Re: Trash talk...


It's not fair, IMO, to have someone "adopt" a hole and be responsible for picking up after these morons. We have league players occasionally pick up trash during leagues, and we do "trash rounds" every so often when we notice it's really getting bad out there.

I think when the weather gets nice ...

Awesome news Rob!!...congrats on getting permission for the back 9!! The front 9 is truly epic so I'm sure the back 9 will be something to look forward to. I really like the idea of a kickstarter program for new courses as well. Look for a financial donation to come your way very soon. :D

If the tourney doesn't fill, why not let him play ? If it does, then sure, "Sorry man, it's full of folks who qualified", is reasonable also. No one likes to hear no, sometimes its the only response. I just simply don't see the benefit of a black and white no here.

I remember back when we first proposed a course at Wompatuck. We even formed a team for the TC called Team Wompatuck for one season. We did a proposal to the friends group as well as the park supervisor and it was well received. David Farf Good (Deaf Disc golfer) was actually the lead on the ...

Re: Yesterday at Cross Farms

Few things aggravate me to the core like littering. When I first starting playing disc at Burgess over 10 years ago, the whole course was essentially one giant trash can.

Last night's meeting went very well.

To see proposed areas for a disc golf course on all 3 scenarios was highly encouraging ...
