Just a reminder- it's pretty important that you guys enter for the trilogy challenge ASAP because Tre needs the money to order the packs. Obviously it's gonna take a while for 20 or 30 something packs of 3 discs plus swag to ship to Alaska, and he wants to get the order in by the end of the month. Thanks y'all.

Hey guys. Tomorrow night is our final "regular season" league for this series. The final event is Sunday. Top 25(ish) in points will qualify. If you look at the leaderboard you'll see that there's a good chance for those of you who have never played in this league to still qualify for finals. So I'm looking forward to seeing some "new" faces tomorrow night and again on Sunday for the big finale. As usual I'll probably be making it rain with CTP prizes and ... more

If you haven't heard, we're making finals interesting with a brand new alternate layout for the back 9. See you there!

Update on great land cup, convinced ugly to change the dates to the 6th/7th to not conflict with tall grass. Hope more of y'all can make it!!! It's awesome...

Adam Klein    April 5, 2014 at 10:59pm

I left a Vibram Trak on Hole 11 yesterday...right side of fairway past the fallen cottonwood, bout 70' from basket. If anybody out there today, please give a a check for me. Thank you. A good beer reward.

Greg Rouse    April 5, 2014 at 9:47am

Insanely early registration is now open for my tournament, the Alcantra Open. You can also pay via paypal but cash is recommended and preferred, and you won't have to pay the fees. Otherwise just post your name and division as usual. Once I get a better idea of how many people plan to make it I may split it into 3 divisions.

Jake Haskin    April 5, 2014 at 12:52am

Start Savin up now people!!! Great land cup in Juneau sept 13-14, awesome/super tough course, and best time you'll have at a tourney guarenteed

Tay Harling    April 4, 2014 at 5:55am

Hello ADGA members, we will be holding our next meeting on Tuesday April 1st, 7:00 PM, at American Legion Post 28. The address is 7001 Brayton Drive. Please be advised that this is a PRIVATE members-only club, so we will all need to sign in as Eric Hepola's guests. The sign in will be on your right after you walk in. The board has also decided that our meetings will now be "dry", so if you'd like to enjoy an adult beverage you'll need to arrive before the meeting or stay afterward. No alcohol will be permitted inside the meeting. Thanks again and we'll see you there!

Addressing the March meeting….Simply, the March meeting was at a bad time for majority of the board with Memorial, Fur Rondy tourney, etc. I felt it was important for the officers to get together before having our next membership meeting. Since everybody’s time is valuable, I feel it is important that our meetings are productive and efficient. The board as a whole has a sizable to-do list to tackle and that is going to take time.

Addressing the March meeting….Simply, the March meeting was at a bad time for majority of the board with Memorial, Fur Rondy tourney, etc. I felt it was important for the officers to get together before having our next membership meeting. Since everybody’s time is valuable, I feel it is important that our meetings are productive and efficient. The board as a whole has a sizable to-do list to tackle and that is going to take time. It is better to have a meeting when we are prepared for the agenda versus having meeting just because. We have needed the time this month to get our club responsibilities organized for a constructive meeting in April. Patience and understanding from the membership that we are working to better the organization and fulfill our responsibilities will be most appreciated.

It seems there's a gstar frenzy of sorts going on... You guys should check out the factory seconds at the innova pro shop. They're like 6 bucks cheaper apiece. Also they have some other sick stuff... Gummy champion glow boss, anyone?

Tre Jones    March 10, 2014 at 5:49am

Who all bought a disc from Larry Kirk when he came up here? I'm looking for roc3's that he had if anyone here has any they would consider getting rid of or trading let me know.
