What's in the player pack?

by **mrpbody33** » Tue Jun 07, 2011 2:18 pm

I heard it would be a Hot Pink Condors.

by **luke** » Tue Jun 07, 2011 5:28 pm

players pack = Jackson Lake between/after rounds. Also, players pack includes a reduced tick population.

by **luke** » Tue Jun 14, 2011 8:41 am

Team list is/will be updated in top post

We have 2 teams now!

by **Rnance7** » Sun Jun 19, 2011 10:15 pm

Can't wait to see the new holes...played the old layout for the first time this weekend. How many teams are you expecting?

by **luke** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 9:07 am

The last tournament in the winter had 22 teams. That was our best attendance yet. Though I'd like to break it, not many folks are signing up early, so we might not be breaking the record-----but usually we do get at least 15 teams.

by **luke** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 9:10 am

And sorry the course was in such a mess this weekend---we are working on getting it cleaned up, so if you come to play it, please be patient!

FYI, the holes that will NOT be in the tournament that are in the layout right now:

CURRENT 9, 11, 12, 13 (the last hole in the woods)

CURRENT 14, 15, 16, 17 (the open holes minus the trailer hole)

NEW HOLES FOR THE TOURNAMENT: 6, 7, 9, 13, 14, 15, 16 (to old 12 basket from a new fairway)

OLD HOLES "REFURBISHED" FOR THE TOURNAMENT: THE OLD WOODPILE HOLE!

by **Rnance7** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 8:25 pm

Awesome...Is the trailer hole 15 or 16?

by **luke** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 12:54 am

The trailer hole is current number 15, will be number 18.

by **luke** » Wed Jun 22, 2011 9:16 am

Alright, future and past attendees, the Monty needs you more than ever. We need turnout. Let me know you're alive, thinking about coming, etc. Right now I have only 2 teams, and one of them I'm on. SIGN UP FOLKS! Got a fun new layout, shaded (mostly) in the woods.

by **luke** » Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:42 pm

Updated at the top----We now have six teams on the list. Keep 'em comin'.

by **luke** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 12:00 am

All the baskets are in the woods now except number 14, which got stuck in its pin (rusted?).

Also, the trailer hole is number 18 in this layout, and the only hole not in the woods.

Website · by **Wookie** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 6:33 am

Try using "PB Blaster" on the rusted basket. You should be able to spray it and let it sit for a few minutes and it should break free.

by **$Dollar$** » Fri Jul 01, 2011 11:59 am

Someone else can win this one, I can only play on Sundays for the most part these days.

by **luke** » Wed Jul 06, 2011 12:23 pm

7 teams that I'm sure of now, though I've heard rumor of 2-3 more lurking out there.

Yesterday I got the last basket in place, so the Monty IX layout is now in place. Some of the holes are rough; I haven't installed tee signs on #'s 15, 16, 17; Tee markers are in place, but on 6, 7, 9, 13, 14, 15, 16, the tees haven't been played on yet, just cleaned up; debris is still down on several holes, but it's the worst on 13, 14, and 16 near the pin; mowing needs to occur, or at least the clipping of growth, on 5, 6, 7, 12, 18.

Overall, it's improving weekly.

by **grease** » Wed Jul 06, 2011 12:25 pm

Greasy Chilly will be playing Open. Sign up for this folks! It's a great course and Luke deserves all of our support.

by **Funky Bobby J** » Wed Jul 06, 2011 1:04 pm

I am not sure Chilly really qualifies as a "passionate" golfer - more of a wreckless flirtation that you might jump into because it is closing time and you do not want to go home alone...

