Hey there, you said you may be willing to trade your flat firebird. I went through some of my discs that I havent thrown in a while that I'd be willing to trade and I came up with these:
star wraith
Z stalker
champion eagle x
champion xcaliber
xout tl
esp pulse w/ ls discs custom dye
champion firebird
omega ss (3 of them)
esp buzzz w/ tourney stamp
also have some rocs
I would be willing to trade a couple of these for that firebird depending on which ones... All the discs are used but in good condition. Hope you find one you like man. Thanks, Adam
You said you are working on making a new course in SW MI. Thats awesome. Where at? Im from that area. If your not to far away maybe I can be some help. Good luck man. Peace.
The Prototypes are on the way!!! Thanks so much I love the art work you'ev done for the Graboide, I was told that the word need to be slimmed down a bit, but I can do that on this end. I am having the name done solid and the bigger the area the more likely the stamp wont stick down right.
You should have your disc's in just a few days, let me know what you think.

Happy discing
I have not been on this site much, too busy w/ work, enovating a house and moving. I hope the presentation in Ionia went well. I used to work Meridian and when driving home from Ionia I would pass Bertha Brock and dream of installing a course there.
I have been in contact with Kent County Parks for 25+ years. Joe Gill, Bob Lanning (RIP) and I made the presentation to the County Commision to get baskets installed at Brewer in 1983 or4. I stayed in regular contact with the head of the Parks Dept. about a location for a course on the north or east side of town. When he offered the land in Fallasburg I was elated. The GRDGC put in a ton of work - and bought the baskets.
I hope thing go well with the project in Ionia.
