Those two stand out as the best to do it for me.

Mallard Crossing south of Monroe. I’ve hunted with them numerous times. They would be my choice.
Nope. Just don’t understand why a troubled OC at a storied program like WM is such a big part of the HC hire.
Why the concern with players leaving if he leaves? Not the best record off the field for this guy.
One of the best replies I’ve seen on this site.

I love the traditional part of the game but I do not understand why balls and strikes aren’t called by a computer at this point. The technology is there.
I don’t agree with this on this play. The batter clearly vacated the box and gave himself up. I don’t understand how you can ignore such an important part of the play.

I know for a fact that the two schools that used it the most (one of which you called out) have not done so for almost 20 years.


If you are referring to OCS, they may not have an 8s program but they certainly encourage holding back. You mention the 8th grade class below. The two best players have been 15 for a good bit of the school year.
It's laughable when these kids play down in age at the youth level.

i have stated for atleast 2 years travel ball...should be no grade hold backs until ith grade or 14u


I agree with this. The organizations allow those that have held back to play down but not the ones that don’t hold back. The age gaps can get too large as the kids are maturing.
Saw a huge push of birds heading south Sunday.

Not sure where MWP was hunting but we had good hunts on Highway 15 Saturday morning.
I’d like to play LT as well. Problem is, I can’t beat out Will Campbell.
I’ve seen lots of dumb posts on TD. This may be the dumbest.

Darrell’s special with jalapeño Mayo is hard to beat. Great to have on the boat for lunch when smacking trout.
