Wayward plastic at Trojan

[zippyboy]

An open letter to all huckers -

To keep things simple, can this thread be the ONLY thread for lost plastic at Trojan? It is always easier if there is only one place to have to look for finding updated info as to what has gone missing. Thanks.

[Micah]

might my name be added to the trojan nation? I don't get out there much but am certainly part of the lore that is Trojan.

[zippyboy]

You are right, but one of the caveats is that you wander up and throw a round with a couple of us, and have a beer or two with us (or your beverage of choice). Other than that, you're totally in!

As an aside, thanks for all that you have done to get the plastic from the murky depths of Trojan. You are a man among men, sir.

[brillo]

During the TrojaNation tag fest I threw my White Champ Starfire into the drink on hole 8 20 feet short of the pin out in the middle:slapface:

[Scott]

I had a very busy day on Sunday. Lets see how good my memory is.

First round
Hole 10 - Fly Dye Z wasp. It floated for quite a while. Last spotted floating towards the temporary RCO teepad. Probably won't be found unless somebody goes SCUBA diving.

Hole 11 - Orange champion Orc. Just offshore near the first OAK tree that overhangs the water.

Hole 16 - JK Aviar Putter. In the weeds, to the left and probably 50-100 feet short of the basket. should be right near the edge, but I looked like crazy and didn't see it.

Second round
Hole 11 - Purple DX Orc. Should be right next to the Orc I lost in round 1.

Hole 12 - Yellow star Destroyer /w bio hazard dye. 50 -100 feet short of the pin, probably about 30 feet out. Buh-bye.

Hole 12 - Black star Destroyer (white on bottom) - 100 feet short of the pin, and right off shore. It looked like it hit the shore and rolled in.

Third round
Hole 8 - Red star Teerex (pink on bottom) - Just off the shore about 150 feet past the bridge.

Geez... I didn't realize the damage was so bad until I typed it out. Now I'm depressed. :explode:

[Sam]

I got a call last night from Brian - the guy who used to sell discs he found. Seems he pulled out 74 discs yesterday or the day before and is busy calling people. He didn't realize it was me. I told him to keep the disc or give it away.

[Ol' Bob]

The idea of that guy having my contact info gives me the creeps.:eek:

[Scott]

The idea of that guy having my contact info gives me the creeps.:eek:
Like we all don't know where to find you anyways?

[Sam]

Brian doesn't, I don't think. Anyway, he is banned from up there. :D

[Ol' Bob]

Like we all don't know where to find you anyways?

He may think we're hiding out immigrants.

Brian doesn't, I don't think.

He may have found my Sidewinder from years ago.

[snap7times]

hey, any way to convince brian to post the discs on this forum??? I want to see the list... blame my ears but i'm a visual type of guy...

[Ol' Bob]

...but i'm a visual type of guy...

I hear that.

Hey Snap, I just heard one of the DDGAs is maybe having a tourney here soon. Are you going to be in on that?

[Eric Olson]

Played a couple rds at Trojan yesterday. This time of year it is hands down the most scenic course in the state. There were a couple of casualties on hole 8 in the canal between 8 and 11. White DX Orc belonging to Dan and a white Star FL that belongs to Matt. Matt also had an orange Z Buzz roll off the edge of the fairway on 11 on our previous trip there.

I believe all three discs have contact info.

I'd be listing the ones I've thrown in the water as well, but I'd rather get wet than leave a soldier behind.

[Chef]

I love floater discs :)

[dan]

I'd be listing the ones I've thrown in the water as well, but I'd rather get wet than leave a soldier behind.
Eric, while I respect your enthusiasm to strip naked and dive into the Trojan waters, that one was right in the f-ing middle of the canal. I consider it long gone.

On an unrelated subject, if anyone is interested in seeing naked pictures of Eric swimming at Trojan, I have a few on my cell phone. :puke:

[Chef]

11-1-08: Lost a floater disk at hole 12 at trojan. Last saw it in the middle of the lake on the left side of the bridge. It is yellow and has my info on it.

[snap7times]

hey bob, sorry i didnt read this thread earlier... moving to cali and working full time and all that made me forget this website for a moment. I didnt go to the mudd for the WDDGA *washington deaf disc golf association* tournament cuz of willamette open. I heard the mudd was awesome that weekend but I had to make a choice based on my fiance wanting to play with more women and that means hearing pdga tournament... I hope to come up there sometime in the future...

Now has brian everrrr posted a list for viewing pleasure? or can anyone do me a huge favor and ask brian if he has any discs that have robin johnson or nathan boyes names on it? Not in the mood to call him up and have him say "relay, no i aint interested in buying anything from any deaf people... discs? oh yeah i got a few, 10 dollars each.... oh it has your name on it? oh yes, that will be 12 dollars then... " you know where i am going with that... lol..

[George A.]

i really suck lost my blue 1st run star destroyer today on hole 12 it was floating in the middle name and number on it really hopping to get this one back reword if returned :chug:

[Brody Cannon]

I played well yesterday but still managed to lose 4 discs.
Blue champion valkyrie on hole 12
Yellow champion beast on hole 12
Green champion teebird on hole 11
Blue champion orc on hole 8

I also found a few:
175 Green star destroyer (Eric ?)
171 green star stamp destroyer (Sassalicious)
pinkish gazelle? (KT Paplow)

I will bring all the discs with me to next team disc golf

[Celeste]

I was a complete Shank master yesterday. A majority of my bag is in that freakin pond. I think they all have my name on them except my new pink festivus monarch.


150 orange star valk
167 green champ orc
158 blue monarch
159 pink festivus monarch no name


Edit: I think there's more in there but I think they have my name and I don't want to inventory my bag. It's just too sad.

[Susie Sunshine]

I've got a few out there as well.

Hole 6, I believe - a 150 Blue DX Starfire and a Pink 165 DX Valkyrie
Hole 8, fairway drive went left of the basket in the water (looked like it was close to the edge) - a 150 Yellow DX Destroyer

Eric has a Champ Beast and Champ Valkyrie in the water between holes 8 and 10. He's got a Teebird out there somewhere too but I don't know which hole.

[jevon]

I have a 169 star destroyer and a 174 z cyclone in the channel on hole 8, both are orange. Then I got me a new yellow star destroyer at lunch that I immediately shanked on hole 1, over the road and into the ivy. Went back to look for it before leaving the park and still no luck. :slapface:

[rob smith]

bad day for me also
hole 6 lt. blue champ. teerex w/lds stamp
hole 8 yellow cro
hole 10 white roc
hole 11 yellow champ sidewider w/ huklab stamp
hole 12 lt. blue champ. destroyer w/ beaver state fling stamp
name and # should be on all.

