Old Farm Summer League
Mixed league
Tomorrow (9/6) is the last official league play day! Last time to earn more points. We flip at 3pm. Best Shot Doubles!
NO LEAGUE ROUND THIS WEEK!!! The Old Farm Summer league encourages you to register and play in the Dirtymax Tournament to support the family of Matt Boomstra.
Be sure to bring a basket if you can just to make sure we have the three we need.
I can't bring my basket. I left it out in Hudsonville, sorry.
This week for our Wild Card Week we are having a True Alternate Shot round. Each partner takes turns alternating shot. If Partner A sinks his putt, Partner B tees of on the next hole, etc... This round will play as fast as a singles round so we will decide on Sunday if we'll play 2 rounds or just one.
Come on out this Sunday @3pm for league best shot doubles! Leaderboards are now current!
Join us at Old Farm Park on 7/26 @3pm for our alternate long course! Lots of mandos and OBs. Come check it out!
This Sunday @3pm is putters only from the AM pads. It's going to be hot. Let's get the aces rolling!
Tomorrow @3pm is our alternate long course at Old Farm Park! Can anyone bring a portable basket?
Next week is putters only. Bring a friend.
Can anybody bring a portable basket for Sunday's round. We need one more.
I have a skill shot and a Mach lite also. The Mach lite catches bad putts
Chris and I decided to cancel next week's league day (5/31) so people can play the Trilogy Challenge at Fallasburg Park on the same day. We've added a week to leagues and pushed the "end of the year" tournament back one week.
Happy Discing!
Bring your a-game and a noise maker as we embark on maybe... just maybe... one of the most memorable disc golf rounds of your life! Please no nudity or profanity. And when you shoot your 10 foot putt and somebody whispers in your ear "I eat boogers" - don't be offended when you miss.
The leaderboard is up-to-date! Thanks for everyone who came out yesterday. It's nice to see some new faces.
Plans for the 2015 Old Farm Disc Golf League are underway! Sunday, March 8th @3PM I would like interested/league players to meet at the Fleetwood Diner on 44th St. to talk about this year's league.
All I can confirm right now are as follows:
1. More league days
2. More sponsors = more CTP and LP prizes
3. League Discs with graphic
4. A better Alt Long course
Shoot, I was on a work trip to Florida and missed it. Anything exciting I should know about?
Today's league play will be the last day for league points. Next week we will hand out league standing prizes and have a rip-riotous time with our end-of-the-year tournament!
For our tournament we will be playing the alternative course with minor changes to holes 5, 7 and 9 per Lightning John's suggestion.
I will be there today - let's do this!!!
Nice ace Jordan Cassady on hole 13 at JC! That would take a beefy throw on a beefy hole. Jordan takes the pot gentlemen! We are back down to ZERO.
Tomorrow is worst-shot doubles at Old Farm. I again will not be there, and I apologize for this. However GAME ON!
After tomorrow we only have one more league day, then our end of the year tournament on August 31st. Prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and possibly 4th will be rewarded overall at the tournament. Juniors will also be rewarded for 1st and possible 2nd.
Pay-outs at this tournament will include any ace pool money still in the ace pool.
All prizes (discs) will be from Play It Again Sports of Kentwood.
We will be playing this sunday at Jaycee park. Meeting by hole ones pad and twos basket. Thank you!
Congratulations Dan VanOost on taking all our (ace pool) money this week (over $110)! Way to go!
Next week is the double Birdie Bash at Old Farm Park at 3pm. The ace pool is $93 dollars and all the "longer" holes are shortened. Let's do this!
Josue took an impressive $81 from the ace pool yesterday with an ace on our alt long course hole 3 at Old Farm Park. He also took CTP on that hole and one other yesterday, earning him a Vibram Birdie Bash Players Pack and a Westside Hatchet. I now call him the "Magic Missile".
The leaderboard is updated but might seem wonky because in order to enter the Birdie Bash points I had to enter a score. So the group that got 8 total points is recorded as shooting a -46. The points are more important then the scores.
SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW @3pm!!!
Sunday is our first Doubles Birdie Bash! A Vibram Birdie Bash is designed to help your approach game. The rules are as follows:
1. The goal is to get the most points.
2. You only get two throws per hole.
3. Points are awarded as follows:
a. 1 point for hitting metal anywhere on the basket on your first and/or second throw
b. 2 points for getting a birdie
c. 5 points for an Ace
Ours is a double version of the Birdie Bash. Both partners are trying to get points. The best of both throw ...
