Thanks Billy. I built the tndiscgolf site for the MTDGA club years ago and started adding all kinds of feature. After a month of upgrades, I was told that nobody cares about added functionality and that all they needed was a forum. After slapping on Google analytics to track site traffic via IP addresses, I found that there are a few visitors to the local sites each day but in general, it is the same 20 guys or so checking back several times a day. I hope that something great happens with your site and it becomes the central hub for local DG information. Good luck with it, and thanks for your efforts.

Like the new site. How about adding the Barfield and Sharp Springs Saturday monthlies to calendar. Thanks!

Thanks Craig - I certainly have no aspirations for this site. I mainly started it as just a learning exercise but then figured I would make it public just in case it would help promote the wonderful sport of disc golf. I already got one email from someone saying the site helped them learn about courses they didn't know existed - best I could have hoped for.
Keith - do you have the information for the monthlies you mentiond.

Hi guys, I wanted to let you know of some updates to the website. I removed the news/twitter page and replaced it with a way for local players to easily enter scores by filling out a simple form (Enter Your Score page). The results are on the "Course Scores" page in a spreadsheet form that allows you to sort and filter. Its a great way to share your scores and to see how others are playing. I would also like to eventually crowdsource the calendar - just haven't figured out the best way to do that yet. I am also looking at adding another page with an editable embedded spreadsheet that would allow players to update the WCDGA bag tag so we can keep track of who has what tag. If you like you can send me the tag number you hold now and I'll work on getting the first version out there. Go check it out and let me know what you think. I'll be anxious to see how we are all scoring at the various courses. sites.google.com/site/middletndiscgolf/homeBilly

Keith - do you have the information for the monthlies you mentiond. Billy, go check out the forum at www.tndiscgolf.com/Go to the MTDGA button and you will find the listings for both the Sharp Springs and Barfield monthlies. Barfield has also just started their Thursday doubles as well. Blessings! Keith

Thanks Kieth - I just updated the calendar with the Smyrna and Barfield events - when you look at the calendar it becomes clear that this town has a lot of great regular dg events.
