Team Challenge Held at Orrington DGC

The Team Challenge Doubles league, now in its second month, hit the crunchy-snow-covered DR Disc Golf Course on Sunday in Orrington, December 13, 2009. Forty-eight golfers made up the twenty-four doubles teams to take part in the December edition of this once-a-month event.

Justin Gott, Beatz, and Nick

Weather early in the day was sunny and chilly in the mid-30s, but no wind. By afternoon, the wind picked up a bit as clouds moved in. The second round finished just as darkness was taking over. A rain/sleet storm started as teams were leaving, but all were able to get home safely, some a bit later than others.

Team results are below.
