Love Sunday!


Carpooled with JB [Jon Baldwin] to Pinto Lake, where we met Tony Tran, Troy Farrington & Scottie D to play around of Disc Golf.

The beauty of Pinto, not withstanding the surrounding geography, is how tranquil it is compared to DeLaVeaga.



This was my first round at Pinto since the Worlds back in August. It was an unbelievably beautiful day for the end of January, with temps approaching 70 degrees. I started off poorly, with bogeys on 3 of the first 4 holes. I finally started to play smarter when we reached the meadow, and finished the round at 1 over par, with a bogey on the last hole.

We saw the John Hernlund birthday group on hole #1 as we were finishing: John, his wife Christine, Sharon & Leroy Jenkins, Merle Witvoet and Teri Duncan amongst others, were all having a great time.

More importantly, I was able to throw my new 'blizzard' discs that I received from HeroDiscUsa.com, and I am amazed at the increased distance I am getting. I am partial to the Katana and the Wraith, as the Destroyer and Boss are somewhat overstable for my arm speed. If you have not tried these discs yet, you need to!

I don't know how many of you play or have heard of Disc Golf, but there is a new course that was installed less than an hour away that is facing some unwarranted opposition and has actually cause the baskets at the course to be pulled while an official "review" is done to measure the environmental impact.

Please sign the petition and share to help save the course!

Järva DG is still threatened.

Järva DG is still threatened. We await the consultation program when the city will present a more detailed proposal on the cemetery and all concerned to officially express their opinions. This consultation is of no earlier than the May estimate. Brian Graham (PDGA) received in response to his letter to the Sports Committee, the politicians who make decisions in sporting matters, that Järva DGP shall in no case be closed, or reduced. We'll see what those words are worth and how much my and opinions of others in the consultation program are worth."