[Kate-Lar]

Brody, I'm so excited that you found that disc. Of the 3 I lost out there yesterday, that was the one I was NOT SUPPOSED TO LOSE! It's so old, it's pre-Wilson. I'll be happy to pick it up from you at Milo!
- KT

[Sausage Fingers]

Brody is a stud. He totally rescued my WOX Destroyer from the water on hole 1.:cheerleader::cheerleader:

But the losses were high for me, even though I pulled my Tracker and my Firebird from the water.
Hole 6 claimed my Champion Sidewinder. Tin cup shot after the Tracker went in.
Hole 8 stole my Pro Orc and Pro Wraith. Another Tin cup moment on a different round.
Hole 12 took my FLX Surge, pin high 25-30 feet out.

All in all 7 in the drink and 4 lost isn't too bad. It's the 7 stupid throws I'd like to have back.:pirate:

[zippyboy]

Thanks for posting these all in one spot. It makes it much easier for me to print out and take with me. If we find any of these, you will get a call from one of us!

[Darr]

Hole 6: 1 DX Cobra /1 Pro Leopard 150
Hole 12: 07 CFR Wraith
Hole 13: 11x KC Pro ROC :bricks::bricks:
I could see the ROC about 20 feet short of the basket but couldn't get it out
This was my fourth round at Trojan and the first time I lost a disc.Thanks in advance!

[Eric Olson]

Hole 8: DX Orc - pink - Dan

[Tim]

Since Trojan probably has the most lost discs, and Mitch requested all posts be in one thread, I've gone ahead and stickied this one so people can find it easily.

[Ol' Bob]

Since Trojan probably has the most lost discs...

The claim to fame! :cheerleader::trophy::cheerleader:








:biggrin2:

[Bluedisc]

Darkish blue (duh) Star Destroyer, 2 feet off the hole 6 ledge, pin deep from the tee. Marked only with the initials JM. One more skip and it was in bounds....so close, yet so far away...:puke:

[Brian]

I did not pick up a destroyer on my last trip sorry. it was early last week .. so if it went in after that then it will be on the next trip.

[zippyboy]

Since Trojan probably has the most lost discs, and Mitch requested all posts be in one thread, I've gone ahead and stickied this one so people can find it easily.

Woo hoo! Thanks Tim! :trophy:

[NWDiscer]

Trojan only got 1 from me this weekend it it was on the Peninsula hole. A old warped CE Eagle faded white with a yellowish rim crossed over the the corner that juts outs and splashed in the middle.......
faded name and # on it

[zippyboy]

So, late last night, I received a phone call from a number my cell phone didn't know, from an area code I wasn't familiar with. The guy asks if I am Mitch. Of course, I tell him that I am. He goes on to say that he pulled a disc of mine out of the river. Awesome. Turns out it was a green FLX Surge. He tells me he pulled it from the Brady course. I thought he meant the course near my in-laws house near Brady, WA. No, actually, he meant the course at Brady Park - in TEXAS! :shocked:

The disc he had was the very first disc I ever won in a tourney (Gawain's last Ice Bowl). I threw it at Trojan on hole 10, thinking that I couldn't possibly flip a Surge. Apparently I was wrong, as the disc landed itself in the middle of the pond. Of the many discs I have lost out there, that was one of only two that I have ever really wanted back. I let the guy keep it, as it sounds like he belongs to a group of huckers down there that are similar to the 'Nation - they rigged a rake to help them pull discs out of the river, and then they call back the people who lost them.

Though there is no way I can accurately pin this on Brian, it seems like he would be the most likely culprit in my disc somehow ending up in Texas. However, whoever was responsible for that, thanks, ass. :mad:

~Z

I will now resume trying to stay out of local disc politics...

[JMan]

Wild. Murry just got a surge of mine out of the pond at Dabney, which is interesting considering I lost in the pond off hole 12 at Trojan ... go figure.

[Ol' Bob]

I know, the Dabney pond and that Texas river are connected to the cooling ponds by underground streams!

[zippyboy]

Found plastic: I will be calling about these, too...

Champion Plastic disc - totally blank top, some faded stars written in sharpie on the back. If this might be yours, PM me on here and we can discuss it.

Dave Swanda's Champion Plastic disc.

Yellow Champion Viking with two numbers on it, and only one name.

Star dyed TeeBird belonging to Eric.

A DX Roc belonging to Alex.

And a HukLab Champion Beast, belonging to Patrick.

Calls will be made.

~Z

(thankfully none of these discs ended up in Texas...)

[Ol' Bob]

Dave Swanda's Champion Plastic disc.

Is it orange? Could be the one he used to ace #3 at Mud.

Blarnystoner will know what to do with that one.

[zippyboy]

Throw it back in? :laughing:

Sorry.

[snap7times]

champion viking, possibly mine?

I made no secret of the fact that 3 of us went to the swamp all last year. I was the only 1 of the three that actually returned the portion of discs I found. The other 2 traded off discs to whomever and never called on the discs. I took the heat and hate, and yet returned dozens of discs, they get no hate and they kept all their discs. Makes sense. maybe you can take me off the list of people who stole your discs. Only at the very beginning did I not call on discs.. and even then I went back and called on all of the ones I didn't cross names out on.

*EDIT*

I might consider letting you know who they are as well, I have been very grievously dissed by both of them so I have no reason to protect them. message me I might reply back if I am feeling particularly vengeful.

[snap7times]

If they have any discs with "snap" or "robinhood" or the likes, yeah send me a PM... and for those who lost discs at the memorial and see your name on the lost and found list at spinners on the green website, let me know ASAP! I already am getting brody cannon, kent smothers, and sean phillips discs..

[NWDiscer]

No worries. I told the guy in Texas to keep the disc. Like I said, it is only one of two (of the many) that I have lost out at Trojan that I would have liked to have back. I was merely venting....

OK rough day prepping for RCO. :pullhair::headbang::bricks:

Hole 8 just behind the basket about 20 feet out. White Warlock Name and Number on inside rim

Hole 9: floating out in the water, purple HUk Lab Boss Name and number inside rim. That one is my go to driver so if anyone sees it and reaches it i would really like it back:chug:

Thanks Donnie

[zippyboy]

Went out fishing for plastic over the weekend, but came up totally empty-handed. Its been quite some time since I went out there looking for plastic, only to find none. Maybe other entities have been fishing for plastic as well. I will continue to look (and call when I find them)...

~Z

[Eric Olson]

Maybe other entities have been fishing for plastic as well. I've gotten calls back on three discs from two different people from in the water in the last week and a half, so I'd say that's the case. Gotta love the warm weather.

Also I was there a couple days ago, and in the afternoon with the sun up high, you could see the bottom of the lake in a lot of places. I had a roc go in on 11 and got it back my second round after the muck settled down and the water was clear enough to see the disc 6 ft offshore and under 3 ft of water.

We took a friend of mine who doesn't golf much, and he came back missing 4 discs. Only one in the drink though!

[Brian]

Well, I found 50 more discs. I have called everyone that had a name on it. The rest I kept. If you do not want to lose a disc you should put your name(and especially a phone number/email) on it. A good portion of the discs I found had numbers and I have already returned a few.

