WC GLOW 2013-2014

More Glow?

While the winter glow league is over, I thought that I would pose the question.....who wants to continue?
I will be unable to attend this week as I have parent conferences on Wednesday, but if there are some of you who are interested, I would encourage you to continue.
While I am on the subject, is there interest in a spring/summer glow league? I may or may not be able to facilitate it but would be happy to help one or two of you out if you wanted to get into managing the league. Send me a message if you are interested....we can go from there.

CTPS will include a few club stamped discs(Glow Nuke, Glow Comet, Glow Buzzz, and D-Magnet), as well as a few other discs that I have collected or have ordered recently for the final night.
*Ace pool available for those who have previously attended a league night this season.
More discussion on food on Wednesday.
Please try to arrive early, If we can start a little early (say around 6:45) it would be a HUGE help.
Please post on the home page if you are coming on Wednesday. It will help insure that everyone is accounted for.
Lastly, 6 state berths will be awarded. There are several of you who are in the running. Please don't miss out on a chance to earn your ticket to States.
Send me a message if you have any questions. I am hoping to be there by about 6pm to set up.

Glow Final 03.12

Looks like a large majority of you are interested in playing 27....so let's plan on that. Please try to get there early on Wednesday. Personally, I would like to start as early as possible as we are throwing in another 9. If we could start somewhere between 630/645 it would help us all in facilitating a smooth round.
More formal post to follow later this afternoon with specific details. One heads up, due to the large amount of CTPs planned, please expect the cost of all-in being $15(dependent on participation, I am planning 9-10 CTPs at this time).

Scott Sprow   March 5, 2014 at 7:24pm

GLOW 03.05

Looks like another cold night for us....what's new? However, it does appear that there is a warmup coming(that being in relative terms to what we've had so far). Predictions for high 20s, mid 30s, and temps even approaching 40 within the next week.
Hopefully tees are clear, but I will try to get there by 6 to check them out. Details to be presented tonight regarding next week's finale. A current plan includes 3 rounds of 9 holes, with a change of partner each round. Discussion is ... more

Lastly, still have some WC stamped discs left. Glow Comet, Glow Nuke, Glow Buzzz, as well as D-Magnet. Great prices bring a little extra cash. $10 all in tonight with 3 CTPs offered.

GLOW 02.26

Looking like it will be cold for the final February round. Hope you did not pack away all those extra layers just yet....you will need them.
Planning to offer 3 CTPs yet again this week, unless I hear you are getting tired of them. May use merchandise for one of them.
See you Wednesday at Bandemer.

Scott Sprow   February 21, 2014 at 12:05am

Glow 02.19 Recap

Thank you one and all for coming out last night. Great temps, fewer layers, and good conditions. Some good golf played last night. 17 players in all, biggest turnout of the season I think. I will get players added and scores posted tonight. Still have plenty of league stamped discs available if you did not get yours last night. Send me a message if interested.

Scott Sprow   February 19, 2014 at 9:44pm

Glow 02.19

Warmer temps, melting snow.....spring is getting closer. While there is still some snow that we are likely to get, we will take it for now. See you this evening. As usual, I will try to get there a bit early to look over the tee pads.
Also have club stamped discs for sale. Taking requests if you have something particular in mind (color, or stamp color).

Scott Sprow   February 15, 2014 at 9:13am

Club Stamped Discs

The order of club stamped discs was picked up today. Discs look pretty nice. I posted a few pictures in the album area. Variety of colors on the non glow, and a variety of foils on all discs. I will have them with me next week for league. if you are interested bring some extra cash. 10 available in each: Glow Buzzz, Glow Comet, Glow Nuke, D-Magnet, Z-Buzzz.

Scott Sprow   February 12, 2014 at 9:29pm

GLOW 02.12

Glow tonight at Bandy. Tee pads looking hit and miss on some holes. If I can get out early, I will try to get a shovel and ice melt on those that need it. Layout to be determined but as always, we can discuss as a group.
Club disc order should be ready sometime this week. Have 50 discs ordered, 5 different molds: Z-Buzz, D-Magnets, and Glow Nuke/Buzzz/Comet. All feature a club stamp from Discraft. I will try to post the image on the club page. Please see me if you are interested in buying a disc....very reasonable price.
CTPs offered tonight. $10 all in.
See you this evening.

