant get to the pavillions to even play the winter course,

Keith just called an said go in the park the back way and 17, 2 are not in the water

brushy the only thing not in the water is the bathroom roof HOLY ****

11 players
Jimmy/ware sqaure =61
JD/Denton=62
Martin=63
CTP= vinnie #9
I got the club/ace money

thanks for running the show V.. All I can say is the OSP course drains better then any other course I have ever played. The ground was barely wet.

I didn't even expect it to be playable. 17 was under water at 10:30 am.

Good times last night - the only time I got wet was when it rained for 20 min.
I did leave an ORC on B hole that I grip locked to the right if anyone plays the course...

Lookin' forward to this Wednesday....haven't played in 2 weeks! Haven't gone that long w/o a round in the last 8 years, at least it seems that way.

The CFO's will be flowing!

Only 8 more weeks till.......Powling!

And 10 or so till Texas Teams :)

Looking to play about 4 or so this afternoon. Call 7896956

I feel you JohnE. Et and I know what it's like to not be playing golf lately. I much appreciate the update on powling and Teams. It reminded me that there is light at the end of this tunnel...I just hope it's not a fully loaded steel hauling train!!!

can't wait to see what Shrek brings with him next week. Maybe we can get that doll to start bringing CFO's.........or a nice bottle of Crown.............if anybody can turn Shrek into a drunk, its the Double R.....

Shrek returns tomorrow....and I have an idea about what will be in his waistband, lol.

if OSP is anything like Wilco was yesterday.....BRING MOSQUITO SPRAY.

bring your CTPS

I'm back yatches! If anyone wants to get in on the 'who had the most fun' contest, it's go time. I've got two weeks of pent up anger from sitting in coach for 30+ hours I'm going to take out on a boatload of CFOs.

You want to be the man.... you gotta beat the man! WOOOOO!!!! Btw Manny, that's mine. You can borrow it, but it's already been claimed, circa 2005 Ice Bowl.

Yeah, Its yours, im just borrowing it. Its a Classic, thats why i like it. lol

P-Dub you'll have a lousy time tomorrow at Wilco. Shadier, cooler, less distance, shorter playing time=less beer!

Finally got me some Shrek!!! Look for some Pics coming soon. I got the Stanley Cup of The Wed Mini for a whole week baby!!!

it's already been claimed, circa 2005 Ice Bowl.

That is down in the lore of Central Texas..., hell, Texas Disc Golf Son...You better Recognize, Manny!!!!

17 players - no aces - Lala & Tony win @ 60 - Steve-o takes Shrek - not sure who got the other CTP

it was nice to be back outdoors.. 18 players no aces.

martin wins ctp..

1. mike A and Martin 57 $30
T2. cware/steveo, et/johne 61 split $24

That is down in the lore of Central Texas..., hell, Texas Disc Golf Son...You better Recognize, Manny!!!!

Yes, he has dibbs on it.
We worked it out.
He is quoting the original RF classic version.

Im using in my sig the MGS version.


because:

Patti, I need to talk to you about TX Teams, give me a call 296 5277

Ah so MARTIN won Shrek. Martin, i have it, i'll get that to you tomorrow afternoon at Wilco, cya there.

So, High of 88, and a slight lefty friendly breeze from the N @ 5-10
Better come correct and strong if you want any of this!!!!!!

whoa that is your weather report .. let me show you how we DOS it.

whoa that is your weather report .. let me show you how we DOS it.
You can tell by the difference in post counts, that I'm still in training

This will be our last week for 5:00 start :( We'll cut back to 19 holes (skip C & B). Following this week, for the next 2 weeks we'll start @ 4:30 with 19/18 holes, then continue to push time back until we move to the winter course in November.

17 players, 19 holes of golf

Ben aces #10 off the tree. Lala, I think Ben plans on showing up next week for the massive $75 ace pot payout. Ben, don't forget me, Keith, Albert, and Tony were on your card and we all yelled too (just not as loud as you did, heh).

1. Denton/MattHarris -5 (52) $30
2. Tony/Tony -4 (53) $15
3. Chili/SteveO -3 (54) $6

For those of you double checking, yes Tony payed and played double cali, and I neglected to factor in the additional $3 into the payout. Lala, let me know how you want to handle that.

is Ben current??? and who else got a drop in 2 on # 6???? :p:D also was even the worse score?

Think the ace Pot is $65 not $75 with 63 players since the last ace with 2 paying double cali. Hopefully I can get the money to someone to give to Ben Wed (yes he's current), not sure I'll be back by then :(.

okay

The wind yesterday was awsome, btw....out of the North, alot of downwind shots. Temps were great as well. Course was mowed, no trash......we got it good!

except hole 8,9,10 are a little tall ..