[all2common]

Did any of the have the following symbol on them? http://images-cdn01.associatedcontent.com/image/A2771/27719/300_27719.jpg

[all2common]

Oh, and Ashley was pretty stoked that you pulled one of her discs out right about the time we were finishing up on 11. That was pretty nice of you.

[Pizzel]

Hole 13: Red E-Element with a Huklab stamp...went out just of the bank pin deep.

[Brian]

Oh, and Ashley was pretty stoked that you pulled one of her discs out right about the time we were finishing up on 11. That was pretty nice of you.


Well, no I didn't find any with that sign on it this trip. However I did find one with the sign a while ago. It said Hiatt and has a number. I called on it and then for some reason took it out of the return pile. That could have been because no one called me back or possibly someone told me to keep it. Not sure. It was just a DK Roc yellow. I have it in my grubby little hand right now. If that is yours and you want it now, let me know.

Also I looked for her other disc for a while and just couldn't find it. I actually got chased out of the swamp by a muskrat/nutria/man-eating otter, or whatever it is. Not sure if it was a biter, but I wasn't going to stick around to find out either. It was about 10 feet from me and headed straight at me. Not fun.


EDIT: If it is OK with everyone, I will just edit my responses to individual discs into this one post so we don't keep adding more to this topic. 3 pages is already enough for people to look through.

Sorry no Element at all. I didn't get to stay for very long. I got there late and only really hit 2 holes. Maybe next time though.

[all2common]

That's me...Hiatt. At any rate, go ahead and keep that one. It may have my old number on it. We were taking bets before we ran into you if that otter was going whoop up on a cocker spaniel that was in the water by hole 10. The owners pulled it out of the water before any damage was incurred.

[Brian]

ahh nice, I have found other discs with your name on them. It may be your old number I guess. I will have to look through my discs and see what I can find. Maybe only 1 or 2 others though.

[all2common]

Thanks. I'd appreciate it.

[erp]

Hey Brian - Thanks again for pulling the two that my friend Trey and I had dumped in for us - far too kind of you!

And I saw that thing that chased you out of the water, but I I thought it was a mastodon!

[Brian]

Well it was perhaps the largest swamp rodent alive today. And the fangs *shudder*

Did i see you guys pop another disc in the water as I was packing up and already had my wetsuit off?

[jevon]

Hi Brian. I got your message about my Cyclone that you found. While it was one of my first dyes, first non-Lightning disc and the last of my dyed discs for me to lose, you can keep it. I tried laying up with it on 8 after tossing my Star Destroyer into the drink and it didn't work out so well. It went straight, just not high enough to make it to the other bank...

Thanks for the call though!

You sure? I know those cool looking dyes are hard to come by. If you change your mind don't be shy, just let me know and I can get it back to you.

:headbang::headbang::headbang::headbang::headbang: :headbang::headbang:
Today on hole #14 I lost TWO discs! The first one was my 11x KC PRO ROC to the left of the basket in the TALL stuff. The second one was just foolish :pullhair: I re-teed and put my KC Champion Glow ROC in the drink! It should be about 20 feet out in the water a little left of the basket. I got in the water fully clothed and searched for about fifteen minutes to no avail. HELP!!!
REWARD!! It really sucked because I was -1 at that point. :bricks:

[chris7graham]

here we go hole 6 3/4 way down 20 feet out green star firebird 06 or. series stamp on it. next hole 10 red rpro dart next to basket 2 feet out in water ty if someone finds it cool

[DanZ]

I lost a couple of discs out there a few weeks ago. One was a pink Destroyer with a Calapolla Classic 08' stamp on it. My name's on both of them.

Thanks,
Dan Z

[zippyboy]

I hope to make it out there soon. If I see anything, calls will be made.

[erp]

Yes, you did - although it was my buddy's disc and I don't recall what it was...right after he said something about his bag being too heavy...


Well it was perhaps the largest swamp rodent alive today. And the fangs *shudder*

[Eric Olson]

This sunday I lost an orange dx roc on 13 in the giant blackberry tangle, right of the fairway. Windy! Not the first roc I've lost in there.:nono:

Also that day, my friend Matt lost an orange star FL in the water on 7, somewhere between the overhanging tree and the bench.

[Brian]

I will be back out soon as well. There were several holes I missed and even though there are rodents the size of greyhounds (the buses not the dogs), I still enjoy the feel of a disc under foot and the smell of swamp that follows me around for a week or so afterwards.

Dang. I won't be able to make that round. My beloved, her son, and I are all playing in the Bad Monkey this weekend. I will get to meet up with you out there one of these days... Keep me posted, and I will try and work something out in the future.

[Brian]

Well, i will go collect discs and we can shoot a round another time :)

I will certainly try. I know I would cry if I lost that disc :waaah:

That is one of the holes I was unable to get to last time so I will be hitting that one for sure.

I notice your Marley avatar .. I just found the only reggae guy I have liked since Bob died. Tarrus Riley .. I have listened to his stuff on youtube it is really chill. Just makes you feel good. if you haven't already you should check him out.

[killa]

on Sunday 6/28...

FOUND on hole 14: white Huk Lab roc, name on bottom says Milpond. I called the number a couple times but they kept rejecting my call coming from an out-of-state area code. left msg.

LOST on hole 7: orange star TL, fluffed into lake maybe 3/4+ of the way down, 10-15 ft out. has name & number on it. I also lost discs on 5 and 6 but don't care too much about getting those back.

I will be coming back down for RCO... really hope someone has been able to retrieve that TL by then!

[zippyboy]

10 - 15 feet out sounds more like a job for Brian than it would be for me. However, if I come across that TL, I will let you know.

Lost - neon orange Buzzz on hole 11 between the two annoying trees (they over hang the water) it is between 5 and 10 feet out.

It will most likely be a job for Brian since Zippyboy was with me and we could not see it at all.

[Brian]

Sorry guys, I was unable to make it out there last Sunday. I will try very hard to get out there this Sunday though.

[Sam]

FOUND on hole 14: white Huk Lab roc, name on bottom says Milpond. I called the number a couple times but they kept rejecting my call coming from an out-of-state area code. left msg.

I will be coming back down for RCO... really hope someone has been able to retrieve that TL by then!

Definitely bring it to the RCO. I believe Dustin is playing in the Pro pool. If not, many people will be there who know him. :cheers:

[TreeLove]

Neon Green FLX Buzzz about 5 feet off basket 11. Would love to get this go-to midrange back!

[Ol' Bob]

FLX Buzzzes are the total bomb. I have four in my bag and don't want to give up any of 'em.

[Scott]

Only made one sacrifice at Trojan this morning.

Hole 11, almost pin high. Between the last tree on the fairway and the basket, probably a little closer to the tree. Just off the shore.

