Lost another one at Barre.

hole 8
Pro Leopard
Left of the bird house down the hill, into the tall grass.

I think Im gonna start bringing a weed wacker to Barre that grass grows quick and high.

On a side note I saw someone clearing a path by the road towards the woods on hole 13. Is this the begining of a new fairway for hole 13????

yes. And 14. Hole 11 will change as well. Movin' on up to bigger and better things. Just so guys like Cooper won't lose their discs.

Nice can't wait to see how it comes out. Let me know if there is going to be any days I could help out with. I don't own any real tools that can help out but I do ha

Now Bobka I can lose discs in an open field I can lose them anywhere. At least I can now lose them on new holes. :D

Update on my lost river. I can safely assume it is either in someone elses bag or it has officially gone home to the river as barre is FLOODED!

Lost Yellow Champion Orc on hole 2.
New course for me and I overestimated the distance since there wasn't one marked on the sign. Probably ended up in the water behind basket.
Please call if found. Had it for a couple years now and is (was) my "go to" driver for a lot of shots.

How often are discs returned at Barre? and is there a L&F system?

Discs are returned when the right people find them. I was "in charge" of L&F for a couple years, and after a hole design was changed (ironically, hole two), less discs have been lost. Mostly in the fields now.

I'll keep a lookout Jeff.

Though likely in vain, I should at least try... Left a tie-dye towel somewhere between 18 and 5 during round 2 of the bbbbbbbq. Also, sent a yellow pro destroyer with a red 2009 cranbury classic stamp into the water on 10. :(

Lost a brand new blue star wraith on the left road on 17. It bounced off the guard rail and landed on the top, saw it sliding down and no idea where it ended up.

JimBo help me out if you get a chance. Lost a yellow champion Leopard on hole 16. Tried taking the "man route" off the tee and kicked left off the last tree just before the field. It's somewhere in those leaves.

Arty, I'm assuming it's still on the hill? Is it left of the main fairway? I'm guessing the 'man route' is the somewhat new one, straight at the pin. I'll check it out for sure tomorrow after work.
Eric, I'm sure it'll show itsself, there's no flooding this year, so you're definitely in luck. When the water warms a bit you can head out with a rake and probably surface it.
Stephen, checked out the bushes, long gone. sorry

JimBo, thanks for looking for mine too. A nice person named Davin called me last night and said he found it and is going to to turn it into Pyramids L&F. 8-) Looks like I'll be playing the 'mids tonight. 8-) x 2. I wonder if he is the same one who found Stephen's disc. Thanks, again Davin if you are reading this.

Blue Destroyer gone yesterday on hole 10, out of sight over the hill. Probably made it to the water left of the basket so I'm not too hopeful...but figured I'd post just in case.

Lost 2 this past friday, first was a Star archon on hole 5, crushed my drive up to the corner and we even had a spotter but the grass is so Fing tall that we could not find it and the second was a star wraith on hole 10 that went into the river. I would love these 2 back, both were go to drivers.

Searched the grass on 5 today, came up with nuthin'.... went into the woods as well, no sign. Was this your first shot? I'm guessing it was. Flick, or Righty backhand? How high did it travel??? as much info as possible is good on grassy fairways

Will check the river tomorrow after work....should be hot enough to dunk my head in..... bobkat holmes out (sherlock, not John)

thanks for looking, my drive went all the way to the bend then 30-50' off the fairway left. the river drive probably wont be found, not sure how close to the spill way you can get but im sure it went in pin high in the fast moving water

Add another one to hole 5's casualties. Lost a Yellow Star Wraith off the drive that I've had for a while and would love to get back, spent a while searching but I think it probably got buried somewhere in the grass. Right around the bend, don't think I pushed it long, should be about 10-15 ft off the fairway. It was a forehand, line of sight from the tee box had it breaking right and coming down in line with one of the red maples near 8's green, not the one directly behind 8's basket, but the one to the right of that. Thanks in advance if someone here is lucky enough to find it.

Looked for Steve Egeland's disc on 5, nuthin doin'. Tough to get lucky when I didn't see the shot; you have to do a grid search: up 25', three steps right/left, down 25' and continue.... not very easy to do in hip high grass