I drove by OSP yesterday. Now, hole 6 is completely ripped up. Ironically, the basket is still there! Its surrounded by large piles of dirt and earth movers, lol.

THE CABINET'S PLAN IS STILL TO MEET AT 4:30 AT HOLE #1. Yes, we will need to play Winter tomorrow, and possibly going forward as well. Since we can't guarantee we'll get the word out to everyone, that's why we are saying meet at #1, and given that we are going to play Winter, we'll have time to do the draw and get over there. Sucks? I agree! We had no advance warning. :/

Also, it appears that this work is moving forward and might possibly affect regular holes 7-10 in the near future. Its not entirely obvious at this point. I would expect that given we'll get a better look playing Winter tomorrow, we'll be better able to answer that.

I will not be there in time to play, but will come after work to give Ben & Vinnie their ace money - unless I see you tonight. Both Wed & Sunday ace pots are at $0.

With the move to winter course, will there be powling tomorrow?

Powling TOMORROW? I guess that depends on a couple of things....baskets, Vinnie and his 'puter, and food. I'd be glad to bring some charcoal. :)

sunday's ace pot is $12 :)

Craftsman will be there!!!With a big roll of dolla, dolla bills ya'll!!!!!
Oh, did someone say powling?
Let the games begin anew!!!

I will not make it with Ace money tonight. Sorry. Call if you'd like to come get it from me this week.

Because the water pipe construction had progressed over into the area between #8 teebox and #10 basket, we decided to play an abbreviated Winter layout of 9 holes, 2 times. And because we were doing that, we played singles.

whats dealio for next week?

I wish I knew it was singles last night......and no I am not stiring the pot

Boom

Sorry V, and everyone else as well.....we weren't sure WHAT we were going to wind up doing, until after we drove through the park yesterday at 4pm. This water pipe construction, and our lack of advanced notice, and not knowing how fast they are going on that, made it hard to predict last week and yesterday.

We'll communicate out the Wednesday plan going forward, a bit later today.

I wish I knew it was singles last night......and no I am not stiring the pot


Whats the matter, too much of a sissy to play dubs?????:)

Starting next week.........

o 4:30 Winter course, 2x9 hole loops until construction allows us to play full Winter
o Match play until after Teams (after Teams, we switch to singles and/or skins, TBD)
o Powling starts next Wednesday 10/13
o For first night of powling, club provides charcoal/meat for grill, club members bring sides
o Start time rolls back on Wed Nov 10 after daylight savings time has ended (time TBD)

Note for match play:
if #players divisible by 4 ==> 4 man cards, 6 holes per match
else if divisible by 3 ==> 3 man cards, 9 holes per match
otherwise, singles and/or skins


You'll notice there's no mention of doubles. So, we'll see you next week Vinnie! Let me know if you can't make it, so i can scrounge up a spare laptop for powling somewhere :)

nah just doubled out

so are we still on the winter course playing the original winter layout today and playing match play or playing the double loop 9? let me know and I will print out the correct scorecads for you guys

Entire winter if it is open, otherwise the loop...match play. I have a stack of the 'loop' cards, so if u would print out some regular winter ones that would be great. #13 signup by 4:30

ok cool thanks John...


MEMBERS dont forget to bring some side dishes.

what kind of meat is the club buying so my side goes with it..

so are we still on the winter course playing the original winter layout today and playing match play or playing the double loop 9? let me know and I will print out the correct scorecads for you guys

played entire winter course on monday. No problem. may need help getting carts over silt fence on the side ware reg. 8,9 and 10 are, but other than that it is playable.

Fajitas and coals. Chicken unless Beef is on sale. I'll bring some torts too.

We need baskets. Ed/Lala will either of y'all be able to bring baskets? What other choices do we have? Let me know, I have time to make phone calls.

Vinnie, you going to make it with a laptop? Do you need a new copy of the Powling software? Let me know!

JD will bring some shredded cheese and hot sauce. still need someone to bring cutting board , knife and cooking utensils for the grill

Chris, i'll take care of cutting board, knife, utensils (for this week)

I will bring sauteed onions and peppers.

I've got a box with all that stuff. I'll bring it as well, just in case. what else can I help with?

bud light :) hee hee

I'll bring 1 case just for you :)

bud light :) hee hee

Forget the queen (budlite) and bring the King (budweiser)......or your awsome pico.....thats if you have time..........thank god for the construction on the course as it has sent us into the part of the season thats really really fun for most of us.or a few of us....................and more singles Vinnie...............so bring your butt tonight cause Putter McGavin is in the house....

also since there has been 2 aces recently how come we have NOT seen any ACE Beer????

