Patrick? I don't know.. I have been noticing that you're using "creative" names for the Caddies.. is that normal? If so.. I am going to have to brain-storm with Lady Buzzz to see what we can come up for her other half.. ummmmm.. It is quite possible he might be "caddying" for two gals! (hint - hint - hint.. give him the trophy already!)

He might quite possibly win It will be up to you ladies to decide that. The caddies will not be deciding this one.

As for Caddie nicknames, I would encourage such behavior. Not sure if it's normal or not. I try to avoid normal behavior whenever possible (which seems to be daily.)

So yes, give him a name that he has to live with.

Your wife is a wise woman, George. That is why I am planning only on volunteering as needed. If they don't need me then I will stay away.

We are the cheerleaders and will be there to help things run smoothly while the women play. That is our jobs for this tourney. Nothing more, nothing less. It IS the Chick Flick, therefore, it for the chicks. The Cock Flock is there in only a minor supporting role.


The Chick Flick committee has planned everything. The Cock Flock Committee has only planned the caddie stuff and that only with the permission of the Chick Flick Committee.

So no worries, the greedy boys are only there to help.

Well said John. The Chick's do appreciate all of the Cock Flock's support.

Most girls wouldn't even be playing disc golf if the "GREEDY" boys hadn't shown it to them.

I'm on the same page as your wifey, George. It is about the women. If I forgot that my wife would . Then .

I just get to help entertain the men folk and make they have plenty to do to keep them out of trouble.

Default A silly question...

I've got, perhaps a silly question. My husband has started really getting into disc golf, and wants me to try. He thought the chick flick might be a good opportunity. However, I don't want to totally embarass myself. I can't throw a frisbee worth anything, and I'm even worse at disc golf. I tried a couple holes over at Greenway, and the best I could do, even on the short holes, was 8 shots. The others were around 10, and that didn't even count the ones where my finger got stuck on the rim trying to remember everything else my husband was telling me. So, how good are the people who come? Do you have a class for people who are starting from ground zero?

Thanks.

Not a silly question at all. One of the Chick Flick's main goals is to introduce new women to disc golf in a relaxed setting. Last year our recreational division was the biggest division of the event, and there were several women taking part who were brand new. Our clinic's will be saparated by division with the recreational group starting with the basics. Come on out you guys will have a blast.

That is a really good question and one that I worried about as well. Then I read the groups, this is the first time that I will have a chance to play anything but the rec division. I am not very good but I am excited to play with people my own level.

And of course, Hornings is an awesome place and I am excited to spend more time there.

It is going to be a wonderful event.. I am looking forward to it also - sometimes I think I OVER-ESTIMATED my abilities - so - I won't really quite put myself in the advance position, but I would place myself in the Masters - Amateur! Considering that I have recently picked up disc golf last October - so --- Please do help me and I'm open to suggestions -- I know - firm grip, between 10 and 12.. now what else?
This is going to be a great opportunity for all of us - regardless of what kind of questions we will have...

Default Beginner questions

Perhaps my problem is expectations. I played my first full round of 9 holes at Greenway yesterday, and couldn't beat triple par. I can't say I'm at all happy with that score, but I guess I don't have a lot to compare it to. I also question whether I'll even be able to play 36 holes on Sunday, given that I'd expect that to be at least 500 throws. I'd think my back and shoulder would get pretty sore at that. I guess I'm getting at least a little better -- I only got my finger stuck once in nine holes, and my husband let me do it over.

It's not that I'm expecting to shoot even close to par (my husband isn't even shooting par yet), but I guess I'm a little disappointed that I can't even make triple par on an easy course like Greenway. I'm a little afraid that Horning's will be beyond me, and especially for 36 holes. I also feel bad about holding people up, when it takes me a dozen throws or more on a hole.

ptld2001 - Welcome to Disc Golfing! You'll love it!

The goal is to learn -- that's why we have the clinic on Saturday to help you out. You might be surprised about how well you do with other gals on the Highland Course.. I would recommend you come out and try it. For me, I am still learning - even though I've picked it up again in October, I don't feel as perfect either. (I was way over par during the last weekend at Lakewood Open, so I won't worry to much about it.. Just be glad it isn't a PDGA event!)

ptld2001, I remember those days. It is hard, I had an especially hard time since I use to compete with school in regular golf and the first two courses I played were Trojan and The Lucky Mud, talk about trial by fire (or water or trees, which ever you prefer).

This sounds like a great event for you with the clinics first and then the playing the next day. It is amazing how quickly you can get better with a little bit of instruction and practice. I have played for the past three weekends and I can see the difference just in that little time. Sign up and keep enjoying this nice weather on the disc golf course you will already be playing much better by the beginning of August.

Anybody know what Horning's dog policy is? I have some friends who plan to come, but may not be able to camp on Saturday if dogs(2, less than 5 lbs.) aren't allowed.

Here is a link to their dog policy. I would call and make sure that it is not a "special event"
