Simple.

I've watched a lot of my old skater friends huckin disc at the chains for a long time, some are pioneers in it, cool. Recently, I've come to play and now I got a few old friends together and taught them how to play, others school me.

Now we gather on a regular basis.

We talk ****, take a safety break under a tree, make fun of each other and every once in a while, CCCHINNGGG! We make a great shot and all is well in the world.

I think it would be cool to gather in different groups or a big group of us together and do the same thing

No t-shirts or printed discs, no hype, just hit the chains with some old school dudes.

There are a bunch of you out there, Greg, Stuart, Greg, Tony, me, Tim, Dave, that's the short list, Ron, Mike, Kyle and there are a lot more of you. I've put the date out to the Sunday after Thanksgiving. I don't care if we change the date, I just want to get started with this and if there is a better date, speak up.

The best way to start this is to get it done once and go from there.

Chingaderos, we don't need no stinking papers, sign up and show up.

The post in FB has now become a weekly thread of where we will meet. I doubt that we will even gather on the intended date although not entirely true, our core group may... PM

If you really wanna play in AZ come to the Sunday morning round at Buffalo Ridge (http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=917).
6am for the next few weeks, then we move to 6:30.

Does anybody have the facebook info they could paste here? I do not do facebook. Thanks.

What's the 9-holer that they play forward and backwards?

Phoenix has 5 or 6 of my discs from the Memorial at FH's this year. Spinners never got them back.

You are probably thinking of Emerald Park in Mesa.

Most of the discs that end up in the Fountain never see the light of day again. The lake doesn't like to give them back.

You may want to check with these folks as well. They rake the Fountain on a pretty regular basis:

Thanks. I went there and left a message.

That FH's wrecked my week at the Memorial. I was confident with my shots but after a few practice rounds all of the good stuff in my bag was gone. I should have bought a golden retriever. After that I did a lot of sightseeing and food eating.

I wish it only wrecked my week. I broke my hand on the 8th hole of the first round this last year at The Memorial. Had to have surgery to repair it a week later. Fountain Hills wrecked me for 6 months.

Conocido is a 9 hole course with 18 tees that you can play backwards.

Can't wait till November when Fountain Hills opens back up, I have yet to play that course.

How did you do that?

I threw a poor shot and punched the ground. The result was a really jacked up looking hand. I have since learned to control my anger better. I call it my moment of clairity.

Are you coming out next year? Registration opens 12/1 and fills up super-quick. You probably already knew that.

Played it several times. On first glance it's pretty easy, but the crew I throw with we play all the rock beds, which run throughout the course, as OB. Makes it much more difficult.
