Wednesday Night Glow Finale:

I touched on this very briefly last night so here it is again but in more detail. Next Wednesday (the 24th) will be/should be the last Dubs held at the Goon. There is currently $63 in the Ace Fund. I'll put $43 towards the payout for this last Dubs. However, it'll go towards the pot for those who placed in the Top 10. Those in the Top 10 are:

1 - Adam Renfro - 176
2 - Brad Larson - 165
3 - Joe Schacht - 163
4 - John Thein - 148
5 - Nick Collaer - 146
6 - Jeremy Boyd - 145
7 - Louie Orozco - 143
8 - Dale Williams - 129
9 - Brian Cassidy - 122
10 - Danny Trubiano - 118

I will contact each of you in the Top 10 by Sunday night to verify you'll be at the finale (for those of you who would like to be proactive and respond before then that would be much appreciated). If you can not make it, the next person in line will receive the invite (in this case, Derek Meier - 115, etc).

For those who did not make the Top 10 a league round is still scheduled for that day. You guys will be playing for the pot that is brought in the day of. It'll more than likely be a winner take all league depending on attendance. If anyone has any questions don't hesitate to ask.

Hopefully all will go well and we can get out to Kincaid sooner than later.

Just to reiterate last nights "special message" and to those who weren't there:

Due to many of us (not you, us) arriving to leagues AFTER the posted time, I've incorperated a new rule. It goes a little something like this:

If you plan on participating in the ADGA's weekly leagues you're gonna need to be there on time from here on out. If you feel you might be late you have 3 options: 1) Call someone you know will be there and have them buy you in (this does not mean call me or the person running league that week. We have enough to do). That will reserve a card for you. 2) Pay your entry fee in advance (3 league minimum). This does mean more work for me but I'm willing on doing this for you. Should you choose this route you'll only need to notify me if you DO NOT plan on being at the next league. Otherwise I'll assume you'll be there and a card will be drawn for you. 3) I hate to say it but, don't show up. Especially if you're going to be more than 10 minutes late. Having 15-20 people wait on 1 person isn't cool.

Should you decide to just chance it, that's cool too. However, if you arrive after the scheduled time AND cards have not been drawn you can still buy-in at the non-member rate. If you chance it AND cards have been drawn you will not participate in that league. No, not even as a Cali. Imagine if someone like James Beckner showed up late every week and got to play Cali. Nobody would like that (well, except for him).

Keep in mind, this is 100% completely preventable by simply showing up on time.

Great shooting to those who came out to Dubs last night. Five of 8 teams threw double digit neg scores. The previous best was 4 teams. AAAND there were 2 Aces. The 1st was thrown by JT$ on #6. Then on the very next hole Josh Stewart did it. Those two were on the same card but had different partners. Lights out!!!

I played Friday night opening day and brought my led flashlight w a long enough lanyard to put through the f logo cut out on the top part of the basket and that worked great w the led light pointed down. Played 9pm - 11pm just had to walk to the basket n hang the light every hole. Worked amazing and had a great round. Something battery operated like that would be my suggestion to solve the glow stick cost issue. 3 packs of those LEDs are 20$ at Costco I believe

From playing 2+ years of glow winter league in cincy....here's my $.02... For tape - put it on warm discs. Use the super low temp electrical tape. Place lights on top of disc. Carry some extra lights, some spare tape, and some small scissors in your bag. Pare down your discs. Use less than six. Shouldn't be that hard at westerchester. Red lights save your night vision and don't blind you when putting. Use the battery operated glow sticks and hang one in the center of the chains flush with the post. Last group to play a basket collects the glow sticks. Get extra sticks in case batts. die or they get swiped. See you out there!!

Brian, Fro, and I played WCL tonight with our lit discs. We didn't have glowsticks for the baskets but seeing the baskets was much less of an issue than seeing the discs. The mixed lighting conditions makes it hard to track the small amount of light emitted by our discs, and with the snow coming things could get really difficult. The clear packing tape we used also didn't seem to like the cold temps/moisture, so that may be an issue. Do they make glow in the dark ribbon?
