I can not wait for the Party round that the Crush night glow round has turned into. Always a blast to party...I mean play in!!!!!

I can't wait.............................................. ......

Hey Brad, we are probably going to need some Abilene guys to bring a few baskets down for the alternate 18. Think you can kind of get us a count of how many are availible? We'll do the same on our end.

Yes. We are doing a temp. course set up her in town next weekend to raise some money for the new course so I will get a count of how many good baskets show up to it....

If you have the time and need more for you guys deal let me know....You can borrow mine! I've got 4 in my back yard these days.(2 are full length poles, so you'd be adding some elevation on a couple of shots)

Or better yet, email me some details before tomorrow's weekly update and I'll include it in there. Maybe we can get some people heading that way to help out with turnout.


btw- Missed you and Jerry this weekend????

I guess Patty will be stepping up this year.From the sounds of things here lately he has found his A game.

I know his wife would rather him step up and start bringing home cash instead of plastic!
Says he's still playing Adv. at the Crush though....

We had nine good baskets this weekend.

Question: Does Patty ever play good at his home course or is it his jinx?

Well normally Patty, and really a lot of CVDGAer's(myself included) treat The Crush weekend as one giant party weekend, and really don't care about how we finish. As long as we have the best time possible.
But as far a Patty's play of late....are you sitting down for this? Patty has stopped drinking, so I think the clear head has done wonders for his game. We'll just have to see if it continues....

Well, I guess he wont be able to enjoy to keg(s) of homebrew that I will be bringing. More for me, I guess.

Well I am no quiter.....So I'd be willing to take his place in the enjoyment :)

What kind are you bringing?

The new web page is up.....Still a work in progress but it is up....abilenediscgolf.net or .com will get you there....

Not sure what I will have, but I do have 15gals fermenting away and I plan on brewing again this weekend. We will see what I have left after the Bluebonnet Brew-off.

Any word on if camping is free this year???

I should be signed up by tonight.....

Thanks for asking Brandon.

What this means is all of you guys are from Tom Green County! ;)

Had a few more players register and a few asking about snail mail forms.

Not many people signed up yet...What is going on....

I imagine with it closing in on a month away, signups will start picking up soon.

I plan to sign up this week, just gotta re-up with the PDGA first.

Well we got the work day for the Crush behind us. Still got a few pin placements to replace, but all and all the course is in great shape. Lot's of moved teeboxes!

Haven't seen the new alternate 18 yet, but I hear it's good.

Trophies should be done any day, and they are going to be something special. Can't wait for some of you to see what we came up with for them this year. I will tell you they are heavy!

The Crush on the Conch will be here before we know it!!! This is going to be one fun weekend!

It is officially CRUSH week....woohoo I can't wait!!!!!!

It is officially CRUSH week....woohoo I can't wait!!!!!!

Come on weekend!!!!

We played our first singles mini at the lake to start setting our handicaps for the year, think +3 was the best score of the day. That was Eric.(Nick was in Witchita). The course is set up pretty hard right now, not all long, but mostly long for the 1st round of the weekend!


Are you playing in the friday doubles Brad?

Hello fellow disc golfers. I think my directions are sound but you can't beat directions from a local. I'm out of Austin but staying in Abilene. I will be coming up Saturday early early from Abilene to warm up and check out your course.

Much appreciated.

FYI..I'm playing this tourney because I ran into a few cool cats from San Angelo. Nick and Jeremy. They spoke highly of SA disc golf. Last and only time I played there was when there were just wooden posts for baskets.

I am still not sure if I will make it in time for doubles....Sure would love to though....Got three offers for partners,if work goes as planned I will be there in time.

Coming from Abilene you've got 2 choices, coming in through Bronte, or coming in through winters. I prefer the Bronte route, but both get you here. Once you get to San Angelo follow the loop all the way around town, you'll go a while....might even feel like a circle! You'll take the knickerbocker exit, take a right on kickerbocker. You'll got a ways down that road and come to a big church on the left and what BBQ place on the right, that's Red Bluff. Take a right on red bluff and follow that road all the way to the pay gate(remember you are from Tom Green County if they ask).

Hope that helps....
Write down Mike's phone number just in case you need any help Saturday morning.