Please remember to bring your dollars. Times are very tough, and this will be my winter side job

If powling is doubles format-E I'm out

We played singles for payout, and Match for bragging rights. Next week, we'll have a 2-man team handling the scorecards/payout so that that process runs more smoothly. That'll make it easier, for example, to deal with cards that didn't total up match play results, and to verify the results. Also, next week we'll actually use the match play results for payout. Surely that'll make the effort fall more into place with the rewards.

Having said that, here's the scores. Seeware blows the field out of the water with a -7 which was pretty damm good considering the wind we had to deal with.

We were fortunate last night to have a basket and computer for powling, to go along with the club-provided fajitas and grub. To that end, we had one round of powling that initially was won by Ed until JD pointed out a scoring error (a strike marked as a gutter) that resulted in JD with the highest score.

The food was awsome, and just the right amount. Next week I am going to guess that the food quality will go down to the sausage level, but it'll still be good.

See y'all next week. Hole #13 4:30 cutoff, draw at 4:35pm sharp.


One more thing I'd like to add.....we should all be aware that to get change, its better to approach it in the right way. I thank Seeware for talking me through the finer points of handling a match play mini, after the round as well as this morning. Expect it to work smoother, more efficiently, and better communicated next week.

no problem John your welcome and I am always here to hep whoever needs it when it comes to taking sign up, marking ctps, getting cards ready, totaling scores and figuring out payout.. it will only get easier and smoother.

Yes....great Job John EEEEEEEEE as allways........thanks to the club for the grub.....and another great powling nite.................saw some money changing hands during the powling, but not sure who made out the best on that deal.......looking forward to sausage nite next week..............or whatever we come up with..............Hey Rusty, you make it home ok last nite?????????

oh yea forgot to thank the club for buying the meat and coals... but the members really slipped up on the sides.... next week we can start the menu talk on monday so we have it ironed out before day of. fun times powling

Anybody up for powling & cooking after the round? Need to arrange basket, computer, coals, & food if you are.

Does anyone have the current Powling program? If they could send it to me I would appreciate it. [email protected]

I'll get the coals. I'll also bring my spare laptop in case we need it.

And i provided Taz with a copy of the Powling software we started using this time last year. I would say its apples/oranges compared to doing it via a spreadsheet (current powling is implemented as Javascript running in a web browser). I was never good with spreadsheets, lol.

Will need a baket too, I'm pretty sure Edman & I will not be there tonight.

Vinnie, you making it tonight?

Who else has a basket.....Tony what about you? Chris I vaguely recall a basket in your backyard....is it portable?


Who is bringing food? i've got coals covered.

not coming

I wil have my cloth portable with me if it is needed.. also martin called said he will bring some sausage links if someone will being buns or tortillas..

How many people will be eating?

usually between 8-12

i'll get some Tortillas when i'm picking up the coals.

You guys bring all the plates, napkins, and charcoal and I will handle the food. I will see you all out there about 4:30.

make sure and get there by then....that's the signup cut-off

Ok. I will see you guys there.

Still have not heard of a basket besides Ware's cloth one.............Hey Vincent....we are doing payout by holes won this week not score (score will settle tag challange I assume) so forget last week and come on out..................There might even be a TREE sighting tonight..........................

I got a single chain disc catcher that I can bring out if you need it. Just let me know.

I have a Mach Lite I can bring.

Ok. I am only bringing food then. See yall shortly!

We might wind up with more than we need, but better than being short.....

i think its about time i bite the bullet and get me a basket. Never had one. Maybe i could learn to putt in the process, lol

Bring them all and we can have two lanes at least................see all in the 4pm range today............................................. ..............Rusty has tag #1.......go get him boys.....If not then tag#5 will have too!!!!

rusty will have tag 2 if he shows up since we ended up tied....

rusty will have tag 2 if he shows up since we ended up tied....

He will be there as he has already called about start time today..............can't seem to remember from week to week that guy.....but, thats Rusty!!!

Still have not heard of a basket besides Ware's cloth one.............Hey Vincent....we are doing payout by holes won this week not score (score will settle tag challange I assume) so forget last week and come on out..................There might even be a TREE sighting tonight..........................
My point exactly.......In true match play score means NOTHING........Keith you are on the cabinet and not sure of the format.
As a player I like to know exactly what the format is........You ever ask yourself about all these new members we have in the club, that used to play with us and now they don't show up. I wonder if it has anything to do with format or uncertainy of format........I am an old member and thats my reason.......Now don't everyone get their pantys in a bunch....have fun...enjoy....play for fun.....good times.
All I am doing is stating what many of the new members are to new to say and old members the balls to say

LMFAO

Good times with GOOD friends 12 pros and 7 ams .. sounds like the players are still coming out..

