Sounds like a great time was had by all.  It's a shame I'm 15-hundred miles away.  Ah, well....

Great pix, too.

Kudos to larrysmom for the pictures!

What you see in the pictures would probably be cut in half without C_A's tireless efforts almost from the time he stepped off the airplane.  I think he kinda stepped into the buzzsaw as the saying goes...  He was running errands both on-road and off-road, meal planning, shopping, cooking and in his spare time running various saws, pipe dies and other assorted tools and equipment...  I'm not sure it would have happened without his help...   But a hardy thanks to C_A, a dedicated slinger and supporter of our sport!!!   ...who was also the bearer of the Union Jack and English Flag (aka The Cross of St. George)

And to neogeo a hardy thaks for all your help as well..  just think if you had come earlier... Smiley  

Larry and family made most of the actual games really come to life... I told C_A watching Larry's throw of that golfball made the whole weekend for me.

Okay here's the proposal...  Slinging Games 2008...  I will load up the kit onto a flatbed trailer and pull to anywhere in continental North America a few days early to help set it all up in 2008.  We just need someone to either have or to reserve some real estate to set up on...  and maybe we can get the Powell Golf Club to write a letter to your local golf couse recommending letting the slingers do a round of Sling Golf.  So if you couldn't come in 2007...  can you host in 2008?????

If anyone on any of the other continents is interested I will send drawings, specs etc, of what our NA kit now contains so you may get one set up for your continent... also a list of vendors who provided pennants, embroidery, screen printing, etc. to make it up.


That depends entirely on two things: finances and the mood my boss is in.  Currently the only time I get off work is when I'm in hospital.

Well it took a couple weeks to recover but if Larry or no one else commits to this we'll do it again here... either at our place or at the Powell Golf Club.  Probably happen earlier in the summer however.

Heck the next one's almost free (work and $) except for the T-shirts...   Smiley

I'll PM you who expressed an interest in a shirt for adresses, etc.   Already sent C_A his hat and a hat and shirt to Aussie.  If you're interested in one send me a PM we'll figure out how to get one out to you... colors are blue, yellow, natural and a lot of green ones.
