    In College we played a game called Frisbee Football.  It was the
    rost game I ever played (except for my experience with Full
    Contact Basketball in high school).  Frisbee Football is exactly
    what it sounds likeand the position to shy away from is receiver,
    cuz when that nged disc floats up there inches away from you hands
    all the bad boys converge upon your extended body and... BOOM.
    
    But Frisbee Golf, no.

    ?????  Hey, MrT, give that modem (a DEC modem, I presume?) a kick in 
    the teeth or something.  Anymore, I cain't tell what the hail you're 
    saying.  Try CNTL-W to show which words you're dropping...

    It's worst than that, Glenn.  I've got Hayes SmartModem on a PC
    and half the time the errors don't even show up while editing, 
    but after entry.  And this cruddy emulator don't even map the VT
    keyboard properly.  I found *that* out after typing a long memo
    in A1, only to find out I had no gold file key function!  (Luckily
    I found the journal file when I got into the office.)

WOW!

Let's play Frisbee golf on rollerblades, while wearing a softball mitt on
one hand.

We can play four quarters of 15 minutes each, in between we get a 5 minute
Perrier and quiche break.  At halftime we candle pin bowl....

After the game we have a sip up in our Dockers with that new Canadian
fruit flavored aspirated mineral water...


Damn, that new batch of 'shrooms is STRONG!

    Next time you're in Pittsburgh, check out the frisbee golf course in
    Schenley Park.  I haven't had the occasion to play the game, YET, but
    they set up a nice course there and they have all kinds of tournaments
    throughout the summer.  Plus, on a nice hot sunny summer day, the
    "scenery" is out of this world.  Bods here, Bods there, Bods Bods
    everywhere!!!!!

    When I went to CMU, I parked my car in Schenley Park.  I can't imagine
    a disc golf course there.  Except for the normal golf course, it's all
    hillside.  Must be a tough course.

    How 'zackley does one play this here game?  Throw the friz into a hole?
    Are there obstacles?  Do you need lime green or tangerine pants and an
    alligator shirt like in regular golf?  do you sweat?
    
    Just wonderin'.

Gee, it sounds like it would be more fun if it involved any of the following:

	- a chainsaw
	- an axe
	- rubber boots
	- vaseline
	- a tractor
	- a rifle

Can any of these accoutrements be introduced in the game?

Can you wear roller blades?

Is it frowned upon if you wear Dockers to play disc golf?  

Can I use a compact disc around the hole?

Can I ground my disk in a hazard?

What do you drink after one of these games?  Is whisky considered too
boorish?  Is beer a faux pas?  

How many people actually eat quiche on the course?


Connie Chung wants to know........

    I think you have the wrong idea entirely, 'Saw.  No, you don't drink
    beer after...you drink it during.  Most people who play are wearing
    cutoffs.  If they are wearing Dockers, it's because they want them to
    get muddy jumping into the creeks and stuff.
    
    This weekend I saw two guys carying a cooler full of beer around the
    course with them while their girlfriends carried their discs.  My kind
    of caddies!

OHHHHH!!!!

I didn't understand properly until you mentioned the cooler, the beer, the
cutoffs, and DA WIMMINS!

Now I understand.  I'll have to see if I can't "set up" a course out here....


'Saw

PS  It still would be cool if someone had like a  whip or some vaseline or
    something 8^)

    Is there a course around Maynard area that any one knows off?

    I wouldn't mind landing in the rough a couple times.  Even if I did get
    a bad lay, I'm sure I could pull it out. ;-)

   A bunch of people get together every year out at the Isles of
Shoals (Portsmouth N.H.) and one of the activities is Disk Golf. 
We created the course using natural "holes" such as monuments, flagpoles,
trashcans, etc. Anywhere from par 3-5, some serious dog legs, large hazards
(ocean) and jet stream like winds! One of the more popular tournament
events during the week with under 40 crowd.

    On Friday, my unit held a meeting offsite at the park where I usually
    play Frisbee Golf, so we played 18 during lunch hour.  Some of my
    colleagues wanted to know how to play, so the day before I posted the
    following practice tips.  Thought you SPORTSters would enjoy them.

    I can bring an extra Frisbee, though it's not your official regulation
    disc golf frisbee.  I suggest that those planning on frisbee-golfing
    should practice tonight.  Here are some suggestions:
    
    	- take a plastic spoon and slap it on a wooden cutting board; such
    	action simulates the sound of your frisbee hitting a tree, after
    	which you say, "Sh!t."
    
    	- fill your kitchen sink with water and from across the kitchen,
    	toss in a reflector shield from your stove; such action simulates
    	the sound of your frisbee going in the creek -- also known as
    	The Moisture -- after which you say, "Sh!t."
    
    	- stand in the middle of your living room and pretend you have just
    	thrown your frisbee; using mental imagery, visualize your frisbee
    	curving hundreds of feet away from the target you were throwing at;
    	now twist your body in different directions thinking this will
    	somehow help your wayward frisbee change course in mid air and fly
    	where you wanted it to; after a few seconds of moving your body in
    	ways you never thought possible, drop your head and say, "Sh!t."
    
    By practicing these few simple techniques, the saying "Sh!t" part
    obviously being the most crucial to perfect, you should have no problem
    competing at the level Douglas and I have attained.
    
    Hope this helps.
