Mt. Emily Blues Fest: Tourney Recap

Thanks to all of those folks who participated in this past weekend's tournament. The setting on Mt. Emily was great - the connection to the blues festival made the event a great all around way to spend a night and day. The tourney was a random draw doubles (by division). 18 holes were set up in and around the deep wooded areas of Mt. Emily just outside of La Grande, OR. There were about 40 players in all. Ashley Walker and Elizabeth Shaw took home the gold for the women's division, Derek Irwin and David Shaw took the gold for masters, and Christopher Jennings and Alex Watson took the win for Men's. Thanks everyone for playing and continuing to support the growth of Disc Golf in La Grande.

Trent Bray had some fun with his lighted disc at night and have posted some cool pics , as well as a very stoic promo for DiscInfinity - (Trent made me mention that the set of chains weighs 70 lbs. :)

North Bonneville Disc Golf Association: DISC TOURNAMENT

2009 Tournament: July 12th, 2009

The 2^nd Annual North Bonneville Disc Golf Tournament will be held on Sunday, July 12, 2009. We’ll have great t-shirts for all competitors, free soft drinks and water on the course and some of the coolest trophies in the disc golfing world.

The tournament is a low-key, fun and friendly event for disc golfers of all abilities. There are a few people who will be looking to lower the course record but most of the golfers will be there to enjoy the great golf course

We’ve moved a few of the holes around since last year to make it more interesting; the trees, blackberry brambles and the ever present Columbia Gorge wind are still here to make the course a challenge to any disc golfer.

And this year, in addition to the delicious post-tournament barbeque provided by our sponsor A&J Market, we’ll have a Walking Man beer garden! It doesn’t get much better than that.

For more information about the tournament see our Events page.

Phillip's Park - Wedding Tournament

This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending a good friends wedding outside of Haines and Baker City in Oregon. This private park, with camping for well over 100 people, ponds, creeks, beautiful meadow, and tree scape was only $150 a day so we opted to set up a tournament for the Sunday following the rock star wedding.

A quick 9 hole course was created. A very technical course (6 discs were lost to the pond on hole 1). There were about 30 players ranging in all experiences that were participating in the event. I had taken a few great pics via cell phone but cannot get them uploaded. Where have you played recently?
