Ace Race Prototype Revealed!
07/26/2010 1:26 p.m. by Kevin

So.. Discraft finally released what the 2010 Ace Race disc will be. An overstable mid-range!

 

From Discraft:

2010 prototype disc revealed  

Players have been asking for something more overstable, and in our 8th year we finally decided to give in. Here you go, sports fans!

The 2010 Ace Race prototype is a fast, overstable midrange. It has good speed for a mid, longer glide than you'll expect, and a medium strong finish. When you turn it over it will always come back unless you really torque it. Will hold a line in a moderate to strong headwind. We are looking forward to hearing the chains you ring with it!

Mini @ 6:00 Tonight @ Audubon!
07/21/2010 08:25 a.m. by Kevin

Results:

Coan and McDougal took 1st with a -7. Two teams tied for second with -5 and a handful of other teams tied at -4 for third. We had to have a CTP to determine second place... Rusty will probably post the official stats in the Audubon thread :) 32 players showed, no aces were hit as the pot keeps getting bigger!


$5 per person plus $1 for the ace pot gets you into this week's Audubon Mini! Starts @ 6:00 PM by hole #16 and #7 in the parking lot. Draw Doubles, BRING IT.

 

As always, there will not be a pot luck dinner included with your entry fee.

 

 

See you there!

Wednesday Night Mini!
07/14/2010 10:53 p.m. by Kevin

I think we broke another record tonight... 34 players? Sweet! Jack and I think his name was Brett (I'm awful with names) won tonight with a -7. Rusty has all of the scorecards, so maybe he can post them in the Audubon thread :)

 

Also, the ace pot wasn't hit again.. Bringing the total to around $50 now in only two minis! This bad boy is going to get big fast!

Winners:

This week's mini @ Audubon
06/08/2010 07:35 a.m. by Kevin

This week we're going to go with $5 as the ONLY option for entry (no more discs instead of cash). Once we start getting big turnouts, payout will be too complicated with cash and plastic. So starting this week (6/9/10) you must pay $5 cash to play.

As the mini grows we'll add ace pots and divisions as well! I'm also looking into bag tags currently, so cool stuff is coming :)

See you guys Wednesday @ 6:00!

Hey guys,

This Sunday is the Pro-Life Charity Disc Golf Picnic at Turner Park in Grand Prarie. It's also the same weekend as the ZBoaz Open.. But if anyone isn't playing that, this is a great event for a good cause. Dan Norman and his wife put on the tournament and they're super nice people.

It's not a PDGA sanctioned event, but it's a cheap entry fee and you get a custom stamped disc as well as lunch for signing up. Winners also will receive merchandise.


A lot of members have mentioned playing.. You can register online at: www.protectlifedgc.webs.com

A C-tier preview for the Mr. Jim's Carrollton Open!

TitleDISC is proud to present the Carrollton Clash!

Designed as a preview for the Mr. Jim's Carrollton Open in September, we will be using both courses in Carrollton (Jimmy Porter and Greenbelt) in their full 21-hole layouts. We will have a FREE Mr. Jim's Pizza lunch provided at the course, and first place in each amateur division will get a FREE entry into the Mr. Jim's Carrollton Open in September!

We will use our one-day-Sunday format with flex-start doubles all day on Saturday. 2 rounds of 21 holes on Sunday, using both courses. Monday is a Holiday for most people, so this schedule should allow for a very fun and relaxing weekend :)

Jason Hull, Cory Flippin, and many other local disc golfers have been hard at work improving the new layout for Jimmy porter. This is a great opportunity to get out and play the new layout in tournament form. We will have lots of great TitleDISC gear, including some tournament stamps from the last two Carrollton Open events. Come out and see what Carrollton has to offer!

