A narrow escape.

All players had their sights set on the ace prize, as usual for a round @ River Ranch Disc Golf Course. Tall weeds and high spirits gave way to somber thoughts of lost discs, as Brad threw an early shot into the ditch on #4. Chris goes OB deep on #6, and gets an easy bird with Mark on #7. Was Chris getting fatigued, or was someone playing a joke him? A birdie on 8 and a near ace chain-out on 10 nearly rubbed it in their face!! Ryan and Mark both went OB on #13, leaving the group dumbfound ... more

Close calls...

With only nine players waiting for the decision, Ronnie showed up at the last minute to give us the even number we wanted. Epple Doubles was on!! Some slow scoring in the beginning soon gave way to birdie fest from Chris and Eric as they lengthened their lead slowly throughout the round. Mark Frazier sent his Beast on #6 to the center of the chains, only to be denied of his first ace with a bounce out!! Still a sweet shot, you'll get yours soon. After 8 birds in a row no one was going ... more

Water fouls in Greeley?

Even with no rain in a few days prior to Saturdays league, the group was greeted with Greeley's only water hazard at Pioneer Park. The lagoon was a little more than swampy, but did not inundate the baskets, so game on!!
After a group decision to throw singles, three groups teed off with hopes of the big ace prize. Naturally, Pioneer doesn't disappoint with it's many ace runs, even in the long positions! Chris took aim early, hitting the basket with his drive on #2. Matt ski ... more

Out with a bang.

When the players drew cards for River Ranch Doubles this morning we immediately had a front running team in Eric and Ryan. They did not disappoint, turning in a new club record minus 15 score!! Deione and Eli finished in a tie for 2nd place today, but it was Deione that stole the show with his skip ace on #11. $107.50, not a bad days work at the course, D. Our alternate holes may be solid enough to stay in use even after the course is repaired, we'll see... Epple alternates return next week, we've been waiting so this will be surefire good time.

Cool course. Cool day.

High clouds kept things cool for our rounds today @ UNC. The course provided some good challenges and some ace runs that were nearly taken advantage of. Chris glanced one off the basket on hole #3 and Eric and Jamie almost canned a couple as well. Jamie on hole #14 and Eric on hole #8. We will definitely set this configuration up again in the future, everyone seemed to enjoy the layout even though #8 is missing. 13 straight for CBass and Co!!

New League Record Set!!

Great weather welcomed us again today, I guess it's paybacks for all the rough weekends. Quite a few close calls were thrown out towards claiming the ace pot today, but no one wound up successful yet again. Two aternate holes were used to replace 1 and 2 while construction continues. While Eric Lind looked strong early, he simply stalled out after an unsightly bogey on hole 12, maybe next time ELbo. Surprise, surprise, CBass birdies 9 out of the last ten on the way to a personal best an ... more

Perfect weather?

For once in the last several weeks, the weather could not have been better, as we shot the Ft. Morgan Optimist this time around. Even though we traveled an hour from home, our turnout was better than normal for this last weekend of May. Fourteen players came to test their skills as spirits soared as high as the clouds above, making this trip a great time for everyone. No ace runs were reported today as the pot grows higher still, tipping $200 once again. Eric put up a valiant effort as he fo ... more

WET. AGAIN.

Yet again the weather was less than desirable for play @ Epple park this morning. Eric Lind was determined not to let that slow him down on his way to a minus 9, and moving back up to #3 tag, nice job! Brad falters again while trying not to throw out his back due to the poor footing on the course. There's always next time. :) Jamie shoots a solid seven down to come in third place. Eli forgot his glasses and wasn't able to tell where the O.B. started and stopped, netting him a 58. ... more

Hot scores on a cool day.

Mist rained down on the course as the players drew cards for teams @ the first doubles event of 2009. Of all the courses 3Rivers plays, Epple Park has the most ace runs when played as (3) 6-hole rounds. That said, no one seems to come as close there as they do at other area courses, hmmm... Brad and Ronnie turned in an impressive bogey free round, but the lack of birdies was their eventual downfall, netting them a minus 5 score. Eli nearly canned an ace on hole 5 as his team came in third pl ... more

Soggy is the word.

As the players stepped on to the first tee this morning, they may have been questioning their leaders judgment to play in such inclement weather. None the less, they planned to fend off CBass as well as the elements en route to a league victory.
Six players started the round, but the numbers dwindled to four as Ronnie and Ryan found the their skills inundated by the storm. Low and behold it was Sam who held the early lead and threatened to move up in the tag rankings as the players headed t ... more

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a winner!!

Just as soon as we emptied the car at the Optimist on Saturday, the rain began to fall. Winds were swirling already as we geared up for some great disc golf action. The Optimist, being a fan favorite, was sure to not disappoint. The group avoided the the vast parking lot, stayed safe and started with pars on #1. As we moved onward, the wind and rain picked up speed. As much to our surprise, as Doug himself, we found him with the early six hole lead. Hole 7 came along and claimed the ... more

CBass strikes again!!

The conditions were less than ideal today as the players made their case for #1 at the UNC campus course. The snow was just thick enough to keep everyone guessing their skips and skids as the sun bounced mercilessly off the thin layer. Out of nowhere, a main burst and sent a mist covering the group, as if it were not cold enough.
Still no aces to show for the week!! When will the club see another feat of greatness during a league round?
Foose was pushing for the lead whe ... more

Traveling League - Johnny Roberts

One inch of fresh snow welcomed us at Johnny Roberts on Saturday morning, but did not last long under the blazing Colorado sunshine. Or was it the group's sweet shots that torched the snow cover? Even though the club traveled a few counties away to shoot @ Johnny Roberts, we still had a good showing of players who came to test their abilities at this awesome course. We found ourselves fishing several times and witnessing the usual ace runs from Mr. Foose and company.
Next we ... more

Crisp Round.

With a swift breeze blowing, the players gave it their all to see who's tops this week at Pioneer Park in Evans, CO. Eric Lind set up a fun new course for us to play that kept the players guessing. Mark Frazier turned in a -2 to edge out Ryan Foose for the #2 tag as Chris Thomas pulled away from the field with a solid -7. With six sessions in the books, our front runners are now well defined.
Doug's disc reconnaisance mission proved successful, reuniting him with an old friend-Arc ... more

Great Morning!!

The weather could not have been better for the last day of January, lots of sunshine and little wind to be found. With photographer clicking away more shots than the players, only one shined like the sun on this day.
Eric Lind digs deep and fights off Ryan for the #2 tag as CBass turns in a -6 and surrenders Foose's streak of three consecutive league sessions.
Again, no one claims the ace prize as it inches closer to the $200 mark. Have no fear, next week brings us many ace opportun ... more

Traveling League - Edora Edition

There was quite a chill in the air to start our rounds today @ Edora park in Ft. Collins. The competition was just as lively as always none the less. With no wind to combat against, it was all up to the players to pull the best shot out of the bag.
Several ace runs made their appearance as the sun peeked through the clouds. To no surprise, Ryan Foose wins again and is now on a hot streak. Will anyone be able to stop him?
UNC doubles next week, it should be a wild one!!

Ace pool lives on...

Ryan Foose nearly cleared out the ace pot on Saturday with a hyzer chain out on hole #11. He will surely come back even stronger in the future having been denied the 150 dollar prize... Stay tuned.