Yellow Star Max, custom dyed.

Name and number are on the back.

[Amber]

Lots of discs lost today at Trojan! Only 1 we were unable to find. 172 Yellow Pro Destroyer with the the Huk Lab Blowfly. Hole 5, wind took it up and over the first area of crap on the right.

Found (while looking for the Pro Destroyer) 175 Yellow Star Valkyrie. I believe the name was Rick Moon. It's still in my trunk and I am being too lazy to go get it.

Also, last time we were out there I lost a Yellow Millennium JLS. Not sure on weight, or exact name of their plastic. Which ever one is just like Pro plastic. Hole 8 about 3 ft short of the bank (approximately 25 ft beyond that tree on the corner of the path). Don't know that that makes sense but what ever. Would love this disc back.

Thanks,

Amber & Crist

[Brian]

Well, I found me a fancy Champion Roc off hole 14! it took me a long time but I figured if it is there I will find it .. and I did!

I found like 50-60 discs. I will be cleaning them off tonight and calling during the week next week.

Some of the names I recognized.

Over the hill Bob
Ken Gilmore
Brody Canon
Brody Miller

and many more, I just haven't seen the bottoms yet. need to clean them. I only went to hole 11ish area, 12, 13, 14 .. didn't make it to 5-6-7 area this time.

[Sam]

Any chance there was a green Gazelle in that group, Brian? I'll say something even better for your signature if you have that sucker...

Holy crap, Darr is going to be happy. Well done. :cheers:

[Brian]

Any chance there was a green Gazelle in that group, Brian? I'll say something even better for your signature if you have that sucker...

yeah dude I have a green KC pro gazelle with your name i on it .. couldn't read the name til I cleaned it off.

[Darr]

Well, I found me a fancy Champion Roc off hole 14! it took me a long time but I figured if it is there I will find it .. and I did!


Good looking (or should I say feeling) out!
I look forward to hearing from you, thanks Brian!!

[George A.]

Darr we should do a mass pick up :yay:

[Sam]

Thank you, Brian! Now... what do you want me to say for your signature? Seriously, though... name your reward and you shall have it.

[Brian]

Just the usual, a round of golf at like Pier or something .. or a lottery ticket :)

or both!

[zippyboy]

I do hope you guys meet up a Pier for a round. I also hope for a photo of the two of you together - similar to the photo of Jub and Sam together...

[Sam]

Let's do both. I am not much of a gambler... do you mean scratcher or a quick-pick or... ?

Any chance we can do that this week? I would love to throw that Gazelle this coming weekend - though not on hole 14 at Trojan. :whistler: It was in the water, wasn't it? I thought it was going to smack chains but the second throw was a touch shorter and found in the reeds by the bank.

[Ms Thing]

By any chance is there a neon orange Buzzz in there? The name on it would be Amy Parks, you can call me or Zippyboy.

[Sam]

I did find an Orange buzz but I think the name on it is like Ashley or Amber. I will check tonight and make calls to people.

[Sausage Fingers]

I lost a faded white MRV on hole 14 recently. But it didn't have my contact info on the back, it had Theo Pozzy's name and number on it.

Last year he donated that disc to the RCO fundraiser pile and I bought it and loved it. You didn't happen to find that one did you? It should've been right next to Sam's disc as it had the same flight, just missing the basket high never to be seen again...

Also we will be having this year's RCO out there again this weekend so I am sure that plenty of players would be glad to see you out there retrieving plastic. If you do head out, please stop by Tournament Central so that I may thank you for your work getting plastic out of the water.:pirate:

I will be waiting. I just lost it Thursday so it is most likely mine (and Amber did not mention losing a Buzzz). If it is it will be the first disc that anyone has returned to me, I have watched people steal my discs from the water before i could get there but I have never actually had someone give one back.

Dang it. Well lets hope you find it next time.

[Brian]

Well some people do go in there just to retrieve their discs and they pull out multiple other discs. I know for a fact they don't all return them. i came across a group when I was there yesterday and they had lost a disc there and said they pulled out 7 others. They were talking about where they were going to use them .. which leads me to believe they were not going to return them. That same story happens everyday, someone loses one and pulls 7 more out. But I will try to find yours . I might show up for the RCO .. who knows.

Any chance you find a Yellow/orange tie-die Buzzz on 13 in the water about pin high? How about a red Breeze middle of lagoon 20' past pin? I sank them weekend before last (see earlier post).

Thanks Brian!

[Brian]

No sorry, I only found one Buzzz and it is orange and says Ashley on it. I never even heard of a Breeze either. Is that Discraft disc?

[JMan]

Yes the Breeze is Discraft, it's also known as "The Larson"

[Brian]

I thought I had found just about every disc. I even found a T-bone out there. I mean for reals .. who uses a T-bone

[all2common]

I am going to be at either pier or Dabney today after work so if anyone wants to grab their disc then, just let me know.

[Carie CPink]

Brian- Many thanks for the safe return of my Star Destroyer. My game thanks you greatly!

[cwcurry]

I lost a white star teebird on hole 10 a few days ago, my first round at Trojan. In my attempts to avoid the large pond, I added a couple % to the throw. To my shock and horror I watched my disc fly straight past, onto the highway, where it took a sizeable skip just behind a northbound SUV.

When I went to recover the disc, lo and behold, another giant pond on the other side of the highway. You never can win.

[Bluedisc]

All the phone numbers have been called and messages have been left.:cop: These will be dropped off at Pier's Tourney Central on Friday (for check in).

Name on disc, type of disc
Tim Price, yellow/green CE Leopard
Jordan, white ST (?) with 2009 WBDW stamp
Patrick, pink CH Beast
"MBG", white ESP Buzz
Ryan, orange DX Roc
Sean Kollmorgen, blue DX Banshee

[Brian]

Let's do both. I am not much of a gambler... do you mean scratcher or a quick-pick or... ?

wow somehow I missed the last 2 posts on page 5 so I never replied to this .. sure we can play this week. Name your course, scratch-its are the best because I can win instantly!

[Sam]

What are you up to Thursday evening? I am planning on a round at Pier. About 5:45-6:00?

[Brian]

yeah that works for me.

[Sam]

Sweet. See you there. Will have the good wife with me as well as a good friend. Should be a good foursome. :cheers:

[Brian]

ahhh sounds fun. I'm normally under there, last night I got a 7-8 over .. it was horrible. I just hit every tree and fell completely apart. Hopefully Thursday I will fare better.

[k2trcs]

Yellow DX Roc, pond behind #2 basket
Red DX Aviar "ROSE CITY OPEN 2006" stamp left into water 80' shy of basket, hole 12.