1. Blake 7 holes won $15
T2. Cware and Jamie 6 holes won split $17
T4. New guy Phil and John E 5 holes won split $4


Good seeing Tree out playing again that guy can still putt..

ams played skins due to odd number of players. so not sure who won heard Joe M had 10 and ware2 had 5 but not sure what the payout was.

John can you post up the ams skins and payout and who won powling?????


Able thank you for bringing the food for the masses sorry could not stick around but the wife had seafood on the brain so we headed to Blue star..

i see you lurking Tony you get my email about teams set-up times?

19 people GOOD trunout..!?!

i see you lurking Tony you get my email about teams set-up times?

Yes, I did I'll try to get out there Tuesday and setup, does anyone have some survey tape?

Ams:
1. Joe 11 skins won $11
2. Matty 6 skins won $7
3. Ware2 5 skins won $3

Powling....we had 2 rounds, 10 players each round. First round Abel wins with a 155....he had 7 strikes but it was the strategically placed gutters that kept that score from being much higher ;-). Johne got 2nd with a 150.

Second round of powling, Abel throws $10/extra into the pot for a $20 payout.....Jamie wins with a 145, Martin/JohnE/Abel tied for 2nd....in the ensuing playoff for 2nd and a whopping $5....all i know is it wasn't me, lol (i got distracted about that point)

i think we're focussing on last week which is not how its going to go, going forward. Last week I f*cked up. I made a bad decision. We will never again play match play and do payout by total score. Its over.

Yesterday, we played pure match play in pro. We did Skins for Ams because their player count wasn't divisible by 4.

Now lets be crystal clear about what we'll do going forward:

We will play Match play through Wednesday November 17th; if we can't swizzle the pro/am player counts to get a # divisible by 4 (required for Match play) then we'll fall back to Skins for one or both divisions. Total score will be meaningless.

After November 17th, we'll probably start playing pure Skins for some amount of time. Format and how long, though, are open to discussion. Everyone's input is important here, and it counts. Another option is a straight singles league. Let's make it our goal to decide by the time Teams is over, what format to play after that. We've got the time to mull over the options. Perhaps a vote when we're all at teams? Personally i think we'll have time to do both a Skins league, and a singles league, between the end of teams and the start of daylight savings time. I think there's around 20 wednesdays in there.

From now till daylight savings time kicks in again in the spring, we'll do our best to make it so that after the round, we grill and powl. That's a turnout-wide effort there to bring together food and baskets. So far we are 2 for 2. :)

Another thing I'd like to do is get some sort of powling LEAGUE set up that spans, say, 10 weeks (or perhaps.....the entire powling season), with a championship at the end. THAT would be cool. I've got this week's statistics saved, but to be fair, we should probably start next week. Anyone interested in that?

And one more thing, where the h*ll was JD last night??? heh

Oh and a big thanks to Abel for stepping up with all that food he brought. THAT's an example of what it takes to make the after round fun be that much better. :)

And Martin......i stuck that big pack of jumbo hotdogs that you left in my ice chest, in my freezer.......i'll have it next Wednesday.

4:30 start, new winter course layout - C hole is hole 1. Ware will have cards marked with new layout. New $50 bounty for landing on top tier of both B holes for current members. The ace pot is $500 per Wednesday (current members only) - multiple bounties can be paid in one night.




15 players this same week last year so yep 19 is GOOD turnout.. !!?!!

Hey LALA is the above statement still accurate about the bounty on landing on the top shelf of B-hole???

Lala.......we had another ace last night! Larry (LBA) aced reg #11. Congrats Larry, who says you can't ace #11 with a knife shot that falls directly in the basket? heh

really nice shot Larry !!!

Thanks. made my day.

There are no bounties on any holes - there's no back up ace pots fo rthem to be paid from.

You should have all the money from when Ben aced until now (I think) - you're welcome to pay him. Nice shot LBA.

i dont have any of the club $$

You asked about the bounty, so I answered you.

