Tim loses Green Acres Tag #1 Chops down Massive Tree and makes new basket

During a Disc Golf session last week. Green Acres Tim, Tom K, and Maggotx played some serious rounds at Green Acres. Maggotx was down by several strokes and Tim and Tom were tied going into the 17th hole. Tim, preparing to play at the DG World's Championship was pumped and threw a nice drive. Unfortunately Tom pulled an ACE to Tim's par and a two stroke lead to finish up and steal the #1 Tag at GA. Here are some pictures of Tom K.'s Ace....

Tom's Ace Basket...note the adverse wet conditions and Tom's Take-No-Prisoners Smirk......

Tom K's Ace throw view to Hole # 17,,,,,pretty awesome....click to enlarge and note basket in middle of the two trees...

Afterwards, Tim selected a huge White Pine tree which had been felled by high winds during the last storm and decided to create a NEW DG basket (or facsimile thereof) ....

I will keep you updated on the progress of this new AWESOME basket...

( LATE NOTE: as of Sunday night Tim got his TAG back from Tom K. BUT lost it to Don T. who stopped by to play with us on Sunday. )

Great example of "reuse, reduce, recycle"! And I wonder hew much hotter the wood from that "basket" would burn in the fireplace if Maggotx were to get another ace in it? And it is a great example of the fact that Disc Golf is as much art as it is science.

I can't wait to see that basket oompleted. This is probably how they used to play disc golf in olden times when it was invented by King Arthur in the 6th century.
