Well Tuesday has come and gone so that must mean I am a day behind this week. Let’s try to get caught up on what’s happening in the disc golf world in this area. With football season upon us, it’s time to switch the Sunday mini back to Skins, but other than that change we have a full mini schedule. The West Texas Doubles is getting closer and closer….have you found your partner yet? Online registration is open! Big Arms on the Brazos is this weekend up in Lubbock. It’s looking like next Saturday will be a work day at Brentwood, more details to follow next week on that. The CVDGA Ace Race info is ready to be released. There are a few other area tourneys that are a little ways off so we’ll just do a save the date on them.
MINIS
Tonight’s mini is set for handicap singles at Brentwood. Teetime is 6PM
Saturday’s mini will be at South Concho and is set for random doubles at 10am.
Sunday will be the first day of the return of the skins match at the lake. What does that mean? It means that holes are worth 25 cents each except for 9 and 18 which are 50 cents. That works out to $5 if you are wondering why those are the costs. There is also a $2 ace pot that is throw off for after the round if no aces are hit. Teetime stays the same….2pm.
9th Annual West Texas Doubles
2012 West Texas Doubles will be Sept 29-30. This year we are changing things up a little and will be headed back to the lake to start things off. We will play 2 rounds of 18 on Sat with one round at the original Lake Course and the other 18 will be a new temp course. Sunday we will head back into town to wrap it up with 28 holes playing Brentwood, Picnic Bend, and North Concho. Format to how courses will be played will be announced at the players meetings Sat & Sun.

2011 Ace Race player pack
Discraft describes the disc as follows:
The 2012 Ace Race prototype disc is officially classified as a long range driver, but it could be more accurately described as a hybrid driver and is superb for running aces! Faster than a Buzzz but slower than a Stalker, the disc offers players controlled fairway shots. At medium to fast speeds this disc will hold the line to finish with a slight hyzer. Give it a rip!