[zippyboy]

Hey all, thanks for a great site and forum, seems like tons of good info on here! My first post :biggrin2:


---
It's a damp, cool morning at Trojan Park. The wind is twisting through the course with bold, sporadic gusts. I approach the tee-pad at hole #9 thoughtfully. I feel calm, not exactly confident, but happy to have saved a series of near disasters on #8. A lone fisherman sits on the opposite shore of the lagoon, far to my right, just at the spot where the bank begins to curve towards the hole. He is wrapped in a thick, greasy flannel, his hat pulled low over his eyes. He can see me I think, but he's stoic, solid, fishing...

The angler is sitting directly under the flight path of a back-hand bomber, so I opt to play it safe. I decide on a fore-hand shot with my green Z-Flick. I visualize the shot gliding straight out from the tee, with a floaty turn to the right, clearing the trees and landing near the basket. I step onto the tee pad, and draw a deep breath, gripping the disc tightly. As it leaves my hands, a sickening feeling of terror sweeps through my gut. I can feel the wind gust suddenly. Small troughing waves swell up in the lagoon, churning against the banks, sending the ducks shrieking into the woods. My disc lurches and staggers through the winds, first to the left, then to the right, and all the while up, up, up...

I look at the fisherman, and he hasn't even flinched. I realize then, that he's seen this all before, and is in no danger. We've come to a silent agreement now, well aware that the disc is going into the water, and it does...
---

Hmmm, also lost a neon-yellowish, Buzz GT, in some tall grass in a secret location, but that's another story, for another time...

My discs usually have my e-mail on them, and maybe a little smiley face. Ok, thanks and have fun! :biggrin2:

This has my vote for post of the year candidate (do we have an award for that?). The style of writing reminds me of a local sports writer... :chinscratch:

[Ol' Bob]

He could have just said, "Durn it, ...skyed it."

[keys]

Thanks Brian for calling about my Eagle today. I am excited to get that baby back. I already made a spot for it in the bag.

[Brian]

Thanks Brian for calling about my Eagle today. I am excited to get that baby back. I already made a spot for it in the bag.

I was gone when we talked so I didn't get to put it in the proper pile right away. Did you say you wanted to pick it up at RCO on Saturday or?

[Sam]

Still on for this evening, yeah Brian?

[Brian]

I am .. in preparation I decided to see if I could get some distance on my drive. So I took 69 discs out to a park and threw them full force to try and improve my snap, not once, but twice. I just can't seem to get past 350ft on a regular basis. But I wake up and every muscle on the right side of my body feels like it is locked up. I am sure I will be better by this evening though :)

[Sam]

Sounds good. D-Walk and Jamie and I will be there by 5:45 or so. See ya at tee 1. :cheers:

[Scott]

Sounds good. D-Walk and Jamie and I will be there by 5:45 or so. See ya at tee 1. :cheers:

Brian - do you think you could bring my Max to Jamie instead?
That way I could pick it up Saturday morning and still use it during the tournament.

Thanks!

[Brian]

Yeah, I will bring it with me tonight then :)

[Scott]

Yeah, I will bring it with me tonight then :)

Sweet.

Sam - do you think Jamie would mind being a disc courier?

[Sam]

I do not think that Jamie would mind that at all, Scott. Any others I can pick up?

[Darr]

I do not think that Jamie would mind that at all, Scott. Any others I can pick up?
Lonell, George, and I will be coming out but might not make it until 6:00 or so.

Any chance Brian could bring our discs and we could all tee then?

I wanna ROC!!!! :rockon::rockon::rockon:

[Sam]

Actually... I'll pick that one up for you, Pat. I'll see you Monday at Lunchtime, right? :whistler:

:laughing:

I think we'll tee about 6 so it's all good.

[Brian]

Guys, I am returning at least 30 discs so I am trying to keep them straight. Can you tell me which discs those would be that I would be bringing. I have Darr's Awesome Roc, I have Sam's Lime Gazelle and I have a pro destroyer for a guy named Billman. Anything else to return tonight?

[Brian]

I will be there at 5:30 to warm up on some putting.

uh yeah LOL .. that too. I forgot to put that in the post. I had it in my pile to go tonight though hehe

Bring my blue Eagle to RCO if you can.

[Sam]

Jamie has Scott's Max. She will have it with her bright and early tomorrow morning.

so if any of these discs that get brought out of the ponds happen to have a smiley face and a funky looking "S"... you know that "S" that the band Styx uses

they would have #'s on them

nope none in this batch. However it is easiest to have a phone number. if you don't like all the writing just put it on the inside of the rim. The problem is when I pull 60-100 discs out at a time, I can't remember everyone's code names. So I generally just call on the ones with numbers.

every disc i play with has my home # on it that has not changed in 8 years along with my pdga #

thanx anyway

[E-ROC]

I just wanted to send out a huge thank you to Brian for his disc diving efforts. I was so impressed to see disc after disc recovered as soon as they were thrown in the drink. Cheers to you Brian, you are the man!!!!

[Scott]

Agreed. Watching the dude pull disc after disc out of the muck was like watching a magician practicing his craft.

Well done! :cheers:

[Brian]

Apparently pulling junk out of a swamp is my calling! Perhaps I should move down south and catch catfish with my barehands?

[Scott]

I managed to play two rounds at Trojan yesterday and didn't lose a thing in the water (yeah, I stuck around and played a second round after the tournament was over. I had so much fun I wasn't ready to go home), but I did lose one in the brush during warm-ups in the morning. Hole 16, on the left. Went in really early. There are two decent sized trees about 100' up the fairway; the disc went in just to the left of the first one. It was fairly hot, so it probably went in a ways. I looked for a few minutes right away, and then for a little bit longer later that day.

If you happen to be in the area looking for it, walk a few extra feet towards the water and you'll see a HUGE beaver lodge; probabably about three feet tall and 8-10' diameter. Nice!

By the way, the disc is a yellow champion orc with a Kokopelli (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kokopelli) dye.

[Jet]

Lost Orange TeeBird in pond (I think on hole 11 - near bank, three-quarters down fairway). Name and number on inside rim.

[Scott]

It was pulled out of the lake and taken to tourney central. I picked it up, hoping to save you the trouble of looking through that giant pile, but then I didn't see you for the rest of the day. It's in my car. Are you going to be at TT this week?

I'm planning to be at TT. Thanks for picking up the disc.

[erp]

Anyone know the whereabouts of a max-weight champion first run boss with rainbow stamp - clearly marked with Trey Morgan and his contact details?

It was recovered and returned to the pile of lost discs, but somehow evaporated before Trey could get a hold of it.

No questions asked on safe return...

[Brian]

There were a couple discs that vanished from the pile .. including one for Carrie Coleman. I think someone came through looking for discs in good shape. I am not happy about that. I hope all goes well and it was only someone pulling it out for the owners .. but why would they do that when the owners were there? I am not stoked on this. I also had an unmarked star boss vanish from my pile on the shore when I was in the water on Saturday. Those are just the ones I remember, I can't keep track of what-all was pulled out so I have no idea if others were nabbed also.

[T-what?]

