Hero - wondering if me and david Wollner (and possibly others) could come up this afternoon for a round ? I got directions from a previous post. Neither of us has had a chance to play at your course yet and have heard wonderful things. Maybe we could visit the Cambridge house afterwards ? Sorry for such a late ask.

[HERO]

'tis always open--especially for discotechs like yerselves. C'mon n play--should be a very fine day!

Cheerio

[Les Sinnock]

Thanks again Hero for a wonderful day. I very much enjoyed the round, and your company. Nice to see Milce again. Our paths haven't crossed much lately. Hey, how about them Pats !! Lookin' forward to the next time. Skol !

[drinkysr]

Thanks Hero.

My friends Jeff Bozeman, Frank Costello and myself had a fine time at your great course/home.

If you should find a bright pink Champion Valk at the bottom of your pond - keep it with my compliments. (it's near the white birch on the far shore with respect to the tee).

I also might mention that your boat has a small hole in the bottom. But maybe that is a good thing since, on a beautiful day like Friday the temptation would be to lollygag.

Hero - Just wanted to make sure everything was OK with you, the family and the course after last nights storms. I was watching the radar all night and at one point the local station down here in fairfield county pinpointed Loomis St. in North Granby (which according to mapquest is about 2 miles from you) as having the most severe weather in the state at the time. 72 mile per hour winds!!! Hope you all are OK.

Ditto that Hero.........hope everythings ok.

[Bill Stewart]

I hope you were out there with that Firebird working on your headwind game!

[Andy Murray]

I played down there today. Everything is fine. A few branches down here and there but otherwise pretty clean.

[HERO]

ALL IS WELL! Yo, all just back in from CHI-town--2 day ordeal in O'hare and Midway to get home--so i missed all the windblown excitement here--but other than powwwah outage (can't throw a firebird backhand more then 50 ft..? ) HDGC is intact...n ready 2 b attacked! )

Cheerio

I got two discs back from hero on sunday, and promptly lost two more during a horrible 3 shot series on holes 16 and 17. So Hero, first is a 175 champion monster that was lost in the top of that huge pricker bush on the corner of 16's fairway/green. Second was a white star wraith lost probably 30 feet to the right of the teebox for 17, dont ask. The wraith is also in the pricker bush and I looked briefly but couldnt come up with it. As always any help is appreciated, and I think ill be down just before xmass to hopefully pick up the discs and not lose any more.

[HERO]

Hey A--we'll get the posse out...again!

FYI: for your own sake, have u looked into a satellite tracking device for your disc's yet---santa's comin 'round--hurry up and write him a note

out

ro! ro! ro!

thanks fer comin out!

[Chris Webb]

TWO!!!!!

Wow!

I'll bring Penny by to tire them out for you.

Need any help clearing?

-Webb

[HERO]

Hey there mr. Webb! Yep a twofer

Almost named one webber--as in black as coal and fired up! Ya know?...then i said...can't have THREE webbers in my life! (counting the one i love to grill on doncha know!)

Yep--they are pretty awesome (and tiring) right now! They'll definitely give "old" penn a run fer her money fer years 2 cum.

Their names were derived from norse mythology as the breeder is Valhalla kennels and this was the "God & Goddesses" litter. The stud was a decendant of Coby's clan.

Can't expose 'em to other hot diggedy dogs right know--i think we need another few weeks until they get their next round of vaccinations.

On another note--i've been cross-working (chain saw one day, brush cut another, pole saw yet another day, stick pick up and then lopping yet another day) on the new holes (got it barely manageable!) A little here, a little there...(with pup care, ball golf league and soccer coaching--yikes!).

But if u or anyone is up for some lopping and modest clearing, stick pick up--i'd imagine we could actually put the baskets in on the two new holes (7A and 6A--yep that's right 6A--a real nut cruncher) and put the pads in on all the 5A, 7A, 13A, 14A, 16A, and 18A) after several heavy loads of mulch=then we get to play the "Super Hero" 20 hole loop!.

Cheerio!

ro

[Dave McHale]

is 6A an alternate pin, or a replacement hole entirely? And you say THIS one is a real nut-cruncher? wasn't hole 6 hard enough? haha playin' bro, that hole is sickly tight but I still love it!

[HERO]

Hey Dave! New basket = 2 now on that hole, same t-pad.

Take the tee shot out to the left of original basket and run it another 150 feet toward the #7 T pad. If u recall the tree stand is much thicker up to the basket but it opens(?) quite nicely (for a lot of potential tacos and crazy kicks!) out to the new position. Too long an upshot---take a hike down the embankment!

Great line with a pincer approach one on the left, one on the right...if u stay in the right lane that is the alley that can take u all the way there in one...all ya gotta do is get it about 6 feet over the original basket with slight fade to the left...?

Prolly the first ace on 6 will be a black one going for the 6A pin!

I know u can do it---i'm gonna be tryin fer a long time!

Cheerio

[blacktideao]

Now, just let me get this straight, Is 6 the one that's on my camera with the warning sign for cry babies, and a 3ft wide x 100' long path through 500 pine trees?! that you just put another longer basket in??? I'm usually cringing before it even hits a tree on that one. You have a better chance at throwing a brick through there then a disc. Can't wait to try it.

[Dave McHale]

yeah andy, that's #6. I've hit metal on that hole twice actually going anhyzer (once was during glo, skidding up under it ) but that WILL be a sick hole with an even longer pin position. Make the "no whining" sign even BIGGER for that layout, hero

[HERO]

I'll put up "ok to cry" sign.

[blacktideao]

Thanks Hero.

Thanks...
