Tom (my freakin hero for one round at Worlds), where did you see the thing about tee times?

Gordo's previous post. At least for one round I had your respect... :)

Oh, I assumed that to me that he will post what the start times will be sometime during the week, not that there will be tee times, but now, I guess I just don't know.

For one round, it was beyond respect. I was a fanboy, texting Lou saying "I know that guy." On sportscenter, Chris Berman, knowing the proper spelling and pronunciation of your name was calling you Tom Nez Perce. The legislature debated whether they should start session early to commision a special Peirce coin to balance the budget. Absolutely giddy times.

Now......I've lost my train of thought..........what's your name again?

I'm not sure, I don't think I've seen anything about that on the web site (though maybe I missed it). You might need to call Bird and ask.

For more information www.centraltexasdiscgolf.com or contact Play It Again Sports (512) 444-2270 ask for Bird.

Bird just called in from the course to give some important information about what time players need to arrive on Saturday.

All players in a division need to be there prior to that division's 1st tee time.

That means that for the pro players, the first tee time is 8:30 am; so ALL pro players must be there by 8:30 am.

The other division start times are:

adv (MA1): 9:15 am
int (MA2): 10:00 am
rec (MA3): 11:00 am

To all those who helped make the course playable....Thank You!



For a first time TD....Great job Jeremy!
Free food, smooth transitions, great payout, AND a huge goatee! C'mon!

JD..way to play the Met blind w/ a 65! I guess the ace was all right too.

I'm only upset about one thing...... 'The Legend' is true;)