Lost on saturday at trojan, Red Element on hole 6(I marked the spot with a stick hoping to come back to it...:slapface:)& a Purple Boss with big letters "BENDY II" written on it on hole 12 2nd shot. Both should have my name and number on them.

I grabbed the one for Carie and gave it to her when I got back to Pier. Sorry for the confusion.:pirate:

[TreeLove]

I know that Carie's red candy disc with protoype "Discraft" stamp was pulled to be returned to her personally because she was not in the same pool. Maybe she will post here to confirm she received it. Perhaps the Star Boss owner pulled his/her own disc from your found stack (although I believe it is a violation of PDGA rule to use or even carry an unmarked disc) on the shore, but s/he should have let you know.

Say Brian, did you happen to find ANOTHER neon lime green FLX Buzzz in the canal off hole 8 pin high? Thanks for returning the first one, don't ask why I dunked another, because I don't know! Did the tournament give you a gift in thanks for your massive contribution? I hope they did, and that it was something very cool!

[Swampthing]

Did the tournament give you a gift in thanks for your massive contribution? I hope they did, and that it was something very cool![/QUOTE]

No kidding... I saw his legs afterwards and they were not pretty, red and infected with about 30-40 scratches, along with unpleasant looking bruising. I hope you have a rascal to ride around on while you recover... :shocked:

[Brian]

I would say they gave me some VERY cool stuff! Sam really came through with a shocker. He talked to a bunch of people I had retrieved discs for and they gathered enough to buy me a full color fund raiser disc!!!! It is so sweet I am going to snuggle with it at bed time. We may even spoon .. not sure.

Yeah I got pretty messed up by those long grass patches. The thing is I thought the grass was just irritating my skin. but in fact it was tearing me to shreds. I have dozens and dozens of slices all up and down my legs from those horrible grass blades. The second day there was way better, because I knew not to go through the long grass LOL. It was my fault for not knowing.

I just got done washing all the 60+ discs I took home. Now tomorrow I will be calling on as many as I can and then also the next day as well. There were some with just a name and no number so i will post a bunch on here to see if anyone knows them.

[Carie CPink]

I got my disc back! It was a sweet disc and I appreciate that Jordan grabbed it for me...though, I was sweating it out when it wasn't on the tournament table Sunday. Did I mention how awesome that disc was? JPink was thrilled that it was found.

[Brian]

Yeah it was a nice disc, I can't remember what it was but it looked cool and was like new.

[Brian]

Ok, I finally got everyone's discs all washed off and all the numbers called. There were a few discs with disc-onnected #'s so I thought I would post them here. if you want them back let me know, or I will donate them to newbs.


1 marker disc with a sticker of a bulldog on it.

Old beat up CHeetah with the name Travis White on it

Blue TeeBird with Wes Hansens (my biggest fan!) PDGA # on it

FLX Surge with a number and the name Jordan on it. I have called the number multiple times and it just rings and rings no answering machine. not sure if it is the Sausage Fingers or someone else?

White Huk Lab Roc with Milponds name on it, the number didn't work

Discraft Flash with Wes Davis name no #

Star TL Yellow, with the name R. Manley

Yellow star wraith name danny Wortz on it number was out of service

Blue Star Valk with the name jerod on it number didn't work

Red TeeRex with the name Russ G on it, number not good

[Sausage Fingers]

FLX Surge with a number and the name Jordan on it. I have called the number multiple times and it just rings and rings no answering machine. not sure if it is the Sausage Fingers or someone else?

Yeah, I lost my last FLX Surge out at Trojan and my home number XXX-XXX-3120 is an on again off again proposition. I just can't seem to track down the short that goes out every time it rains...:pullhair:

I have been putting my cell phone number on my new discs. I can pick up a few scratch its for you. Where do you want to play a round? We can talk each others discs into the basket!

Come to think of it, I think I have lost both of my FLX Surges out at Trojan...:headbang:

I am going to be at Pier Thursday at 5:45. I am bringing back a pile of discs to people and then shooting a round. If you want to come with me that would be awesome, I could secretly record it and see who talks at the discs more :yay:

[snap7times]

still no "snap" or "robinhood"?

[Brian]

still no "snap" or "robinhood"?

nope sorry man. Lots of other people pull out like 5 or 6 discs at a time while they are looking for their own, so it is likely your discs got snatched up by someone else. I was pretty thorough in the hole 8/11 channel. I know there are more there, but I will get them later this summer.

[Sam]

We'll be there this evening, as well. I think I still owe ya some scratchers for getting my putter out of the pond right before round 2. :whistler:

[Brian]

Cool, I have a bunch of people coming to pick up discs, not sure how many are sticking around to shoot though. If it is just Jordan and I and you and Jaime we should go around together.

[Sam]

Sounds good to me. I think we might be having a friend joining us so we might break off into a smaller group. We'll see. :cheers:

[Greg_R]

Can someone who plays at Orchard doubles & who will be meeting Brian at Pier grab my Roc? I'll pick it up next week at Orchard dubs. It's a Tom Pierce Open Roc (was white, now it's ???). Thanks!

[Brian]

The one I have is Blue ..

[Eric Olson]

I will be there to pick up discs and golf. :cheers:

Brian, thanks again for returning the discs! Sorry I wasn't able to join you all for golf this time.

[Brian]

NP next time we can shoot a round :)

[Wes Hansen]

ANy chance you gave Wes' TBird to someone to return?
Appreciate the find. If you see anyone that will be at Lunchtime Monday you could give it to them and I'll get it Monday.
Was my number not on the disc?
One found- three to go!

Nope your number isn't on it. I can give it to someone just let me know who you want me to give it to.

[Eric Olson]

One found- three to go!If you can still keep count of the discs you've lost in the water you're in pretty good shape.

I have one still there from my first trip. I'm the most cowardly player to ever play there.

[Wes Hansen]

Been there twice. I think I lost four the first time I was there as well- and played just 10-11 holes
So- really one for eight found.

[Scott]

Found:

--
172g Star Destroyer- Hole #16, deep black-berry bush. Name is 'Jesse Elliot' and this one looks to have been buried for quite some time.

(I honestly don't know if this is really a Destroyer, white, flexy plastic, only marking is '172 SD' on the back, the front is original Innova star with four little stars around it- so maybe first run or prototype?? Threw this a few times, and it really feels like a special disc, so if anyone knows 'Jesse' please pass the word).


Does it say SD or DS? DS is Destroyer. I didn't find SD on Innova's list of abbreviations. (http://www.innovadiscs.com/discs/abbrev.html)
In any case, Jesse's old man is here occasionally. Hopefully he'll see this.
(If not, you can PM Citizen's Arrest).

[Sam]

Nope your number isn't on it. I can give it to someone just let me know who you want me to give it to.

Brian, you can give me Wes' disc and I will get it back to him next Monday. We'll be at Pier on Thursday night as usual.

