very awesome turnout considering the amount of snow on the ground.  I guess a lot of players are itching to get out and play some disc golf

I'm still frustrated that I lost mine.  The only reason I did was because I slipped on the tee and it skidded into the snow.  Needed some of Tom's chalk   At least I found a disc in my stock that was only one gram higher, so just in case someone found mine or took it from the lost & found I have a backup plan!

first trip out to the course resulted in no found discs.  There was a new layer of snow that filled in a lot of the walked on areas - that's actually a good thing as it will delay how quickly the thaw (which is happening now) will show the missing discs.  Hopefully that will give us a chance to find them before someone who doesn't plan on returning them to their rightful owners does.

I only saw a couple new sets of tracks, but no evidence of any discs being picked up.  So if they are still out there, they are probably still well hidden.

I'll be back out there tomorrow I'm sure.

went back out there today again at lunch - slush city out there!  oh man am I glad it wasn't like this the day of the tournament.  Hole 4 was a disaster area, and I sure am glad that I was wearing my (mostly) waterproof boots.  I did, however, recover 3 discs today.  1 owner has been notified, another one will be tonight, and the 3rd one will be if I can figure out the area code.  The name doesn't match any of the players on the tournament page, so it was probably a casual player from a different day that lost the disc.

If you lost a disc, please PM me the approximate location so that I can go search.  2 of the 3 that I found were only because the person told me where they think the disc went down.  It's still VERY tough to find a disc out there.

Supposed to be another 8 to 12 inches of snow about to whack this area tomorrow? I think, so I may only have one more chance to go search until there's a major thaw.

the whacking will start around nightfall.
