- Week 11 Recap - Okay well the rain held off, and I
appreciate it for doing so. Well, finally someone hit an
ace last night. Chris Robbins, congratulations sir, you are
the proud winner of $50. Ace was on hole #21. I could hear
him shouting from hole #14 so I knew something big
happened. Good job Chris.
Well par being 62, I'd say 9
under is a hot score. John Murphy rolled in with a 53, 7
strokes better than last week. Nick Knapp 55, a 6 stroke
improvement, Taz a 56, Trenton Franz a 57, Marc Brooks a 58
and Jay Klein a 59, rounding out the under 60 players. Some
other players throwing better were Bill Stosch with a 7
stroke improvement and Steve Bannon with a 6 stroke
improvement. Schnide time: Bob Seaman drops 7 from the
previous week, followed by Dave Martinez and Art Discher
throwing 5 strokes worse. Others were unable to improve
from the previous week, those 3 were just the highlights.
End of Summer League Party
will be September 24th at Marc Brooks' house in Langhorne
PA.
Next 50/50 raffle will be next week.
The results link should now show your divisions. PLT -
Platinum, GLD - Gold, SIL - Silver, BRN - Bronze, UNR -

- Week 10 Recap - Alrighty then, 2 more newbies to the league, bringing us
up to 73 participants, love it! Longer layout definitely
took it's toll on a few people. Two players improved their
scores from week 9, Justin Ryan by 5 strokes and Scott
Murray by 1 stroke. Par was 62, Matt Lowe and Joe Mela came
in at 6 under with 56's. Jay Klein close behind with a 57
and Dave Martinez closing the under 60 crowd with a 59. Taz,
John Murphy, Marc Brooks, Trenton Franz all shot 60, Tom
Kady, Alan Sweeton and Nick Knapp all shot 61, ending the
under par players. Schnide, wow, as I said, the longer
layout was brutal to a lot of folks, which, I can
understand, personally. That being said, we know the schnide
shows little mercy, Robert Hewski, 17 strokes off with a 74,
Scott Koldhoff 14 off with a 79, Skip Millard 16 off with an
80, Bill Stosch 15 off with a 76, Rex Hay off by 13 with a
63, and Walt Breuninger off 10 with a 75. The good thing is
I believe everyone will play better next week.
RIGHT???!?!?!?!?
League party date has changed, it will now be
Sunday September 24th at

- Pittsburgh Flying Disc Open
Road Trip - The majority of
us arrived at the Neshaminy parking lot around 5:15pm on
Friday night only to find that our rental passenger van was
in Delaware on a trip of its own. After much cursing,
waiting and a sniper attack on the BCDGA president (actually
he was hit in the face by a stray lid which caused Andrew
minor injury over the eye and his glasses flew off into
Nick's hands) in the Neshaminy mall parking lot the van
arrived around 6:45pm with Rex at the wheel. The gear
and 3 went in the truck and the rest of us piled into the
van and took off down the turnpike towards Pittsburgh.
Little did we know Mario Andrewetti Sweeton was at the wheel
in his giant ford truck. Captain Rex stayed in Mr.
Andrewetti's draft for the entire 350 mile trip. Which
put us into Pittsburgh in an astounding 4.5 hours with a
stop for gas and dinner. The van stayed between 85 and
90mph during the entire trip. Once we arrived we
checked in at the Comfort Inn in Cranberry, PA around
Midnight. After a good nights sleep we dropped the AMs
at Knob Hill and the pros went to Morraine to play thier
rounds. After the rounds on Saturday were complete we
gathered the 12 of us for a feast at the Lonestar next to
our hotel. Sunday we dropped the pros at Knob Hill and
sent the AMs to Morraine for the first round in the morning.
Once the morning round was complete the AMs shuttled the 30
minute drive back to Knob Hill to see who qualified to play
the final round. Nearly everyone qualified and
completed the round. After walking up the Knob Hill "Mountian"
for the last time we were greeted by a food buffet for all
the players. A CTP contest was completed where 12
throwers competed to win a bicycle. Joe Mela had 2
throws at the basket but could not compete against the eagle
eye and pinpoint accuracy of Andrew Sweeton who easily
placed his disc 3 feet from the basket with his one and only
attempt. After awards we gathered the caravan together
and headed home. The trip back was uneventful and less
high speed than the trip up. We arrived at Neshaminy
around 12:30am or so and unpacked and went home to get some
sleep and head to work the next day.

- League Night week 9 recap
Alright now that was better, 38 players including 3 new
faces. Total of 71 participants so far this year, the
season is half over. This week found the early players dry
and the late players absolutely soaked to the bone drenched,
I mean I am talking WET!!!!!!!! Okay par was 57, I wonder if
you can adjust par for the rain? Anyway, 2 players smoked
with 7 under par, Rex Hay & Matt Lowe, I believe these were
dry rounds, but nice shooting. Jay Klein and Taz came in
with 51s, Joe Mela shot 52 and Dave Martinez and Robby
Hendrick shot 54. In certain standards Jay Klein was the
hottest with a 9 stroke improvement over last week. Schnide,
well it is a boring week, only Steve Bannon had a 2 stroke
worse week this week from last week, everyone else improved
or did not play last week.
Sorry folks, you'll have to check the website for the
scores, saving time and not including them here.
League party date has changed, it will now be
Sunday September 24th at Marc
Brook's house.
Heard on the course:
"We can't get any wetter."
"Murph' fell in the river on nine."
"No he didn't, no he didn't, it's not true, I don't want you
to write about it."
"Yeah I saw one group hiding in the bathroom during the
rain."
"My disc floated down the course 20 feet, does that count?"

- League night week 8 recap.
It was a dark and rainy night, and 20 loyal soles faced the
rain and
shot.... well they came out and played disc golf anyway. I
must admit the
rain had stopped by the end of my round, but my feet were
especially soaked. I hope my disc golf shoes dry out
before Saturday. Do all the Amateur rated players know the
Great Eastern Amateur Cup is this Saturday at Tyler State
Park? Well you do now. Check out our website for entry
fees, and I'll see you there.
Okay now that the commercial is over, back to the league
recap. Hot was 4 under par, a score of 53, thrown by Tom
Kady, nice going Tom. Only one other player shot better this
week than last week and that was Jerry Jacobson with a 2
stroke improvement, throwing 64. Well as always, the Schnide
is an honest yet brutal abuser who takes no prisoners, this
week, in the wet & rain is no exception. First on the
schnide, is well, myself, slipping, literally at times, 8
strokes to bring in a horrid 81. (Horrid is my opinion.) Now
we also have a special guest on the schnide this week,
someone unfamiliar to this part of the recap, Joe Mela, who
was 10 strokes off his game this week to bring in a 57. Joe
had doubts anyone would do better in that weather. What Joe
did not realize was, the later in the day you started, the
better off you were as the rain and wind let up a little
bit. Now last on the schnide, is a global inclusion to
everyone who did not play yesterday. It's disc golf, what
could be better to do on a Wednesday afternoon. :-)
Okay time for the next commercial. End of the season Summer
League party is going to be held September 10th, 1pm, at the
Brooks house in Langhorne PA. Spouses and children are
welcome to come. In addition to handing out prizes, and
having a bbq we hope the weather will permit, some double
disc court, guts, ultimate or other fun with flying devices.
