Hands down, best disc golf day EVER!

[bettsjc]

Well, headed out to Sugaw Creek, Charlotte, NC today at about 3:30 to warm up for Thursday Night Am League. Started a practice round on hole #1. Played well, only threw 1 bogey in 15 holes...but the best was on hole #11. Pulled out my CFR Katana, aced a hole over 360'. Finished practice, signed up at 5:15, then sat in the car for a half hour while it poured rain. The rain let up and we started the League round on hole #7. Got to the tee on hole #11 and thought, "what if I did it again? Wouldn't that be something?" I throw an amazing hyzer flip shot on a wide open hole and crushes the chains again!

SAME HOLE, SAME DISC, 1 hr 45 min FROM EACH OTHER???

The wackiness doesn't stop there. 3 holes later in our Am League round my buddy Josh aces hole #14, 240'ish TIGHT dogleg left and the basket is elevated and in the center of a tree(its tough to imagine).

I ended up shooting -2, best round ever at Sugaw Creek, only one bogey(a mando miss 4), one birdie, the ace and 15 pars. Crazy day!

haha thats awesome...I don't guess anyone signed the first ace. You should still do it and right time and ****.

 

[discdug]

great job! Congrats on the ace!

 

[bettsjc]

Nobody signed either, but wrote course, hole and date/time. One guy saw them both, and where the tee for that hole is situated there were 4 groups around when I did it, so I don't have any problem with witnesses. But one guy saw them both which totally makes it worth it

I know both hole 11 and 14. Hole 11 is a sick ace! Congrats! I usually throw the anhyzer route on that hole...

Cool. Years ago I had two tournament aces back to back. They happened a week apart, however. I aced the last hole of a tournament in St. Paul (#12 @ Highland Park) and then a week later in Austin, MN, aced the first hole of the tournament (#7 @ Todd Park).

Sugaw is a fun course. That's an awesome hole too. Congrats on the double... that's a sweet story.

I know both hole 11 and 14. Hole 11 is a sick ace! Congrats! I usually throw the anhyzer route on that hole...

I am hoping that lightning hits and burns that tree down one of these days....

Congrats betts....:clap:

 

[bikinjack]

Congrats man...


I got to witness two in one day recently, neither by me, but it was cool seeing two in the same day. I can't imagine throwing two in one day. That's awesome.

Was having one of my best days until I took a demon in the face and thought I needed stitches.

[NothinButChing]

to the face :'(



sounds like quite the day man!

 

[SmoothSailor]

awesome! im still waiting for my first ace!

 

[bettsjc]

appreciate all the congrats!

I woke up this morning thinking I was dreaming. I think what was cool about the whole thing is that my first ace was a blind shot that skipped in the basket and hit the chains pretty soft, almost sounded like it came from a few holes away. I wasn't aware that I aced it until I came around the corner. This time I was able to watch it hit the chains and drop in both times, which made it more exciting.

 

[wolito]

Crazy insane man! I would have loved to been there to see that and feel the excitement. Defiantely a day you won't forget.

 

[bettsjc]

Definately the single disc golf moment I will never forget. It beats out watching Michael Johanson park hole #6 at Sugaw Creek, 360'...with a Comet.

 

[BucketBonanza]

Nice! Congrats. That is going to be tough to top!

You sig is now officially huge b/c of that. Now that you have more than 1 ace, you probably don't need to count metal hits anymore.