Ah, poetry, like the tang of chains from 400 feet...

by **Steve Adams** » Thu Jul 07, 2011 8:25 am

Ed Jacob & I are planning to play. Maybe we can come up with a cool name by the tournament :roll:

by **grease** » Thu Jul 07, 2011 9:25 am

Team Jacadams?

by **monsterboys76** » Thu Jul 07, 2011 2:33 pm

Greg Pothier and Al Hause are in it to win it. not sure of a name quite yet

by **Funky Bobby J** » Thu Jul 07, 2011 4:18 pm

Pot-Hause - too easy

by **Rnance7** » Thu Jul 07, 2011 10:17 pm

sign my team up as ATL RBG

by **luke** » Thu Jul 07, 2011 11:04 pm

I'm counting ten confirmed teams, plus four others that are pretty sure of coming.

You guys that just confirmed, what division do you want to play?

by **Al 7.0 Olds** » Fri Jul 08, 2011 12:43 am

I only see Pro and Intermediate mentioned above. What about Advanced Beginners or the AARP divisions :?:

by **crguanaco7** » Sat Jul 09, 2011 1:19 pm

for those of you that wonder what our name means

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discobolus First congratz on your symmetria. Second are you planning to play completely nude in the tourney? That may or may not attract more players :mrgreen:

by **dandaman** » Sat Jul 09, 2011 9:58 pm

Looking for a partner (disc golf, totally platonic) for this event. Either Intermed. or Adv.

by **Al 7.0 Olds** » Sun Jul 10, 2011 12:54 am

I thought that it might get more women to sign up

by **luke** » Sun Jul 10, 2011 10:10 pm

I think that's 11 teams.

I only have Open and Intermediate teams declaring their division so far, but I'm sure plenty of advanced will be in the mix.

by **luke** » Sun Jul 10, 2011 10:14 pm

12 teams---with Mark Spaugh stepping up and playing open!

by **luke** » Sun Jul 10, 2011 10:18 pm

ok, I'm only counting ten. I don't teach math. Me teach English.

by **rda** » Mon Jul 11, 2011 7:22 am

Ryan Adams and Adam Schneider will be showing up and playing open, you could call us Team Athens.

by **good wood** » Mon Jul 11, 2011 4:15 pm

Nat Rushin and Dave Hedeen = 'Team Hed Rush' ...... we'll go Ams

by **luke** » Mon Jul 11, 2011 8:55 pm

Excellent! By Ams you mean Advanced? I assumed so...

by **luke** » Mon Jul 11, 2011 8:56 pm

That is 12 teams. 22 is the record.

by **luke** » Mon Jul 11, 2011 9:41 pm

Check out The Monty Course Thread for information on the layout. It's developing information, so check back to see if it changes (distances, descriptions).

by **Bhuff** » Tue Jul 12, 2011 8:36 am

Ryan so you get the good athens team name huh...Greg and I will most likely be there, probably playing open but going to double check with hanky...Team Hanky, FTW

by **grease** » Tue Jul 12, 2011 8:56 am

One of you can be Team Ath-holes.

by **luke** » Tue Jul 12, 2011 4:26 pm

That's 13.

by **luke** » Tue Jul 12, 2011 4:29 pm

I worked at the course today. So close. Only 3,000,0 more sticks to pick up.

by **Rnance7** » Tue Jul 12, 2011 4:33 pm

Its ATL RBG..says 'RGB'

by **luke** » Wed Jul 13, 2011 1:12 pm

14 teams official. I'm getting happier. That record's bound to fall!

by **luke** » Wed Jul 13, 2011 9:56 pm

When he's not busy working on Mosely, Dandaman comes to the Monty to measure holes! All holes have been measured---look under the course thread for that---and the total new distance is 5580.

by **grease** » Wed Jul 13, 2011 10:53 pm

Sign up folks! The Monty is a blast and the new holes are awesome just like the old holes. Don't miss out on supporting one of the hardest working td/course designers there is. Give Luke some props bitches!

by **luke** » Thu Jul 14, 2011 10:38 am

yeah! Wait-----what?

