    poison ivy............

    Do not take a Hot shower to try and wash off poison ivy... This will only result in the pores opening up and absorbing more of the oil. Hot showers work great once your confident the oil has been washed off.

    poison ivy............

    I am going on week two of poison ivy... and lucky this is the first time where I have not had to get steroids to cure it. I would recommend washing your disc and bag after playing. My legs and arms have pretty much healed, but my fingers started to break out bad again. The bag and disc are the...

    I watched the video a while ago but ill need to check it out again. I haven't watched a lot of the discraft videos because they feel more like a sales ad then a training video to me.

    Skippy, Thanks for the advice I did a bit more searching and found a hotel right by Dretzka. I have to admit the pricing is a lot cheaper then I expected around Milwaukee.

    Evanston, IL to Madison, WI

    I just realized the tournie is the Mad City Open and is not at Brown Deer. That's what I get for planning a trip a 2am ;) The group that is going has really only played 2 or 3 around the Joliet, IL area and we have never played out of state. Most of us are just starting to get back in to DG...
