I'm going to order tags first and see if there is interest second. This will be a tag challenge for all Detroit metro area players, but only amateurs can win season prizes.
I'm creating a thread here now so I can refernce it in the rules.
can outta towners get tags, like us in the midland area, and if so how often do we have to challenge D-Town people down there?
bruce_brakel
Nov 06 2003, 05:21 PM
I'm not marketing it to out of towners, but it is hard to define who are Metropark Players. At various times in the past, Lansing, Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo have done their own tags and the metro Detroit area has not had anything going on. This year we will have something going on.
Rules and stuff will be posted sometime later. Its not quite 2004 yet.

I'm in this with Bruce, to the point of sharing in the financial losses if there are any. Any financial gains (Ha!) for me will be donated to the PDGA National Disc Golf Center (NDGCG) project. I just think this will be fun in the Detroit/Ann Arbor area - especially to heighten the competitive challenges for amateur players.

Do those who signed-up last year (I mean this year) for the tag program that never quite gained momentum get priority for numbers or drawing for numbers? :D
bruce_brakel
Nov 07 2003, 10:28 AM
Paul, if I have the tags by Thanksgiving, the Thanksglowing players will have first priority, not that it matters. In the Discontinuum tag challenge I bought #17 or #22, some large number. I've had 2, 4 and 5 ever since, except once Jon stuck me with a high number for half a day. If I get the tags by the Pie in the Sky, those players will get first crack.
I e-mailed the tag guy last night.
Terry, I'm going to do this at no profit overall. Profits from tag sales will go to tag CTPs at tournaments where the TDs will accomodate us, and a small cash payout at the end to the top ten tags.
Rules are drafted.
Terry, up front money was never really the issue in 2003. I don't need a financial partner but if you want to help promote the concept in *your* metropark, I'll sell you multiple tags [the even numbers?] and buy back any you ultimtely cannot move.

This is second hand information but if rumors were disallowed, this would be a mighty sparse board.
Anyway, it has come to my attention that a certain cbdiscpimp (http://www.pdga.com/msgboard/showprofile.php?Cat=&User=3532&Number=125233&Board =TournamentInfo&what=showflat&page=0&view=collapse d&sb=5&o=&fpart=1&vc=1) did not accept a challenge from another tag holder on his card at a recent tournament.
I'm not sure if the fact that the person making the challenge had a lower tag number already had anything to do with the refusal but it makes it a little more interesting.
What do you say, Steve?
BTW, are you plying in Lansing this weekend? I'd like to challenge you. Oh wait...
bruce_brakel
Jan 02 2004, 10:57 PM
I heard something about this but not enough to call anyone a wussy. All I know is that there was confusion about how to start a challenge. Here's a script:
[on the first tee before the tee off signal:] "You got a tag? What number? I'm challenging you!"
You can also challenge off-card, if the off-card player wants to accept, but keep it simple. And don't try and pull the old, "Oh, by the way, we're challenging," trick after you have played eight holes and have a five stroke lead.
I'll bring the tags to Lansing if any Detroit area players want to get theirs. I'm showing up with a really bad number to stir things up!

Jan 08 2004, 05:02 PM
Just to clear things up. Jamie didnt say that he was going yto challenge me untill mid round anyway. Second i did not refuse i just said that i thought it was for metroparks only. Third he then withdrew his challenge when he found out that i had a higher tag then he did. We also decided that we would ask bruce after the round what the rules were. Then i proceded to stomp his candy ***** into the ground that round so. To clear things up bring on the challenges as long as they are Legit. Know that i know the rules. This was also one of jamies infamous trying to pull a fast one an weasle you out of something situations. Which had it worked he would be checking in with tag 9 and i would be checking in with tag 4.
Next tourny i will be at is either Freezbee Fling at Brewer or Figherfighters or Cracked Plastic in KZOO. So bring on the challenges. Paul i would be glad to take the number 1 tag off your hands. Lmao just messin with you. I think ill make it out there to league on saturday.

With your permission I'll sell them at the Firefighters tournament next weekend. Paul Jeffries currently has #1. Slater has #5. Not sure about most of the rest but I'm looking to stick someone with #100! 1-14 and 100 are in circulation right now.
Tags are $10. All profits from the sale of tags are going back to the tag holders throughout the season and at the Tag Finals. The rules.doc is at my work so I'll post it tomorrow.