[Brian]

kk, I put it in my scooter already, so it will be there. Now I just need to remember to get it to him.

I also have Georges discs. he hangs out with Darr a lot, but I can't seem to connect with him to get it back. It's in my scooter. I will be at Dabney tonight about 5:45 and then Pier on Thursday 5:45.

[Dr. Zaius]

RCO- hole 4, long water, eco green first run destroyer. :(
anyone finds it i'll give you, well, something.... :biggrin2:

[zippyboy]

Due to minute variations in wind patterns, thermal drafts, and unexpected new foliage growth, I managed to temporarily misplace my yellow Pro-D Force on hole #6. It was last seen skipping towards the shore, pin-high and about 30 feet out...

I actually decided to leave this disc behind, in order to work on my 'mental game', but an unusual series of events soon required me to enter the canal on #8 in my boxer shorts. Dripping wet and strangely invigorated, I decided the time was now ripe to return to #6- and while I wasn't able to find my Force, I did come across a few others.
---

Found:

Purple 172 Wraith- Bad Monkey Open stamp. Slightly mysterious as this disc is unmarked but for a lone PDGA # concealed on the inner-rim. Further research leads me to believe this once belonged to the legendary Edward Florance.

Clear 170 Boss- 'Rising sun over disc golf basket' dye job in red ink. Quite the unique and mysterious disc. The name appears to be 'Denny'- I left a voice-mail, but had to guess on a few digits as the phone # is quite faded.

Neon-green 171 Star Max- This disc was quite a mess- literally blackened with mud to the point of being unrecognizable. After I scrubbed it down, it is actually in great shape! The name is Bob, and the number has been mysteriously disconnected, with no further information available!

Prostyle Golf Discs HX-1- Not sure what to say about this one... An antique maybe? It is possibly the most unattractive disc I've ever seen, like a bad bruise on top of a rash, covered in mud. Name is J. Maloney, which sounds mysteriously familiar...

Colin, I do believe the green Star Max belongs to a friend of ours as well. Bob Wisecarver. Get ahold of me if you want to throw tomorrow afternoon.

[Jet]

Lost:

152 Orange Champion TeeBird (Name & Number on rim). In water on hole 12 about third of the way to the basket and about 6 ft from bank.

160's Red Champion Orc (Name & Number on rim). In water on hole 13 about 5 feet from bank and short of the basket.

Playing Trojan was fun today. :biggrin2:

Tell me that's not the one you just got back.

[Jet]

Tell me that's not the one you just got back.

Yes. :o I forgot that means it got lost 4 times since the RCO and I got it back 3 times.

There were other losses from today but I can't remember who all lost what and where.

[Ms Thing]

Scott, I think that orange TeeBird was one that Jason and I pulled out of the channel on 8 earlier today, too. Dang it, Jet! :biggrin2: - Mitch (logged into his wife's account, apparently).

that might be my roc. If it is mine it is yellow and has the Bad Monkey Open print stamped on it. If so let me know, if not take care.

This disc has no name or # and is practically brand new. The true owner should be able to identify this disc easily by it's color and stamp.

[ryanajanes]

my friends lost 4 discs yesterday at trojan

4.) hole 13, pink champion wraith. close to the bank on the right. name is jake rockwell.

[OkieinOR]

Any chance you find a Yellow/orange tie-die Buzzz on 13 in the water about pin high? How about a red Breeze middle of lagoon 20' past pin? I sank them weekend before last (see earlier post).

Thanks Brian!

Colin Walen found my tye-die buzzz. Thanks so much!! He is going to give it to Mitch F.

Thanks again, Colin, for retrieving and contacting me!

I just got a call yesterday - this was fished out of the pond last weekend. Nearly a year later, and it apparently still looks like new. :dancing::jumpspin::rockon::yay:

[Ms Thing]

Found a yellow Wraith early yesterday morning on hole #1- sort of wierd because this disc was just sitting out in the open, center of the fairway, just before the big trees guarding the hole. Says 'Rideout' on the rim...

It may have been the windiest morning I've ever played at Trojan, so perhaps it was blown down out of the tree over-night? Well let me know if this baby sounds familiar :D

I know that he is around and we have returned some discs to him, Zippyboy knows how to reach him if he does not post here.

[Ode]

probably mike rideout???

i lost a yellow dx leopard on the first water hole and a white dx roc on like hole 15? number on them is 253-691-9374 and if you find them keep them

[Ode]

i checked my messages from when i broke me phone, and it seems someone found my leopard. they said they only keep them for so long and will give them away after a while. well i guess you can just give it away now and save the storage space. (i bought both discs i lost specifically for trojan and specifically to loose so no biggie).

[emmarose]

Okay... so... foolishly threw my very most favorite disc of all time at Trojan yesterday... (wow, I adore that course despite losing two discs) ... it binged a tree about 3/4 of the way down the fairway on #11... it's only about 4 feet off the bank... but I murked up the water while trying to retrieve it and the water never cleared... of course has my name and # on it and anyone who finds it will be my new best friend! Tis a pinkish (very faded) 150g star valkyrie with a frizbee masters evolution stamp on it... very near and dear to my heart... I'll be out next sunday doing some fishing of my own...

That's too bad Emma, I remember that from yesterday, you were telling us (me and cefire) about that as you were leaving and we were just pulling up. We didn't find it unfortunately and we lost two discs each ourselves, nothing we cared about too much though.

thanks for the empathy... I have learned my lesson, when near the water, no matter how much faith I may have in my own skills... don't throw your favorite disc... however, me and pinkie have been together for so long, I feel confident somehow he'll come back to me (yes, my pink disc is totally a boy!).

That hole is evil. EVery disc I have lost on that hole (and there have been a few) have been on really nice and seeminly safe throws that took a giant skip, crazy roll, or wonky bounce off a tree.

seriously! deceptively simple and straightforward! it was a lovely little toss and then this radioactive tree jumped out of the pond and bitch slapped my disc down into the freakishly deep depths of that stinky murkishness... ah, well, now I know better... and maybe it was time for me and pinkie to move on, anyway... my game has advanced and grown quite a bit in the four years I've had that disc...

I'm planning to play this course in May when I come to Oregon (oregon virgin) for a DG trip and Beaver State visit. Should I bring backups of my entire bag I don't care about losing. I've seen videos and it looks awesome but there's so much water.

depends how good is your 250' straight game?

do you like throwing scary routes?


being a virgin to the course for TDG a couple years ago, i only lost 2 discs and 1 was a frikken 150' upshot :slapface:

it has a lot of water, but there are safe routes on every hole.......so extras would be good if you wanna huk extra shots/routes other wise throw it str8 and safe you will be good.

