August 2015 Pro Q&A's with Nate Sexton
I got a hold of Nate Sexton and he was quick with a reply to the questions I sent him. Nate Sexton has a current PDGA rating of 1030 and he is currently ranked 10th in the world, Nate has 78 PDGA sanctioned wins. Nate is a great example in person or as a professional disc golfer.
Question: Brandon Goldner asks what is your pre-shot routine?
Answer: My pre shot routine is picking my specific aim point, walking to the front of the tee and kicking off any debris, perhaps a disc flip or two, ...

Word from the TD... Free Brew with your entry buy in...
Body of the postFree Beer at the Brew at the Poo???
Yes, that is a fact. Due to a miscue with our original provider of suds, we were left without magic liquid for our event. Two Kilts Brewing in Sherwood stepped up after hearing about our disc golf project and our Brew at the Poo fundraising event. The owners flat out donated what we needed to keep you responsible drinkers refreshed. The laws says that we can't charge for it without a permit, so we are forced to give it away.

UPDATE: Wheatland DGC
It felt good to get out and Do Work at Wheatland Disc Golf Course today. It was a chainsaw day. Dove head and shoulders right into the poison oak with a chainsaw and cut out a nice inside lane of Hole 16. We cut out a few filbert trees next to tee pads also. Mike stuck around and mowed fareways. I will work on printing new temp tee signs as well as the course map. Wheatland DGC should be playing pretty nice this summer... Hard to believe we only opened it up 9 months ago.
i will send you and email Jake.... our main issue with Wheatland tee signs is the State Parks not letting us put signs up yet
Wheatland is in great shape! Gotta get out there and get another round in.

Hang Lake upgrade from what I understand would be a total remodel in a new location at the park.
Wow that would be amazing! You guys have big plans. I love it.
The best course not that many play. It's perfect the way it is. Well maybe a little tee pad help. Too bad they cut the grass more people are showing up. Amazingly peaceful in the winter time.

Thank you rain! The rain today will allow us to get more mowing and work done without fire danger! We ordered Walk Out Signs and should be here by the end of the July.

We are hoping to have accurate hole lengths soon and the Tee Signs could go in August also (we hope). The State Park will be installing a net to protect the Park H ... more

Woman disfigured in park disc golf incident
http://www.dailybreeze.com/general-news/20140215/woman-disfigured-in-park-disc-golf-incident-suing-manhattan-beach
A great reason to have a ligit designer when building a course...
Players should be more careful in these close-quarters situations, too. Sounds like spotters were needed, or the hole should have been skipped altogether. If we players can't police ourselves, we'll start seeing courses shut down at a time when the sport is really taking off. Not a good sign!
Just a reminder... just because you can, doesn't mean you should

UPDATE: Keizer Rapids DGC stolen basket
So... we were able to raise $100 from 9 people that showed up for the Drive It Like You Stole It tourney... PacWest will match those funds raised and I have requested a match of $200 from Keizer Parks Foundation (of which I have been assured will be granted) will cover the cost of a new Basket and shipping. The goodies for the tourney winners will be in this week... Sorry I didn't have them on the day of the event.
Cheers and thanks to the few that showed up to do the right thing to help replace the stolen basket!!!!

My big thanks also go out to the 9 of us that were able to make it out for the cause. Looks like Pac-West and few others will be getting a basket replaced shortly. Well done to all of us involved.

Items discussed
Layout and design. The Parks Supervisor asked us to reevaluate a small part of the course where Hole 1 and Hole 18 conflict with horse boarding and bike camping. We concur with his concerns, and we will review these basic changes with the three Oregon Pro Disc Golfers that we have assembled to help in the final draft of the Wheatland DGC design.

The "unofficial official announcement"
I have been working on getting a new DGC in at Willamette Mission State Park, north of Keizer, near the Wheatland Ferry. Nothing will be official until the first branch is cut on the first fairway during the first clearing/work party.
Planning on par 56, (maybe 58- fingers crossed) with both wooded and more open holes.
I'll post more as more news becomes available!
Hope you are as excited about this as we are!!!

Disc Golf Marathon-100 Hole Tourney for Canyonview Camp Fundriaser
We are looking at running a 100 tourney for Canyonview Camp, Maybe May 11th, that would be our first time having the real course layout in place. It would be like a Jog-a-thon in fundraising format, in that each participant would try to raise $2.00-$10.00 per hole from outside sources, businesses, family and friends. Each buisness may only give $0.05 a hole, so there will need to be some kind of commitment. The goal is to raise $27,000 for our Camp. Our regular golf (like with a club and ball) f ... more
May 11th would make it a birthday party for me, what a way to spend it I guess. 100 holes around that course should either get my exercise for the day or make sure I don't make it to my next one. Should be good day either way.
YEAH!! And the format will have you throw 2-3 shots per hole if desired so one only has to walk the course 2 times.
OH MY ROD MR MOORE! WHAT A COMMENT...I LOVE IT! ILL BE WE WILL ENJOY MANY B-DAYS WITH YA GNOME

1%ers
Pac-West DGA is moving forward on a service reward program for 2013. We are calling it “1%ersâ€. We will be providing rewards for time and production of work done during major projects on Disc Golf Courses. 1%ers will receive discs, clothing, and bag patches depending on how many hours they provide on major projects. Major project coordinators will receive double time towards rewards. We are looking forward to 2013 being a great year for the growth of Disc Golf!
As long as I decide to do CCDG web site updates I could put info there if people make me aware of work dates.
This will be the art work attached to the 1%ers http://www.discgolfscene.com/profile/20885/pictures/album_9922/178523#178523
