1st place at FVO, disc golf at mt. morris and appleton area
there's a ton of pix in this post, so imageshack may not let you load them all on the first refresh.
two weekends ago, after the eau claire weekend, i won int am at the fox valley open at grignon in kaukauna. just 16 played ppl in the div, but lotsa the top of the pin high tour. so that's nice, got my first black disc.
this past friday i tripped up to green bay and played my way back down to milwaukee on saturday. played dretka from the longs sun (short pins) and shot -1, shot about that well there today with a coupla newbs, one from australia.
one of the few shots from tower ridge, brita from MN putting
i went up near steven's point, in Wautoma WI, to find an unlisted and unmapped course at a place called Mt. Morris Camp and Conference Center. a friend who'd been on the roadtrip to TN recently said it was as good as those, so i had to see. it's pretty damn good, and i captured the holes as best i could
hole 1's basket
hole 2
hole 3's really obstructed at first, then plenty of open over a midrange's distance
hole 4's tough. a big tree's in your way to start over a long hole
looking backwards, the pin's guarded too
hole 5's a flick into a cubby a little deeper in than the road turns off
hole 6's an impossibly tight flick through trouble opening into a field
hole 7's a scenic stretched hyzer following along a ditch
a meandering river alongside the walk
hole 8's a pretty hole; empty your bag going for an ace. over the river and moderately downhill midrange length
hole 8 looking backwards
hole 9's a pretty and very tech hole. small hole to launch from; hole's protected by trees and sits at the edge of a steep slide
view from about halfway
hole 9's basket
hole 10's a demandingly tight flick. the trees are cut back the same way behind for yards for must what be a future hella hard pro tee
hole 11's HARD. guarded tee, no holes anywhere to speak of flick or backhand.. oy!
view from about halfway
then the hole is REALLY garded by bushes and low-hanging trees even when you're close!
and THEN there's a punishing ditch JUST behind the pin with WORSE low hanging trees to punish those who throw even slightly too far! now THIS is a hole to separate the scores!
i couldn't find the teepad for 12, even tho i could find the hole. sufficed to say, it's right behind a BIG bushy tree.
13's a light curve left followed by a huge swoop right and downhill. fun hole built for flicking
hole 13's guarded basket viewed from about the curve
some teepees used by the camp
hole 14's a fun blind shot. sky hyzer not too far
hole 14's basket
hole 15's a good long drive if you can make it, lotsa stuff in just the wrong places
16's a long open hyzer
17's another HARD hole. narrowing path on an anhyzer curve over a good distance to some low bushes and a big tree to punish the landing on an anhyzer.. if you can throw a huge S starting on a spike anhyzer you can make it over, but everything else is gonna hurt
looking down the path
through the lack of a hole at about a good drive's length, out into a short opening and then the pin
18's fairly long, starting open and then into low-hanging trees
some extra shots:
mt. morris is one of the best in wisconsin for sure.
so onto the trip down from green bay:
triangle sports area hole 1 "prepare to unload... your bag"
hole 1 viewed backwards
another downhill shot, easy to mistake for the pin in view, but it's really tucked in along the treeline at left much shorter downhill, tempting the toss between the trees.
a couple views of a nice uphill hole
another uphill flick
view of a nice downhill hole about halway, on a hump that'll ground out those low coasting shots.
a dam in kaukauna not far from grignon
ohauser is a VERY demanding course that has teenager-teepees in the woods (yay!), and traintracks close to a lot of holes.
the train goes by another hole
peck drives out over the hardest water shot, trying to tuck it inbetween some of the big trees up and at right
a random odd tree at the rest stop between dretzka hole 14 and 15
so next weekend it's back up to appleton again for the eagle open.
man, scanning all this crap's work..