I stuck Mills with Lead Tag #100 today and am now the proud owner of Gold Tag #8. I'm thinking that Tag #100 will be the schule monkey tag until it descends to a proper bag.
Jeffries successfully defended Gold Tag #1 and no one thought to challenge Mosier for Gold Tag #2.
cbdiscpimp
Jan 19 2004, 06:41 PM
That tag might be staying in my bag for a while bruce. Seems i threw out 2 vertibre in my neck yesterday and will be confinded to bed rest for the nex two days and only putting in the basement untill about when i leave for the Memorial in Feb. Hopefully i will feel well enough to hit Cracked plastic but who knows. For right now im going to put in the basement. Nice round though Bruce. And dont worry i will stick this tag in the proper hands sooner or later. I think jamie mosier will be the victim of a 98 tag drop once i regain playing ability. Till then i am the fortunate owner of tag 100
Hey Bruce i gots a Q...
Why is your Avatar from a tourny you didnt play?
Mills, If what doesnt kill u makes your game stronger then do your 2 threw out vertibre make your game stronger?
cbdiscpimp
Jan 26 2004, 10:02 PM
They will when i come back. Cuz my neck and back will be stronger and more in line. So ill still be able to whoop your ACE :D Plus ill qualify for Nationals before you too
Wanna bet on that? or are you just a *******?

Tag #1 checking in.
I hate to let this little secret out of the bag, but at the Lansing Ice Bowl, the guy who defended Tag #1 in the morning won the tournament in the afternoon. At the Cracked Plastic, the guy who won Tag #1 in the morning won the tournament in the afternoon.
Seems like defending Tag #1 causes some players to take it up a notch. Of course to win Tag #1 you have to have a tag...
Mills U know I am always down for skins. Especially against someone whos pansy ***** cant evan finish a tournement

Jamie you need to shut your little mouth. You have no idea why i didnt play the second round. I was about 10 minutes away from frost bite on my toes and beating you guys or finishing that tourny wasnt important to me. Not worth being cold and getting frost bite over. Just wait till the snow melts you little B!*CH. Then well see who the pansy a** is. As soon as the snow melts well play some skins. :D
TAG 100 Checking in. And im **** proud of it
bruce_brakel
Feb 02 2004, 01:16 PM
Mills, are you from the south where it does not get cold? Seriously, if you understand the physiology involved and dress for single digit temperatures, there is no reason to risk frost bite in any weather that Michigan gets.
Winning in the Winter -- A Brief Tutorial
Rule #1: Keep your head hot to keep your toes warm. If your head [not your ears or nose but your head] gets cold you die, so if your head starts to cool your body shuts down blood flow to extremities like toes and fingers. Kelsey and I may look silly in those fluffy suade hats with ear flaps, but our toes were toasty all day long. My head was so hot I had to keep taking my glasses off to let the fog dry up.
Rule #2: Keep your feet dry. Rocky sox, sealskins, gortex boots. You're going to have to pay to play here.
Rule #3: For advanced players, shoot a 960 rated round followed by a 975 rated round. That worked for me. :D
This summer return the favor and tell us something about playing in the heat, if we get any.
screw this snow crap, wait till summer
pjefferies
Feb 02 2004, 08:45 PM
Congratulations Bruce! I'm just sorry that I wasn't in your group to see it.
Tag #2 checking in, Woo Hoo!?
Re Rule #2, I've found that the key for me is thick wool socks. Unfortunately, Seal Skins keep the moisture in as well as out so in the winter, they just don't seem to work for me. With the wool, the socks and insides of the shoes get wet but the water is kept away from my feet. I guess warm and wet is better than cold and wet. ;)
cbdiscpimp
Feb 02 2004, 08:53 PM
I had on smartwool socks and BOOTS. I also had a hat on which was keeping my HEAD warm. My toes on the other hand no matter what i do they dont stay warm. I need to invest in some boots with Thinsulate or something but i still think golf in the snow sucks. #1 NO TRACTION #2 Lost Discs for no other reason then SNOW #3 Its cold as a witches T!TTY in a brass bra #4 I hate snow #5 NO TRACTION #6 Everyone plays like CRAP #7 I cant keep my feet warm #8 SNOW #9 SNOW and last but not least #10 SNOW AND NO TRACTION
How bout everyone climbs off my back about almost getting frost bite and not playing the second round and help me find boots that i can afford so maybe i can play in the SNOW.
Any tips would be helpful :D
I JUST LOVE HAVING TAG 100
bruce_brakel
Feb 02 2004, 11:19 PM
Sorry, Mills. Wasn't trying to give you crap. Was just trying to give you a little advice.
I love playing in the winter because it makes little difference to my game. At rated events it boosts my rating to be playing my same lackluster plugger game while everyone else is playing like its 5 degrees with a foot of snow on the ground.
bruce_brakel
Feb 02 2004, 11:25 PM
Was just noticing that 2 under in the late summer is 934 rated whereas 2 under in the worst of winter is 975 rated at Coldbrook.
Given the recent explosion of events designated as Worlds, how about a Winter Worlds?! :D
winter worlds would be AWSOME!!! if it where in AZ, FLA, TEX, or any other southern non-snowy state. you know, similar to the super bowl
pjefferies
Feb 03 2004, 01:12 AM
Some of that discrepancy is probably due to #22/D which is played short in the summer because of the beach and plays 1-2 strokes easier.
BTW, I agree about winter golf. The only differences I notice are shorter and more understable drives. I don't remember having any footing problems except for the slippery boards at the front of the tees which I shouldn't have been stepping-on anyway. Every mistake that I made could have been made in the summer. In some ways I think the snow is easier because of the lower amount of skipping. It's kind-of like a soft, wet green in Ball Golf.
you guys are nuts then, i cant play in this at all, i play alot better and more confident in the summer. i cant wait till the desert
Paul, The only reason u like the winter is because you cant throw far enogh to care, and can actually make a 15 footer regardless,
cbdiscpimp
Feb 03 2004, 11:51 AM
Are you a complete D!ck on purose or does it just come naturally. Well it doesnt matter because we will be in AZ playin golf in the Desert while you are here keeping warm with your insulation and playing in the snow :D

