The Devens Hawks Hosts Team Webster Tomorrow
Team Webster is back at Devens tomorrow (Saturday 3/29) looking for a little redemption. Last month Team Devens beat those Fish & Game guys pretty handily so I know they are hungry. Now its the Hawks turn to lay the smack down!
Good luck to the good guys. Take down the win and end the season on a high note!
Here is a preview of Marc Duci finishing Aaron Kaczowka off.. The look on Aarons face is priceless.
For those casual players. The Hill will be crowded but playable.

Wednesday League - Week 3 Results and Standings
NEXT WEEK START TIME IS 4:45pm - For the first 72 players to register in person.
Super windy out there last night, holy cow! The scores were about 3 strokes higher on average (though some, like mine, were much worse than usual). Joe DeCarolis slammed hole 15 with a nice skip ace and earned the $99 ace pot. Nice shot, Joe!
My most sincere apologies to the C Pool guys. I completely neglected to announce winners of this pool and thus no one stayed around for the payout. Steve, Ric & Bill M are all owed $ and I have it set aside for next week. Again, sorry!

Hill Yeah Spring Classic 2 is Coming Up Fast!
Wow, our first big tournament of 2014 is just two weeks away!All of the pieces are falling into place and I hope we get some great weather and some low scores.
We will have CTP's on EVERY hole including some pretty valuable and unique stuff. A Dynamic Discs Commander bag is up for grabs for all Hole Sponsors, a 2014 membership to Maple Hill and a Midnight Buzzz (only 1,000 made!) are both up for grabs for all players. We also have a ton of other discs, some hats and some
t-shirts available to specific divisions.
For those of you on the wait list, unfortunately for you there has been no movement whatsoever since online reg sold out. Of course, there is usually some action shortly before the event and if there is any movement I will certainly let you know if you are able to get in.
Here are all of the tournament details.
Come on out for some practice at our Wednesday league.
I can't wait to see you all there!

Wednesday Weekly League #2
NEXT WEEK START TIME IS 4:30pm
What a crazy night at league. Despite the cool weather, periods of sleet and an extremely early start time we nearly SOLD OUT! We had 68 players join us and we were just 4 people shy of a full house. Absolutely incredible. We had some issues with daylight so we will stay with a 4:30 start next week. I really hadn't planned on having every hole occupied with 4somes on all but 4 holes and that slowed it down a little.
Couple new things going forward:
League has to be a first come first served. This includes only you showing up in person and signing in. If there is a potential sell out I don't think I can work with text/phone check ins. If you wanna play than you best just get there before 71 other people do. Once we sell 72 spots you are able to play The General for fun. Please also get to your starting hole by the specified time. Thank you all for your cooperation!
We have already sold 70 tags and have had 78 unique players so far. Average scores are WAY high but that's due to all of the newer players and some less than perfect playing conditions. We will whittle that average down soon.

Week One of League is in the Books!
NEXT WEEK START TIME IS 4:30pm
What a way to start the 2014 season off. Crap weather but some really great spirit out there and a grand total of 50 warriors played. 46 of which bought tags along with another 3 who bought tags but could not play.
Here's a little history lesson, Last year we started the league with a beautiful afternoon and had 40 people come out, the year before we had 27 people on the first day. I'd say we are growing at a good pace and I wouldn't be surprised to have a few sellouts this year. Hope to see you out there next week and hope I will have some of the rust scrapped off by then =)

