i'll be out there to coach any young ladies who look like they need coaching. :ph34r:
Dan will now be unable to play IO #3 due to restraining orders filed as a result of Sunday's leagues. :P
Thanks for the info, Brett :D I sent an e-mail to Jill. Unfortunatly, I'm working the next 2-3 Saturdays so I might not be awake to play Fairfield at 4p on Sunday. I made contact with her anyway. Maybe we'll meet up somewhere another time.

Lake County Ladies League
Calling all recreation/intermediate and pro women disc golfers out to play best shot doubles
SUNDAYS @ 4 pm
@ Fairfield Round Lake Course
This is a time to have fun, make friends and learn the game of disc golf from other gals.
★ Arrive at 3:45 to pair up with your partner, league lasts about 2 hours
★ League entry is $3 each week, and an optional $1 ace pool... all money collected will go to pay out the winner of the round, and ace pool will rollover until an ace is hit
Questions? Ideas? OR want to help out? Call or email Jill @ 223-5022 or leviathan81@hotmail.com
Get a babysitter, grab a friend, and come play the fastest growing sport in the world!
ok.. i just posted the flyer.. but for some reason it didnt post as it actually looks, so if anyone feels like paste-ing that to a new page and printing it out to put up at your local course, that would be great. i can put them up at the area courses, wildwood, adler, maybe bevier. any help would be awesome!
I had fun today :) I dragged my tired butt out of bed (after working 7pm 8/20 until 8:00 am this am) and played pretty good for me!
Come on, ladies! Come join the fun!
8/22: Jill and I were the only women who showed up for Jill's new Women's league. We decided to play $.25 skins. We pushed a couple of holes but I ended up with $3 more in my pocket than I left with. Next time I guess we should just go with Jill's original idea of $3 entry with $1 ace pool (ace pool would roll over to the next gathering).
I really had a lot of fun. We need more women to join us! We saw at least 3-4 other women out there during that round. See Jill's schedule in the above post for the next round!
No league this Sunday, right?
correct, no league. and, i think there will actually be a change in the time, just because its easier for both myself and tree... us being the two who have only come, i figure it may be okay to change the time--- so, ladies, best shot doubles, at 5 pm on sundays.
today at the tourney, and also on saturday, i was able to talk with a few other women who said they might come out. so hopefully, this next sunday, sept 5th, we can actually play doubles :) kvn handed out a couple of flyers, and one woman sounded really excited, and wanted to pass the flyer onto her friends...
7 women played on saturnday... 2 on sunday... woohooo! our numbers are increasing!
Jill-I talked to some casual lady players on Sunday too. If you get a chance to update your flyer at the park with the new time, that would be great! Are we playing this sunday?

Bump :)
Any one coming on Sunday?

Hey, Guys! Guess what! Our attendance at Ladies League more than doubled this week! We were able to play doubles B) Here are the scores:
Claire (So. Cal) was our winner with a 60
Tree and Jill: 62
Tanya and Dee: 72
The $1 ace pool rolled over to next round.
Tanya and Dee did well for beginners to tournament play! Claire just burned up the course as her own partner :) Jill and I were excited to play with new people :D
I had a great time :) I look forward to next time!
can i play leagues if i dress like a woman, i sure played like one in lockport this weekend.
I read your story Justin-So sorry to hear about the weekend struggle but no you can't join us for Ladies League but your girl friend can ;)

$1 ace pool rolled over from last week.
Jill is working Sunday and I'm sleeping (because I'm working 7p-7am Saturday night) so we can't go to the Blast at Bevier. All Am Women who played Saturday are welcome :) Come on out for doubles!
Jill and I were the only players this week at league. We miss playing doubles with other people! We were wondering about developing a handicap system. I won by more than a stroke a hole, just because I've got more experience and practice time in. It's not fair for me to take Jill's money every week but we need to play for something with a scoring system that's fair to each players level of play. Any thoughts, guys?
Oh, yeah-the $2 ace pool rolled over until next week.
If she's a rated player you could round your ratings to the nearest divisible by 10 number and give her the difference between her rounded rating and your rounded rating.... That's probably the closest you'd get to a true handicap
just give her a stroke a hole to start
then adjust
Try giving her the number of strokes you won by last time, less one. This way if she improves by a stroke relative to you, you tie, and if she improves by two strokes, she wins. If you both shoot the same as last time relative to each other, you win. This rewards Jill for improving and you for improving too. Each week reset the handicap to last week's difference, less one.
Also, spend some time playing putter catch at medium distances. Learning how to throw is more important than merely playing rounds. If either of you has a Skillshot you canalso putt back and forth between basket 18 and a Skillshot to practice putting. That is nice because from 20-25 feet apart you can also have a conversation.
Thanks, Bruce.
Jill-What do you think?
I posted on the PDGA board too. Thought we'd get a broader audience. We'll see on Sunday, I guess :)

No. I played by myself. :( Jill had to take care of a sick youngster. I shot a 78. Hopefully I'm saving the 68 rounds for Peoria! It would disappoint me greatly to know I only had 1 68 in me this season. The ace pool stands at $2 for the weekend after Women's Nationals? Or are we picking a different day, Jill?
:huh:

New concept for Ladies League-come out to learn or develop your skills and get a disc!
Sunday October 3
4:45 pm organizing
5:00 start time
Putting practice and driving practice, depending on the needs of those who come on by :) We've got discs and minis so you can learn the rules of play as well as develop new skills to make your game more fun :)
See you there!
My girlfriend would love to play but she always has to work on sundays usually till about six, but she said if she ever gets any sundays off, fairfield is where she is going to be :D
If she works close enough to swing by after work, we'll be there until almost dark, I think. We're going to work on putting and driving, not playing the whole park for now.
bump biddy bump bump :)

Jill and I were the only players at Ladies League. I set up our skill shot between the parking lot and #18 basket. I got their early and threw a few drives on #1 and then got out the skillshot and putters. When Jill arrived, we played a putting game-3 putters a piece, we randomly threw a mini to determine the putting distance. We each took 3 tries at each location. After 6 locations, Jill was antsy to play so with the score Jill 10, Tree 12, we set out to play holes 1-9 with a handicap of 10 for Jill. This handicapping system worked well.... There was a 2 point difference (Tree in the lead) after 9 holes. We then finished our putting contest, Tree 15, Jill 12.
The ace pool rolled over: $4 in for the first ace :)
Next week Jill will be at the Homie tourney. Stay tuned for details of our next meeting!
I'm not going to be able to go to Ladies league (or Discontinuum club league for that matter) for the next few weeks due to work. YUCK. Although throwing my neck out yesterday isn't going to allow me to play for a few weeks anyway.
Now I'm depressed.
Jill-You still doing this? I've been working a lot of Sat/Sun so I haven't been playing.
Becky, have you been throwing that 150 Z-Flick much since you got it? Kelsey has really increased her distance since she got hers.
I didn't have a connection with the flick....threw it a couple of times. Gave mine to Jon. He likes it.