TitleDisc Open This Weekend in Rockwall!
04/28/2010 9:26 p.m. by Kevin

Hey everyone.. In case you don't know this weekend is the 3rd Annual TitleDisc open in Rockwall, TX at Harry Myers park! A ton of DGD members have already signed up but the field is limited to 100 players so make sure you go to www.TitleDisc.com to register for the tournament if you want to play! It's a PDGA Sanctioned B-Tier event! Josh and Deidre run a great tournament if no one has ever been to one before.. Be sure to check this one out!

http://www.TitleDisc.com

Description of the tournament from TitleDisc.com:

The TitleDISC Open is our premiere event every year. We are proud to bring it back to Rockwall again for 2010!

Harry Myers Park is one of the best 18-hole parks in North Texas. John Houck did a fantastic job designing this course a few years ago. The design makes great use of the park's natural elevation, vegetation, obstacles, and boundaries. Two teeboxes on many of the holes provide a challenge for all skill levels. Using Discatcher baskets, concrete tees, and HouckDesign signage in this already gorgeous park, the City of Rockwall has a disc golf course that will aesthetically rival any course in the area. These are just a few of the reasons why we choose to host our flagship event in Rockwall, TX. We are sure that players of all skill levels will enjoy this course, this City, and this event.

We will be using the TitleDISC Open logo that has become so popular with our players. We will have custom-stamped discs, custom scorecards, and lots of cool prizes and added cash. We intend to have a special bonus for 1st place in each division, as well :).

Using our popular 1-day-Sunday format for the B-tier, we will also be hosting a World's Biggest event on Saturday in combination with the normal TDO doubles. This will include a round of competition for beginners and advanced players alike, followed by a clinic for beginners and the TDO doubles for anyone who chooses to compete. The Rockwall Disc Golf Association is a new club in the area, and they will be helping run the WBDGW (World's Biggest Disc Golf Weekend) festivities. All of that will take place on Saturday as a warm-up for Sunday's big show :)

Sunday will be two rounds of 20 holes. For the TDO, we add two holes to the normal 18, including the infamous island hole! Advanced and Pro divisions will play the long teeboxes for round 1, and the short tees for round 2. Intermediate and Rec divisions will play the short boxes both rounds. There will be a CTP during round two for all cards, as well as a Ring of Fire for everyone to participate in while scores are being tallied.

This has been a great event the past two years, and has filled in advance each time. We can hold a maximum of 100 players for Sunday's event. Doubles on Saturday is flex-start, so we don't have to limit the number of players. Hopefully those who don't get signed up in time to nab one of the 100 spots will still come out and have some fun with us on Saturday. See you all in Rockwall!

Kjones wins CTP Competition at Rockwall DGA Ice Bowl!
02/28/2010 10:27 p.m. by Kevin

Congrats to the stud Kjones who took the CTP competition during Rockwall DGA's Ice Bowl over the weekend! Chan Man, Kjones, dman avant, and myself all played in the tournament. It was a lot of fun despite not cashing for me. Kjones came in 7th in Rec, Chan Man in 15th, and dman didn't get last out of 43 total Rec players. I took a whopping 10th place in open out of under 20 players thanks to an epic hole 17 meltdown. OB is dumb :)

Here's a pic of that stud Kjones with his $25 CTP winnings!

Some of us were thinking about playing an early morning round or two out in Rockwall at Harry Myers Saturday. It would have to be early, start time around 8:00ish AM. It will most likely be a muddy mess, but the Rockwall DGA is hosting an Ice Bowl on the 27th and this might be the last weekend to get some practice in.

Anyone down?

A few DiscGolfDallas.com members played in the Dynamic Discs Winter Warm Up at Lake Lewisville Park and LL Woods over the weekend. I was able to meet chopz33 during the Ring of Fire which was pretty awesome. We both had some good runs but didn't end up winning any of the rounds.

I played Intermediate and was able to win after a 3-way tie for first resulted in a match play playoff. 46 players were in the intermediate division. Next up, Advanced :) Kjones also cashed in Rec, so it was a pretty good showing for DGD all around.

Thanks again to Jeremy Rusco and everyone at Dynamic Discs for another killer tournament with just shy of 200 players for the 1 day event!