John asked about the ace pot so I answered him. GTFOYS.

ah have GREAT DAY

Vincent

I think John EEEEEE addressed your statements as best as can be done. Its real hard to please everyone every wednesday night. Part of the problem was with construction on the course which took us over to the winter sooner than in other years past. This club started wednesday's playing doubles for NO money. Then over the years money has become the thing everyone wanted to do. When money is involved with people, alot of the time it causes problems like, can't win enough in doubles or can't play due to the 5.00 dollar entry. Seems every wednesday for me at least and a maybe alot of the others that its a fun night, I don't come out to WIN money and If I do, its a bonus for the fun night out. Others get PO'ed if they don't or complain about the format or had a bad day at work or a fight with there spouse, whatever..........Wednesday's were formed as a fun night out with fellow members. If some people can't handle that or don't like it, then they can run for office in the club and make changes as they see fit. Otherwise, shut your pie hole, come out and play with the rest of the CLUB members and have fun or go where ever the heck you want to go and play. Its things like this that has me so PO'ed about the club and the reason I am retiring from the board at the end of this term. Then I will be able to sit back and watch what happens with the club going forward. I know that we have plenty of great people in the club and they will become the new leaders of the club and I know that going forward all the petty BS will go away.............So for all you money or nothing guys and only will play if its singles or don't show up cause you guys don't keep the same format each week or change it week to week, get off your butts and do something about it, otherwise shut the hell up and go play with someone else's club, cause all your doing is dragging a negative into a positive for most of us..........If I hurt some peoples pride, to darn bad, I'm 54 years old and life is short and I don't have time to pamper people kiss their butts or whatever the little babies need. If you don't like it, change it, otherwise again, shut your pie hole.
Now, thats more than I have said in a long time, and have no problem having this conversation with anyone any wednesday night face to face.....I am easy to find on wednesday, so come and get some..

T Keith May

JohnE make sure all member are able to vote .....not just the ones that show up on Wednesday or on this forum....and thanks for addressing the issue in a manner that is expected from the leaders of a club

Ware you should be the next treasure...you seem to keep good books....hell get on the board any postion.........your always envolved with club/cabinet business anyways

May....its not about money...... FOR ME I don't need to play for money during the week...I make plenty golf money on the weekends
Its about knowing what can be expected. This is not at all about me....you all can make it all about me if you all need to justify yourselfs. But there is a big picture here.....like the same four or five people do all the work for the club, or where have all our members gone, or what direction is the club headed..............check the bylaws.............
By the way CAT HOLLOW has a single mini EVERY Saturday.....no vote needed

BY the way
Who is running Outlaws next year? club event
Who is running Pro Dubs next year? club event
Don't worry your heads about TWC or USWDGC those are not club events


Don't let the sound of crickets drown you all out

dont worry about ME!!!!

maybe the new cabinet and the members wont want to run your old tournaments you dumped on them!!! but i guess we will have to wait and see what the new cabinet and MEMBERS decide....

have fun at cat hollow

I said what I had to say and thats it..............any other conversations will held in person
anytime any place............

dont worry about ME!!!!

maybe the new cabinet and the members wont want to run your old tournaments you dumped on them!!! but i guess we will have to wait and see what the new cabinet and MEMBERS decide....

have fun at cat hollow

worry about you.......no thanks!

And you say they are my old torunaments....what makes them my tournaments? And I dumped on the club? whatever!!
Round Rock bennifitted from the events....hell the club has made money on one of the events.Maybe Round Rock doesn't need to show off it courses,maybe we don't need new courses, maybe we don't need new members............ and as far as Cat Hollow.......don't much care for playing that course....but it is nice to know exactly what to expect when you sign up......
Stay tune folks.....lets hear who has to have the last word

Did I just hear someone say they want to be treasurer? Oh no, that was the crickets.

Please remember that elections for cabinet members are happening in 2 weeks. I've only recieved 3 nominations & we have 2 open seats for sure. I'f you're willing to do the work & take the heat, please let one of the current cabinet members know (me, Edman, JohnEEE, PDub, or May). If you wanna sit back & whine about what others are (or are not) doing... ...I think you know what I have to say about that. :)

Sorry I'm late, but what are the 2 open seats? Who has been nominated?

holy crap mr. may. good typing. that would have taken me about four hours.

President & sgt @ Arms are open. Vinnie, Manny, & Able have been nominated. I think Vinnie may be a little busy next year to serve on the board, but the other 2 have accepted their nominations.

You guys need a basket tonight or is that a bad idea too?

Bring it Ed! LBA I'll have a cooler with extra ice to hold ACE BEEEEEER! V, hope to see you there, i'll bring my laptop just in case.

OK on to food. At the very least we'll have about 20 jumbo hot dogs; I'll bring some tortillas and charcoal. Who else is bringing stuff? Don't be shy

Manny when is your BC over? If you can't make the mini, you can still Powl. We start that about sundown.

