Disc Golf 06/21/2008

I went to Old Settler's park today after my morning bike ride. And, as luck would have it, I met a new player. His name was Chris and he was visiting from Tyler (who's wife was attending a party in Round Rock and he took the opportunity to play a new course). He had mistakenly parked at hole 14 when he turned in after seeing a basket. I can understand that since I do that all the time.

He asked if he could join us and we agreed. He also suggested to play skins for a quarter a hole to make it interesting. This is not something I would normally do, but I agreed. Wow, was it a total slaughter. He is by far the best player that I have come across. He birdied something like ten of the holes. He was able to throw his Star Destroyer and his Star Excaliber perfectly stable. And long distance too. He threw it consistently underneath the basket from 400+ feet away.

It looks the the dam construction has removed another hole. Those bastards! It looks like they removed the small hill in the background and replaced it with an identical one made from fresh dirt. Of course, they forgot to replace the basket. (I hope that they don't lose it).