15 teams now!

by **luke** » Thu Jul 14, 2011 10:38 am

by **luke** » Thu Jul 14, 2011 4:28 pm

WHo? Who?

by **luke** » Thu Jul 14, 2011 4:35 pm

Come play the course ahead of time, THis Saturday 7/16 at 9:00 am I'm hosting random draw dubs, or wolf, or whatever game that folks want to play. I recommend checking out the new holes. FOr the most part they are nothing like the rest of the course. Let me know if you are considering coming down!

by **Rnance7** » Fri Jul 15, 2011 10:56 pm

Really looking forward to next weekend! Hoping to be able to check new changes out sometime during the week

by **luke** » Sat Jul 16, 2011 2:29 pm

In three different groups, 15 showed up to play today. Luke and Jim took the cash in the money round, shooting a 47 on a probable 56 par.

by **luke** » Sat Jul 16, 2011 2:34 pm

Adding 4 Conyers teams, 2 Macon Teams and others, and our total is now about 22. Looking for 23 to break the attendance record.

by **luke** » Sat Jul 16, 2011 10:22 pm

by **dandaman** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 1:58 am

Need a partner....still....I'm really not that bad....I'm sure with another decent partner we could take Intermed. Carlos? Gerrit? Bueler? I think I could take ADV too..

by **luke** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 9:07 am

And Dan was the #2 work guy getting the course ready, so he will have a sweet glow around him when he gets on the course. Nothing gay meant by that; the zone takes care of its own.

by **MrFixIt** » Mon Jul 18, 2011 8:08 am

GaCraig and MrFixIt = Team Oconee, INT div please.

by **good wood** » Mon Jul 18, 2011 9:15 am

Team Hed Rush would like to play Intermediate, Adv looks like a tough win :wink:

sorry for the confusion, on my part.

by **grease** » Tue Jul 19, 2011 11:11 am

Team Chilly Grease could not happen for unforeseen reasons, but Team Brauny Grease will be there!

by **Bhuff** » Tue Jul 19, 2011 11:37 am

Unfortenutely Ath-Holes will not be able to make it. Completely looked over plans already made.

Very glad you're in Dan! 23 TEAMS.

I mowed yesterday. Considering that cleanup started with the place in total chaos, I'm very happy that mowing was an option yesterday. IN places the course is still a little rough, but not bad. Overall, it's tournament ready.

by **Rnance7** » Wed Jul 20, 2011 9:43 pm

, we had a blast!

Thanks again!

by **grease** » Mon Jul 25, 2011 9:40 am

Agreed! Thanks Luke for the tournament and your hospitality. Also, big hand for Brian Lang and Barry Arnson for manning the board and making things run smooth as silk.

What he said for sure. If I didn't have help from folks, I'd never get tournaments done. Even though the flyer said that I'm the TD, that work was shared by Me, Brian, Barry, and yep, you too, Grease, you sexy beast.

by **Cha Ching** » Mon Jul 25, 2011 7:04 pm

Always a good time at The Monty! I was impressed by the new layout..thought we lost a bunch of shade out there! Cant wait to play it with shiny new baskets!! :!:

by **monsterboys76** » Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:32 am

loved playing this course, good job guys! only down side to this was i had to play with Spaugh two rounds in a row. Eh, I'll get over it :roll:

by **monsterboys76** » Tue Jul 26, 2011 4:53 pm

yeah an almost skip ace off of the top of the trailer on 18.

by **luke** » Tue Jul 26, 2011 9:21 pm

Skip ace off the top----it hasn't been done yet but very close. THat is the most aced hole; five or six now. I took that route in the tournament and my group both times thought I was crazy, but it really is the best route to get you there without getting bogged down in the grass.

by **monsterboys76** » Wed Jul 27, 2011 1:47 pm

yes there is plenty of room there for a nice soft hyzer

by **Rnance7** » Wed Jul 27, 2011 10:13 pm

Love that route...Got the same reaction when i threw a putter on hyzer over the trailer...but then everyone was like "ohhhhh" after it landed 5 ft from the basket :-)
