So, how did you play today?

[Azpostal]

Only got to play a quick 9 this afternoon but it was great!

Only 4 bogies in 18 holes, 2 birdie shots failed all in all my game felt better tonight. Maybe 100 holes a week is starting to show. Trying to grab a lesson but surprisingly difficult to get somebody to take my money here in dfw. Only played 28 holes today and started throwing a 150 class avenger today and I picked up an easy 50 feet. Went long on a 235 foot hole today. Damn what a great feeling.

Horrible! Simply terrible, worst round this year! Putt like a champ though, love making those 40 footers for bogie saves! Driving accuracy was horrible, I haven't hit that many trees in a long time. On the plus side, got to learn some things using get out of trouble cut rollers, tomahawks and sidearms.

Spent two hours this evening on the soccer fields and worked out an old habit that crept back in. I'll be at the course again tomorrow.

shot -1 first round. then my buddy lost a disc, so we were at that throwing stuff up 50 ft in the air (didnt get it) and i lost track of my score after that.

then played a speed round as it was getting dark and shot +1 with two cage hits on the putts from far out on the last two holes for birdies. wish i coulda sealed the deal. good day though.

FIRST ACE EVER!!!!!!!! 215 foot flick (I 90% backhand) with my Tangent. Terrible round till hole 16. So the round was terrible but my day couldn't be better.

Thanks man. It's a work in process but when it works, it's a thing of beauty.

Work in Progress. Yay autocorrect.

Played two 9 hole rounds at Beverly Park in Beverly Hills, MI today. My first 2 rounds there ever. shot a (-2) the first time through and a (-5) the second. A cool little par 3 course, pretty much only need to bring putters.

Good - tied my best score of even today at Mt Zion. Found my first Discraft disc - a yellow Force just sitting in the open - had initials on it of BK, but the only entity that I could think of was Burger King so it's mine now

A+

Played 18 holes at Knobley Mt. tonight.

Played a 3 Disc round from the White tees resulted in a 28, one off of the course record.

Then played a 2 Disc round form the Red tees and threw a 22, also one off of the course record.

So I am quite pleased with the results. Took one dumb double bogey due to a bad approach and poor putting on my first round and could otherwise tied, or even beaten, the course record.

played a course in bemidji. was very surprised to see how nice it was! very tight, technical lines. the only letdown was how short some of the holes were - for the most part even if you screwed up you could still potentially make par, but it had the smallest lanes i've ever had to hit (seriously, holes 1, 2 and 3 have 6' gaps to hit if you want a bird, and that's just the start) and lots of different lines. props! OB comes into play on several holes in the form of an old overgrown landfill with "no trespassing" signs and it has water hazards too. i would give it a must-play if you're ever up there. short, difficult yet very satisfying. you will have a much easier time of it if you can throw LHBH/LHFH or RHBH/RHFH. shot even the first time with 4 birds and an eagle; fell apart on the first nine and killed the second 9. shot -2 on the second round the day after, fewer bogeys, fewer birds. don't let the scores deceive you - that course will tear you apart if you're not on point!

i'd have to say my favorite hole on the course was hole 16 - 465' par 4 (dunno if it's accurate, but it is a longer hole) and over TWO PONDS with a lane to hit in between them and also an entrance to the woods where the hole itself is. SO fun to bomb it and taking an eagle made my day.

hole 16, just for your viewing pleasure.

from the teepad^ the light post is on the strip of land that divides the two ponds. there are trees to the right to avoid as well.

^from the light post, hole is in the woods almost dead center through the larger gap in the pines, just above and to the right of the white rock in this photo.

the gap to the woods, facing back out across the ponds.

such a cool hole! pretty simple shot once you boil it down, but still felt accomplished. there were so many tiny little gaps and short holes that the longer ones were truly a breath of fresh air. well designed course IMO.

should also mention i think distances on the longer holes were slightly overestimated by whoever initially measured.

Had a great foursome this morning. We figured out the map for our Ace Race. Had a couple of real decent rounds and just general fun.

 

[mball1684]

+4 at the farm...ugh not solid at all.

Played the Three Rivers Open in Ft Wayne saturday, the finale of the Indiana Summer Series. the venue was moved from swinney park to shoaff park due to flooding. never played shoaff, so went in a little blind, and it showed 1st rd. 9 added holes, shot +9. was really disappointed. then went -6 2nd round. 15 shots better. ended up 3rd in MM1 for the tournament & 2nd overall in the ISS. but i feel that i might play my rating instead of age protected in the Indiana fall series. i just think i made the jump up too soon. I feel that my game needs to become more consistent before i play MM1 again.

Started out poorly at Patapsco, losing three discs on the first 9. Dratted stilt grass.

Pulled things together and had some nice holes on the second and third 9's. Had a drop-in birdie on #8 short with a Star Tern (350' downhill tunnel). Overthrew #2 short-short by 30' with an Escape, but made the comeback putt. Played #10 long-long twice, and scored a birdie 3 both times.

Best (unintentional) drive was parking the short basket on #15 with an FD. Unfortunately I was playing the long basket . . .

 

[Stardoggy]

Two spins at the local 9. Putting was pretty good, everything else was meh. Lost a disc. Blah.

Haven't really felt like throwing this week...Flip City took it outta me last weekend, sorta forced myself to go today.
