Man it was cold at 6:00 AM.. not see your breath cold, November in Arizona cold.. like a mild hint of discomfort in shorts and a light jacket. By the players meeting we knew there was a beautiful day ahead. Two 19-hole rounds, 3-hole playoff to determine the open winner (David Taylor Jr.), an ACE pool shoot out (congrats Joe Bill on the win), and a nerve-racking raffle (Mach X basket for Preston). Thank you to the participants and volunteers!
The Fountain Hills Thank You Tournament is just a few days away. Click here to view the caddy book. It’s a fun & unique layout to show off the future new tee pads and new basket positions. There are different pads and baskets for Rec/Women vs Adv/Open and a few baskets will change between the 1st and 2nd round.
Don’t forget to pre-register to secure your players pack and bring cash for the raffle.. yeah, we got some good stuff.
Hey man, I like spending my Thanksgiving weekend waddling about shopping centers (only stopping to jam on a turkey-stuffing-gravy-burrito) as much as the next guy. But check it out.. the Fountain Hills Disc Golf Club is throwing down an unsanctioned Thank You Tournament on Saturday Nov 29th.
A few months ago I hit a 150-200′ ace in a tournament.. but I don’t think it counts because it was an Ace Race tournament.
This evening I hit a 200′ ace from an actual tee-pad to a permanent basket.. but I don’t think it counts because I was in solo-practice mode.
So what qualifies as a legit-respected-actual Ace? I think these are no-brainers:
On May 31st the FHDGC hosted a tournament to raise funds for new tee signs. Division winners, Jason Barela (Pro), Bill McDonough (AM), Trina Lettig (Women) & Sara Lange (Women) were awarded with their names on one of the new tee signs.
