I have a cart now,not as young as I used to be :shock:

by **Corndawg13** » Mon Jul 30, 2012 11:45 am

I'm in, maybe we can make a few extra holes requiring some more D?!!

So you can miss the putt :lol:

Sorry, couldn't resist after your FB post...

by **Corndawg13** » Thu Aug 02, 2012 9:32 am

Lol, yeah probably. I just think The Alex needs some more D in general. We should have a few 450+ holes so I can make up for missed putts.

Sign-up day of? If so, what time does it start?

by **monsterboys76** » Mon Aug 06, 2012 6:48 pm

We would like everyone to sign in early online so we can prepare for a smooth morning. Everyone knows how hot it will get and I would like to negate as much little stuff as possible so we can get the round started. Day of will be $5 extra for sign in. I believe we will have room for 95 this year because I will be adding a 19th hole. WHERE?! it will be on the right side of the dirt walking path as you are walking from 18 basket to 1 tee pad. it is about 235' to the practice basket, ob in tall grass to the right and mulch walking path ob too. Yes Island hole on 1 again but this year the island will be oblong and a bit distorted. Should be fun!!

I also want to remind everyone again to please sign up on line because we are having t-shirts printed for players packs this year and if we don't have you signed in by the cut off date you will not receive a shirt.

Thanks everyone and we will see you in a few weeks!!

by **Corndawg13** » Tue Aug 07, 2012 9:50 am

I vote to back up hole 19 by 200 feet!

by **monsterboys76** » Tue Aug 07, 2012 8:51 pm

that would be cool but we don't want any weak arms hyzerin out on the walking path or even 1 tee pad, and lefties might make people on 1 a little nervous too.

by **Corndawg13** » Wed Aug 08, 2012 9:53 am

Aren't you throwing across a walking path for hole 19?

We could throw from the tree area behind 16 towards the parking lot with a temp basket.

Why stop there? Why not tee off from the other side of Scenic Hwy to the practice basket?

by **Corndawg13** » Wed Aug 08, 2012 11:52 am

Good point Barry, stretch it out like the temp holes at McCurry!!! What's wrong with a 1k footer anyways?

I want to remind everyone to get signed up online so you can receive a players pack(t-shirt). We will be keeping online signups going till almost the day before the tournament, but I need to make the cut off day for the t-shirts this Friday. Reason why is because I need to have time to get them ordered and printed. Thank you all for signing up already the GDGO is working on a sell out this year!

Player's pack T-Shirt is available to those that sign up by 11:59 tonight. Over 50 people playing so far...

We now have a total of 71 spots filled already so you need to sign in ASAP. We are going to have a sell out fo sho!!!

Now for something really important - What's the lunch action?

by **Cha Ching** » Wed Aug 22, 2012 4:55 pm

Rob Williams is cooking BBQ. Its worth MORE than the cost of your entry, matter of fact, i may not be able to play a 2nd round after i eat :!:

by **monsterboys76** » Wed Aug 22, 2012 9:37 pm

mark spaugh is correct, you win a free lunch!!!

by **monsterboys76** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 8:49 am

we are filling up! we have about 15 spots left so get yourself in. on line sign ups go till midnight tonight and then it will be $5 extra day of. again don't be late in the morning cause you might not make it in! once again thanks to all that signed up ahead of time we will have a very smooth morning so we can get to playing

by **Corndawg13** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 9:41 am

I played Alex yesterday with Gvan and the course looks fantastic, great job in preparations. I did get a disc stuck on hole 10, the bushy tree that hangs down about 15 feet in front of the basket. If you could take that tree down it'd be great.

by **monsterboys76** » Thu Aug 23, 2012 6:33 pm

Ok disc golf players we are up to 82 players right now I assume a handful more will sign up before midnight tonight. This is really awesome! Saturday morning will pretty much be players meeting and play!

by **monsterboys76** » Fri Aug 24, 2012 8:19 am

Yeah! 88 players signed up and ready to play tomorrow. That means we only have 7 spots for same day registration and it's an additional $5. Sign in starts at 7:30AM, and the players meeting will be at 8:30. We should be starting right on time! Thanks again to everyone

by **boodogg** » Fri Aug 24, 2012 10:08 am

Zephyrs and Condors are all cleaned up and ready!

by **gvan** » Fri Aug 24, 2012 12:58 pm

Methinks you didn't refresh the spreadsheet, Greg. There are 5 spots left.

If you want in, I recommend you get cash to Greg or me today or show up early tomorrow to be first in line at sign up. Greg and I will be at Alexander tonight at 6:30 or so. Sign-in starts at 7:30 am.

I will post the number of available spots again at 10PM tonight.

by **Splash_4** » Fri Aug 24, 2012 1:38 pm

Dang!! Wish I could have stayed as that is an honor to be truly proud of.

Thanks to everyone that helped out with the event and congrats to the winners. My apologies to my fellow players who had to endure my whining.