Feb 03 2004, 04:54 PM
you guys are nuts then, i cant play in this at all, i play alot better and more confident in the summer. i cant wait till the desert
I think that's it. A lot of players are "more confident" in the summer. That's just head game. If having to wear winter gear and play in winter conditions just like everyone else at the tournament gets in your head, you might as well head to AZ.
I don't play better in the winter, but I don't let that fact work me as much as some players. I figure the absence of foliage compensates for the disadvantages of snow and ice, and for me that benefits my head game.
cbdiscpimp
Feb 03 2004, 06:58 PM
Your right it kinda works me when i cant have traction under my plant foot cuz there is snow. It definatley works me when i cant feel or bend my toes though too. I am heading to AZ at the end of this month.

SUNDAY LEAGUE WILL BE AT BYRON PAR 3 COURSE THIS WEEK
Bruce, I'll bring my big shoval
From M-59 near Howell go due north on Oak Grove Road, jog left and then continue north, jog right in Cohoctah and continue north. At the end of Oak Grove Road turn left into to Byron. At the stop sign turn left on Maple. The course, Willow Brook, is on the left at the water tower.
From Lansing, take I-69 towards Flint. Go South on M-52 not very far to Britton Road. Left on Britton. Follow Britton. Turn right at the first T and then left at the next paved road. When you get to Bath Road turn left and I think Bath turns into Maple in Byron. Coming from this direction the water tower is on the left and the course is on the right.
From Flint, west on I-69 towards Lansing. South on M-13 until it ends at a T intersection. Turn right at the T. Take that road about 1.4 miles to a sign pointing left to Byron. Turn left. At the stop sign in Byron turn right and the course will be on the left.
Bring $5. We'll play one of the formats we are playing for the tournament which is now nine days away on Saturday the 28th.
How did Sunday league at Byron go?
bruce_brakel
Feb 24 2004, 11:59 PM
League went so-so. We had a good turn out compared to league at Kensington the last couple of weeks. Mark could only see righty favorable holes everywhere he looked and he crabbed the whole time while his team kicked our behinds. Then when it ended in a tie for first he kind of insisted that the payout be donated to league and I think no one who went along with him on that was happy about it.
I'm getting calls and e-mails about the tournament. I'm getting the players guide, leader board cards and scorecards together. Friday I'm picking up some Z-Buzzzes, Crushes and Talons at Discraft.
The weather report is for upper 40's and some sunshine so the ice is going to be a bit thin for this Icebowl. This tournament will make a nice transition from Icebowl season to Mudfest season!
I'm going to set up some extra holes in case we have an overflow crowd. Plus i'm going to take Mark's crabbing at face value and tweak a few holes. Lots to do between now and Saturday.
HEY BRUCE I TRIED CALLING YOU BUT PHONE DIDNT GO THROUGH. nEED HELP TOMORRO(friday) I GOTS NOTHING 2 DO ALL DAY. CALL ME AND I'LL TRY TO BE THERE

I successfully defended #1 at the Ice Bowl. Michael Frame challenged, and it was a fair challenge given that we had partners of nearly equal ability.
Jamie Mosier, who on the immediate previous thread says he will try to be there, found a partner and won in Silver. I heard that he took a challenge and I have to assumre that he defended tag #2.
Can you think of two more vulnerable tags than #1 with me and #2 with Jamie?
pjefferies
Mar 03 2004, 01:51 AM
I don't think Jamie has #2 to defend.
Unfortunately, the DiscPimp didn't have the foresight to challenge me in AZ or he could have had it for a couple of rounds. In the end, I would have returned with it anyway though after the third round.
I won't mention the other MI player challenges.

