    It's just about that time of the year again. Disc golf should be in full swing all over the country. Last time I did this it turned out well with a lot of quality beer and discs trading hands. So here we go.

    The Rules:

    Must send a minimum of 144oz of beer.
    1/2 of the beer you send MUST be in canned form (for ease of drunkness on the course!)
    The other half is completely up to you.
    No requirement to hit wants, but of course that is encouraged.
    MINIMUM 3 Discs. These can be new or LIGHTLY used. Lightly being only a few times on the course. No big dings or nicks in the plastic. Try to send quality plastic (innova champion, discraft Elite Z type) Send a variety of discs if you can.

    When we get enough people I will figure out a shipping window.
    In the hints thread, you are encouraged to post types of discs you are looking for.

    Reply to this thread if you are interested. I will shoot out a mass BM later to those who are involved :slight_smile:

    I have a bunch of Surly branded discs, do people have access to other beer discs for this trade?

    Bell's has them.

    I would be interested in participating... But that would tip the scales to be pretty IL-heavy....

    Just checked several brewery web-stores (Bells, Victory, Founders, Odell, Surly) and nobody has discs listed for sale.

    To echo Jeff, I'd be down to participate, so long as it doesn't make it all Illinois-centric and whatnot...

    Well at the current moment we have

    Oreo
    Drewba
    Baconsausage
    Kzoobrew

    Another 3 more IL people are interested bringing the total to 5 from IL, 1 from Michigan, and 1 from Vermont. If we can get another 5 people from o ther states, I would be ok with it.

    For those IL people on the waiting list, you're gonna work us in on a 'first come, first served' basis, yeah?

    I'm totally in for this btw.

    Anyway-- we need some more disc golfers to join up-- so long as you're not IL residents!

    BIF noob and dont mind shipping first. I have almost 30 trades completed and believe I have branded discs from North Country Brewing Co (Slippery Rock, PA) and Church Brew Works (Pittsburgh PA) to send....gotta check the basket of discs.

    Pulled a muscle in my back on the 7th hole of the first round, finished dead last in Intermediates. The bright spot was the dinner between day 1 and day 2 was sponsored by Ithaca Brewing and I got hammered on Cascazilla, Nut Brown, and Apricot Wheat.

    Ok. Since we have a few people who want in, but have no BIF experience, I think i should make the new people ship a week prior to the rest to ensure boxes arrive safely. Any objections to this?
