Jon

You put everyone else to shame.  Indiana State Championships was six weeks ago and still no results.

[Jon Brakel]

And I didn't even have Becky to help me this time!  

By the way, Michler played trophy only and did not win any cash. I'll fix the pro payout at home tonight.

Becky did so much work at the tournament you were not so tired on Sunday!

The ace pool is close to $300 now, as I recall.  But Jon has real numbers.

Great tournament, guys.  That course setup was really nice, a lot of interesting holes that were pretty tough.  Those final four holes were crazy.

speaking of the final 4 holes,  clearly all the practice that Brett and I put in on those holes really paid off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!      at least i got over the pond on the 3rd hole. i definitely didn't want to lose my backup Orc on saturday.

note to self:  trying to throw the disc through a wall on every shot will get u into alot of trouble.

Watching everyone dive out of the way when you threw out of those bushes was hilarious.  I cant believe anyone even found your disc.  And then there was the 30 person search team that took way too long to realize Brett's disc was sitting 5 feet above all of our heads, clearly visible.  Kurt taking a 3 on that third safari hole was incredible.  What a comeback.

[Dan Michler]

yes, Kurt Raff's 3 on the 3rd Safari Hole was definitely the highlight of the tournament in my opinion.  We practiced that hole several times and a three is awesome.  he made a perfect drive, threw a perfect shot that cleared the pond (thats a longer distance than it looks by the way), and then sank a 45 footer for the par.

i tried to kill that drive on the 2nd safari hole, which is what i did only it was in the wrong direction     i also have no idea how Clark found that thing.  had that putt stuck in the chains i could have saved a 4 on that!  oh well.

Thanks for getting those results up Jon!

Attached is the overall series points after 6 events. There are some super tight battles.

I am especially interested in the Intermediate battle!

[Cannon Boy]

It would be no battle if I could play fiarfield!!!!!!   I am in 2nd by 2 points and have only played 4 legs of the series.

[Cannon Boy]

I am playing fiarfield but just not intermediate because I am rated just over 915. So now I just have to smoke Dan at fairfield in advanced.

[Dan Michler]

i can't wait!

[Bruce Brakel]

Now that we have a website, let's have a tournament!  Anybody look good for the weekend after the Homie?

The overall trophy discs are looking good.  I'll post a pic tonight.  Also, if you want to know what the overall disc is for a particular place and division, I'll check for you.  Depending, maybe you want to shoot for third rather than second!  

[Dan Michler]

what is it for advanced.

[Bruce Brakel]

Here's a pic of the trophy disc in the pic.  I've forgotten what division and place it is.  O.k., Rec 2nd.  If the picture turned out good, a lot of them look like this.  

[Bruce Brakel]

It might look better live and in person.  Everything looks crappy on this monitor.  

[Bruce Brakel]

Here are the happy pumpkin minis I've been working on.  I had to photoshop the color, but I think this is what they look like in real life.

I'm in need of someone, preferably a club member, who is willing to play club merch man and possibly take Widdershins preregistrations this weekend at Fairfield.

[Mike S]

Can I buy a club membership at Fairfield?  Does it cost any more or less to do it online rather than in person?

[mirth]

It will cost a couple bucks more online than in person due to the service charge.

And yes, club memberships will be available at Fairfield. Also, starting this weekend new club memberships will be good for 2006 as well!
