15 stings me again for another 5! That makes 4 in a row. This thing could be officially a par 5. I had a 5, Josh Case had a lucky 4 (from the worst drive), 2K didn't finish the hole but was laying 3 going to get 5 at best.

Scoring Spread baby, you gotta love it.

7- 2's basket
8- 1's long sleeve
9- 18's basket
I do like all these holes, but want to make a few changes. It is going to get pretty old moving baskets to play it all the time. I don't really care about crossing fairways since there is very little foot traffic out there.

My ideas.
1- Is good, I see no reason to move it.
2- I think is the best hole that we play on the course.
3- NEEDS A CHANGE. I don't like moving a basket all the time. We could maybe find a way to play to #2 basket?
4- Looks cool, but it is a simple hyzer. We could play to #4 short and bring some trees into play.
5- Is a cool hole
6- A very good hole
7*** Not hard enough. Not what we need for a shot.
8*** Moving a basket blows.
9 Cool hole.

So we need to fix the 7/8 problem more then anything. From the basket 14, there are very few trees and options to play. It would be easy to go from 14's basket hole 6 over to hole 9.

So the idea is to have 3 sets of tees for each hole (blue, red, white that match division levels), alt baskets on how many holes?, and then a special orange tee course that is 9 holes? You gotta know where these are and they play to the baskets just mentioned. What is the idea with the orange course, just something different? It would be cool to see a superlong 9 hole skins course.

The orange course is a fairly short 9 hole course, with many options off the tee pad. Tons of trees come into play, so it's really not too easy.

The regular 18 hole grove course has 9 holes with alternate pin placements.

I don't really care for the Red, white, blue tees on that course. I guess if the tees drastically changed the hole, and weren't just longer or shorter on the same line.

Hee!Heee! Hee! If we keep at the pace we are on then there will be more concrete in the grove than dirt, and there are only so many color selections of spray paint in the hardware store. I think I might check wally worlds selection of colors to see how many tee pads we can actually have. 18 hole course with 32 alternate pads, awsome. Hee! Hee! Ha! Ha! mrsenortyler keep up the suggestions cause its funny when smittys wheels are turning so fast that the smoke is comming out his ears. LMAO. See you guys this weekend.

Didn't move baskets, but did play the short 9 with the wife and kids. That was a good time. Cameron picked up probably 20 beer/pop cans in his jeep.

I did play hole 15 twice. Got a 4 throwing the Force then the Buzzz. I was probably 45 foot out with a death putt, so I just put it short of the basket for a chip in 4.

I also got a 3 going Star Wraith (Chris Tylers that Burley gave me), Banger GT, Drop in 3.

This is a memorial for discs lost in action.

What is a death putt, Smitty? Can you demonstrate with your best skeleton face?

Now that hole 7 doesn't tee off down the road, we aren't losing discs on it. Before, I would say that it was one of the top four holes for lost discs. Hole 10, 11, 15 being the others in the past. On hole 11, I can't even begin to count the number of Orcs that Joel and Nick used to throw in.
