We played one round and I got my 436th Ace on the next to the last hole . It was a nice Skip Ace with a Star Max. (We started on Hole 8 and finished on hole 7). I shot -11. After the round, I headed back to work to finish cleaning the store before heading home.

Today SGT. James (last name left out for security reasons) stopped in my store to bring back my Innova Pro Firebird that I gave him on December 05, 2008 to take with him to IRAQ. He kept it with him there and the disc got air time all over the country. I will post some pictures as soon as he e-mails them to me. It was great to see him return safe and I enjoyed visiting with him and his lovely family today. I will definately be retiring the Firebird to the trophy cabinet.

SGT., On behalf of a greateful nation I want to salute you for your service to our country. God Bless you and your family.

Sunday Morning Disc Golf at Rutgers

Cubby and Tim

I got home from work at 4:00Am and my youngest daughter's boyfriend Tim wanted to play Disc Golf so we headed up to Rutgers. We started at 5:47AM and finished at 8:10AM. We got in 4 rounds. I shot -10, -11, -11, and -10. This was Tim's first time on a course and he scored +7, +1, +5, +2. I chained out a number of times and hit metal off the tee but could not buy an Ace. I think Tim is now hooked on Disc Golf.

Friday Morning Disc Golf at Rutgers and some sweet plastic from Disc Golf Station

Headed up to Rutgers for some long overdue Disc Golf. The was the first chance I had to try out some new discs from the good people over at Disc Golf Station. Check out there link to the right of this page. They sent me 5 Discraft Meteor Golf Discs. My favorite midrange disc is the Discraft Flex Buzzz so I wanted to see how the Meteor was going to fly.



The Discraft Meteor, 5 times sweet!

After playing rounds for three hours with the Meteor I was really impressed with how well it performed at every speed. With the right disc angle and speed combination this disc did it all. I even liked putting with it. I also got my 435th Ace with a 177 gram Meteor. Move over Buzzz the Meteor has arrived!

Thursday Night / Friday Morning Disc Golf at Rutgers with Big John

After a long day at work ending late in the night on Thursday, I headed up to Rutgers for some Disc Golf. I sent a text message to Big John letting him know I was on my way to the course and as luck would have it, he was on his way home from work and said he would meet me at Rutgers for one round of Disc Golf.

We played match play and I won 4 up with 3 holes left. I had three ace runs hitting the pole on 9 and just missing chains on a skip run on 1 and a high cut shot on 6.

It was great to throw a round with Big John again. We hit a couple of golf balls afterwards and after John left I continued hitting golf balls and then continued to play more Disc Golf.

I got my 423, 424, and 425 Aces. On my 423rd Ace I used a Star Avair for a putter only round (the same disc Big John is holding in his hand in the photo we took together above). On my 424th Ace I was just about to throw and stopped to let a couple walk by. Looking back at my shot, they thought it was cool to see my skip shot hit the clains and land in the basket.

Wednesday Disc Golf at Rutgers and Manalapan. Firebirds versus the wind.

Headed over to Rutgers Disc Golf Course after dropping off my Sister, Brother-in-Law, and Niece at the JFK airport for their trip back home to the west coast after coming out for my middle Daughters Wedding. I got my 421st Ace, a lefty skip ace.


Cubby's 421st Ace Photo.


After playing at Rutgers, I headed to the Manalapan Recreation Center Disc Golf Course. I got my 422nd Ace on a very windy day. I threw a very wide shot due to the fierce cross wind and from my vantage point it was one of the widest shots I have ever thrown for an Ace. I got the shot on video but threw it so wide that you don't see much of the flight of the disc until the wind carries it hard back to the basket. This is my first Ace video of the year. You can hear on onlooker say get in the hole as I was throwing my drive on the Ace.
