How bout the Indy intermediate's?

And of course if 'Mad Phatter' is chosen it leaves great opportunity for beer sponsorship or at least course beer recommendation. I'm a Phan.

The mad hatter does hang out in... Wonderland. That might be more palatable for a park.

I like Mad Phatter. It will be on the list. My guess is that the county will never go for it.

Scott White    September 17, 2009 at 11:37am

Mad Phatter is saweet, I like

Daemon Stahlin    September 17, 2009 at 11:27am

1 vote for mad phatter, or at least mad hatter if the park is still shooting down great ideas. also, yes please consult the drukiseses.

Good news though. The park has expressed interest in a plaque in honor of Chuck D.

Mike Fortunato    September 17, 2009 at 11:09am

How about 'Liberty' or perhaps 'The Unicorn'....wait....dammit Pete!!!

Joe Monteith    September 17, 2009 at 11:04am

How about: 'The Mad Phatter' in honor of one of Chuck's favorite expressions used to describe things that are dope such as "mad phat beats" or "wow, this course is mad phat". Either way i think it should still have some tie to Chuck. Scotty - Drop a line to Eddie and Ian to see if they have any insight

It's good to hear that the Chuck D course is coming along. Is it going to be a one-shot installation, or are there plans to put in a few holes here and there as we go along?

Scott White    June 22, 2009 at 10:08am

And the Picnic Course will go back in the ground October 18th.. :)

Chuck D Course Update: I met with Brian and Bill at Indy Lake and here is the story: We have most of the holes approved and the park has been working hard at clearing out a lot of the autumn olive trees. We will not use any of these envasive plants as part of the course design. We had some bad luck with the weather though, and it will push out the course installation towards the end of summer. Holes 15-18 will not be able to go in until contractors come in to remove a bunch of concrete ... more

Chuck D Course Update:
I met with Brian and Bill at Indy Lake and here is the story: We have most of the holes approved and the park has been working hard at clearing out a lot of the autumn olive trees. We will not use any of these envasive plants as part of the course design.

We had some bad luck with the weather though, and it will push out the course installation towards the end of summer. Holes 15-18 will not be able to go in until contractors come in to remove a bunch of concrete piles. The contractors cannot come in until the area dries up. It was just getting dry and we got 4" of rain on Friday, se we are wet again.

We also have to tweak a few of the holes once we find out where the new road will go in. The park will eventually re-route the main park entrance and it will run on the east side of the Chuck D course. So this will essentially be the outer limit we have to design to, and we don't know for sure where the road will go. We also have some plans for walkways, a few raised teepads and more trees need to be cleared. So that all adds up to push out the basket installation. We originally hoped this would be as easy as the picnic course but it is not. However I do believe in the end all of this extra effort will be worth it.

I will post up future work days, of which we will need a few. I think best case is the park comes back with a road location, the wet area dries up so the contractors can clear and we sink the baskets by late July. The weather is the biggest factor in all of this though. Stay tuned.

I just played the Chuck D Memorial course, and the picnic course for the last time this morning. It was a beautiful morning with no wind, and plenty of sunshine. I enjoyed great company, a generally relaxing round although when you are playing against Pat B you can never really relax. A morning like this was only made possible today by the efforts of people like Josh Romine, Scott White, and the entire 101 organization for everything they've done to make these courses possible.

I just played the Chuck D Memorial course, and the picnic course for the last time this morning. It was a beautiful morning with no wind, and plenty of sunshine. I enjoyed great company, a generally relaxing round although when you are playing against Pat B you can never really relax. A morning like this was only made possible today by the efforts of people like Josh Romine, Scott White, and the entire 101 organization for everything they've done to make these courses possible. On behalf of myself, and all of my friends who have had the pleasure to play these courses I would like to give a big thanks to 101. Thank you guys!

Friday morning the 1st of May, I need help going to Discraft to get baskets, put the baskets together, place the baskets, and put finishing touches on the Chuck D Memorial Course at Independence. I will also need help taking the course out of the ground Saturday evening immediately after the tournament. This includes taking the baskets apart. If it sounds like work, then I have described this correctly. Call me 734-272-2441. A crescent wrench and socket set will help.
