The Fernearner Fun Drive at the Lucky Mud - Sept. 11

[olydiscgolf]

I will be running the Friday Dub's at the Burner' this year. Probably start around 6:00 or so to allow for the later arrivals. Let me know if you are planning on showing late and want to play, we can hold out a little longer. I'm thinking $6 + $1 ace pot. Half will go to the basket fund and the other half will get paid out.

My wife Adrienne has volunteered to make up a big batch of spaghetti, nothing like a good meal after a late round of drinking, I mean disc golf! Let me know if your interested, so we know how much to make. I'm sure we won't charge for it, but there will be a basket fund jar conveniently located on the table!

I will be kicking in $50 straight to the basket fund, lets see how many baskets we can get for the Fletchers (and Ol' Bob) and this great place!

Gilby, you pretty much rock as hard as anyone I know.

Tim, I don't even know what your saying here! I think its something nice, but Im not hip to all that 'Gansta Scientist' lingo!

[Ol' Bob]

Baskets and more beer... ..............Excellent!

[Fletch]

For the record, everyone involved in this Kicks Ass (especially you Tim)!!!

Sara and I will be down there the weekend prior to due a little tune up on the course and I will be trying my best to coax some salmon out of a local river. Not feeling like cooking, but if sucessful i'll donate a fillet to the TD and his minions for all their much appreciated efforts!

As far as camping goes Mom is hoping to keep most of it OB (Over by Bob's) but I'm sure exceptions can be made if arranged.

Great to have you back Gilberts, you were missed last year!

Since we're getting off easy this year, anything else I can help with please let me know. I'll be down there Wed the 8th.

Seriously..Awsome guys.

[Ol' Bob]

The word I get about shoehorning the campers all over to this side is it's because all the rooms aren't rented at the inn and tents all around could disturb non-disc golfing guests. If all the rooms are full of golfers, then the camping scene will be as usual.

Ooooo! It just so happens that one of my minions is pretty skilled with the ways of grilling and salmon. Here's to hoping your efforts are fruitful (whisper sweet nothings in their ears if need be!)

[Ol' Bob]

Hey, Sunrise caught an 18 pounder yesterday and I got a piece that didn't survive an hour in my possession. Mmmmmmmmmmm, salmon.

Just got the story from him. That one's been a long time coming!

I've tried the fish whisper, but it usually comes out as more of an explicative-laced tirade to the finicky little bastards laughing at my offering!

.....but thankfully there's a few stupid ones in every bunch, and they taste just like the smart ones!

I hated missing the 'Burner, but my wedding held priority!

Like always we are really looking forward to it!

We have a camper trailer this year, will there be room for us to set up shop?

Moving on up! Nice. I'm sure we can find a spot for it Chris. Maybe we can even run some power out to you if you bring some extension cords.

Im gonna be heading down to Riffe Lake this week, gonna try and get a warmup round in at the Mud on Friday morning.

One week to go and things are coming along nicely for the Earner. Chris Schuler is making up some sweet glass trophies for the first place winners, I haven't personally seen his work, but several people have told me he does excellent stuff (I think the word "amazing" may have been used too). Louis Bontempo (Bucket Designs) is making some cool patches for the player packs--I've seen the prototype, and they look badass.

Looks like we'll be playing two rounds, one of 22 holes, and a second of 18 with alt. pads/placements where available. Still have yet to finalize the layout for glow golf, but it'll likely be a 9 or 12 hole layout (sticking to the more open holes for less broken ankles).

Here is the official player's list I have so far, still have a good number of people who have shown interest but haven't committed:

Open
Aaron Thor
Andrew Rivers
Adam Fletcher
Bart Yanoch
Bill Clark
Kenny Clark
Chris Schuler
Toby Cheff
Keith Baber
Heath Kinton
Scruffy

Open Masters
"Eric "Old Bones" "Glowbeard" "Whatever" Mesford"
Terry Surrat

Open Women

Am Women
Kathy McCormack

Wizened
Ol' Bob

Looking forward to seeing everyone soon!

Good time to announce that I have just created Alt. #18. That's the one with 195' shot under the vine maple arch. Instead of going back to the left to get to the tee from #17, you go back and to the right. It's about 215', though I haven't measured it for the record yet. It is a straight, narrow, shot designed to be the midrange challenge hole.

Rock your Buzzz, Buzz your Roc.

I will place a measuring tape on the basket and put up a board so that the Innova, Discraft, and also-ran-brand, shooters can record their CTP distances. The best shot of each brand gets a prize. The best of the best brand gets something really cool, and the best of the runners-up labels get booby prizes. We'll get that Roc/Buzzz thang sorted out.

Hey, this is the biggest, hungriest, of the old tire baskets so I will expect the grand prize to go to an ace, maybe even a play-off of the acers.

Me and a couple of locals tapped that virgin yesterday. Them two guys bounced off of trees, and I hit the green and birdied from 15 feet. If a noodle arm such as I can get that close... (FLX Buzzz, of course.)

Hola,

Sounds great Bob, looking foward to seeing everyone on friday. I'm heading down about noon on friday, might even make it in time for the doubles. Barrett and Sean, might or might not make it in time for the doubles, Barrett making it on time depends on when his wife unlocks his chain. Ol' Bob hopefully you still have the disc I left behind at last years furnburner, don't even remember what it was, except it was almost new (maybe), Dam short term memory problems.

See Ya on Friday, Joe

Imagine that?!?

[Ol' Bob]

Okay, I got my estimate of the distance on Alt. #18 kinda wrong. It's about the same as the primary at around 195 feet. (No wonder I got my Buzzz within fifteen feet.)

I have a crazy amount of stuff to do in the next week. I don't need it to rain.
