Well, typically these posts are done by our fearless leader, Rumble. But since he was in Japan this past week representing our Spassland league among many other USA disc golfers, I thought I would take this time to post a tribute to him along with some details about this weeks league.
First off, a HUGE congratulations goes to to our Open League leader, Mr Rumble. He has spent the past 7+ days in Japan playing in the Japan Open. For those of you not familiar with this tournament, it is a 150 c ...

What a great night for some golf! We had our biggest group of the season on Thursday with 16 golfers. We we’re joined by two new players Steve and Sam. Please help them to feel at home when they are in your group. It was great to see Tammy, long time no talk…hopefully we’ll see more of you. We played alternate tee’s for the second half of our round and I think everyone liked them. Rumble shot the course up, getting re ... more
It was nice to meet new faces this week, Stephanie and Bonnie. They are friends of Matt A and under his suggestion they came to play. I know it was a little wet out there and it was a bit windy but Danny you need to man up on crappy days like this. We took a vote and headed off to our hole assigments. Three groups of 4. Two new players in my group, I have to say I was quite impressed with both of their play. I can’t say they are straight up beginners but Iâ€&tra ...

It’s nice to have league running again but this cold weather just sucks! We dawned our winter hats and gloves, I know a couple of you guys had shorts on with a little extra gear on top. Dane pulled out a hand warmer (said his taco was cold).
We started out with CTP before the round, and I kind of liked it. We went out in 2 groups of 5, I liked the camaraderie that comes with this size group. I also liked watching Danny sweat a nine foot putt so we could get our star duce hol ...

Welcome to the 2010 spring season of Lifetime Disc Sports-Spassland Disc League...LDS-SDL
Not a very big turn out but lots of familiar faces and one new player Jason Fenton.
What a beautiful evening to start things off! A little breezy but the sun was nice and warm.
There where 3 groups of 3 which played very quickly, I believe we got done with awards and where out of there in about 1and a half hours.
In the Rec division there where two players, Jason/Walleye, and little Rumble. Little R ...

End of Spring League
It’s great to back in the US of A! I had an extraordinary time in Japan as a competitor and as an ambassador for our country and sport. I wish I could share every moment with each of you. I’ll begin by telling you that we were all treated like royalty and that everyone involved with this tournament went above and beyond their call of duty. I’ve been to a few tourneys in my travels and this is the best of the best in my experience.

It’s great to back in the US of A! I had an extraordinary time in Japan as a competitor and as an ambassador for our country and sport. I wish I could share every moment with each of you. I’ll begin by telling you that we were all treated like royalty and that everyone involved with this tournament went above and beyond their call of duty. I’ve been to a few tourneys in my travels and this is the best of the best in my experience.
I had a lot of help preparing for my trip and I would like to take time to thank a few people. First, my Sponsor Terry Miller, for his apparel and disc selections made available to me. I’d also like to thank Dane Miller for working with me on my disc selection, as well. It sounds easier than it is. Learning to throw 150 class disc was quite a challenge for me. It was one thing to throw them here at our sea level. but in Japan the discs throw much different at 3000 feet above sea level.
If you’re ever thinking of taking a trip to a major tournament you should consider this one to be the crown jewel. If that means prepping by going to other majors or NT’s around the country, then do it. It’s more than just a disc golf tournament. It’s a chance to meet disc golfers from around the globe, experience the culture, and immerse yourself in all that’s offered as part of the tournaments all-inclusive package. The food was authentic and outstanding. I had some wild taste experiences. It’s hard to believe that I met Japanese players that have been playing for more than 20 years. Who knew that there was disc golf in Japan 20 years ago!
On with the last week of our league! I would like to thank you all for a pleasurable and easy league to run. I would like to also thank Dane and Nolan for all their help, too.
This was an exciting 8 week league with a couple of lead changes along the way. That always adds to the fun. We’ll start with the Rec. division. Jason “Walleye†started strong this league, but the new guys found a way to land the big one. Brandon started a little slow but picked up the pace at the end showing he can compete with the Adv. guys. Sam also put together some pretty good rounds, never getting above par. Steve came in under the radar gaining points by playing every week. I would like Brandon and Sam to move into the Advanced division because they are capable of shooting under par. I know it’s great to be at the top of the pack, but at this league if you’re under par at the Rec. level we move you up. Doing so will elevate your game. Steve is scoring where he needs to be. He did not shoot lights out, but finished decently week after week and ended up finishing first.
In the Open division for the first couple of weeks were just two players, me and D-money. It was nice to see more open players the last couple of weeks. D-money needed this win for the overall points win, but that did not come to pass. I was the points victor for the division. However, I was beaten for the first time in two seasons by Josh Cleveland…who’s not invited back (kidding!) I have to regain my awesome status now that you’ve seen me bleed…hmmm. I hope to see you all back in our next session that starts this Thursday.
In the hotly contested Advanced division there was more than one lead change from the start. Matt K. “Scraps†led it for a while but thought Matt A. should take the lead from him. In all the fuss Ryan thought that he should have the lead and not share it! Well done Ryan and welcome to the Open division! This is an opportunity for you to step it up. I know you can bring it and if your ever in doubt just ask…I won’t tell you how to beat me but I will clue you in on how to play your best golf.
Last but not least! How about that ACE from Danny on his last drive on his last hole! The hole was number four and it was worth one hundred big ones…Nice Job Danny. That clears the ace board for the next session.
See you all soon.