Any interest in a Skill Shot Tag Challenge on the Tobbogan course this Saturday, March 6? The grass is short and the snow is gone. Now would seem to be the time to practice the course.
These are the rules:
1. You have to have a tag to play. Anyone can buy a tag for $10 and play.
2. There will be a $10 optional cash side bet paid out to the top 40%.
3. There will be a custom dyed Z-Crush for the winner.
4. The lead group will mark the tees and basket positions with flags so that we all play the same course. The lead group will include an Am Nationals player or volunteer. The trailing group will pick up the flags.
5. Each group will be issued a Skill Shot basket.
6. The player with honors has to carry the basket. He also has to go set up the basket whenever anyone in the group is within range and so requests.
7. Singles. Stroke play. One round. All tags are challenged by all other tags, on and off the card.
Organize at 10:00 a.m. unless you see something otherwise on this thread. The Number 1 tag will be present. Please RSVP here or by e-mail to participate, so I know how many baskets to bring.

How many times have you actually played the tobbogan? It is such a brutal course and you can even shoot 8's on holes if you go into the far right brush on number 3. A decent score will be in single digits. Nice shooting first two rounds in Arizona.

Bruce -
Did you contact the park superintendent, Dick Schaeffer, and obtain permission? Please do this first. The Toboggan area is protected by the park, and we can't just show up and start throwing discs. If we tick them off, you may decrease the chances of having the Toboggan course at future events.
bruce_brakel
Mar 03 2004, 04:02 PM
I checked the rules and regs and the park map. The nature areas are for limited use. The Nature Study area is across the road west of the Tobbogan area. The Tobbogan area is not designated as a nature area. There are no nature trails in the Tobbogan area. It is general recreational parkland open to the public subject to whatever rules are posted in the area. So long as we do not have more than 50 people in attendance we do not need special permission for an event. Our use of the area is no different from the people who are walking dogs on leashes.
10:00 a.m. Saturday if you are in.
bruce_brakel
Mar 03 2004, 04:31 PM
Rather than give the park people a chance to make up a new rule, I'll check with Mr. Am Nationals. We have played so many casual rounds out there over the last four years, I'd think we'd know by now if that was against real park rules.
i will most likely see you there on saturday Bruce and if we cant use the Tobbogan then we might as well play the tag challenge at the Tunnel course.
Bruce are you going to have those new buzzes for sale this weekend?

I'm interested in this little adventure, however, I'm moving to Augusta, GA on the 15, and as such, I have no need for a tag. Even if I were to purchase one, I would just be giving it back at the end of the round anyway. Soooo, can I just play for the $10 cash game? I'll exclude myself from the Crush availability as well. Let me know what can be worked out so that I may get in a little competitve practice before the March Meltdown on Sunday.
And when playing for cash, isn't always the more the merrier?
Thanks.
Hey Millz i will be at cass around 1 pm or so.

O.k., new rule, if you are moving to Georgia in two weeks, you can get in on the sidebet and not buy a tag. Anybody have a problem with that?
Millz, are you coming? Mosier? Scooter? Anyone else?
Scooter and I are about 80 % sure. I talked to a few others at Kensington to day and found out that they were interested in coming.

Big Discin took first cash and I took second, of those playing the side bet. Scooter won first tag and I now have #3. Scooter also won the one of the bear paw discs.
Millz off-loaded the schule monkey 100 tag.

Millz meant to say he made an 87 tag jump. He went from 100 to 13.
scores? who came and whos big discin anyway? by the way nick you suck(on the assumption u got 100 now)
Jamie, in order to find out you may want to read his profile, that is if you can read ... you know Reading Is Fundamental.
Why were you not there afraid to take 100 back to South Lyon with you ???? :eek: :eek: :eek: :D
Next time any event happens im sticking you Jaime with the 100 and you are going to cry. Or are you going to hide your bag tag like at Hudson League. Hiding your bag tag must mean that you suck and have a lower tag then your play.

Thanks bruce. After the double circle seven on hole three my brain is all messed up
I have the biggest jump of bag tags now Bruce. I went from having number 100 to 8 which is a 92 jump. It was excellent now Daemon Stahlin has 100.
Scooter won advanced with a -4 for both rounds. Scooter is still number 1 in the bag tag challenge.
Tag # 8 checking in. By the way is anyone going to K-Zoo.

