Cousins ace days apart

It's good to be a Hill at league lately. Branden got an ace at Friday league and cousin Austin hit one last night at Tuesday league. It was his first throw of the night! Nice job, guys!

Thanks for the Worlds love!

Well, it's back to reality today. Thanks for all the support and encouraging words while I was at Worlds, everyone! It really was great reading your comments every night and they kept me going.

Let's hear it for Mr. Hippodrome himself, Pete May, who won his 4th World title in Legends. Local wonder boy Aaron Doyle kicked butt in Advanced and finished tied for 9th! I didn't do too shabby either finishing tied for 10th in Advanced Masters. Yeah boys!


Don't forget about our Singles & Skins Sizzler this coming Saturday. It's no Worlds, but it'll be fun!


In the news, sorta.

Killer B makes the news in Kansas! Well I'm in the background, anyway.

Killer B is at Worlds. Are you?

Killer B photo bomb!
If you have headed to Amateur Worlds in Emporia, KS this week, keep an eye out for me and say hey. I'll be the guy in the Killer B shirt playing Advanced Masters.

  • See how everyone is doing here

Saturday
We arrived in Emporia Saturday afternoon. After checking in to our hotel, we headed over to Jones Park to scout it out and stretch out our arms. The place was packed and we jumped in on Jones East and started throwing.

With a few holes to go, Discraft pro Ron Convers Jr met up with us and showed us around the rest of East and then all of Jones West. It was great having him show us the best routes on every hole. He really paid special attention to our 16 yr old wonder boy, Aaron, and gave him a lot of encouragement and more advanced tips than he did to us old farts!

"Use a putter on this one," Ron said.
"I can't reach that with a putter!" I replied.
"I was talking to Aaron."

Ron Convers Jr showed us around Jones East and West

Sunday
Sunday we had another great day of practice rounds. We started early with a round at Peter Pan, officially signed in and got our great players pack at the Granada Theater, watched some of the field events, and then played a bomber practice round on Country Club ball golf course.

Hole 3 was especially nice because I aced it! 350 ft downhill. Wow!

Now it is time for rest, Ibuprofen, and icing down the ol' arm!

Let Manchild Matt caddy for you!

Who can help a disc golfer get to the Jr Olympics? Local Matthew "Manchild" Lynn has qualified to compete in the AAU Jr Olympics in shot put and discus at the end of July in Detroit.

Matt needs some help with travel expenses and is willing to caddy and fetch for you all this month for donations! Matt will be at the Hippodrome this weekend offering his services and teaching you about what he does!

He will caddy 1 hole for $5 or 3 holes for $10. He will even fetch your discs on the driving range for $5/person for up to ten throws! He is also available during the week -- just reserve a time with him for a full round!

Let's pitch in and help the SC State and Regional Champ get to the Olympics! USA! USA!
