Why Buffalo Grove Sucks

[Mike S]

I decided to try and get a round in before dark today.  I ended up meeting some people I knew out on the course and joining their group.  It was getting pretty dark by the last hole, and we couldnt see dark-colored discs very well at all.  I managed to knock my drive into the first tree, but pulled out my wizard and put it right next to the basket, halfway on the cart path.  I then went to help someone else look around for their red disc, which was nearly impossible to see.  In the meantime a group of kids was walking around the basket of 9 / teepad of 1 area.  We find this guy's disc, make our way up to the basket, and of course my disc is gone.  This is the third time someone has snagged one of my discs while I was helping someone else find theirs on this course.  Its unbelievable.  The last two times I walked the course backwards asking people, and both times I was met by kids who were unusually eager to show me that they didnt have my disc, but "think they saw it sitting right over there".  No balls at all.  This time it was too late.  I think I'm just about done with this course, which is a shame because its so convenient for me to play there.

Sooo, in the unlikely event that someone here comes across a 13 year old playing with a white wizard and has the name "Mike Schlaak" on it, please feel free to slap him for me, as it was my main approach disc.  Also, if anyone has a max weight E Wizard, I am interested in buying it or trading for it.  Not too many places to pick one up around here and I dont feel like waiting for IOS 7.  I will gladly part with my:

Z Wasp
X Storm
Champ. Sidewinder
KC Gazelle
Champ. Valkyrie (170ish or 150)
S Demon

Thanks.

sorry to rain on your parade even more, but the only e wizards the club has are 168ish. If we do another order before the Widdershins I'll keep you in mind.

sorry people are dorks.

This is not a Buffalo Grove problem. This is a problem with about 1 to 5% of the population...much of that population being young people who gravitate to activities that are free.

You will find these things happening on any of the area courses that are fairly busy. Keep an eye on your discs. Hole out and then help someone look or mark your lie with a twig or leaf and pick up your disc and help the other guy look.

the demon is also slightly used.  Maybe played 2 rounds with it.  A few small dings, nothing major.  170 or 171g, I cant remember.  I will definitely trade if you want it.
