I'm playing the LCO for the first time this year. I'm super stoked to check out all the great courses up there in NE Washington.

There is an intermediate player with a 938 rating? Sounds like a case of severe sand bagging to me... Is there anyway for a Tournament Director to force a player to play in a division more suited to them? Obviously this person should be stepping up to advanced. Considering that he'd have one of the higher ratings in that division...

935 is cut off for intermediate...but the wss will allow someone that has started in intermediate even if there rating takes them out of that division

[General Scales]

Is there a way to determine if the player rating started below 935 this year and has moved up due to a ratings update?

[mine all mine]

Not sure who you are talking about because the highest rated player in that division is 933. I looked at his profile and there are only five rated rounds under his belt. He could probably play advanced but he would have a better chance of winning in intermediate.

[General Scales]

Yeah, my phone took a shit this morning apparently. The lcd is making 3, 8 and 0 all look the same.

Price of my smart phone: 300 dollars
Price of my plan: 65 a month
Price of watching me put my foot in my mouth over and over again: Priceless.

Good one!

[Sean Johnson]

Yeah, his is the perfect example of a "bubble" player. It looks like he's been playing AM1 since 2008, but he hasn't won one yet, despite some very strong performances (like a 969 round at last years BSF). I'd be playing AM2 if I were him though, at least until I had a few wins under my belt. He's definitely the guy to beat as of right now; experienced, with a track record of performing well in some very competitive fields.

So the question is is it more important to win or play at your skill level?

My answer: It's more important to have fun.

[General Scales]

As a competitive person , I crave challenge. I am constant in my belief that I'm better then I am. Now if I can only match my that delusion...

at your skill level jub its just important YOU can get there ...lol but winning would be nice

[mine all mine]

I wish I had put a few more competitive wins under my belt before making the jump to open. I would think the confidence that comes with winning in your division can be carried over when you step up divisions.

I went out and took in 4 mound yesterday with Gordy. Man is that place looking sweet. Still some water hazards here and there, Green everywhere with waxy looking yellow flowers and elegant purple flowers growing all over the place.

I looked at a few of the changes Gordy has planned for the Jumanji Course and really liked what he is proposing.

The Intermediate and other divisions that will be playing on the Porcupine 13 will be getting a whole new challenge this year. They will play part of the Pro Final 10 course.

[Wobbly Bob]

The new Super Color Buzzz's came in yesterday. They look good and deserve a place on any disc golfers living room wall. Call me if you would like one. 509 991-1807

WE have a two-year old hanging around the Mound. Jaymie and our boys followed him from Hawk 18 down to the 17th tee of Cape Tear and over to the 'Avenue of the Giants' tee. We got a great pic of Mr. Moose standing on the tee. If we had audio you could hear him say, 'Let's tee off!' I will try to get my boys to post some of the pics here.
The next day, yesterday, I was re-working the OB line for Porky 18 and was running a new set of stakes up the southeast side of the fairway towards the tee when I looked up and there's Mr. Moose again standing right behind the tee munching on the fresh syringia blossoms. I was on the little roadway in front of the tee about 50' from the 7' BEAST. I whistled and hailed the moose by name....'Mr. Moose, Mr. Moose.... and so forth. Since I was by myself I thought it best to get back to my work, heading in the opposite direction. The moose, left to his own resources, just munched away right there until it was time for me to go. Altogether a very good two days at the Mound.

That's a very familiar looking logo. Like from a past LCO maybe?

[Wobbly Bob]

Similar, but not the same.
