A moment of Rant.

I'm in! With some direction, I've conquered yet another computer phenomena known as "blog" or "blogging" [one who "blogs" may be known as a "blogger"]. It is just one brief stop on my maniacal journey to take over all aspects of the computer world, create a computer army of frolfers, and TAKE OVER THE PDGA!!!!!!HAHAHAHAHAAAAAA.

For all of you Dads out there, this would be a great oppurtunity to take the kids off your wives hands and give them some much needed rest on Mother's Day!

Tell your friends, bring your families and come on out to get Frolfed!

What does next weekend look like?

How about a little 3 round tourney up at the Black Creek Golf and CC next weekend? Fry and I were discussing it and it would be great to have a season opening tourney (Beers, BBQ, prize money). How about 2 rounds on Saturday and either 1 or 2 on Sunday for a three round aggregate score? Add in a couple of closest to the pin and ace prizes and voila somehitng to Blog about. If you think the dates work comment so we know and if they don't mention what would and maybe the times.

Also if anyone is interested in either throwing the Ulti disc around a the HS field (this am) or getting a game of frolf in at the the BCGCC ending before 4pm. Call me or comment on it (362.9042)

Rain, Rain Go Away...

Multiple Choice

You know that a Frolfer is keen when:
a) he makes 6 calls to try and get a game off the ground on a rainy day
b) he goes to the course and is shut out due to wetness and construction
c) he goes back to the course 3 hours later to try and "fit one in..."
d) all of the above

Correct response... d

Well that was my yesterday in a Nutshell (not really in a nutshell as I am 6'1" and wouldn't fit in any nutshell I've ever seen, unless that nut was huge and then it would probably be in a museum or something). When they finally got out there for a 6.30pm tee off Tucker, Blaine, Fry and Peach were ready to make things happen. They decided to play a little different match, bringing in the "Lone Wolf" game. Due to lack of mathematical skills, and/or an abundence of safety meetings the boys lost track of the Wolf scores and settled into the game at had... getting Benner's #1 tag.

Peach went out with a bang. Birdies on 5 of the first 6 rushed him into the lead. Fry was putting like a champ and was close behind at -3 after the first 6 holes. Benner was up and down and hoovering aroung par, finishing +1; with Tucker reverting to his ultra conservative alter ego, Chris, blowing up for a +5. When the match was drawing to an end Peach birdied 17 to pull with in one stroke of Fry's -7. Peach hit the smallest branch off the 18th Tee and pretty much ended his chances at winning outright. Fry calmly rocked up and BAM hit a small branch and gave P a window of oppurtunity. The window was painted shut or broken or dirty or whatever... Both made par and Fry, with his ultra putting skills, regained the #1 status.

Today's Scouting Report

Tucker - needs to get back to his creative self and make things happen. Too Conservative.
Benner - New Discs. End of Story.
Fry - If he starts getting the drives going...course records look out!
Peach - Off the Tee, the fruit is on his game but... "Drive for Show. Putt for Dough!"

Monday Afternoon at the Links

Benner, Peach and Bash battled it out on the links at Eagle Ridge in a eventful yet mediocre round. Bash who hadn't tossed a disc since arriving back from the good life a Mike Wiegles, played a superb round shooting +2 while carding 2 doubles and possibly a triple. He was steady on the rest making a fantastic birdie put on 17 to steal honours for the last tee. Benner and Peach were up and down both carding a double in the mix and ended up on the 18th with Benner (current #1 tag) at -4 and Peach at -2. The round seemed as good as over with Peach conceding the match stating "Well let's see something exciting here since the game is over!" Benner subsequently stepped up and tossed, what was supposed to be a S bend out into the soccer field, a nasty left to right nearly 20 yards to the right of the new "RV" and into the marshy area. The door was open. Peach coolly knocked one into the soccer field thinking par can force a playoff. Benner rallied with a huge hammer and followed with a weak backhand that barely made the left bank. Peach lying 2 to the bank waited his turn. Benner hit a branch and was lying 4 to Peach's 2. Benner then gets up and throws for his 5 getting it to within a gimmie and salvaging a 6. One would think that Peach would safely make par and force the playoff. Well on a day where the Peach's putter was pretty much non existent nothing was for sure. After a weak putt/approach P was left with a 15 footer to force a playoff. Let's just say that Benner still has the #1 tag.

Did I mention Bash threw the disc well?
