2010 WORLDS

[KenGmoney1]

Today was a lot of fun. Dave Nelson and I got to pay on the lead card together for the second round.  The highlight of my day was my ace on hole 18 the first round at Delaware state park. That $ will help pay for some tournaments!

How long is the hole? What disc did you throw?

Are you sure it's being paid out in ca$h? Wasn't it paid out in funny money in 2007?

Keep up the good shooting!

For those playing the Pro Worlds:
Where are you staying?
Carla and I are planning on attending. At least one of us is playing...still not sure which one.
$215 x 2 + Hotel = A Whole Lotta Loot!

Staying in Merrillville, but not sure where quite yet. Need to hop on Priceline and get it reserved.

Nice ace Kenny! - I thought worlds was in Ohio?

Tear it up, everyone!

How about the flymart?  What did you guys get for player packages?  Did anyone stop by the Vibram booth? 

[Bruce Brakel]

The player pack was a t-shirt, a mini, a Nuke, a Squall, and a Katana.  If you did not print out the materials on pdga.com you were kind of screwed because the TD didn't bother to put the schedules and the area maps in the player pack.  Fortunately, we always plan for half-assed Worlds and we printed out all that stuff.

The flymart was a lot less interesting than past flymarts, mostly retailers selling new discs.  Vibram was there.  The other smaller and newer manufacturers were a no-show. There were a couple of guys doing wildcat flymarting in the parking lot -- they had all the cool stuff. 

I sucked today at Alum Creek.  I think I made all my putts.  I did not make many drives on the holes that don't have fair ways. You can take my score, subtract 54, and then you know how many holes don't really have a fair way.  It is a lot like Coldbrook used to be. I have had no tree love all week, but only today I really needed some.

Looks like Kiralyn and Diana are keeping it steady.  Diana is playing really well if you know that she is throwing almost all her drives with her off hand, so I thought I'd mention that.  Her surgical knee is not fully game ready so she is mostly driving righty and throwing upshots and putts lefty.

Keep up the great showing guys! (and Brakel ladies!)

We stayed at the LaQuinta for the Illiana and I don't recommend it. The whole place had an off odor. The breakfast was sparse and not well made (hard boiled eggs were boiled to the point of becoming super ball-like). Our room was not cleaned and we were not given fresh towels on Saturday. They wound up giving us the second night free because we were not happy but I would have happily paid for a second night at a less crappy place.

Diabetic getting some good air time on Wednesday's Clash footage...if only he would fix his hat

  Dave Nelson is tearing it UP!!

After 5 rounds, he's in second with a -32.  Wiggins Jr is rocking the tourny with a -45!

Live scoring just fired up. Nelson with a 3 on the 1st hole.

[Bruce Brakel]

Kira and Diana both moved up to 3rd after their morning rounds.  They have an afternoon round.  Kira has a semi tomorrow and Diana goes to the Final 9 if she's in the top four -- no semi. 

I think I'm now in a tie for 8th going into the semis.  I played very conservative in the woods to avoid another Alum Creek.  On one 350 foot tunnel hole I threw my butter 150 off the tee and got the other 200 with a mid-range.  The advanced players rated 971 with the score I shot, but it only felt like 950. 

My feet are tired.  I'm looking forward to the semis.

Do you call your putter "butter" because it's so smooth?

Aw nuts. I was looking for hot diabetic action and was hoping the link would take me to 'Hypoglycemics Gone Wild' or something....

[tacimala]

Can anyone paste a direct link here to live scoring? At wrigley and can open the popup on my phone. Thanks!
