Course is set.

We played it at the last IL of 2017/18.

12 holes, geared towards winter play.

Hole 1 is a little downhill throw. Had several players question the distance of this hole. Then I saw them throw it, and we are good with the distance.

Hole 2 is the first PAR 4 on the course. A lovely elevated tee and a dreamy pin placement on the other side of the road. Road will be IB. The gully is wonderful and the woods on the sides coming into the green are perfect.

Hole 3 is an Winter American PAR 3. It's a big toss, and it's uphill. Makes for the need of a big pull. Saw some fantastic 2s. Killer plateau green.

Hole 4 is from the original Larrimac IL course; Hole 1. A big toss, but a very elevated tee helps us all get our discs down to the green. A wonderful HUGE lefty flick it there.

Hole 5 was supposed to be a gap-filler, but it plays well. A nice uphill throw, and nice uphill throws are few. Road is IB.

(All roads are IB. The only time you'll be given an added stroke is if you leave Larrimac. Land on the highway for instance. Think it'll only happen on 1 and maybe 2. Don't think it'll happen, but you have proven me wrong before.)

Hole 6 is an original Larrimac hole. Beautiful treed green. Elevated tee. Saw a couple of discs enter the green area through precarious routes. Fun stuff.

Hole 7 is a tricky uphiller. Protected really well by a HUGE spruce. A couple of putts where made from the base.

Hole 8 is our shot to infinity. No more than 200' away, there is a serious chance of flying off into the abyss and visit the fairway of 9.

Hole 9 is our second PAR 4 of the day. A big pull around the hill is needed. The creek helps mark the way. There's a great cart path toboggan run on this hole.

Hole 10 is the BEST WAY back up the mountain so we are using it. Lovely mound green. Lots of ways to not stick.

Hole 11 will test the skippiness of the day, though Super thinks the BIG HYZER is there. I'm going under the branches.

Hole 12 takes us back the parking lot. Lovely mini-hill green. Roads and parking lot are IB.

12 holes.

Par 38.

6 mullies.

0 partners.

You will need ribbons.

I have a theory that the Sunday snow, and then the quick freeze, have fixed the slippery walking conditions that we experienced on Saturday. So footwear is still up in the air. Bring what you got and make a morning decision.

We will make sure all the teepads are in working order; 3 is a good example of a destroyed pad. This might mean a slight alteration to the Tee placement (move forward or to the left).

[bbp]

Getting some comments regarding OB, or the lack of it.

"...the road on, i think hole 2, is a great place OB..." "Noooo, the road out of bounds is great on 2..." "...even the parking lot on 12 is not going to be OB?"*

All great concerns and comments. In fact, hole 2 was designed to have the road OB mess with you - lay-up or go for it - and hole 12 has a lovely feature of flying past and getting punished.

But as we saw out there last Saturday, the "OB road" is wonky to define. Where does road start and plow hill end? Does my ribbon count as part of my disc, so it's still IB? I'm just going to run up there and see if I should mullie...I'll be right back.

So instead of making cardmates have to make decisions that might ruin the vibe of ICE BOWL, we are playing Play Where It Lies Disc Golf** on Ice Bowl Saturday.




* no one actually wrote these, or verbally relayed them to me, but I know that's what you're thinking

** Play Where It Lies unless it's on the highway, cause that's silly, stupid and dangerous

I'm a big fan of the PWILDG rule. Especially on this layout.

What's Lone Pine Disc Golf? Besides an unattended Facebook page.

I'm going to assume this is a Chris and Steph thing. Would like to know more.

What would it take for me to be wearing a sweatshirt at the Ice Bowl?

[Hasty]

[bbp]

I don't want no "sneak peak"! I want "before it's in the store"!

[disco rico]

Anybody object to me sending my annual ICE BOWL text to TSN 1200 on Friday morning ?

Hope they read it for a 3rd year in a row !

For membership fees, is it $20 for the year than $20 in dues?

to set the record straight on membership costs:

the ODGC has two types of membership: Lifetime for $120, or annual for $20

additionally, there are $20 annual dues. For families, annual dues are
capped at $40, so for 3 or more people, there is a benefit.

so, paying your way year by year, would be $40 payments.

If you go the lifetime route, it's $140 the first year, $20 each subsequent year
to maintain active member status.

These proceeds are used essentially to provide disc golf to the Ottawa area, there are maintenance costs for operating Kanata and Camp Fortune. The club also uses its funds to support events and disc golf related activities for the community and/or club members. Also, your ODGC membership also provides you with ODSA membership which provides liability insurance for you for tournaments, and for ODSA series events, is a registration requirement.
