    Other info

    Waaaaay back in April 2008 was when I caught the bug. A newly hired co-worker of mine played and kept asking me to come out and try it. I kept puting it off because I never really like playing with Frisbees and I hate ball golf. So finally one day after work (I work 3rd shift so we played at 7am) I went to the course two minutes from my work with the co-worker and his brother. They brought along all their extra discs and let me just rip 'em for 10 mins or so, then we actually played a round. Needless to say I sucked, but I had so much fun. After I got home, I went to sleep for a few hours, woke up extra early while there was still sunlight, went out and bought an Innova Champion starter pack for me and the Innova DX starter pack for the gf. 30+ courses and 50+ discs later I'm still loving this damn game. Also, the co-worker hardly plays anymore, but I've become good friends with his brother and he is usually my golfing buddy.

    So I guess that's my DG story. To Joel, where ever you are, thanks man.

    Ben,
    My name is Matt English, I am interested in trading for your 161 champ orc. Let me know what you are looking for and we will get it done. I have lots of plastic to choose from, not listed in this forum. If you are looking for my feedback or some indication that I am an honest trader, look at discaroo.com username mnmenglish and check the feedback rating. Really interested in that piece of plastic.

    Thanks,
    Matt

    Greetings Ben,
    Terry's my name and I also live in the Milwaukee area. I posted an introduction when I first joined the site and one of the people to respond was klay from Colorado, he suggested I hit you up and maybe we could get together to throw a round or two. I forgot about dropping you a line until I saw your post about the ace race in Cleveland this past weekend, I was also up there (damn wind!). Anyways, I'm always lookin' for good people to throw with and was wondering if you'd be interested in throwin' sometime. I go pretty much every day late morning or early afternoon, and anytime on the weekends. Hit me up on here and we can arrange something or you can shoot me a text or call at 414-254-7388.
    Thanks and have a great day!
    Terry

    Yeah, the white markers are still there on some holes, but you should be able to play the regular tees. I'm currently discussing with LTC the possibility of getting concrete or rubber mats installed...they seem to be more in favor of rubber, but either one would be a tremendous benefit to the course! I'll post an update on the course's profile out here (and the MySpace and Facebook Pages) once we start making progress. I'm hoping to convince them to do some alt tees (both shorter and longer, depending on what we have room to do) as well. Let me know when you're coming up and I'll try to meet up out there...beats playing alone, as is my usual routine!

    Later.
