All things change including ANW. We had to replace one informal rule with a new formal rule and we had to implement another new rule.
Below are the changes and modifications with explanation. Note that the full set of rules can be viewed here:
Rule #8 (ANW 2016) – Cow and Leo made a deal. In exchange for the revocation of the informal ‘Leo does a shot whenever someone drives by’ rule a new rule was put in place. The rule is as follows:
“Leo must defend Cow against any statements that imply Cow does not consume enough at ANW. This defense must come within 10 seconds of the initial charge/insult being said. If said defense is not made in 10 seconds or deemed not enthusiastic enough by Cow then Leo will be penalized.”
Rule #9 (ANW 2016) – In response to an extraordinarily egregious violation of protocol, etiquette, decorum and plain good sense by Leo (breaking a 1/5th of Dickel by throwing it into the bag) the following was implemented by the rules committee:
“Due to the events of the morning of 11/5/2016 Leo shall consume one shot of George Dickel whiskey at the 7th hole of each round of Disc Golf. This rule shall be in place for all time.”
Here we see Vin (left) and Peeve (right) playing Mexican (see here for explanation).
Vin is trying to assess if Peeve **really** has what he says he threw. The process goes something like this:
- Peeve: Rolls dice. Lifts cup. <<giggle>> “BOX CARS”
- Vin: “What are you trying to beat?”
- Peeve: “A Bill Rose”
- Vin: “Really? That’s a little high. Hmmm. No way you have boxcars.”
- Peeve: “That’s what I’ve got”
- Vin: Lifts cup to review dice. Passes dice and cup back to Peeve. Vin consumes penalty beer.
- Repeat…
—WELCOME TO THE HURT LOCKER!—
Always a good dwiver on the course. Putting can be an issue for Vin. Ask him about his ‘meat curtains’ when you see him.
A shot of the boys less your friendly editor who is taking the shot
ANW 2016 is over. A great time had by all.
Disc Golf Tournament
Cow won the trophy in a thrilling sudden death playoff with Peeve. See the round by round scores here.
Washer Tournament
In the Washer ‘Championship of the World’ tourney, it was looking pretty grim for the 3FG’s. Vin was throwing like a 100 year old Grandma with back problems, nothing was falling for Gapp or Cow.
The LB’s were celebrating, prancing around like a bunch of…well, see it here.
Suddenly, like a lightning strike from a clear blue sky, The 3FG’s roared back and won the ‘Washer’s Championship of the World’ trophy in a stunning comeback!
It’s never over till it’s OVER!!
The look on Dag’s face says it all about the Washer tourney

The group received this gem of a text from Peeve earlier today:
—-
was just perusing the ANW website again to check out past scores…
I for some reason always have a blow up round and (using an ANW saying listed on the website) I’m Out.
F’n sucks I can’t hold it together.
I’m bringing my A game this year.
I think another reason Cow wins is lack of consumption…
Obviously he doesn’t get doubles and that fair since he earns those, but on course beer consumption is LOW…
Im going to try and keep track of that this year.

I think that this rant was triggered by ‘Cow’ letting everyone know that there should be a rule change just to make the tourney interesting for him. To Cow’s credit he has won for the last 5 years.Peeve has come close in the last 2 years.
Proposals include:
- Remove a stroke from your score by doing a shot of the ‘Chinese shit’ (I think it’s ‘Baijiu’, a absolutely horrific liquor)
- Get an ace on a hole, the score for that hole is zero
- A player is allowed to replay one hole per round (maybe just the tourney)
#1 is looking like a winner.
Love to see the banter getting turned up.
Keep calm and consume on…