Scott Sprow   February 5, 2014 at 10:35pm

Snow? What snow?

We will not be stopped by a little white fluffy stuff on the ground.
See you this evening for the 7pm tee off. I will try to get out and shovel some of the pads before the round. Have the shovel and some ice melt I can bring.
Also have MDGO exclusive Glow Zone's available for $20. I have 6 or 7 left for sale and will bring them this evening.
See ya'll soon.

Change in Venue JAN 29

Due to colder temps and probability of wind, a change in venue has been thrown out there. Tonight's round will be played at BANDY, NOT MBD. Seems like a lot of our regulars we interested in the switch....thank you Brooke for getting the ball rolling!

Please make the change on the home screen...this will help determine who has seen the message as well as confirm your attendance. I started the group on the main page. And please help me out, if you have numbers for the regular players, please shoot them a text or a scene message. I will try to do the same. See you tonight!

JAN 8 Glow Recap

Well, lots of snow brings on the aces. 2 Aces recorded last night in well over a foot of snow. Scott Sprow Aces hole 2 while Foz Miller answers on Hole 4. Due to excess snow, 2 rounds of Reds were played last evening. Brian Crouch and Brooke Plantz take home the win at -14 with Miller/Reslock and Sprow/Ross tying for second at -12. Back at it next week. Checked the schedule and it looks like we are at BANDY next week. I will get scores entered this evening when I get home. Fun round. See everyone next week.

Scott Sprow   January 2, 2014 at 10:34am

Jan 1 Glow

Good way to start off 2014 by playing some glow at MBD tonight. Thank you to those of you who were able to make it out. It was cold enough we should earn double points in DGLA but will need to confirm that with the DGLA admin. Have a great week and we hope to see you out next Wednesday evening for the next round.

Scott Sprow   December 27, 2013 at 11:58pm

Jan 1 2014 Glow is on!

Reminder to all, WC Glow is holding league round next Wed. Jan 1.....we are playing at MBD and starting at 7pm.

Glow 12.26 Recap

Good night for golf in the city of Ann Arbor. Thank you to everyone who came out this evening to play. I appreciate your attendance and hope that you had a good time. Solid and close scoring this evening. Brooke takes home 1st place shooting -11. Solid scoring for the rest of the field, who were separated by only 4 strokes. CTPs went to Daryl Ballios, Jason Jopps, and Ben Ross. We return to MBD for the first round of 2014 next Wednesday on New Years Evening. Please come out and start 2014 off on the right foot with a glow round. 7pm start time.

Scott Sprow   December 27, 2013 at 12:29am

Glow 12.26

Reminder that we are starting at 6 tonight. I know it is an earlier start but based on our discussion last week, it seemed as this is when everyone wanted to start. I will get there as soon as I can tonight. Daddy daycare until my wife gets home. I have LEDs if any of you need them. Fresh snow makes finding plain glow discs really tough. See ya'll soon.

Scott Sprow   December 19, 2013 at 10:01am

Glow recap

What a night....great round of DISCGOLF at a private course tonight at BRATS. Thank you to the Calhoun's for hosting WC Glow tonight for our round. Floyd Hampp and Brooke Plantz took home hot score with -10. Ben Calhoun was one shot back, and Ron Howard and Scotty Reslock took home 3rd. Thank you to Jay B and the Jackson crew for making the trek tonight. Next week we will NOT have our usual Wed night league as it falls on Christmas. However, based on popular request, we WILL play Thursday evening. Look at the home page for details.

Scott Sprow   December 18, 2013 at 6:00pm

Glow tonight @ BRATS

We are playing a private course this evening, a little gem we call BRATS. The Calhoun family has spent countless hours creating their own little playground in their backyard. We need to be quiet and courteous of the neighbors. Tee time is 7pm. Send me a message if you are cutting it close. As always, CTPs will be offered so bring a few extra bucks. LEDs will be available from multiple people in the event that you need them. GLOW discs WILL NOT work in this snow, so please take the time to plan ahead for tonight. See you all later.

