Feldberg

Feldberg climbs past Climo with a new record 1046 rating. Is 1050 possible?

David Feldberg finally reaches a goal he had been working for but had proven elusive - until now. His 1046 rating posted in this March 29th ratings update is now the highest rating ever posted, passing Ken Climo's 1044 first posted in September 2002. Climo has held the top personal rating since they started with a 1032 average in the 1998 Cincinnati Worlds. Feldberg came close last August tying Climo's 1044. But he wanted one extra point and finally got two.


In this same update, let's not overlook Nikko Locastro who also posted his highest rating ever at 1043 and now has our third highest rating all-time. Ken Climo also returned to 1040-land posting a 1040. It's likely the first time we've had three players with ratings in the 1040s at the same time. Our players with the top five personal ratings ever achieved are now: David Feldberg 1046, Ken Climo 1044, Nikko Locastro 1043, Jesper Lundmark 1041 and Darrell Nodland 1040. No other player has gotten to 1040 with Barry Schultz just missing, reaching 1039 three different times in 2003, 2004 and 2006.

As you might expect, several of Feldberg's rounds have made this "best rounds of all time" list several times. But he still hasn't joined the 1100 club with just seven members. Only Brian Skinner, Ken Climo, Brian Schweberger, Josh Anthon, Steven Rico, Matt Orum and Barry Schultz have ever posted rounds of 1100 rating or higher. But as far as ratings goals this year, Feldberg's focus is on his overall rating, not necessarily stellar rounds. David says, "It is a goal of mine that I set this year to reach a 1050 rating. I know it will be difficult, but I think it is possible. I am very happy with my new rating and I hope it can keep climbing." What are your ratings goals for 2011?

Star Vulcan

The Vulcan was designed for less powerful players that want to throw the shots of their dreams. Similar in flight to our Katana with less low speed fade. The Vulcan will be available in lower weights for longer shots. With weights as low as 158 grams, there is a Vulcan for everyone. One of our lightest and longest Distance Drivers available in Star plastic. Makes a great long range roller as we
