    Played Expo today after work and beat my personal best. It's now -13 (-14 if you count throwing back to the practice basket. Felt good the entire round and had a good chance to crush my best. Stupid pars on 3 of the last 5 holes stopped that. Playing tags there tomorrow, so hopefully I can keep up the birdies!!

    if you haven't tried the rocketballz driver, do so. It is very impressive. I'm not a long hitter and it added 40 yards to my drive

    Thanks MasterShake!!!

    I don't think that's going to help AlWilsonizKing much.

    Lol.....I feel the love Dog.

    My first ever Ace was hole 7 at Expo. Followed during the same round by a thru the tree, chain crashing, spit out the backside on hole 11. Was THAT CLOSE to getting my first two Aces, during the same round. Good thing though was I got paid $140 for that Ace. Ace pools are nice!!!

    hehe. . . you know it's all love, homes. . . don't mind a little jealousy. . .

    if i ever manage to throw one, i can easily see it being on seven or ten at expo. . . that would've been crazy if you'd thrown two that day. . . you still have the disc you hit the first one with? i woulda framed that bad boy. . .

    You put your name and number on your discs Dog? I know a few people who go "swamping" in expo and a couple are really good at calling people back to return discs......others do not. I used to go swamping, but just cant find the time any more.

    Great news for me.....the weekend of my birthday (Jan 28) I will be in Hawaii visiting a friend who's working down there......and.......playing in the BIG ISLAND OPEN!!! I cannot wait for that. Never been to Hawaii and am looking forward to it!!

    So I played in my first out of state tourney last weekend in Wyoming. Placed 6th out of 30 in the Advanced division and could have done better had I known how discs fly differently there compared to here. Let a lot of missed birdie putts out there also. Felt good with a 6th place finish after how I feel I played.

    btw...didn't get to go.....

    Highlights were:

    On Friday I got to play a bring your own partner doubles tourney on Little Americas Ball Golf course and had the use of the carts for the round. That was SWEET! First time I'd gotten to play Disc with a cart. We played the 3rd round of the tourney there, but didn't get the carts then.

    Saturday, right before the 2nd round was about to begin, when everyone was getting their card assignments and walking to the tees......a huge lightning bolt hit about 50-60 feet from where I and about 15 others were in the parking lot. 100 feet from tourney central!! A split second before it hit, my head and arms were full of static electricity and when it hit it intensified greatly. I took my hat off to make sure it wasn't burnt! A fellow player from Colorado was knocked out by it. He was ok, even finished playing the entire weekend and won his division....beating several very good players!!

    It was a great time with a great group of people. If no of you know, DISC GOLFERS are a great community....no snobbishness like in Ball Golf.

    Got a FUNdraiser this weekend at a The Mansion Course (private course) here in Denver! Cannot wait as it is always a blast!!!

    I'm addicted to this now. Started maybe a month ago.

    Slick, you chuck any plastic lately? Dog?

    There's a new course near my house--it's by Highlands Ranch Parkway and Broadway.

    I have a few neighborhood buddies that I go with. Both are better but not that much better.

    I like to watch coverage of pro events, too. JoMez Pro and Disc Golf Channel (or something like that) on y/t have a lot of great content. I'm starting to get familiar with some names of the more well-known recent pros: McBeth, Socki-bomb, Eagle, KJ, the Napoleon Dynamite dude, and the dude with long hair in a pony tail (Conrad?).

    I'm trying to get more distance on my drives. I hit 308 yesterday. That's the farthest I've thrown (flat no wind). I feel like if I throw it harder I need to really compress and load my shoulder/humerus joint and I'm worried about snapping a bicep after hearing a horror story about it. I'll keep y'all posted. U-Disc is an app that lets you measure throws (and shows courses and all kinds of great stuff).