Scott Sprow   December 18, 2013 at 7:59am

New Limited Edition Disc offer

L.E. (limited edition) ESP Glow Zones available for just $20. I need to submit my order at the end of December. Order pick up on Feb. 1st. I know this is short notice, but if you are interested please let me know. Pre-paid only please. Please let me know if you have questions.

Scott Sprow   December 16, 2013 at 7:14am

Glow 12.18: BRATS

We got the official word today, we were given permission to play BRATS for this week's round. We need to keep in mind that the Calhoun's have neighbors and we can not be loud and disruptive. The course borders their property and I am sure that they do not care to have a lot of disruption. See you all Wednesday night for our round. Have a good few days. Any questions please send me a message.

Scott Sprow   December 12, 2013 at 10:42am

Lozowsky & Jopps strike again

Jeff Lozowsky and Jason Jopps both strike tonight with Aces to our first trip to Waterworks. Jeff cashed in early on his second hole, and Jason smashed chains on his 5th hole. Despite cold temps, it seemed as everyone had a good time. Jopps also takes 2 CTPs, and the other going to Lozowsky.

Thank you to all that continue to come out to play. I hope that you are enjoying your rounds. Special shout out to our Jackson crew who come in every week for the round. I appreciate your support. if ther ... more

Keep your eyes open for a formal post on location for next week. Need to confirm with the owners of a private course before I can say for certain when we are heading off to next week.

Scott Sprow   December 11, 2013 at 9:52pm

Glow in the cold!

Dress warm, it is going to be a little chilly. Glow at Waterworks tonight at 7pm. There is some snow on the ground, making the locating of glow discs more challenging. Time to get those LEDs on your discs gang. I will have some available tonight, Foz has some as well. I will try to get there by 6:30 at the latest. Chance of double points is looking good for DGLA points. A reminder, WC Glow does not currently offer double points for 15 degrees or less.

Scott Sprow   December 8, 2013 at 11:33pm

Glow for 12.11: Waterworks park

By popular request, we are going to move this week's round to Waterworks park in Ypsi. This was one of the courses that was being considered at the beginning of the year to use for our league. Much like Bandy, it is a 9 hole course which features three different sets of tees. We will keep the same start time of 7pm. Send me a message if you have any questions. If not, I will see you all on Wednesday evening.

Scott Sprow   December 5, 2013 at 9:30am

Glow 12.04 recap

Great night for golf! Warm temps in December for Michigan. Good night for scoring as three teams tied at -10 from Blue & Red tees.. A few newer faces tonight, we were glad you came out to join us. CTPs taken home by Brett Russell, Ben Ross, and Scott Sprow. Highlight of the night goes to Brooke Plantz for taking a birdie on 8 Blue. We are back at it next week. Keep your eyes open for a post about course location. Right now it is either Waterworks or Bandy...if you have a preference please send me a message. If I don't hear anything, I will make the call by Saturday afternoon.

Scott Sprow   December 4, 2013 at 7:40pm

Glow for 12.04

Free pre-round CTP to be conducted just before we start the round tonight.

Scott Sprow   November 28, 2013 at 9:31am

Twice as nice

It was a night to remember, that is for sure. League newbie Scotty Reslock and Brett Russell teamed up to take first place. Both Scott Sprow(#4) and Jeff Lozowsky(#6) recorded aces. Ben Ross takes home CTPs on hole 3 and 7, while Sprow takes home CTP on #14. Ace pool sits at $39. We return to Bandy next week. Looking to play another course soon. More discussion to take place next week. Looking for feedback on where you want to play. As always, please let me know if you have questions or suggestions on how we can make it a good experience for all.
Have a great Thanksgiving.

First week of GLOW

Hoping to see many of you out on Wednesday night for the first GLOW round. 7pm at Bandy. Have some new Z BUZZZ GT discs for sale: $20/ea. Five colors available: orange, pink, purple, white, and smoke.

Tees will depend on what is available. Course is still looking a little rough due to some storms from a few weeks back-although some of the major issues have been addressed (thank you Parks & Recreation). A few tees not super playable yet but we will see what cleanup takes place this week.
