All,

There was a small Golf Tourney in West London in January earlier this year,
which I played in.  It was my first and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  Yes I
played the majority of the course with an Ultrastar and yes I did do OK. (My
best round was better that Derek 'The Wind's' worst, not bad for a first
effort, I think)  Having said that Derek did a grand salesman's pitch and
flogged me two golf discs, neither of which have been thrown since.  

I say stop those Golf Tourneys clashing with the Ultimate ones (and my
training schedule) and maybe you'll get more Ultimate players interested.

Any Ultimate players thinking about having a go, I would definitely
recommend it.

Colin 
UTI.

	Dear Wayne and others,

	While we're riding on this DG publicity tidal wave (er.. 
	ripple)

	First golf tournament of the year is this week-end at 
	Colchester University and there are about 14 tournaments 
	running up to November. Taking part is easy- just turn 
	up. Dates and contact details are on the britdisc diary, 
	BDGA newsletter (for which you have to be a member), and 
	BDGA webpage- or alternatively contact me. There are 2 
	main types of events- tour and non-tour. Non-tour 
	events are smaller, format is more flexible so tend to 
	be more beneficial for novices. Begineers are 
	welcomed and catered for at tour events too, only 
	difference is that there are a few contenders/pretenders 
	getting serious about it all. 

	You don't even need to turn up with golf discs, they can 
	usually be bought (or sometimes borrowed) at tournaments- 
	or alternatively play with your ultrastar.
