**** 30 days to claim discs I pulled out of the swampy nasty gross probably-infected-me-with-something scum pond behind the basket on hole 10 ***

Long story - I bought a couple aviars for putting practice off a dude on craigslist today and wanted to test them out so I stopped at VIRA on the way home. All was going well with my new aviar and Orion LS until hole 10. I landed the Orion off the short tees at the top of the dirt patch just before the basket pocket... no worries, sink the putt for ... more

Long story - I bought a couple aviars for putting practice off a dude on craigslist today and wanted to test them out so I stopped at VIRA on the way home. All was going well with my new aviar and Orion LS until hole 10. I landed the Orion off the short tees at the top of the dirt patch just before the basket pocket... no worries, sink the putt for bird, right? Wrong. Tink off the top of the basket and *PLOPS* square in the muck. Good thing I had a rake in my truck!

After many splashes of waste water in my face and eyes, along with 3 discs surfacing before mine , I have my Aviar. Good day!

One disc had a phone number and two did not. I will be calling the number and this post is for you other two people.

If you lost a disc in that pond reply here with the color, name, and plastic type of the disc, and if its yours I will meet you somewhere to get it back. After 30 days I will probably still have them but they might become trade bait or I might start tossing them; I feel 30 days is a fair amount of time.

Lost my Red 400s Pa2 putter in hole 14 pond today. Half way between am pad and opposite shore of the pond. Reward offered for its return. I know its unlikely due to the number of divers that keep disc but just throwing it out there.
