I play Disc Golf, and enjoy it a great deal. I also enjoy photography, and have a camera with me most of the time. Sunday just gone saw the 2015 Chick Flick (a tournament focussing on female players) here in Perth, held at the Rob Hancock Memorial course, and I decided to concentrate on recording the event, rather than playing. Although the name and entry classifications are rather jokey ("Chicks", "Not Chicks", and "Not Chicks Dressed as Chicks"), actual play is pretty darn intense, and scoring divisions were split along more traditional lines, with Women's Open and Advanced, and Men's Open, Advanced, and Rec divisions. Play was two rounds of 12, followed by a final 6 for the top-card Women's Open players. We had 11 women playing - which was a great turnout, given the quite small size of the Perth disc golfing community. As you can see from the photos, conditions were ... challenging, to say the least, with gusts over 50km/h and pounding rain...
Interesting. I don’t think I’d heard of Shonen Knife before. Quite a good cover.
ReplyDeleteCorrection: I think I might have been vaguely aware (ala the usual cultural osmosis) but not actually heard anything of theirs.
The Joan Jett cover of Science Fiction/Double Feature on the same album is awesome!
ReplyDeleteOk I’ll have to check this out