Weekend Tournaments Results
02/01/2010 00:52 a.m. by Kevin

Just wanted to give an update from this weekend's Dynamic Discs tournaments.. I played the Turner Park Tune Up Saturday (my first PDGA tournament) and won Rec! Looks like I'm moving up, sweet. Nikko Locastro won Open with Eric McCabe and JD Ramirez taking 2nd and 3rd. It was pretty great watching those studs lay it down and talk to a lot of them.

Jeremy and everyone from Dynamic Discs put on a killer tournament and I look forward to playing the Winter Warmup next weekend in Lewsville along with any others they put on in the area from now on! Thanks a ton Jeremy!

kjones and Chan Man also played the Towne Lake Pro/Am but unfortunately I couldn't make it.

I'll put a video of accepting my 1st place disc amongst screams of "bagger" in the forums. (Edit: Added to blog entry by Tommy)

DG Filled Weekend
01/24/2010 9:40 p.m. by Kevin

Lots of disc golf this weekend with a lot of DGD members. Thanks to everyone who came out for some sloppy, rainy, sunny, mushy, hot, cold, and windy games! In particular - Tommy, Tim (tajsss), Drew (gibbdog21), Jackson, Jimmy (Jim7499).

Some thoughts after playing rounds this weekend:

  • Paschall Park is basically underwater. It seems to be getting worse. I plan on speaking with a friend in the Parks and Rec dept. to try and brainstorm any ideas on getting the terrible drainage under control and see how we can help.
  • LL Woods park is going to be hell if it's anywhere near as windy as it was this afternoon for the Winter Warmup tourney on 2/6.
  • I was able to get Tommy (The stud developer and partner of DGD) out on the course not once, or twice, but THRICE today for a whopping 54 holes of golf. We hit Lake Park, LL Woods, and Paschall. No easy task for anyone in 17 MPH winds, much less a beginner. Surprisingly enough, the old man didn't break a hip and hit some good pars and birdies! Good to get you out there Tom!
  • I found a First Run Pro Teebird sitting in the used bin at Play it Again Sports in pretty good condition for $5. Pretty stoked about that. Jack, you can have it for $25 and some Funyuns.
  • ESP Surge is slowly becoming the greatest disc of all time for me. It does anything I want it to within 200-400 feet.
  • I've been wanting to buy some waterproof shoes but hating the idea of spending $125 on them. I found a pair of Hi-Tec Brand Waterproof Hiking shoes for $60 at Sports Authority and they came with a 1 year warranty with full reimbursement if anything fails on the shoe. I went a good 3-4 inches deep in water/mud today at Paschall with no wetness. They were also very comfortable. If anyone is looking for a decent WP discgolf shoe but don't want to spend a ton lilke me, you might want to check them out.
  • And lastly, I'm expecting a call from the City of Mesquite tomorrow to confirm hosting a World's Biggest Disc Golf Weekend at Paschall Park on May 1st, 2010. It's about to be on like Donkey Kong.

Now, for some pics!

Jack and Drew wondering why all of their shoes have become "disc golf shoes"

I'll probably be hitting Porter in Mesquite or BB Owen in Dallas throughout the week for some night golf this week. Next weekend will be busy with the Dynamic Discs tournaments at Turner and possibly Towne Lake. I didn't register for Towne Lake, but I still might.

Saturday Disc Golf Mayhem
01/17/2010 01:35 a.m. by Kevin

Phew, what a busy day of DG it's been. Today we hit super sloppy Turner Park early this morning, and it was challenging. We moved on to Towne Lake in McKinney afterwards and it turned out to be a very nice afternoon. Thanks to Tim (tajsss), Drew (gibbdog21), Chandler (Chan Man), and Jones (kjones) for coming out today! The mobile scorecard again was a success as we used it on both courses and uploaded the rounds automatically with the push of a button as soon as the round ended!