I think it's my number one too Nick but I think that Scott may have something to say about it for now. :)
Sorry, I couldn't resist. I'm sure that you'll study contractions in school next year.
yo rhett, you can get your starfire in the back of that kids truck in AZ that was draggn his contraption through the lake....im sure hes got about 20 of my discs by now, take em all. god knows theres some sweet discs of mine in there....man i fell apart that second round..my third round was fun though, i used my putter only on most of the last back holes, taht was pretty fun...i crushed that new cryZtal challenger 300 a couple times
Nick u must be good to hav #8 and ur mouth. is ur rating out of the 700s yet. is kelsy brackles rating better than urs?
Oh ya i have my tag inside my bag so it doesnt get banged up. have u seen no 2 after i got rid of it so shut up u little ******

Finally you answer! :) Still wish we could've met. Were you at Duke's Thursday night? I stopped by about 7:45 and looked around, so I was late. I didn't see any pimp-looking hats and the people I talked to said jonjon had been there about 7:00 but then left with his wife. So were you guys there? No biggie, just wondering.
And yes I owned you! :D

Atleast one of us MI guys Represented
rhett you didnt own me, i owned myself, we where tied after teh first round, then i have no clue what happened the second round to me....maybe it was the 7am start or that my first 2 drives went into the lake and set me off there, no biggie...thats was just my spring training, i have all summer to get my [*****] back together i aint scared...come out east and play me on my turff and see whats up....or better yet, ill meet you half way at the KC Wide Open. yes we where at Dukes, i practacly lived there all week i was there...anyone try there fried egg burger? **** that was good.. next time ill nut up and try the peanut butter and jelly burger :D

I started at 7:36 AM on Friday, so no "it was early" excuses! :) Also, Phoenix is not my "home turf". I've only played that course at the 2002 and 2004 Memorials, no other times. So drop that excuse too, westa! You hacked, own up to it. ;)
Yes pimp owned me. I admit it. I couldn't turn the corner and come home worth a crap on the extra holes and evidently the pimp-man could. Nice shooting! It was aggravating for me because I good (not great) rounds going with 4 holes to go both Friday and Saturday and couldn't close them out. :mad:
I'll be in Des Moines in August for a rematch. I hope Ole Man Bagger division plays the same tees/course as MA1 so westa doesn't have any excuses. :) :D :)

bruce_brakel
Mar 11 2004, 12:00 PM
I don't want to tick Millz off but you have to know what prompted that. Last weekend he had me by a stroke going into the last hole and he was tied for first cash. I threw my drive off the big hill, CB#3, into the pine tree in front of the short tee. Throwing next, I threw my upshot into the river. So its over for me, right? But then I hear this gurgling "aggghghghgg" coming from Millz as he throws his upshot o.b. over the road and then puts his next throw into the river! My five on the hole picked up two strokes on Millz's 7.
Choke!
Name one tourny ive chocked at this year. Millz, thats another story. But we'll see
Still gots #4
cbdiscpimp
Mar 11 2004, 12:17 PM
Choke!
Choke NO!!!! Complete and utter STUPIDITY AND LACK OF MENTAL AND SELF CONTROL YES YES YES YES YES. When im shooting well i need to just take the smart easy route to the basket and either make par or bogey but i tend to try and advance my lead beyond my means. This is something that i am WORKING ON PRETTY HARD. You should see my name popping up in the to 5 regularly once i get this under control. I did it at the Memorial. I did it at the Tag Challenge. I did it at the Hudson Mills when i was 2 down going into hole 1 on the monster from short tee to champ basket. Instead of parkin the short basket and making and easy three i decide to go over the top and make a HORRIBLE seven to go from 2 under on the day to 2 over then proceed to hack the next 4 holes to shoot a horrid 6 over :mad: Yeah Jamie doesnt choke he just SUCKS there is no room for him to choke when he never makes the lead card. HAHAHAHA LMAO :o

Brett, you are making my point for me. At stupid unsanctioned stuff everywhere you kick my [*****]. Yet somehow I have ten rating points on you. The only explanation can be that at the sanctioned tournaments you're choking. And you can't count Lemon Lake. That was before I had gotten any diagnosis and treatment for my vertigo problem. I could barely walk that day. I was ready to quit for life if no one was going to diagnose that problem.
Westa, I'm in Chicago this weekend playing stupid unsanctioned stuff and getting my [*****] kicked by Brett. I will be at the tourney at Stoney the following weekend, but not to play. I'll come on over later in the morning. I'll also be at the No Foolin' both days, probably. The girls are playing on Saturday and I'm playing on Sunday.
cevalkyrie
Mar 11 2004, 04:16 PM
Well then, that sounds great for Saturday then. Since this is not sanctioned, I should kick your arse! :D
Mills, when was the last time u made lead card in am 1. Note starting the 1st round on #1 doesnt count. Though ive been top dog card 6 times ever(in am 1) only one tourney did istay there. the others i didnt even cash, look at the present not the past though. I cashed in every tourny iv played am this year. I will give you the credit for improving on the whole mental thing. It wasnt really your faul on the last few hole, except #1 that wasnt choking that was needing to take risk to get back in the hunt. Plus ur wrong about the score. you were only one down going into #1. my advise to u this weekend in K-zoo dont go for deuces(except the obviose) at battle creek. Most holes are reachable easily but as paul puts it true par threes where you need to set up a safe drive if you want even a look at pars. And bring your thumber for oshtemo. Bring D for Rob Morris. see u there. Dont use your mindset off to cover up choking. anytime you go from somwhere to worse thats called choking in my book.

