New Fade bags, Gateway putters, and Discraft are in!

The Hive has become much more colorful today. Mmmm...

The Road Rally loved us!

Yesterday's road rally disc golf challenge was great! Forty teams arrived at Enterprise Mill in their fancy sports cars, luxury cars, and trucks and played 5 holes of disc golf that we had set up in the courtyard and small field next to the building.

The winner of the event won a mock Green Jacket signed by all teams and Nate Doss and Valarie Jenkins.

 

One member of each team played the course and they zipped through quickly. Groups of two went out with a scorekeeper (Nate, Val, OldMan, and Taylor) while Mom Wallis tallied up scores at the end. I floated around taking photos, explaining the rules, and giving quick demos. Just one contestant recorded a deuce on the "special bonus" hole 5. His team received 70 extra points toward their overall race total.

Most people had never heard of disc golf before and several said that this challenge had been the funnest one yet!

Thank you Jason Allind at the PDGA for referring us to the Augusta Convention and Visitors Bureau to help with the event and for lending us discs, flags, and PDGA tent.

Today is our two-week anniversary and we've already put on two events. Pretty cool! Augusta rocks!

Disc golf challenge today - watch us on the Internet!

Today we are helping with the Fireball Run. We've set up a 5 hole disc golf course around Enterprise Mill for the competitor's official challenge of the day. Nate Doss, Valarie Jenkins, and Mom and Old Man Wallis are helping out too. It's going to be a fun day!

They are supposed to be broadcasting it live on the Internet, so tune in around noon and catch a glimpse of the B in GA!

The Hive was buzzzzin' last night

Considering the short notice, we had a great turnout last night for the Meet & Greet with Val Jenkins and Nate Doss last night. Fifteen golfers showed up for one-on-one instruction and conversation with the two World champs. Some of the kids really seemed to be starstruck and it was awesome to see.

One local brought in a videotape of a 15 year old Val in a putting contest many years ago. That was pretty funny to see.

Thanks to everyone who came down and thanks Val and Nate for kicking off our first Meet & Greet series!

More photos later! We are off to the road rally disc golf challenge next! Busy, busy, busy.

Tonight is the night! Meet Val and Nate!

Tonight is the night! Don't forget to come meet Val Jenkins and Nate Doss at the store at 7 PM.

Both Val and Nate kicked butt at this weekend's PDGA Championships. Val took home first and Nate came in a close second. Nice!

Be sure to bring your camera and questions about what it's like being one of the best disc golfers on the planet!

Come meet World Champs Val & Nate next Monday!

We are happy to announce the Killer B Meet & Greet series featuring the best of the best in disc golf.

Since we don't mess around here at the Hive, we are starting it off with not one, but two World Champions - Valarie Jenkins and Nate Doss! So come down to the store next Monday, Sept. 26 at 7:00 PM for our first Meet & Greet!

Val and Nate will be signing autographs, taking pictures, and chatting disc golf until 8:00. They'll also be giving a brief talk about life on the road and answer any questions you may have.

Share this blog with your friends and let's give Val and Nate a great Augusta welcome!
