hole 5 pye brook- threw beat SE leopard for a hyzer-flip, watched it slowly creep to level and head at the basket- hit pretty much dead center basket an inch from the top. 2nd time i've hit that basket- would've tied me for 1st and been a first ace!

Ok iv got a 3 on hole 2 at borderland white to blue 7 times now..but yesterdays 3 in league was definantly worth mentioning. My first shot was very poor for me..leaving me about 110ft behind the gap..I sat for a moment and contemplated my stragedy to finish the hole..pulled out the star boss and absolutely crushed it! I needed to hit the 40ft putt for the 3..end of story 8-)

I was playing with Isaac ... his 2nd shot was very cool to watch... As he threw the anhyzer I never would have imagined it could get there. .. just continued to ride the line ... I kept expecting the disc to slow down and it just kept going. I wasn't thinking much about the shot when he threw it or even after it turned the corner. it was 4oo feet further down the next fairway when I was like really?!? How is it still flying and maintaining its speed! Just perfect execution paired with tremendous physical ability. Makes me sick. :lol:

Had my gummy APX squeeze completely through the basket for deuce (no wedge) on Pye #4 and followed it up by hitting chains on #5. I have only seen a putter go through the basket 3 times and they were all mine. I will never switch to a hard putter.

Went back to the rules to make sure.

B: Disc Entrapment Devices: ...A disc observed by two or more players of the group or an official to have entered the target below the top of the tray or above the bottom of the chain support is no holed out.

The disc did not wedge in, but went through the front of the cage and was resting inside the basket. That counts for sure.



I am not so sure on that. I think if the group witnessed it going through the cage it is no good.

Yeah, I read the rule book and that is what it sounds like. Just posted a question to chuck. If that is the case, what a stupid rule change!

I was the only one that saw it as it was an downhill shot and the other two were on the downhill side with the basket obstructing the view. They paid the dollar skin that I won. They also paid me $5 and $3 for the chains on the next hole. 50-5-1 and 5-3-1 clubs

Deuce on 18 at Page yesterday, from the bottom of the hill. Anny'd it towards the boulder, sailed right, and it "S"d back right as it lined up with the cage and sat right in.

First deuce Ive heard on that hole, but I wont be surprised if it's not the first!

Tonight at pyramids league, I shot a 2 on hole 13 gold. Put my drive about 15 feet short of the silver pin, then flicked a magic straight and drained it. The only positive about my round tonight.

Abel bagged the casual 3 on hole 11 yesterday. His Nuke drive put him just over 1/2 between the 2 big trees. He over shot his approach past the basket for a under the branch up hiller. If he was any taller I don't think he would of banged the putt. Nice shooting Abel!!

I watched Bill Laudon hit a deuce on 9 at Newton Hill last night. He boomed a Bolt on a slight annie through the gap that made it up past the big tree to the right side then nailed the 30 footer. Sa-weeet! He finished the round with his course personal best 52.

After slinging sand, gravel and 100 lb pavers around for 3-4 hours, we played the fruits of our labor from #25 tee. Arms were heavy and the drives were indicative of a seroius case of "Paveritous". I was able to keep mine on the fairway, within 100 ft of the pin. Pulled out my trusty JK Pro Aviar and threw a frozen rope to the pin. CHING !

At pyramids league i was on hole 14 and my partner had a very good drive, so i decided to really try and power something up because why not, right? Well of course i yank the crap out of it and it heads right into the parking lot, directly at my truck, with a thump. Damn. Well this part is hard to believe but the disc went through the open window of my truck and was sitting on my front seat. No lie, it was pretty crazy
