What's a KP contest? Sounds like summer camp kitchen duty contests...

Whoever has the most "killer putt" wins the contest. Judges must have been strongly affiliated with an 80's hair band.

No one knows why "KP" stands for closest-to-pin. It comes from ball golf.

Nice pics, but do my eyes deceive me or are the tees natural at North Bonneville? The shelter looks great but I don't think that the course would work too well for Team Disc Golf in the winter with natural tees. Is there a plan to put down cement this year or next? Thanks!

Yes, they're grass/dirt.

If we got Big Winds, we get Sorosis no matter what the tee surface is. I am glad that you guys upgraded to cement tees, I can't wait to play it!

I talked to Victor on Sunday and he said the Boy Scouts put the pads in. They are smaller than normal but they ARE concrete. Can't wait to play um!

We're working to get concrete pads in North Bonn but don't have a time frame yet.

We're thinking about starting a weekly doubles series on Sundays with a $4 buy-in to help raise funds. $2 would go into the pot, $1 to concrete fund & $1 to a rollover ace pot.

Everyone is welcome to check our site, www.nbdga.org , if interested.

Why not throw a tourney that half of the entry goes towards tee pads if you were able to get 60 for your last tourney I believe you could do that or even better if the weekend was planned for no other tourneys being played. I know that I wouldn't mind dropping 20 on a great cause.

We're working on holding a second tourney, but in the near term we're going to start our doubles this Sunday at 6pm. We're going to go with a $3 buy-in (rather than $4) with $1 going into the pot, $1 into the ace pot, which will carry over, and $1 into our tee pad fund.

We welcome everybody & anybody to come out this Sunday & help us get our doubles started off right.

We're also thinking about putting together a mixed-doubles on a fairly regular basis & would like to hear feedback from the disc golfing community. We're not sure if it would be best to require mixed couples to come out together & then shuffle them with a draw or allow singles too & try to figure out what to do with any leftovers when the mixing is done. Ideas?

Random draw doubles. If there is an odd man (or woman) out, they play Cali where they get one extra shot per hole.

Good suggestion, Sam, although we were thinking more along the lines of requiring one of the guys in the pairs without a gal to wear a dress while playing. We can pick up some stunning prom dresses at the local thrift store & really perk things up on the course.

It might also encourage more guys to bring a gal along.