Millz, somewhere in the fine print it says Jen can get in so long as she isn't better than Juliana. Sue can get in too.
[shuffling through the stack of stuff on my desk...]
Here it is, Rule 3:
Eligibility. Anyone can buy a tag for $10 and participate, while supplies last. Only amateurs who participate in the tag finals and pros rated less than 950 who participate in the tag finals are eligible for year-end prizes.

i had a decent year last year, got my rating a lil bit higher than yours, and thats long tees gettn my arse kicked
Millz and Mosier stop fighting and really determine who is better by playing four rounds of disc golf. That will really determine who is a better disc golfer! ;)

watch out guys!
Hey Jen I made the biggest tag jump from number 100 to 8 just look back further in the postings.
Hey Lane you can get them from Bruce Brakel.
Unless Bruce took Jamie's tag and that would be crazy cause jamie left his bag in K-Zoo.
bruce_brakel
Mar 16 2004, 12:15 AM
Jamie had enough discs to play competitively. He just s-ucked is all. We gave Jen five strokes and she came in second. If we had not given Jen any strokes, SHE STILL WOULD HAVE COME IN SECOND!!! Nice shooting, Jen.
I shot -4 from Kensington longs and now own Tag 1. I don't possess tag 1. It is somewhere in Paul's car, we hope. And, if it is permanently lost, I think we will have to make Jamie pay for the replacement.
Look out for Tommie Mikowski. I doubt that he wants to have Jon's tag 99 for long!
Jon, Brett: -4 is a 973 rated round.
----------------------
I am going to make every effort to get out to the unsanctioned thing at Stoney this Sunday if anyone wants to buy a tag. I won't be playing. I'll be there at registration putting on a practice basket. Once registration is done, I'll go take care of my Sunday responsibilities.
The next iron clad taggertunity after that will be the No Foolin'. I'll be taking MDGO sign ups. I'll have tags with me.

In reply to Me DNFing so as not to finish DFL. That is a complete and utter lie. I Drank a Pint of Crown Royal and like 10 beers the nite before and my phone got lost in the couch so i didnt hear the alarm go off on it. I woke up @ 930 and tried to drive to Kimball pines which after 45 minutes of looking i could not find so i turned around and went back to my buddys place @ Western and went back to sleep. Then there was no reason to go play Coldbrook after having to take 7's for 18 holes. Which would be a 72 OVER PAR. Plus it was my friends 21st birthday that nite and i needed to get the rest anyway. SORRY to dissapoint you Jamie but i wont DNF just because i am playing poorly. I DNF at Cracked plastic because i could move my toes after the first round and playing a Second one and getting frostbite isnt worth it. Its ok though ill be @ Stony on sunday. Then No Foolin then Bowling Green and so on and so forth for the rest of the year. Im not getting drunk the nite before tournys anymore either to we wont have mishaps like this again
Kimball Pines was really hard Millz. It was worse than Oshtemo. You should be glad that you didnt have to play in that snowy mess. Jen I have tag 12. But what tag does Jamie now have?
I will be playing at NO Foolin so maybe you can challenge me there. Are you going to be running Cass league this year?
dischick
Mar 16 2004, 04:43 PM
i think jamie got 21. sean and i traded, i gave him 20. tommy bought i beleive 21 or 22 which is what jamie got, and tommy ended up with 99.
yes i will be running cass league again this year. new day...Tuesday, hopefully that will bring more people out. we will start on tuesday april 6th at 5 at the usual spot. there will be added money for the first night from FLYING SAUCER DG. look for the signs that will be posted and tell all your friends!
Sounds very interesting!!!!!! :cool:
Bruce im getting my bag back so u WILL lose your tag back to me. R u going to league on sunday? Singles round b4 or after? I want as fair of a chance as u get to get my tag #1 back with discs i actually can throw? You turn down this and that diserves calling out! (Unless u rnt goin to be there)

