So they've added two holes to replace 10 & 11 lost to the dog park?
None of them ever wonders why they made the basket with holes too big to hold charcoal.
Walked up on a guy getting a "hole in one" on a bench at my local course.
I traveled out to Jackson, MS for a Southern Nationals team competition at Rez DGC this weekend. On day one of the event I noticed an old fashion, everyone up to their chest in water, baptism being held in the murky waters between hole 17 and the parking lot. After a quick google search, I am now aware that there are an estimated 32,000-38,000 of them, alligators not baptists, in or around the Ross Barnett Reservoir. Now that's what I call faith.
Came upon a guy near a tee pad with 6 cats, 5 in one big cage and one in it's own cage. He explained that the isolated one did not play well with the others, so she got her own cage.
He was smoking a pipe and reading a novel.
Was playing Hornings Hideout not too long ago with TheLastDJ and there happened to be a wedding going on at the time. I guess one of the guys from the wedding party thought enough in advance to bring some discs, but not enough to bring any clothes for it. So, he just played a round in a tuxedo, suit pants, and dress shoes. If you haven't played Hornings, it's very wooded and rather steep in some places. But hey, props for him being that dedicated.
The only "Beware of Alligators" sign that I have seen on a Disc Golf courses was hole 18 at Lake Lincoln state park in Wesson Mississippi. I have never really thought much about alligators being in Mississippi. I guess they have enough make them get warning signs.
Over the Summer I played Lafrenierre park a lot just outside New Orleans. I was playing a round and I saw two guys chilling under a pavilion with a white goose. I was too intrigued not to go over and say hey. When I got close they were pouring the Goose a Blue Ribbon into one of their upside down discs on the ground. They told me the Goose just started following them from hole to hole and even helped them find their discs. They gave him beer for a reward which he loved. Definitely the weirdest thing I've seen on the course but def super funny too.
The funniest might be this guy who looked to be about in his 50's and stoned and drunk out of his ever loving mind at a tournament I played in Florida. He was so wasted at the end of the round about 6 people returned discs to him that he lost. I found two of his discs and he said to me "I don't even remember throwing those!" We all tried to talk him out of driving home that day, hopefully one of his buddies that was significantly less stoned gave him a ride that day.
So does this happen to anybody else? I've noticed that lately I seem to gather way more spectator attention than I used to. Especially people stop driving to watch me throw, that's getting to be about a once a round occurrence. I don't know if it's because I'm throwing a lot farther than people expect or I'm just funnier looking than I used to be or what. I'm tickling just over 400' on a great rip so it's not like I'm Eagle McGurthie over here. It's just weird that it's happening more frequently since DG is getting fairly known among the general public around here. I also had a guy jogging alongside the hole stop running to shout at me how awesome my roller was.
I remember getting some on holes that were tree heavy but not forests. I would do shots that would weave in and out of the trees and others would just stop playing to watch.
Now with the odd backpack I am using I get people staring at my bag, it is a Vertex Angler Backpack I modified for use as a disc golf backpack, I wanted a seat on a bag but I was not going to pay for a Gorilla Boy Simian and the knock off is too expensive to really make me want to try it, maybe if the Knock off was in the $120-$130 range then I might but they are $160. I was looking for a X style folding stool that was tall enough to use with a backpack, was going to get the Superhero Pack H2O model to use with the chair but I could not find a Stool Tall eoungh. Then came across what I am using now.
