Buffinville Dam League

I hear all the time that the best way to get better at the game of disc golf is to not only practice but to join your local league. So that's what I did. Talking to other disc golfers around my local course (Buffinville), I found out the day & time, league gets together. Wednesdays, Rain or Shine. 5:30pm Tee-Time, 5 dollar buy - in, & there is a Birdie pot. Must put in least one dollar each week to be eligible to win. There are 4 holes that I can't remember which ones they are, that you must birdie ALL 4 holes to win the pot. If no winner, pot carrys over until the next week, so on & so forth. Usually 1 or 2 CTP prizes, how you can tell who won the CTP prize I have no idea but thats how they do things around there haha. Being one of the local kids on the course I knew least 1 or 2 people playing in the league so I wasnt to shy about jumping in. You get put into groups of 4 & play singles. But at the end of the night, when you tally up all the scores. Your given a partner, where you guys take the best score between both of y'all and put them together to get a team score. Plus there is a overall singles winner. SO if your good there's a few ways to win a couple bucks. We play 1 round of 18holes. All the "Big Boy" holes. Meaning where teeing all from the longer shots over the water such as Infamous Hole #9 and #10, #15, & # 17(from the top of the stairs). Its a great time, A great atmosphere, & only 2 complete weeks in I feel already like I have gotten better. My first week, after a 12 hr work day 7 rushing there. I sign up with a empty bag, no discs, (well not alot), & shoot a 69 (+12). Now excited to play again, with a stocked up bag, I convinced my buddys Ben & MikeV to play in league with me. My only goal was to beat a 69. I HAD A ROUGH NIGHT, Shooting OB 3 times in a row of the tee pad & finishing off with a 9 on the 3rd hole in. Last six holes I played well, paring all of them but I finished a 75 (+18). NOT WHAT I WANTED AT ALL. So now I'm just waiting for it to finally be Wednesday night again So I can hopefully shoot a round in the 60s. At the end of the year they have a overall winner for the league. My main focus is to have fun and get better while picking up new tips & meetin new people. Its just something for me to look forward to during the work week instead of trying to find someone to play a round with random days & times. I HAVE A SET DATE & TIME NOW where i will be doing nothing but playing disc golf then. JOIN YOUR LOCAL LEAGUE TODAY!
