Hey Bro, Vegas was a blast, as always - and it is nice to play consistent =) I didn't realize that today was the monthly at LaMi, I'll be there today, but might not be for the monthly.

I use the towel method for DX plastic. The very basic plastic will heat up and kinda mold back to where it should have been. I took a couple chunks out of my KC Roc in the first week of using it and smoothed it out and flies great. Use a shammy an...

ACE!!!

I got my 2nd ace yesterday. It was a straight short shot on hole 6 at El Dorado Park in Long Beach, CA. Threw the dart right at it and it slid in the bottom part of the basket. No chains, no sound. Almost made it all the way through the basket. It was AWESOME!!!

Mental work over

The past few times I have gone to my local course I have gotten stuck behind a group that drives me crazy. I have tried to put them out of my head but every time i seem to just get messed up even seeing they are on the course. I suppose this is just something that i should learn to deal with. Oh well. Just needed to get it off my chest.