You can also just huk to your hearts content at Trojan and stop in to Disc Golf Depot on you way to Milo and re-stock your bag. :trophy:


:cheers:

[Chad_from_BC]

Haha. Stop and restock eh. I. I have 3-4 discs in my I consider replaceable with new ones. The others are too special/worked in. I'll probably bring back ups of all my favourite molds on the trip for holes with water that I'm not 100% of my skill on. That being said, if there's a hyzer line I can hit 275 every time. If it's a low straight shot I'm pretty much good to 225. Time will tell. I'm hoping my low straight game is at a consistant 300 feet by the trip.

[cefire]

Just played my first round at Trojan yesterday, fun times but I lost two discs. Problem throwing alts is that you usually don't know quite how they will fly.

Anyway, had both a beat Star Wraith and a Champ Coyote hyzer out on the first water hole (#6 I think) if anyone finds them, would be sweet to get at least the Coyote back. :)

[Ol' Bob]

I'll take the coward's par on six, thankyouverymuch.

[Chad_from_BC]

I'll take the coward's par on six, thankyouverymuch.

Lol. How much water do you need to clear.

[Ol' Bob]

Lol. How much water do you need to clear.

I have a chronic condition called, "decrepit old man arm." I've made that annie shot a few times and never plunked one there yet. With my best annie drive, I'm still looking at a low-percentage putt. Here's my deal> When I started playing the coward at Trojan, my scores dropped dramatically. I took that as a sign from Blinky the Three-Eyed Fish and I've never looked back. Someday I'm going to get a par round there.

On edit:
Managed to hit about 475 and keep it straight and 8-10 feet off the ground almost the whole way.

I can see we're talking about a different game here.

[Chad_from_BC]

Well maybe it was more like 12-15 feet, I dunno it seemed real low. Lol. If you're referencing my different quotes in distance from the two threads, I can't hit 475 all the time and it sure as hell isn't predictable as to where it's going to go hah

[Ol' Bob]

Well then, bring floating plastic and a small boat.

[emmarose]

Lol. How much water do you need to clear.

There is never a huge expanse of water to clear... I played it safe and comfortably made it over the water in most cases... #11 I hit an unexpected tree and #6 I was just too scared and didn't have enough faith in my annie... the deal is, this is not a beginner course, and it would be pushing it to call it an intermediate course... the water gets in your head and tightens you up and there are other well placed obstacles as well... next time I go out I'm just going to bring a bunch of old throw away eclipses and use those near the water if there's also tree obstacles until I learn the fairways and lines a little bit better... I would say your first time out, just for your head game, bring plenty of spare plastic.

peace threw disc golf,
emmarose

[Ol' Bob]

...this is not a beginner course...

Tell that to the core membership of TrojanNation and remember, life originally crawled out from the water.

[Chad_from_BC]

So hole 6 is a big anny or side arm I guess? Hmm. Might be taking the safe route on that myself. I just don't have enough faith in my sidearm right now. That being said our trip isn't for a while and I plan on working on it a bit.

[Ol' Bob]

Should be an easy sidey low hyzer flick for you. If I had a rotator cuff, I'd probably try that.

Funny: reaching for the mouse to post this, my shoulder popped.

[Scott]

On hole six you throw over water, probably about 200' There is water on the left, so if you don't throw rhbh hard enough, it will fade into water. Accuracy is important, as there is a big tree that overhangs the water and protects the shoreline; if you hit that tree you will drop straight down and be wet. There is a narrow fairway to the right, but it isn't a clear shot - there are a fair number of trees. While it's safer, it is by no means a guaranteed 3.

It's a pretty well designed golf hole. Definately a risk/reward shot.

... and that overhanging tree appears to have suffered a little bit this winter and is maybe overhanging more than it used to be... I don't know, tho, as I've only played it the one time...

After my one round out there I came away feeling like it's a really great course, very enjoyable... the flow is excellent, the scenery couldn't be better, starts easy... finishes easy, but you must have faith in your discs and your skills or else you will suffer and end up in the water... before your throw (and #6 is a perfect example) you have to really believe that you will make it over the water, if you throw to weak and doubtful you'll lose your favorite disc... ;)

[Adam Schneider]

the flow is excellent
Hmm, which Trojan were you playing?

[emmarose]

Hmm, which Trojan were you playing?

mmm... the one that you don't like the flow of, I guess?

I like how it went very circularly (I was a creative writing major, I can use words like that) around the water...

[sillybizz]

I played Trojan for the first time on Sunday with the map printed from online, there were a couple of long walks to the next hole, more than enough to confuse a first time player.

I guess there were a couple of longish walks... and now that I recall, dad and I did get a little bit confused on the back maybe between 12 and 13... but I guess the scenery and that groovy covered area were enough to keep me from minding too much... my home course, too, is a lot of walking... not long walk outs, but a good hike thru the woods, so I'm used to it I suppose...

[Scott]

It flows well in some places, but not others. Holes 2-8 are great, as is 10-12, and 14-18. There are huge walkouts to holes 9, 10, 13.

The beauty and feel of the course make walk outs not a big deal, in my eyes.

...yes... now that I'm remembering, we were a little unsure where to go for 9, too... and all the "false" teepads made it extra confusing (the little square pads of cement scattered all over the place)... regardless... I really liked the course... and I stand behind my liking of the flow, too... takes all kinds, right?

[Adam Schneider]

The worst flow is actually after #12.

[Scott]

The worst flow is actually after #12.

That's right. I keep forgetting that 13 has moved.

[Chad_from_BC]

There's a hole in a course near Vancouver (Canada) that when played in the touranment config of the course has some evil but easy water. The water is at about 300 and about 30 feet accross. There's also tress on both sides making the gap you need to hit about 30 feet wide. There's room to go over if you've got the 350 foot hyzer shot, but it needs to be pretty high when it coming down cause you can't really go too long either due to OB. Anyways, the point being. It's pretty easy to throw 340 and clear the water. But if you sketch yourself out you'll either go in the water or fall short and get a par. You just need to know you can hit it and have faith your disc what it's supposed to do (I throw a teebird there usually) and you can do it every time. Worry about the water and you'll end up in it.

[sillybizz]

It's pretty easy to throw 340 and clear the water.

:laughing:

Is that Canadian footage or something?

Just kidding buddy, it's just that a lot of us can't get to 340 feet. You are at a totally different level in disc golf than I. Maybe I'll have to drive up and take some lessons from you. :)

[Chad_from_BC]

Lol. My throw isn't that good. I can put it out striaght ish to 350 80% of the time. And on longer holes 450 is usually do able. But, you need to remember that our courses in my home town have almost no trees due to the pine beetle killing 75% of the trees on our course. Whe. It comes to the 300 foot tunnel shots I see in picutes of Oregon courses I'm more or less screwed.

[sillybizz]

The beauty and feel of the course make walk outs not a big deal, in my eyes.

But remember kids, discs in the pond at Trojan are like pennies in the wishing well - you get a wish every time you throw one in!

I wonder if there's something you could do to a disc temporarily that would help. Like ribboning up when there's too much snow to see your disc after it goes under.
