Shuffleboard

 Yuma, Arizona        High 77 Low 55

It finally warmed up here in Yuma. We have finally got nice weather with very little wind.

I mentioned last post that there was a shuffleboard tournament that I was going to be in. My first game, I was doing alright the first half, until we changed sides. I found a spot that I could shot from and get points. Unfortunately, my opponent watched where I was shooting and beat me in the second half. This put me into the constellation round. I was playing against a little old grey haired lady. We were tied for almost the whole game until the last frame. She got a disc into score and I didn't, so she beat me by 7 points. I guess I didn't watch out for the little grey haired lady well enough. 

The rest of the tournament I either kept score or refereed for the players remaining in the tournament. It was still fun and maybe I'll do better next time.








We had a lot of players from other parks and had 128 entries this year which was up from 96 last year.

Thanks for visiting.

  1. I was wondering how that turned out. What are the bowling pins for? I don't remember seeing them previously. That's a fun game!!

  2. The pins make the game more challenging. If you knock one over, it is a 10 point penalty. If possible, you push your disc right against it without moving the pin, you are in the 10 point area. It makes it harder for the other person to get you out of scoring.
