Karl crushed a solid 6 hours today!

He also spoke with the road side mower guy and sent him towards a task we needed done.
Great timing

I took a walk out there on Memorial Day and was glad to see a little progress, but kind of sad to see that a tree had fallen on the pavilion. I hope at least some of it can be salvaged for future use, it would be a great thing to have.
The timber harvest really made a mess of things from 4-9, didn't it? I was unable to re-locate the fifth hole. Mud and bulldozer tracks everywhere. Lots of work to do but I'm sure you guys will have things standing tall soon. Keep slugging away at it, and I might be able to pitch in soon. At the very least I want to come visit while you're working out there so I can see what the plan is. Thanks and best of luck!

Cleaning on 6-9 is a nightmare

stop by check it out chuck some sticks to a pile

1 stick, 2 sticks, 30 sticks, 300 sticks, 3,000 sticks, 30,000 sticks, 300,000 sticks, 3,000,000
we have quantity to fit any order!

A wise man who's name rhymes with Tully said why not targets even a painted 2x4 stuck in the ground would be cool

2 hours today creating piles on hole 8, actually not to bad until you approach entrance to green area.

great news on this hole is the lugging is downhill and most is can be raked downhill towards pile for even less of a haul.

Breck & Guy will be out there Monday

Breck did not make it out today, as he had yardwork to do at his house and didn't want to play pick up sticks in 90 degree weather when he was done, (he is smarter than he looks 8-) ) will be back out there soon though as this project needs help from everyone. As a man who has probably reached the million sticks tossed mark, trust me when I say every little bit helps even if it is only an hour or so. Let's see some love from the local crew, (Tully-Flatrock)
I'd be a lot better if those trees didn't get in the way.

Indeed Karl did work till dark, I did not arrive until 6pm but we toughed it out till dusk.

Karl is currently making friends w/the local snapping turtles for his evening shower and will be feeding the bugs tonight as he opted for an overnight stay on the course.

So any lurkers stop up visit Karl in the AM 6/25 6am until noon, I believe Guy will be there also and I should be there by 11am

progress was made holes 1-4 are IMO completed besides tees/baskets for play. If you add up the other work on the remaining holes we are about 4.5 holes away from calling this place a DISC GOLF course.

Don't miss out on creating this gem