Don't forget to set your DVR's for tonight's 1st game of the world series! :D

Go rangers

I am going to play a round around 5:30pm if anyone wants to join before powling. Winter #4

Based on the feedback, i should probably just get a small bag of coals. :confused:

(j/k....i'll have plenty, just in case)

small bag allways works..........as long as we have a lap-top and a basket powling will be just fine................and if anyone has a hd tv with hd rabbit ears, we could watch the Ranger game as well while we powl............7:05 first pitch might explain why no-one responded to the BBQ thing............no worries mate, its wednesday and anything can happen...........

i can bring some beans w/ham someone grab some torts and buns.. and mustard for the hot dogs.

Go rangers
Viva Los Gigantes!!!!!

Timmy takes out Lee in game 1.

Really McCaine? Im not a ranger fan, but you gotta at least root for your home state, especially when the farm team is in your back yard

Maybe he likes them because San Francisco is the most Gaaaay frienldly city in the US. OOOOps!

LT. Shaking head. :)

Jamie, I've always liked the Giants, and the Express are dead to me now.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. How are doing James?

Doing well. Still can't beat Vinnie.

Guerrero is lucky he can hit cause that fielding is ugly.

How's the knee, or is it knees?

GOOD times with Great Friends. no aces last night but there was ace beer present.. THANK YOU Larry Kenny. YOU THE MAN

Yes really good times as allways.............and yes, thank you Lil'Bigarm for the beer....also thanks to everyone who brought food, and John EEEEE for doing the powling score keeping with ED-Man assisting...........good times were had..

We had an odd number of people last night, making Match Play un-doable from a consistency standpoint. As announced several times, we fell back to Skins for both divisions. Lala when you get a chance, can you post the details of who won what? Don't forget to mention you won Ams with 17 skins and had a near-ace to boot. :)

The most memorable thing that happened to me last night, was when Joe came up to get his Am payout and he said "she won HOW MANY SKINS???", heh

Joe needs to move up. And Lala, if you do that again, it'll be time for you to move up too! :D

Sorry for the delay posting, some of us have real jobs. 19 players - 10 open 10 am no aces Lala skips out of pan on winter hole 10 (backwards 8). Plaaed skins with odd #'s

OPEN
Steve-O 10
El Chile 9
JD 3
Tree 2

AMS
Lala 17
Joe 12
Ware2 11

& for those of you that are wondering about me winning with 17 skins. I had won 12 when my card quit & would have taken the other 5 even if they hadn't conceded - yes really.

are those skins won?? if so then the open payout is messed up..

May won 6
Denton won 5
ET won 4

Tree had 9 not 2

Chris, I agree, those #'s aren't right. I emailed her privately. No biggie, we got the payout right at the park.

ah cool... let me know if you need help with that part on weds.

so who wants to Cook and Powl this week after the round? going to be a little chilly.. so what do we want to cook???? suggestions??

i"m down for cookin. I can bring something. I'll see what i got.

cool let me know what you are bringing and I will try and bring some kind of sides for whatever..

sounds good. I may go to restaurant depot later today, maybe pickup wings or links. anyone else have any ideas?

neighbor dropped off some deer sausage yesterday due to no more room in his freezer, I'll grab a pack or two of that to throw on the grill for after the round...........baskets???
I remember John EEEEEEE saying he might not make it tomorrow due to family being in town...........who else has the powling game set up to bring on their lap-top if he is in fact a no-show.........????

got computer and powling covered and cloth basket ..real chains are alwys nicer... I will bring some torts, mustard and a pack of sausage

got computer and powling covered and cloth basket ..real chains are alwys nicer... I will bring some torts, mustard and a pack of sausage


will bring chips, hot sauce to snack on while food is cookin.

this will be the last week for 4:30 tee off .. daylight savings is this sunday ..

I know that the weather right now is not looking so good.....but by the time we tee, the skies should be clearing and the temps will be in the 50's......as the scores should be, so see all those how believe that it will be nice.....and those who are not sceeeerd.....got Charcoal and Torts at lunch, bringing deer sausage to go with it. Martin, bring your dry box if you can..as you have the BBQ tools we will need......otherwise we find a stick, which has been done a bunch when it comes to Sausage....

martin wont be there.. I will try and grab something when I run to the house

will bring chips, hot sauce to snack on while food is cookin.

Had to do some stuff out south. Sorry I couldn't make it.

6 open and 3 ams no aces.. next week last card will tee no later then 4:00 due to daylight savings..

1. Steve O 10 Skins $10
2. JD 9 skins $5
3. Cware 6 skins $3
4. ET 5 skins
5. Ware2 2 skins

http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/9936/powling11310.jpg

I had 10 skins. Don't go selling me short.... sorry Larry, no pun intended.

ok weds is one day away .. who wants to powl and if so who is bringing what for the grill? i can bring computer with music and cloth basket.

i'll bring coals, grill grabber, and mustard.