Oh, and we actually have baskets now! ;)

Well aren't you just a popular guy!

Think I am going to save my left arm for the weekend! Got Jeanne's cousin coming in Friday for his first ever tourney...so I might go walk the blues with him Friday.

Nice...that sounds more like local directions. Thanks. Landmarks are always good. And why am I from Tom Green County? Should I wear shades, pull my hat down low, and sink down low as I pass through the gate?

Baskets are good! I just hope my discs like baskets this weekend...

You are from Tom Green Co. because it will get you in the gate cheaper than if you are not from Tom Green Co. Shades, hat low and sunk down is up to you ;)

As of 10pm Tuesday night - we have 73 players signed up! (http://www.pdga.com/tournament-results?TournID=9902) Compare this number to last year when we only had 42 preregistered players!

This does pose another problem... we're running out of shirts! We only have 2 Small, 5 Medium, 6 Large, 12 XL, and 4 XXL shirts left! Hurry up and get your registration in to secure your shirt size.

Come on 100!!!

Not really that popular...Just think there are a few guys that are desperate... I will call you when i get to town...I can't wait!!!!!I know for sure that Big Nate,Lee,Jimi and Joe are coming...Maybe know of a couple more possibles from here and lubbock!!!!

We are out of Large shirts! We have 2 Small, 3 Medium, 4 XL, and 2 2XL shirts left.... I expect those to be gone tomorrow. We had 19 more registrations today, bringing us to a total of 92 players with a few days left.

This is going to be the biggest Crush ever! Don't miss out!

100+ players here we come!!! Thought we were going to hit that number the past 2 years....looks like there is no doubt we'll get there this year! With 43 spots left, could we actually fill? Doubt it, but you never know....don't wait to much longer to sign up!

Do you guys do raffels to raise money for your disc golf club? If so(or however it helps), I've got 2 DVDs I'd like to donate from Worlds last year.

A buddy of mine played on one of the top cards at WaterWorks in KC. So I've got some cool video of Brad Williamas playing with Climo, Schultz, and Lacastro. All 18 holes of that round and the final 9 as well. It's about 2 hours of footage.

So ready to check out your courses. I've got many DG buddies ready to find out what I thought of the tourney and the courses.

I was actually born in San Angelo. So I guess I'm comming home.


48 hours and counting......

That would be very cool of you!

We are doing a raffle, part to bennifit the club, part for Texas Womens Championship.

Tomorrow,tomorrow I'll be there tomorrow....WooHoo I can't wait....

C-Ya 100 come on 135.....How cool it would be to see the Crush Full!!!!!Now is all I gots to do is get off work and make it down there....See you folks tonight!!!!

It's pretty amazing to see 115 players, would be unreal if it filled this year!!! Still a day left of in-person signups....it could happen!

Think the Crush is becoming one of the "must hit" events!

Come on 2-3pm so I can get to the course!!!!!!!

I hope all 147 of you had a safe drive home, and while I'm sure you've already seen them -
the results are online. (http://www.pdga.com/tournament-results?TournID=9902&year=2010&include_ratings=1)

I'd like to extend a huge thanks to everyone that helped this weekend. I never imagined I'd have to fit 147 players onto two 18 hole courses during my first TD experience!

Looking forward to next year,

Come on 100!!!

WOW, what a weekend.....After hoping we'd hit 100, we end up filling the Crush for the first time ever with 147 players??? Which ended up to be one of, if not the biggest Disc Golf tourney in West Texas. Something none of us could have ever thought was going to happen. We must be doing something right with the CVDGA!

I'd like to thank all of the players that came in from out of town, hope you all had as good of a time as we locals did. The Crush just seems to get more and more fun each year, and you guys support is a HUGE reason for that. Hope to see you all back next year with a couple of friends....we'll figure a way out to get more people in next year!

Also want to thank Mikey for running a great Crush on the Concho so we could all enjoy ourself's on the course. For a first time TD to get hit with this kind of a turnout, I'm sure you might have freaked a little, but you handled it perfectly, and things went as smooth as could be. Also thanks to all the staffers who helped Mikey make it such a smooth run event.

This was a great weekend....and I can not wait till next year's 9th Annual Crush on the Concho!!!!
