We will be playing a round of 9 at Bowden Golf Course this Wednesday. Cost is $20. You get a cart. You can bring your own beer or what ever you like. Come check out the new property for our new disc golf course and play 9 on the existing Ball Golf Course.
Rogers & Sowell tood advantage of Welch's absince and are tied for 1st with 89 points, followed by Clark at 87, and John Harrison & Paul Welch tied for fourth at 85. Still no news on cost of playing Bowden next week. I'm tring my best to get an answer.
I've considered all your input on extending the league. We are going to extend the league through Sept 8th. Tatnall's league ends Sept 7th so we can schedule an awards ceremony for both leagues. PARTY!!! I wish we could play further into September but the Sun begins to set around 7:40 PM Sept 15th. I will begin planning the awards ceremony. Remember the top 10 will receive prizes! I'll have further info coming.
Bryan Gort joined the league two weeks ago recording a 53 raw score for his 1st round. He took a week off and returned yesterday to record a 42 or -12 for his second round, and crushing the course record by 2 strokes. WOW!!! Disappointingly he wasn't elegible for the win but be on the lookout moving foward this guy is going to be a force! John Harrison had a break out round posting a 47. It was a tight race with John & Reid Harrison at -8 after 11 holes but as the storm blew in the younger Harrison found himself out of bounds repeatedly.
Two astonishing events happend during week 10 play at Claystone. Paul Welch finished 2nd to last allowing Clark and Sowell to move into a 3 way tie with Welch for the lead 4 points ahead of Rogers. Reid Harrison banged chain on #16 for his 3rd ace on the course. R Harrison now has an ace on holes 6,11, &16. Jonny Jeter is 2 points behind Johnny Harrison or as the club likes to call him, "the real Johnny 5", who is 5th.
5 players scored a raw score of 56 during week 8 but it was magic for only Nate Chapman. Combined with a -8 handicap Chapman scored a 48 and just beat out Cam Long and Jesse Sowell's 49. Welch turned a 3 point lead into a 10 point lead in the overall standings and firmly stands in first place, followed by Sowell and Rogers with 60 points and John Harrison and Clark with 59. Cam Long maybe the player to watch, he's dropped 10 strokes from his 1st week score and has moved up to 12th p ... more
Clark, Rogers & Jeter threw there best during League play and were rewarded with moves into the top 5. Welch still stands strong with a 3 point lead over Clark.
League play ends August 25th for the Claystone League but we have a special opportunity Sept.1st to play disc golf at Bowden Golf course. I'm meeting with the Dir. of Macon Parks & Rec Monday morning at the course and I'll have more info. It's probably going to cost $10 to $20 to play but this will include carts and you will be able to openly enjoy the cold beverage of your choice while we play. These are exciting times for disc golfers in Macon!
Were not really going to change the name but this guy is throwing down some serious domination on the league. He's won twice despite ranging from a -2 handicap to a +1. He has a 9 point lead on 2nd place and always in the running Jesse Sowell. Somebody hide his discs, PLEASE!
Wowsers!!! Don't miss Claystone League play August 4th. Dargon is really hooking us up. $25 Gift Certificate for the winner of that nights round. $100 bounty for an Ace on Hole #9. And Half off on all drinks for disc golfers! Whoohooo!!!
As the temperture heats up so does the competition. We had a 5 way tie for 1st July 7th among, Richardson, Sowell, J Harrison, Peterson, & Lee. Ben Richardson edges Jesse Sowell out of 1st by 1 point with last weeks overall leader Paul Welch dropping to 3rd place. No Aces were had this round and the pot of $42 carries over to next week.

If at first you don't succeed show up and shoot -5 again. After tying Reid Harrison for 2nd last week with a -5. Welch wins week 3 with the same score. The Ace fund rolls over to Week 4 with $16.
Another exciting round for the Claystone Disc Golf League, Brian Lang posts a -8 to take home the prize, Reid Harrison & Paul Welch post -5, with Harrison scoring his 2nd Ace ever on #6. He now has Aces on #6 and #11 at Claystone. What's next #17? Still, Cory Shearin remains the man to beat.

Clark wins the final week and makes it a tie for #1 Overall
While most players were strugling with their game as if it were week 1. Clark was knocking down Birdies. He was rewarded with another weekly win and the points moved him into a Tie for 1st with Sowell. However, after counting who had the best raw score between the players Clark graciously accepted 2nd place.