Hawks Nest Disc Golf Opens Today!
210 West Main Street in Ayer.
Get on out there and show these guys your support!
Tuesday, March 4, 2014
Wednesday Weekly League Returns March 12th!
The Wednesday Weekly returns on March 12th. Come get your
2014 bag tag and be ready to tee off by 4:15PM. This was once again the most popular
singles league in Massachusetts last year (nearly 1,500 golfers came out) and I
am aiming to make it bigger and better this year so come join the fun.
We use league as our primary fundraiser to help pay our yearly insurance bill. We make it fun for all, so don't worry that you have to be an all-star to have a good time. We group players into four groups based on skill/gender, so you'll always be competing with someone about as good as you.
Basics
• Four player pools (A pool for players who average 58 and under, B pool for players who average between 59-68, C pool for players who average 69+ and a women’s pool).
• A weekly cash payout, a cash CTP for each pool, an ace pot and a season long points event. Lots of raffle prizes at end of the year including some big ticket items.
• Buying a tag saves you $2/week. Visiting non-taggers can still play and get in on the cash payout but can't compete for a tag.
• You must be a tag holder to collect the ace pot
• Wednesdays, starting March 12th
• Be ready to go at 4:15pm. Time will move up to 5:30pm according to sunset.
• Initial cost: $20 for 2014 tag
• We will do a skills challenge at the end of the night as soon as daylight allows
• CASUAL PLAY IS LIMITED TO “THE GENERAL” ON LEAGUE NIGHTS.
Weekly cost
• Tagholder: $5 -
$2 payout, $1 course funds, $.50 CTP, $.50 ace pot, $1 season points event & payout.
• Non-Tagholder: $7 -
$2 payout, $3 course funds, $.50 CTP, $.50 ace pot, $1 season points event & payout
Details
• No handicaps.
• One round of singles
• If you leave before tags are redistributed, get someone to grab it for you or risk us losing it.
• Tags are in play for casual rounds and tournaments. Higher tag can challenge a lower tag and under most circumstances, lower tag must accept.
• Ace pot rolls over each week. If there are no aces for 2014, half goes to the course maintenance/insurance fund and half goes to the 2015 WW ace pot.
• Two CTPs, one for A pool and one for B/C/W pools.
• There will be an improved year-end Bag Tag Bonanza to end the season.

Team Devens vs.Team Devens 2 THIS Saturday!!
We knew it would happen eventually and now the day is almost here. This Saturday our two home teams face off against each other at Amesbury Pines DGC. This will be a pool play event and Team Devens is also going up against a solid Newton Hill team, TD2 will also face the Borderland Bombers on their quest for greatness!
One thing is for sure, this will be a fun day with lots of good friends. I'm sure a victory by either of us will feel a little bittersweet. Tee off is around 9 so bring your food to the hall and get checked in to your capt. when you arrive.

Thank You for a Fantastic Year @ Devens DGC!
Wow, what a year it has been for Devens DGC! There were so many highlights in 2013 but none compare to the installation of our new 18 hole course. Together we built something special and as a small thank you to those who helped build the course we made a tag that we hope you will proudly display on your disc golf bag.
I should have these tags in hand shortly and I will start distributing right away on an "as I see you" basis.
Thank you again and I look forward to an excellent 2014!
Donnie Phillips Nails First Ace on "The General"!
Well, it didn't take long for someone to ace on the new course. Donnie Phillips hit hole 2 last weekend for the first ace!

Lost and Found Moving to Devens Pizza
The Devens lost and found is being held at Devens Pizza on Main Street in Ayer. This is the building behind "The Hill" hole 12 & "The General" hole 11. Next to where Killer B Disc Golf was. To get there, leave the course via Antietam Street. Make a right at the Parker School and a right on Main Street. Store is on the right. Tell Billy you have a disc in the lost and found and thank him for holding them by patronizing his store. You can also donate to the course to say thanks.
It is always a good idea to put as much info as possible on your disc. Full name, Phone # and email address.