For now (prob unti ltime changes again), we'll offer a flex start (still playing match play until the week after Teams). When four people come that can make up a card, that card will be sent out. The last card will need to tee no later than 4:00 (will have about 2 hours of daylight). Payout will happen at the pavilion while powling is set up.

what happens to payout when the last card is only 3 people (playing skins)and all the other cards are 4 (playing match play)???

What possible solutions have you thought of?

No, I'm not being an a. I thought we could pay one card individually for the skins or give the 3 of them their $3 back since they played a diffrent format.

In the past, even when we offer flex start, everyone stands around bsing until the last card is supposed to go anyway & I think everyone has mostly played the same format in the end.

ok weds is one day away .. who wants to powl and if so who is bringing what for the grill? i can bring computer with music and cloth basket.

Will probably not make it in time to play the round tomorrow due to work (thank god I have something to do at work), but will get there in plenty of time to powl....will grab some deer sausage from the deep freeze to bring as the wife does not like it that much anyway, and i would rather share it than eat it by myself.....going to be running all day so will not have a chance to check and see what else is being brought out for cooking tomorrow so if someone could grab some torts that would be nice..See all at some point tomorrow....


P.S. I still have the BBQ tool from last week for flipping sausage/wings/whatever in my truck..........................

we can do payout by card..

4 players match = $12 1st gets $9 and 2nd gets $3
3 players skins = $9 winner takes all...

thanks Keith I will try and bring something for the grill as well.

Love it... So it sounds like we have a format and the payout before Wednesday is actually here... Love it...

hey "love it guy" don't forget your basket tomorrow, and also your GAME!!!! Its time to find one of them, and GAME is on top of the list big guy!!! HEE HEE!!!

I will do best to load basket tonight... Just wish you were going to be there for the round - I need you on my card to increase my payout chances :-)

I have basket for tonight, a pack of dogs and six CFOs ready to go...

cool, thanks Mike. Your bro's got the powling computer covered, I'll have coals (and some backup sausage in case we're short, if not, i'll bring next week).

Looking forward to my first round in 2 weeks. :)

i got a pack of torts (10) and earl cambell hot links..

Switched the days that i go to bootcamp so i will start showing up on wednesdays again. Have not been in a while and i am looking forward to it. See yall tonight with CFOs in hand. may stay for some powling for the first time also.

is this another idle threat like last week when you didn't show??? :eek::D

Not that anybody cares...
But we played skins on our card. I got the first 11 (lucky kick off a tree- then everyone donked their putts), then Blake was awarded the rest because he got CTP on our last hole.

Real good times! Nice to make a Wed. mini again!

really should be a better way to award last skins than a ctp on final hole. like best score

you dont keep score when playing skins or match play.. once the skin or hole is won you move to the next tee...

you guys keep score?? that could be why ya'll where the last card done..:eek:

I did get the ctp but I won the skins by getting the 2!

We did not keep score.

That's right, Blake did nail the 2- we said CTP but that did not factor in cause he won the skins outright! Good finish Blake, sorry I forgot.

wasn't my point and never mind.

Found a glass mini at the rock last thursday. Might have been from wends. Mini. Its was a 1st place mini from wilco.

I believe that belongs to JD Baker

Think we could match Team against Team this week? 4 Teams - 4 person cards. Don't shoot me down right away - it's just an idea.

Like

its gonna be windy today Disceros. Calling all 3 Texas Teams Swing players. You can either build your confidence before teams by coming out tonight and playing against me and beating me or get it crushed and get beat by me, or stay on the porch with the pups. BRING IT SWING PLAYERS!!

Starting this coming Wednesday we'll have 10 weeks of singles by division with an end of league payout - I think they said best 6 of 10 weeks. Flex start (have a card - go play) with last card a 3som going out by 4:00. This will aslo be the end of the Bag Tag Challenge & we'll have the championship @ NorthTown Park in late Jan.

Hey gang..........I am planning on being there tomorrow for first week of singles, but in the event that I don't (family) I would like to wish everyone a safe & happy Thanksgiving......HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

Doubt we'll b there, if so, will have a couple of Arkies with me

Will there be powling tonight?????

been asked by a few ams if the payout for them at the end of the league will be in plastic or cash? also is there a pot luck style dinner and powling tomorrow after the round? thanks

Should be plastic - that's what every other club in the US does - but I'm not sure.

Planning on pot luck - I'll bring some smoked turkey we cooked while playing North Town this weekend.

Should be plastic - that's what every other club in the US does - but I'm not sure.


So was the tuesday summer mini a one time thing, paid $10, AMs got cash payout weekly and at the end of the 10 weeks, if you had the points, AMs got a 10 week payout. AND SON OF A GUN, I GOT A PAYOUT.

