IODyes -- Bruce Brakel

No, I'm not selling marital harmony. I'm selling off my inventory to balance the family budget book.

I came up about 100 players short of what I was hoping for. 100 player packs, 100 players worth of prizes, we're talking 2 grand here. Plus I was a little over-exuberant when I was ordering, so its worse than that. I cannot carry that inventory on the books for 6 months… Continue

[/Advertisement] I went out to the football field to throw 150 plastic back to Diana and Kira, as well as some mid 160 stuff. Diana throws about 210 feet with good throws going 240. Kira throws about 240 with good throws going about 270. 150 Surge: I think this is the best distance disc in the 150 class. Kira got her best throw with one of these, 273 feet… Continue
