> The Jacksonville Triangle?

>    In what might appear to just be an simple tourism marketing ploy off
>    of the Bermuda Triangle myth, the Jacksonville Triangle took its'
>    toll last night.  Many players suffered with unusual directional
>    control issues throughout the night.  In a dramatic return to
>    competition, Jason > "> Hitman> ">  McCallister was out at Fore Palms
>    Disc Golf course last night.  Discovered sauntering up to the
>    practice field, his only comment was > "> How many victims will I
>    have, to toy with, tonight?> ">   Still missing was Nick > "> Buffalo
>    Bill> ">  Pappas and his side kick Beverly.  They were reportedly
>    sighted with Elvis in the Daytona area, still oiling their guns.

>    The Triangle effect did not affect the women, as they obviously came
>    to play last night. Carla > "> Junior Clank> ">  Keating, with her
>    steady drives and fluttering putts, avoiding anything worse than a 6
>    all night, shot a career low 94.  Becky > "> Comeback> ">  Klein, not
>    to be outdone, used her magical putting flip to shot a new career low
>    of 91.  Meanwhile, the men couldn> '> t keep up the same level of
>    play.  Although Puma Pawson was injured in Saturday> '> s tournament,
>    Awesome Pawson courageously played a heroic game and shot a 76.  Eric
>    > "> The Wizard> ">  Shannon using Roller Boy Skelton> '> s
>    technique, shot a near career best 81.  The Wizard would have had a
>    career night had he not decided to catapult his second shot on the
>    10th hole into the middle of the lake and thereby becoming a > ">
>    real> ">  disc golfer.  Darrell > "> Woody> ">  Gilman assailed many
>    trees along the course but still finished with a career tying best
>    69.  Pinkie the Beast Brooks made some dramatic throws including a
>    throw from the 10th tee across the entire length of the lake, at it>
>    '> s widest point, just to prove he could do it.  Once Pinkie gets
>    his Beast under control and provides some semblance of direction, the
>    Beast will rise to dominance.  Beast finished with a 73.  Bushman
>    Pike was distracted throughout the night and gravely concerned about
>    the number of nicks and dents in the trees he saw on the course
>    (probably due to the numerous assaults from the other players).
>    Bushman spent most of his time throwing his discs into the general
>    area of the attacks to do some investigating and provide treatment
>    that only a true bushman can.  Bushie, as his friends call him,
>    finished with a 82.  Hitman McCallister patiently stalking his target
>    score, calmly, precisely played the course to shoot 70.  The stalking
>    Hitman flustered Birdie Taylor, who was off his game from the start
>    when Sunshine Reeves and Pistol Pete Schechterle didn> '> t show up.
>    Birdie was heaving his discs a long way however directional control
>    was a bit of an issue.  On the 18th tee, Birdie impressively
>    propelled his driver all the way to the soccer fields where it was
>    soundly rejected and rapidly thrown back towards the tee box.  Even
>    with a penalty stroke for being out of bounds, Birdie still managed
>    to complete the course with a score of 63.
>
>    Currently Jason "Hitman" McCallister has the early lead on the D-GIMP
>    award.  Will anyone challenge his handicapped score of 53?  Several
>    players need only 1 or 2 more games to fully establish their
>    handicaps to make a run for the award.  Stay tuned as the next
>    exciting match will be on Thursday.
