Tuesday / Wednesday Disc Golf at Tyler and Rutgers; More Disc Golf Monthly Studio time; Cubby gets his 100th Skip Ace; plus 14 birdies in a row
Headed to Tyler State Park in Newtown, PA for a round of 27 Holes before going to the studio for Disc Golf Monthly show production.
Check out the new T-Shirts I got from Ergophobia.com I wore 3 of the 5 during this Disc Golf adventure. The shirts look great and are very comfortable for Disc Golf use. I highly recommend these T-Shirts.
Mike joined me for the last two holes at Tyler.
Matt Lacourte and Cubby in the Studio for production of a future show.
After the studio work was done I headed to Rutgers for more Disc Golf. Thanks to Big "lucky" John for posting on the message board that I was heading to Rutgers.
Jeff, Cubby, and Steve.
After 8 Holes, I was joined by Jeff and Steve for some more rounds. I got my 309th Ace on Hole 9. It was my 100th Skip Ace. The last time I hit an Ace was playing with Steve and Jeff in June.
Cubby's 309th Ace Photo.
Jeff left after two rounds and Steve and I played some more rounds.
Chris arrived as Steve was leaving and Chris and I got in lots of rounds. I shot 14 birdies in a row during the last round only to par the last 4 holes. 14 birdies in a row is my personal best. I really thought I might have a run at 18 in a row beating my best of 17 under at Rutgers. Maybe next time.
Thanks to everyone that came out to play. Chris and I finished at 3:30AM on Wednesday. I am still waiting for that elusive Ace when I am playing a round with Chris. Can't say I didn't try I had Ace run after ace run.

Here we are at the start of the Green Acres Tag Round. Don managed to mess with my hat just before the picture was taken. Cubby won the round by two strokes taking the Green Acres number 1 tag from Don. The Monarch came close to getting the Ace a number of times.
Good Luck to Tim getting ready to compete in the 2008 PDGA Disc Golf World Championships in Michigan.

Friday (Night Disc Golf) Morning at Rutgers
Closed at 2AM on Friday Morning. Since a TV crew from FOX5 in New York would be filming on the Boardwalk in the Morning I have to open the store at 5:30AM. So with 3 and a half hours between closing and opening the options are drive home and get very little if any sleep or go play a round of Disc Golf before returning to work. You guessed it, Disc Golf was the choice.
Here are some pictures of some holes in the dark enhanced by the low light capability of my new Nikon P80 Digital Camera:
Hole 9.
Hole 10.
Here are the FOX5 folks reporting at the Boardwalk this morning:
It's now 8:39AM, heading home for some sleep before coming back to work in the afternoon. I need to voice a script for Disc Golf Monthly too before coming back to work.

Cubby upgrades his Camera for better Night Disc Golf Photos
I returned my Nikon L18 and upgraded to a Nikon P80. The new camera will take pictures at 10 Megapixels and is the worlds smallest digital camera with 18X zoom. It also has a great low light capability of ISO 6400 at 3 Megapixels. Looking forward to getting it out on the course. Now that I have a digital camera with manual control capability and a low light capability, I hope to tkae some cool Night Disc Golf photos.

Monday Night and Tuesday Morning Disc Golf at Manalapan and Rutgers and Cubby really digs the Innova Champion Monarch. Happy Birthday to Daisy!
Headed to the Mall in Freehold so Ana and Tea could buy a Mac Notebook. After the purchase we stopped at Manalapan for 8 hioles of Disc Golf.
Ana C. and Tea M. pose with a new laptop computer.
I got a call from Chris while we were playing the last hole and we made plans to play at Rutgers after I dropped the ladies off back in Point Pleasant.
Cubby and Chris at 10:30PM at Rutgers.
The most memorable round was Chris taking Cubby in a one hole playoff.
I used the Innova Champion Monarch disc I got from Matt LaCourte for the first time and I love that disc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a great addition to my bag. It ranks right up there with the Firebird and Destoyer as one of my favorite discs. It is a great straight/turnover disc. I came close to hitting the Ace with this disc many times, it put me in double digits under par round after round.
Dennis joined us before Midnight. We got in lots of rounds with Cubby and Dennnis finishing up at 5AM.
Dennis makes the putt on Hole 8.

Big John and I were going to meet up at Rutgers at 9:30AM for some rounds but I had to cancel as I was out and energy, sore, and very tired. Sorry my friend, looking forward to some rounds together real soon.
Happy Birthday to my dog Daisy turning one year old today.

CDGW gets a new digital camera
Thursday (Night Disc Golf) Morning Disc Golf at Rutgers and the Excalibur does some damage
Headed up to Rutgers Disc Golf course after work on Wednesday. Got ot the course at 2:30AM on Thursday.
I hit my cameral while filming a drive. The Innova Star Excalibur on a skip shot hit my Nikon L12 Camera perfectly in the center of the lens popping it out of the camera housing killing the camera. Oh well another item for the CDGW memorabilia department.
Here is a picture of the deceased camera taken with my back-up camera, the Nikon coolpix 5600.
