    Hilarious! I actually pulled my beat KC out and threw it the other day but it has truly been replaced by my Flow. I think part of my replacement reason was my propensity to lose Wraiths LOL.
    Nooo, I wasn't that close. Where I am should be safe. But, it really does seem like this area has always had issues. Even when you look at Limona, you can see sinkhole type action. The area surrounding me shouldn't be prone to it, but who the hell knows. thank you for asking Russ.
    They are hosting the South West Florida Open at NPC on Jan 26th which is usualy held at N FT Myers, cuz NFTM is still closed. The locals said that they aren't getting any help from the park and that the league is having to do all of the work on the redesign. So it could be a little while before it opens.
    Played the new Payne Park today. Baskets are in, but no concrete tees yet. Still fun. Simular layout to the ace race, but better. My dad moved into lakes of tuscany. Waved at Jason the other day, but still haven't thrown with him again. Been busy moving and stuff. It felt good to get out today!
    I played jacksonville and daytona beach yesterday, north port today. Not sure what is next.
    Just prereg. for the Ace Race at Payne Park! My 13 year old is also playing, it will be his 1st tourny!
    Not to hard to find Indigo. Hard to justify going over there just to play that course Would love to hit it again and a couple nearby Miami courses.
    Finaly played Indigo, the course in the middle of the everglades. It was kinda like pinebrook but with a little more length and diversity. It was storming up in Miami, so we didn't get to play there...yet! Also I decided to start reviewing again, so be kind!
    'Threw a league round @ NPC this morning. "White" version of the course (about 6 holes from the longs and/or to the longs). Dropped my bag tag # from 118 to 76! (I shot +11)! Rick not so good...+19:( One dude in our group shot +2 (best round today in league)
    Sounds like you had an awesome birthday round! We'll have to try and get together next weekend.
    Yea the Heavier archons especially start out a bit stable and take time to break in. I've been sticking with Sub-162 in Star Plastic and they flip right out of the box. Of course wind then becomes an element.

    That course looks pretty wild - I'm sure you'll tame it eventually. It looks like a Walk in the Park compared to The Sarge
    Im almost scared to throw them. Still keeping a 159 Starchon in the bag though but it takes a backseat to the Blizzard Katana which is RIDICULOUS. How do you like the Archon compared to the Wraith?