Site update: Weather forecast now available in Course Directory. Check it out before you go get blizzarded on. :)

(Side Note from Tommy: Weather/Wind also shows in the mobile scorecard as well as stores so viewers of your round can see what the weather and wind were like that day!)

In other news, Shawn was a no show which shocked no one. Good talk.


Now for some pictures from today!

This is what the back of an SUV should look like on Saturday. Minus Jones's pink Fade bag of course:


 

Chandler making it look good as usual:



 

Tim putting and fishing:


 

Jones saving bogey with the reverse triple no look thumber and slamming some chainage:



Drew pondering the survival percentage/legal ramifications and then flicking so hard his right hand turned to mush:


 

Myself deep in thought at the end of this drive mulling over a tough decision, "Whether or not to have that 3rd sandwich"



 

Thanks guys, had a blast! Scores are posted as always if you want to see the rounds! Look forward to seeing more people next weekend! If you have a request for a specific course, post it in the forum!

Turner Park Saturday 1/16/10 & New Mobile Scorecard
01/14/2010 8:10 p.m. by Kevin

Turner Park Meet and Greet:

We're going to be playing Turner Park this upcoming Saturday 1/16/10. Many of us plan on playing in the Dynamic Discs Turner Park Tune Up in a couple of weeks, so I plan on hitting Turner hard for the next little while. It's a B-Tier PDGA Sactioned Tournament. If you want to come out Saturday, feel free! As always, I'll give a free DGD shirt to the first person that shows!

Mobile Scorecard Update:

In other news, the exclusive DiscGolfDallas.com mobile scorecard is ready for beta testing and use by everyone. The scorecard uses an existing internet connection on your cell phone to record rounds while playing. I've used this many times successfully along with a few other members. You simply log into mobile.discgolfdallas.com from your phone's browser and follow the steps. Once the round is completed, it will automatically upload the scores to each member that played's profile as well as show up on the "recent rounds" box on the home page. When you click on any one of the rounds from a players profile, it will pop up an official DGD scorecard with every member's round on one card. You can also leave comments talking smack to one another afterwards. It's an awesome way to keep scores, and track your stats online, all from the palm of your hand! Check it out!

Steps:

  • Point your browser on your mobile phone to http://mobile.discgolfdallas.com
  • Log in using your Username and Password for DGD
  • Select a course
  • Add each player using their username from the site
  • Use the drop downs to record scores after every hole
  • At the end click Review, then Complete afterwards to upload score automatically!

 

Note: The mobile scorecard is still currently undergoing cosmetic changes as well as additions, but we feel confident enough to allow everyone to start using it now! It functions fine, just doesn't have all of the bells and whistles quite yet :)

DGD @ Cedar Hill
01/10/2010 7:31 p.m. by Kevin

Thanks to Jack, Jimmy, Drew, and Chad for joining me Saturday at Cedar Hill for some cold disc golf! The cold made it for a tough round due to frozen fingers and stiff discs but we had a blast! We'll be hitting Turner Park next weekend!

Some pics below from Saturday!

 

Drew with a smooth 25 footer:


Myself with a routine 10 footer or so. I'm either tired or making my O face. I hope that's not my O face:


Jack the chainbanger:


Chuey on a drive:


 

We had a Chupacabra sighting on one of the holes, or possibly the Mexican Bigfoot. Look close! No, wait... That's just Jimmy:

 

 

Drew actually shanked a drive that landed on a beaver dam in the middle of this pond. He carefully scaled the dam and threw a nice 50 ft thumber to set up a par saving putt:


Look close, you can see Jack's pink Monarch sitting in the top of this tree. No penalty stroke was awarded as the TD didn't put the 2 meter rule in effect before play. Next time Jack, I'll T you up son.


 

There's me modeling the DiscGolfDallas.com shirt proudly. Darn Paparazzi gets me everywhere these days:


Thanks again to everyone for coming out, I also have some new shirts with a different logo coming in this week! If you want one, shoot me an email or visit the pro shop! I look forward to seeing everyone out again next weekend!