Jamie if you look back 1 page you will see that Bruce has advised that he will be at Stoney Creek Sunday to hawk more tags. Maybe you could go out there and see if you could move up some places at that tournament.
No $ otherwise id be there, and for the recor i have 22
This is my 1st silver tag :mad::confused: :p

Get used to it!
Jamie is tag #1 with your bag, then? You will not be challenging for Tag #1 until after I get Tag #1. If I have to buy a replacement Tag #1 you won't be challenging for Tag #1 until you pay for Tag #1.
My plan for Sunday was to go out to Stoney to see if I could sell some tags and then go to late church because I'll miss early church. Then I might have to take Kelsey to a stamp show. I won't be free until 2:30 or 3:00.
Tag #1 shall be urs when i get it... Then we challenge... I'll then possess tg numeral uno then... WITH MY BAG
jen came out to my home courses today to bring me tag#18, we played one round at freeland and i got her #14 by only a couple strokes, we then proceeded to the midland course so she could have a chance to win it back.....jen good luck with that number 18 down there, "dump" it on nickbrown, ill keep 14 secure till i can challenge some chump down there. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Saturday April 10 has got nothing going on because of the holiday the following day that disc golfers don't observe. I don't understand the logic of that, but there you go.
I'd like to organize something that day, preferably on a course where you can reach back and throw from time to time. Maybe on a private pay-to-play course.

I shot -1 on Original Longs and +4 on Monster Longs/Traditional Baskets. Paul pulled a lat and could not keep up. Paul may be out for a bit. It really stiffened up at lunch.
Tag 15 will be making it's first appearance at April Fool's - I've been playing like some really stinky doggie doo-doo since the flu recently inflicted a total ***-whipping upon me but hopefully I'll show up next Sunday with enough game to move up the ladder a wee bit. How does it work when a bunch of tags show up at the same event?

30 or 31 tags are in circulation now. I hope we sell ten or twenty at the No Foolin'. Then we will be past break-even and will be adding money to the tag finals.
You have to accept challenges on your card. "Your card" is your foursome, threesome or fivesome. You may challenge and accept challenges from off your card, but do not have to. At the end of the round, square up on the card first. Then go resolve any off card challenges.
If there are linked challenges off card, like you challenged Paul and Jamie challenged Paul and Paul challenged me, treat that whole thing as one challenge. Lowest score gets lowest tag.
We played after league new tags as follows:
Sean Lipke #2
Todd White #14 (so he ctually does leave his house) :eek:
Tommy M. #20
Scooter #22
Me .....pause so you all can laugh
#99
Yeah, first day with my regular discs back and shoot the worst round of the year. Though I dont posses it its mine. Tommys mom took his car this morning, with his bag in it so, he played with mine and seans discs. I'll phisically have it tommarow thow its likely that ill have already gotton rid of it i would like to have it till sunday and hand it off to someone like... Bruce, Scooter, or Pauly(want a cracker?)

You know, when I fished #99 out of the box that Bruce had because I figured I'd just be keeping it all summer. Might as well get the # that I deserve right out of the box, as it were. I never had any idea that the next day I'd beat Bruce by 3 strokes on a 9 hole course and that just a week later you'd earn it, Jamie! But I have no regrets that everything worked out like this. ;)
Todd does have 4 i just forgot there was no one b4 4 in 4

If you did not receive a copy of the rules when you bought your tag, shame on me. I'm going to update the rules sheet with more accurate hypothetical payouts and see if Jon will make me a webpage.
We are 3 months into the Tag Challenge and I've sold 31 tags, 1-27, a tag in the 30s, and 97-99. I'm only going to sell 100 tags and then I'm capping it. I don't want to sell more tags than we can accomodate players at the tag finals. If I do sell all 100 tags, we'll have $500-$600 added cash for tag holders at the finals. At the Tag Finals tag holders will have bumping rights over non-tag holders.

I'll put something up, Bruce. From now on you can just tell people to go to http://home.comcast.net/~illinoisopen/ for any of the pages that I do for you and then I'll have a link that goes to the individual page. Just e-mail what you want on it.

