Tyler has created the Albert Tamm clinic on discgolfscene, the day before the Lighthouse Open. Regular Friday doubles will tee at 4pm for those who are interested- hopefully we will get at least one new Estonian player!

Tonight the CTPs went to: Luke on 3LW, Kyle on 7LW, Bob on 9LW, and Zeke on 10 LW. Also played 1, 2, 10, 11, 12 Long Yellow to complete the 17 hole layout. KyleL & SeanH won the playoff, which went 3 holes. Basket skim double-dot on 9LW for me set the CTP in the first group through on that hole tonight, but almost everybody in the other group beat it.

Windy with cloud cover resulted in the last reasonable temperatures we're expecting to see here for many weeks. People were saying beforehand that an Ace was in the air; Zeke made it so and cashed on #20 from the short pad*. CTPs went to me on 5, CadenK on 9 & 26, and Zeke on 20 (duh).

CTPs on this second SAFE_D Meeting of the new year went to: #2- ChuckW, #7-&11BobMcC, #12-CalebA. Wind & cold noted by some on this round that went right up to dark.

Full moon rising was a nice backdrop this evening in was statistically the most evenly-matched SAFE-D meeting ever. In 522 weeks of random draw dubblz at FG, never before have all teams ended regulation play with the same score; unprecedented parity. Our "one-throw playoff" resulted in LukeS and CharlieK leaving with fatter pockets. Luke got 2 CTPs, compared to one each for EdG and ZekeW.

Surprisingly nice weather, but still plenty of mosquitos for this time of year. Winning team shot 17 down on 19 holes, thanks in part to Bob McC's "field ace" eagle on 25. Memorable because there just aren't that many (legit / long pad) eagles on that hole to date. Bob grabbed CTPs on 1 & 24, Nick got #4 & I cashed #12.

If you like "free air conditioning" / sunshine / no bugs, then you missed an sweet SAFE-D round today! Despite the best weather in recent memory, only three throwers showed. This is the minimum required for the ace fund to be in play. We decided on a Skins game with an after-the-fact, random starting point; that is why the lowest raw score did not win the most money. CTPs on 2 & 5 went to me, 8 to Bob, and 9 to Doug. Doug was also the dot leader, which pays nothing. Near-aces also pay nothing, so the ace fund grows...

CalebA banked the most yesterday (despite his team finishing just outside the pay cut) thanks to CTPs on 4, 13 and 25. ChrisB & JeffR lit up the scoreboard for the win with 15 under par. Hoping for more & better local disc golf in 2022!

"An Evening of Jody" could be the title of the show we saw at yesterday's SAFE-D Meeting. Mr Cone won 3 of the 4 CTPs on his way to first place with partner and StrongArm League member 117 Bubba Tyson. Jake Loferski also joined StrongArm League as #118. Tags 44 & 45 issued and now in play!

It was fun!

No aces in four months, then two aces within a minute of each other! Will DeBruin played his first SAFE-D Meeting last night and did not have funds to join StrongArm League before the round. DMR is a current StrongArm member. Will was in the threesome in front and threw an ace on hole 20. Thunder stealer Daniel in the second group right behind them proceeded to throw an ace on hole 19 right after! Since the secondary ace fund only comes into play the week after primary ace fund is hit, these pla ... more

Yesterday's SAFE-D meeting started at 5:15 and was played on a shortened course layout in an effort to beat dusk. CTP on 13 was Daniel McKay-Roberts' roller, CTP on 19 went to Luke Stamps, and Jody Cone used two shots to secure full payment of CTP on hole 26.
The 3-way sudden death playoff almost ended on hole 3 but DMR's putt splashed out; on hole 4 my drive & Jody's putt sealed the deal.

Tomorrow holes 11 and 22 will be moved to short pins, and holes 5 and 19 moved to long pins. Enjoy!

With a late start today we finished after dark and the rain had started, so by unanimous decision we did not have the customary playoff. I got 2 CTPs (4 and 9) and Bob McC got the other (22).
Ace fund almost got hit by Jody on hole 5, but it survives for eligibility next time....(see previous notes on how Primary & Secondary etc Ace Funds are paid)

Good wind practice at the SAFE-D meeting yesterday. Gusty even after dark for the bonus glow half-round. I will never forget the putt KielW had on the lighthouse that sailed by, then was caught by the wind and came back in the opposite side of the basket from where he threw!
KielW and CliffW bagged the action with a strong score of 65; 3 shots better than the next best total. Three way tie for second was played off in the usual style and went to hole 4, where JamesW sunk a 35ft putt, then Lu ... more

Anyone familiar with weather patterns in NE Florida this time of year might have predicted what it looked like this evening. Hot and humid at signup, very windy from holes 1-6 (which was nice because it blew away many of the DPGs), and then it rained like crazy when our group played holes 7 and 8. Skies cleared up after that, and was almost even nice, if not for those pesky things coming back after the wind laid down. LukeS claimed randomly-drawn CTPs on holes 10 and 16, while JamesW grabbed th ... more

Hot today, like one coulda figured for mid-June in FL. JamesW got the CTP on 23, LukeSW had a $9 throw on 18, and hole 1 CTP went to me. JamesW & BobMcC bagged lowest score for $20 each, nice throwing fellas.

Randomly drawn CTPs tonight went to LukeS on 21, and BobMcC on 22 (Dan got the bonus CTP pie on hole 5). The CTP on 15 also went to BobMcC but has a more interesting story- I threw first off the tee, split the V, and my disc stopped 8' from the pin. After huge high fives around, my partner Bob says "I might not even throw", then he proceeds to park his 2' away and grab the cash on that one; even though we putted mine to score the fabled v1. Good times. Welcome StrongArm Leag ... more

New guy today- Aaron- swwops down from Jax and hits the ace on hole 7, which just so happened to be the bonus CTP pizza hole. Aaron also scored a cash CTP on hole 19, but did not pull the trigger on the StrongArm membership, so the Friday Ace Fund paid out only 50 for him tonight. Still, 58 bucks and a pie isn't too bad a payout for having fun. Other CTPs went to JamesW on 16 and me on 13. Next week the Fund is at 175 (for current members). Chris Gonzalez joined tonight to become the first Member with a three-digit number; will Aaron be StrongArm League Member #101?

CTP winners at yesterday's SAFE-D Meeting were me (hole #4), LukeS (hole #12), and EricB (hole #15). Good times!

Today we played without hole 13, and a shorter version of hole 26 due to traffic for this weekend's rodeo. CTPs went to JamesW (holes 22 and 24) and DanB (hole 20). BryanT and me won by a stroke after splitting monster putts on 17 and 26, fun round and warming up nicely.
