Yesterday was quite the day for competition in the Truffin household. In addition to the Bucyrus Bratfest, Sherry and I each were participating in competitive sporting events. [NOTE: I didn't actually see any of the Bratwurst Festival events this year. Sherry and Wade report that it was up to its usual fun. I DID get …

Sssssweeeep!
I haven’t been reporting much on our weekly doubles, but this week was special. Not only did my doubles team take first place for the week, but… I took the CTP on hole 9-2-10 for a free Jolly’s Rootbeer Float. I took the CTP on hole 3 for $$$ I shot an ACE on hole …
Glen07 Day 6: The Music in our Hearts
The morning workshop session, our last, was a bit more open ended than previous days since we only had two or three stories to critique. We had more room for general discussion about various topics. Two of our members had already departed campus, which served to remind us that the week was coming to a …
Glen07 Day 3: Patty and the Big Elephant
The morning came early and my comments on stories came late today. For some reason, I had some serious trouble coming up with comments on the stories we workshopped today. In ironical fashion, for some reasons the commments I did make caused Moira to ask follow up questions so I ended up talking alot. Today …
Vienna Park Open
Subtitle: What did I do to cheese off the Disc Golf Gods? I last played at Vienna Park in Temperance, MI when the Morefields visited us shortly after we moved to Tiffin. Returning, I appreciate it as a nice, little course, but I also understand why I haven’t made the effort to go back: way …
Discraft-Hoover Westside Challenge
I spent yesterday walking long arduous distances between holes at a C-tier tourney held on a temporary course held on the west side of the Hoover Resovoir in columbus. The east side of the Hoover Resovoir houses the National Tour stop known around here simply as “The Hambrick.” We had a beautfiul day for golfing: …
Not Best Enough
Tonight was the first night of the doubles league at Hedges-Boyer. It was a beautiful night, and there was a great turnout. I got paired up with a young highschool student, and we got off to a great start shooting 3 deuces. On our first hole–which had a cash CTP contest running on it–I put …
The International Disc Golf Center
I arrived at the International Disc Golf Center mid-morning on Monday. I was greeted by Lorrie, I believe, when I walked into the pine panelled walls of the IDGC and stood facing the stone and metal sculpture of a disc golfer. After showing me the features of the IDGC she got me some bug repellent …
NOLA throws plastic (other than beads)
After Sherry got up, got ready, I walked her to Canal St. I was mocked at several points for doing so since the path to Canal St. that looked so deserted and potentially dangerous for a lone, small woman carrying a briefcase the night before was now a somewhat busy, safe looking area bustling with …
Stephens County Pro Am VI
I guess it was way back in Ought One, when we were living in Toccoa, GA, that I was introduced to disc golf by Ken Morefield. A gent named John Nisewonder had convinced the local recreation department to install a course at the Rose Lane park in Toccoa. About a month after playing my first …