This is why, if you have a tag, you need to sell the idea to two other disc golfers. If we sell all 100 tags, the added cash or prizes for the top 10 at the Tag Finals will look like this:
<table border="1"><tr><td></td></tr><tr><td>Bought</td><td>100:</td><td>-377
</td></tr><tr><td>Sold</td><td>100:</td><td>+1000
</td></tr><tr><td>Net payout:</td><td></td><td>+623</tr></td></table>
<table border="1"><tr><td></td></tr><tr><td>Place</td><td> Cash</td><td> Prizes
</td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td> 125</td><td> 187
</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td> 100</td><td> 150
</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td> 89</td><td> 134
</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td> 78</td><td> 117
</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td> 67</td><td> 100
</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td> 56</td><td> 84
</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td> 45</td><td> 67
</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td> 32</td><td> 48
</td></tr><tr><td>9</td><td> 21</td><td> 32
</td></tr><tr><td>10</td><td> 10</td><td> 15
</td></tr><tr><td>total</td><td> 623</td><td> 934</tr></td></table> :eek:
Cash / Prizes is an either/or and I don't care; whatever works for you. It is a sidebet so even if we were to sanction the Tag Finals, you can still take cash on the Tag Challenge.
This assumes that we don't pay out some along the way in the form of CTPs and stuff.

What you do i have to you do to get another tag is pay another $10. If you really wanted a replacement 13, you'd have to pay $14.95 plus shipping and handling.

Mar 25 2004, 02:58 PM
What tags are you selling right now. When can i get another one. I could care less if i get a replacement #13 if its ok with you ill just buy another tag even if its really high because ill get rid of it this weekend anyway :D Will you be there saturday to sell tags or just on sunday.

Mar 25 2004, 03:45 PM
I will be there both days to take MDGO Season Overall signups. I'll have tags on my person while taking MDGO signups.
You know, since you are just trading it for #1 on Sunday, why not take #96 and get some more schule monkey tags in circulation? The low numbers now are like 28 or 29, I think.
i was just saying your a MORON and cant put a clear and coherent sentence that someone could understand...
As long as I know you like to do the grammar thing... "your" is the possessive of you. As in "Your moron brother just ate my cell phone." "You're" is a contraction of "you are". As in "You're a moron and can't put a clear and coherent sentence together that someone could understand." ;)

Straight up or did you get a handicap? Cuz you're too good for the intermediates to be giving you strokes anymore. You're almost as good as some fat old men we know.

I know how you feel, i pretty much have to drive an hour and a half south to play for tags, im the only one in my area that has a metro park tag....these **** hillbilly yokals, i hate em i tell ya.
and here i thought you were going to say you were going to take it away from me,thanks westa :)
it is nice to know that i can go to my local corse and there will be tags there. HaHa
Millz, it is handycap(you have to "handy" over some strokes)

TAG 8 Checking IN
Made an 88 Tag jump today when i shot 12 down and No Foolin. Thanks Scooter for being my caddy :Dand im going to use a key ring and a Carabiner (i dont think thats how its spelled but you get the idea)
Nick Brown has the Schule monkey 96 Tag which i put into circulation when i bought it from bruce this morning :D :D
Brett successfully defended metro tag #3 three times today. I thought I was going to get it at Oly in the first round. I had a 3 stroke lead on him and then he aced. I hit a tree on my approach shot on the same hole and carded a 5! We played 36 at Oly and then went to Mokena and played 18 or 25. I quit after 18 because my feet were hurting and I wasn't having fun anymore. Brett and Damon finished the courses 25 holes. They have 2 more holes to put in. The course is like a beefed up 27 hole fire fighters. There are three fly pads on most of the holes. I think 3 or 4 holes only had one pad. And then there were another 3 or 4 that only had two pads. Tough course. Best course in northern Illinois now.

I defended #1 this morning against 951 rated Brook Plantz and a few other decent disc golfers, but lost it to Jim Daniels. Brook got in not understanding the ratings cap rule. At the end of the day he won #1 so i gave him his choice of the tag and the disc or a refund and he took the tag and the disc.
The rule is Brook can't compete at the tag finals for tag added prizes unless he loses two rating points. He said he'd get on that ight away!
I've now broken even and am now adding cash to the finals and bonus stuff to events. Today's Champion dyed Orc was valued at $8 which was its wholesale value. The Tag Challenge is now $15 to the good.
I sold a tag to a Chicago player who is playing somewhere between Jon and Brett's level. I beat her by about 6 strokes per round so maybe she shot 900 golf today. If you guys are playing the same tees as Barratt at Oly or the Illinois State Champs, introduce yourselves and go for it.

First time i have ever done decent at hudson mills :D :eek: :)
Look at the comparison

Jamie played Bronze so my +9 doesn't beat his +10. :mad: We were not on the same courses round by round. Jamie, what was the winning score in Bronze?
For everyone following the smack talk, I did beat Millz, Mosier, and Jeffries. But I shot hot in the morning and tepid in the afternoon, so I get to carry a big fat 33 for awhile.
+10 won bronze :cool:
Me and frame tied, went into playoff both pared #1 and #2
went to 18 from there. and i pared he 4ed it so me win.
It was worth 140 in funny money and an estimated 100 or so + $50 to ashlees form the package for hot monster round
