Dan, I think more people will be trying to throw harder to reach the basket and will be shanking more shots that ever if the tree is removed. The tree looks bad with all the cuts from discs and will eventually die anyway unless we try to protect it(wrap drain tile around it)if we vote to keep it.
Don't think that I am doing this for my benifit because I can't reach the hole either way. I just don't think that tree(maybe we should give it a name) belongs in the middle of the fairway.

Done but I had to do it under a separate thread...

Can anyone tell me if I can vote by Proxy? I cannot make the meeting Monday but do want to vote. Thanks.

I came on here to post the same thing about hole #7. I noticed it was almost out of the ground when I was playing there on Sunday.

Yippee!!! Hole #6's basket is back in. How long has it been there? THANKS to whoever got it done.

Let's try to hold on to the other ones that are loose.

What about the remains from temp. #6? Should we maybe save it for some future disc golf museum? It certainly held up okay, considering the conditions. Dragon should patent that bamboo/windchime design.

Thanks Phil for taking the initiative. Also, hole 3 is loose. If you are going to be at Mt. Airy after 4, I can give some assistants. Such as, bringing a wheelbarrow, shovel, pickax, posthole digger, 5 gallons of water, one 80lb. bag of cement, 2 hammers for stripping bolts, and just about anything else you might need. Of course this message is void if I see you at leagues this evening.

Getting #6 replaced was a beaurocratic nightmare. I've had at least 10 email discussions, several phone conversations, and 2 meetings with parks personnel in the park to get this done. Finally, yesterday, the Park manager called me and told me it was finally getting done! Number 4 is supposed to have the basket assembly re-welded to the pole today. Same with #2 at Burnet Woods. I convinced the Parks to buy an extra basket so that next time some scumbag steals a basket, we won't have to wait over a year for a replacement.

Please call the Cincinnati Parks - or use the email addresses on our home page Parks Contact Info - to thank the Cincy Parks for finally doing this. Might not be a bad idea to ask them to do some preventative work and resecure all the other baskets, now that there is no emergency - or before there is another emergency.

It's a putt stealer! The inner chains now rest on the basket, which cause them to not respond properly, resulting in spit-outs. Now I know how Blakely feels.

Hole 7 is now fixed and in the ground. My drill died before I could get to hole 3. I have a pin and lock for hole 3's new sleeve. But I need to drill the pole so we can pin it. Does anyone have a burly drill (preferrably 18v or more) with at least a 1/4 in chuck so we can drill the pole? I have a 14.4 that I borrowed but even with two full batteries I was only barely able to get one drilled. If you have a drill let me know...maybe Dragon or one of you guys that lives close.
And thanks to the Mexican for helping me get the holes dug for the new sleeves.

On me?

Is there a leash law in Mt Airy forest?

ok thanks

AdamJ,

What is badly needed at Mt. Airy is someone to repair the message board next to hole #1. I think what is there is salvagable. The right door is broken off, and the left door is near-death. The Club will reimburse you for materials- just let me know what you have planned and it's expense.

Liz Ransdell has a new board for Burnet Woods that needs to be installed (I believe it needs 2 4x4's to be set in the ground, that it can be mounted to). Looking for a volunteer to dig 2 post holes and install the board! Anyone out there with a few hours to lend to the project?

One way to think about it ... a couple hours on one of these projects will have a lasting impact .... and last a lot longer than cutting weeds that grow back in a few weeks!