How that goes from Cash to plastic, ????????

That was one of the best ran minis that was around.
I loved it and looked forward to it every week.
Why was that format/payout abandoned?

Tell ya what, Im just a newbie, an AM player.......

Seriously, Im on a ledge here, talk me down. :confused::confused:

This may cause some whip-lash, but these are my thoughts. From the time we started charging to play the wednesday mini, we have allways paid out in cash (pro & am). At some point last year or maybe early this year we changed it to plastic and that did not seem to work due to low number of am's. I know one week I won am's and my payout was 8.00$$........we don't have 8.00$$ disc so i got a spotter and a credit which i never used and/or forgot about. So we went back to cash payout's on wednesdays. Believe me I am no pro, but play it so I can learn from the pro's no matter how bad I play, it seems to help in the long run (teams was an example this year). I still don't have their arms but have learned that smart golf sometimes beats big arms. All I can tell you guys (Abel & Manny) is that this club listen's to its members and the new cabinet coming in will also listen to the members, so hang in there, enjoy friends and some golf and believe that whatever the bump in the road give us, we have the power to fix the bump and move forward. I don't play sundays due to the 10.00$$ entry so I can't say anything about sundays. But I do play wednesday's and for 5.00$$ its worth it to me to play pro and donate my cash to someone else's pocket cause I get to see and be around great people and great golf and I learn from it and sometimes cash. I wish and hope that just because every club in the US does it that that does not dictate what our club does as like i said before, we have allways paid out cash for Pro & AM for as long as I have been in the club, and that has been since the beginning. So don't go away, stick around and work with us to fix the bump. Hopefully you are off the fence now. If not, then these words have fallen on deaf ears........Hope to see you guys tomorrow.......

Well May, You have a way with words and have explained things that help me to see things in the right manner and i appreciate that. I will go with the way things are done and if there are any changes/bumps, i will present them to the powers that be and let them vote on them. I will see everyone on wednesday.

10 days of my discs collecting dust.....I must say I'm thrilled to be able to play tomorrow!

I'll bring charcoal, some backup Cheap Sausages (tm), and of course, an ice chest full of CFO's!

Ware you got the 'puter covered or should i bring mine?

Baskets?

i got the computer and music covered

Glad to hear that Manny............never ever like seeing a member leave PO-ed about club stuff.........Now it seems Abel needs you to talk with him about this as I'm not sure he has changed his mind about the club............Would love to see him stay with us and enjoy the game we all love..............Heck, I'll play am's with you guys and still have loads of fun, cause thats what disc is to me, FUN!! And at 5.00 bucks, its even more fun.
Come on Abel, bring your 5.00 bucks and lets have some fun......

[QUOTE=johne;1444035]10 days of my discs collecting dust.....I must say I'm thrilled to be able to play tomorrow!

Me too John EEEEEEEEEEEEE........its been way to long since throwing a disc (Teams) so yes, looking forward to seeing everyone and playing some golf tomorrow.........................................B askets?????????

Folks, here's one doc that has it all....the league info, weekly results, and the league standings, including the running total for end of league payout. Yes, it is a .txt file. No, it is not a spreadsheet.

I'd like to point out that for this 10 week league, we WILL be paying ams in cash during the weekly minis. It will be the end of league payout where the ams will receive merch. No, we don't disagree with the things that some have pointed out about plastic vs cash....especially Blake's well written post. Yes, we realize that things aren't always consistent as we want them to be. :D

Here's the league info:
http://pages.suddenlink.net/johne/WinterSinglesLeague.txt

The top section are some details of the league; i'd be glad to fill in anything I left out, just contact me at [email protected] The middle section contains weekly results/scores. The bottom section has the standings. I'll update this each Thursday and send a note out that the page above has been updated.

Manny, can u create a link to the page above, on the Mini tab on the DoubleR website? Thanks! (perhaps we can discuss access so that i can deposit updates to this file weekly on the site hosting our club website...if so i can set up a redirect from the above link, to the Double R site, if it moves there)

Alright, so where do we go from here? Down to lower scores, hopefully. These #'s are embarrassing! Note that you have to play at least 7 of the 10 rounds before your high scores start being dropped. See yall next Wednesday!

Good times with bad scores - only 7 weeks left, hope I can pull 6 reasonable rounds out of my arse between now & then. What a goober - an 8. There are no 8's on the winter course, there aren't even any 8's on the big course. Double OB - how stupid is that? What a goober.

don't worry too much about it. snow men are a very christmas'y kind of thing.

Hey now, that snow man was dancing his arse off inside his double walled snow globe :) An 8 - what a goober.