Finishing Touches on The General
Please note that this weekends work days will be condensed into Sunday only.
Collectively, we have absolutely killed it during our last three work weekends. It really has been amazing to see so many people working together to build something special. Since the baskets are in and the course is getting a lot of play we would like to take care of some of the safety concerns before the ground is really frozen!
On Sunday, we would like to complete the following:
1 - Create a level walking path along hole 2s fairway
2 - Create a level walking path along hole 3s fairway
3 - Build solid steps mid fairway on hole 5
4 - Build solid steps mid fairway on hole 8
5 - Build solid steps down from 11s tee
5 - Build solid steps down from 11s tee
6 - Create a better path from hole 8s basket to hole 9s tee
Does anyone have a bladed weed whacker? We need to weed whack a path up the following fairways 6/9/13/14
Lots of pole sawing to do all over the course.
Some small cutting on certain holes -
Hole 9 we need to take out a small tree near the basket
We are going to cut all of the small stuff around hole 12s baskets within 30 feet
Brush dragging - EVERYWHERE (we should be doing this as we play our casual rounds as well)
Opening Event Scores on The General
On Sunday December 1st we ran a very loose tournament in which you played as many rounds as you wished and at your own leisure. We asked that you submit your scores on Facebook and while it turned out to be a pretty crappy day weather-wise we still got 17 people who submitted scores and at least another dozen or so people out there playing who didn't submit their scores..
Travis currently holds the official course record at a 62!
Travis Milem 62
Ned Eisenberg 64
Frank Strauss 65
John Buonsanto 65
Bradley Arnall 65
Bob Kulchuk 66 (dropped a 73 round)
Pete Nevius 66
Luke Adolph (dropped a 69 round)
Ken Gary 68
Bill Bertera 68
Taylor Maslowski 68
John Rodenhizer 68 (dropped a 75)
Phil Vilmorin 69
John Mucchiarone 69
Ken Marshall 70
Chris Mergemekes 73
Chuck (Tammaro?) 77
Ashley Tombey 79
We can run an official league round at some point over the winter because these scores will drop with drier weather!

The General is Ready!
Over the past two months a steady group of 20-30 dedicated golfers have been viciously chomping through the previously untouched woods adjacent to our original course "The Hill". Over the last two weeks Ken Gary and Josh St. Denis (along with a few helpers) have been quietly digging holes, installing sleeves, and as of yesterday 18 shiny new Discatchers are installed!
The result of everyone's hard work is a fantastic 18 hole disc golf course with decent natural tee pads. Devens DGC is proud to be the only disc golf course on the mainland of Massachusetts to have two separate courses on the same land.
Devens has made a name for itself for having probably the largest and most dedicated player base in our area. I'm proud to call Devens my home course and feel privileged to play with you guys and gals!
Some upcoming events on "The General":
Josh is running an informal doubles match on Thanksgiving morning @ 8am
On Sunday December 1st we will be running an informal singles event, who can set the initial course record? There is no entry fee and you can play as many rounds as you want during the day. Form your own group of 3/4 and start on hole 1. Have someone post your groups names/scores on Facebook after each round ends and I'll tally at the end of the day.
We will have another work weekend on December 7th and 8th in which will we do lots of pruning, some stairs, dragging of brush piles and other touch up work. Please come out if you can! Tee pads construction and installation will begin in the spring.
Come out and enjoy the new course!

Big Work Weekend!
Devens Work Weekend - Nov. 16/17th - The General!
Ok Devens, another work weekend is before us. If we get done what we plan to do, we could see baskets in the ground real real soon. So clear your calendars and get rid of those well-worn excuses and come on out. Here is the plan:
Saturday – finish cutting in fairways on last 3½ fairways. The usual chainsaw people will be there (right?). Everyone else, work gloves and help clear debris off the fairways. We will meet at 9am to start. If you come later and want to meet us, early on you can follow the road below the current course hole 9. Later morning onward take the road left past current hole 6 and look to the left or downhill from hole 7 basket/8 tee.
We will also be clearing smaller brush areas on already cut holes after we finish clearing the new holes.
Sunday – Vic is arranging to bring in a wood chipper to process the woodpiles. Meet at 9 am to start. We need people to bring wheelbarrows, shovels and rakes to move woodchips to the pin areas. If you have these supplies, but need a way to get them to the course, please post and I hope those with pickup trucks can swing by. If we get done with piles on the new course, we may be able to chip on the current course to add woodchips below a number of worn basket areas (1,18, 10 would be great). This could really help out the current course so try to get out to help.
We will also be setting the new basket sleeves in the ground for the existing holes.
We also need some clearing of the high tree ceiling on hole 7. If anyone can climb and cut branches, we need you now. This work requires about 10 limbs that are too high for a pole saw to come down. Someone experienced is needed.
The weather is looking like it is going to cooperate. Look forward to seeing a lot of people this weekend. It may be the last large-scale work effort before this course is playable.
