Sunday Disc Golf at New Quarter Park. The 12th Annual Fall Colors Disc Golf Tournament

The players meeting at the 12th Annual Fall Colors DGC.

Every year I try to get back down to Virginia where I learned how to play Disc Golf. It always great to see my old Disc Golf friends and compete in the tournament where I got my first PDGA tournament victory as an Inermediate AM player at the 1st Fall Colors event in 1998. This year I competed in the Advanced Grandmasters Division.

Cubby, Mark, Peter, Lewis.

Here is the group I played with during the first round. The 3 players in this group were competing in the Pro Grandmaster Divison. (Lewis ended up winning the Pro Grandmaster Division) Peter turned 50 today. I shot a 67 the first round.

After the first round we had a great lunch provided by the event staff.

Bob, Stuart, Cubby, and Tom.

I was tied for first with Tom after the first round and Stuart and Bob were two strokes back. Stuart was the 2006 PDGA Advanced Grandmasters Disc Golf World Champion. I competed with him in the Advaced Masters Division at the 2000, 2001, 2002, and 2003 Am Worlds. A new Job in 2004 prevented me from future competition at the Worlds. During this round, I shot a 64 to take first in the ADV GM Div. Stuart and Bob tied for second 5 stokes back.

Playing New Quarter was a real treat today as this challenging long and wooded course was played for the first time with new basket positions, most of them in a longer position. This is one of the best courses around! Congrats to everyone that works hard to make this a great course and a great tournament.

I also had the pleasure of throwing 7 holes in practice before the event with the 2004 Junior PDGA Disc Golf World Champion Shane Lynch. Shane won his title at 12 years old. I got to play lots of rounds with Shane and his Dad Mark back in 1998. It was great to see all the regulars I used to play with when I lived in Virginia. I am looking forward to next November.

Thursday Disc Golf at Rutgers

After work on Thursday I headed up to the Rutgers Disc Golf Course for some rounds of Disc Golf. When I got to the 18th hole during my first round, I noticed a car parked on the circle near the left side of the tree that hides 18's basket. I put my bag on the tee sign and walked to the vehicle to ask the young lady if she could move the vehicle showing her my yelow firebird and explaining that I was going to throw the disc to the adjacent basket and her car might be in the way. She moved the vehicle to the other side of the circle and I walked back to the tee. I took the yellow firebird that I had carried down to her car and threw it lefty and made a nice skip shot for my 401st Ace. She waved to me from her car in approval. A pretty cool Ace for sure. That would have been cool to capture that all on video. On the next round I missed the Ace on Hole 9 when my disc bounced out of the basket. I continued to play until it got dark and then I headed home.
