It's official -- we're moving to Augusta, GA!

Well, it's official. Killer B Disc Golf is moving to Augusta, GA in mid-September!

We signed our lease for 863 Broad St yesterday. We're downtown near the James Brown statue, down the street from Nacho Mama's and around the corner from Augusta Common Park.

Are you ready to catch the buzzzz, Augusta?

Right in the middle
We're pretty close to all the courses in the Augusta area and I bet a bunch more I haven't discovered yet:

• Hippodrome - 2.5 miles
• Lake Olmsted - 3 miles
• Riverview - 3 miles
• Pendleton-King Park - 4 miles
• Patriots Park - 20 miles
• Wildwood Park (IDGC) - 25 miles

We're excited about getting involved in the GA/SC disc golf scene and look forward to meeting everyone. Prepare to touch lots of plastic in a few months!

Busy as a Killer B
It's going to be a busy next month and a half for me. Between getting the house ready to sell, packing, and cleaning, I'll be blogging at AM Worlds in Rochester, NY at the end of July and then Pro Worlds in Santa Cruz, CA the following week. After that, it's back to MA for a few weeks and then more blogging at the Vibram Open NT down the road in Leicester, MA. Once that's done after Labor Day, it'll be the final pack up and drive down to Augusta (after a final farewell tournament somebody's going to throw for us, right, hint hint?!)

Meanwhile, Killer B #2 Marcy will be getting the Augusta shop ready and continuing to spread the buzzz around town and at various leagues and events. Keep an eye out for her! Are there any handy disc golf locals who can help paint and build shelves? Let me know (email).

As for our MA store, it'll stay open until at least Labor Day, but will be closed while I'm away those two weeks for Worlds. So, don't procrastinate! Come get some new plastic while you can!

Killer B helps out at Ultimate Frisbee Camp

We recently received this thank you note from Donnie Phillips. Happy to help, Donnie!

"I like to give a shout out of thanks to the folks at Killer B Disc Golf for the loaner basket which magically appeared at my 8th Annual Ultimate Frisbee Camp. It was great to be able to show the young kids what else they can do when not throwing ultimate discs!"

Registration opens today for Flatrock Blueberry Jam

Registration for the Flatrock Blueberry Jam on Aug. 6 is now open.

Sean and Helen Franchi own a great course on their property in western MA and always run a very fun tournament. What other course do you know of that has a huge gong on it?!

Many if not all of the funky homemade baskets have been replaced with Innova Sportscatchers over the past year thanks to local players and sponsors (like Killer B Disc Golf!)

Flatrock members have already had a week to sign up, so don't miss yours chance. This tournament is a NEFA points series event and part of the Rt 2 Roadshow series.

Two Disc Dilemma results

Congrats to winners Daniel Marcus (Pro), Donnie Phillips (AM1), John Williams (AM2), and Jonny Meadows (Rec)!

Daniel shot the hot round of the day with a 49! Lots of good scores out there and many personal bests.

More results and pix later.

It's Two Disc Dilemma Sunday!

I'm excited to see how my idea for a two-disc-only tournament goes over tomorrow. There are several people signed up who played in our earlier "regular" tournament in April, so it'll be fun to compare scores.

Already this week several guys have shot or tied personal bests at Devens using only two discs during practice rounds -- Luke, Alex G, Mike M, Marc D, Donnie. Keep it simple, stupid.

Hopefully people will come out of this tournament realizing that they do not need every disc under the sun and that they just need to learn how to throw the ones they have. Not a great marketing pitch for a guy who sells plastic for a living, but I think it's worth saying.

I'm also excited because this is my first tournament since playing in a bitter cold Team Challenge in January. That day it was about 3 degrees; tomorrow should be a little bit warmer at 87 degrees! It's been way too long and I miss the camaraderie and the competition. I can't wait and look forward to a fun day on the course. Hill Yeah!

PS. It's no dilemma for me. I'm using an Aviar and a Squall.
