Greetings everyone! This page has become pretty stagnant in the past year, partly because the club has become so small. Anyways, we are trying to resurrect the Staunton Augusta Waynesboro Disc Golf Club (SAWDGC). We are working on creating a design to have new club bag tags made, so hopefully we will have them soon. Once we have them, I'll announce it here and be selling them for $10. Plan to get yours and battle for the #1 tag!

Courtney took 4th place in Advanced AMs (4th overall in AMs) Stan took 2nd place in Advanced Masters (14th overall in AMs) Cliff took 3rd place in Advanced Masters (18th overall in AMs) Todd took 4th place in Advanced Masters (30th overall in AMs) We don't know if Paul plans on playing in any of the other BRAWL events, but he does currently live in Lynchburg and all the BRAWL locations are close-by. The next event in the series will be held on the 17th. Check out the flyer in the previous blog post, "Who's BRAWLin This Winter", for more details and a full schedule of events. December brings many people's favorite time of year. Of course there is Christmas, but a close second to Christmas is the BRAWL. If you haven't heard of it before, it is a series of events during the winter throughout the Blue Ridge area; hence the BRAWL (Blue Ridge Area Winter League).
This year the league will be starting the first Saturday in December. Check out the below flyer for more info on the whens, wheres, and whats. 11th Annual Timber Ridge Open

The course is on a working cattle farm. Please wear appropriate footwear and bring extra towels. Ten club members showed up to fight for the Club Championship title on a wet and rainy day. Could Rene continue his reign or would up and coming star, Kyle Wilson, send Rene into retirement? After the first round, Rene found himself in the lead, but only by one over Kyle and Todd. Yep, you read that right... Todd Ashworth tied with Kyle one shot behind Rene. I had the pleasure of watching Todd's stellar round, it was a sight to see. Great round Todd!
Going into the 2nd and Final round Rene, Kyle, Todd, and Mike earned their spot on the lead card. Courtney, Stan, and Roy lurked in the shadows on the chase card in hopes to make their move on that top card. David, Cliff, and Steve found themselves on the last card but not trailing my much. All of the competitors continued their attack throughout the second round of soggy fun. When the damp dust settled, Rene held onto his "Champ" title with a win by 5 shots over second place finisher, Kyle Wilson. Mike Wilson and Courtney Biel shot solid rounds to finish 3rd and 4th respectively while Todd fell back to 5th. Check out the full results below. Although Stan and Cliff didn't find finish in the top five, they did win some CTP's. Stan won two CTP's (one each round) and Cliff won one in the first round. Rene picked up a CTP as well during the second round. Thank you to everyone that came out to play despite the rainy weather. I also want to thank Lee Houser for donating a bunch of discs and mini to use in a players pack that all participants received. Chris Faunce donated some SAW stamped merchandise for players to pick through and prizes for 1st place and last place. And the last shout out goes to Mike Wilson for providing lunch for everyone, Steve Blackmer for bringing drinks, and for Kyle Wilson's girlfriend that delivered the lunch. The 2016 SAW Disc Golf Club Championship is scheduled for this Saturday, October 8th. For those of you joining, please be there by 9:45AM so that we get organized and go over a couple things before starting the 1st round at 10AM. Following the first round, lunch from Subway is graciously being provided by Mike Wilson. The lunch break will be long enough for us to enjoy our food, hopefully we can hold it to 30ish minutes before heading out to the 2nd round. This event is free for all club members and only $10 for non-members. There will be several CTP prizes up for grabs along with the coveted "Champ" status that comes along with winning the event. Will the current champ, Rene DeVito, keep his reign? Or will he be dethroned by the mighty peasants. The below schedule is our best guess as to the timing of things. Hopefully the rounds take closer to 2 hours, but I show 2.5 hours for each on the schedule just in case. To help reduce the time, we will break up into groups of 3-4. Saturday Schedule:
Each round will have a different combination of mixed layouts. Here they are so that you can start preparing now! These are still subject to change but probably won't. Yesterday was the last point series round. Rene had enough of a point lead that he didn't feel the need to show up; he must be saving himself up for the Club Championship tourney this Saturday. Cliff grabbed his first point series win Sunday with a one shot lead over Courtney. Roy put together a good round as well and finished 3rd. Rene destroyed the rest of the club by winning all 14 tag league rounds that he showed up for which averaged himself 11.2 points per round played for a total of 157 points to become the Tag League Point Series Champ. Roy wins the participation award by playing in the most number of Tag League events at 27. Although Roy played twice as many rounds as Rene, Roy was still almost 50 points shy of taking the League Champ status. Check out below to see where you finished.

If you haven't already, mark your calendars! The Club Championship will be held on Saturday, October 8th starting at 10AM. It will consist of 2 rounds, both will be different mixed round layouts (to be determined by current club champion, Rene DeVito). The championship is free to current club members and $10 for non-members. We plan to have some sort of lunch in between rounds but have yet to work out the details. If you or someone you know would be able to coordinate lunch, please let me know
