[Question] "Unconventional" uses for discs

[tu-f-o]

Do you do this?

I just got an opto trident, and this thing is a beast for fh rollers. I think it's the wide diameter, thick rim, and gummy/stiff plastic.
I used to use an avenger ss for forehands and fh rollers, but this might take over.

I also use my fuse and zone for farther putts sometimes, seems ok as long as you don't blow by the basket too far.

And I used to use my sidewinder for fairway duties but I might go back to teebirds and eagles.

I'm thinking there are a lot of weird discs used for thumbers, and I still need to test this, but my thumbers are terrible.

I guess this isn't the right thread for me. I can open beer bottles with champ or star plastic. *shrug*

I use one of my VPs as a water dish for my dog when I bring him with me.

I use a D1 for my thumbers :thmbup:

Dog water dish. Just make sure you really have to pee first.

Polecat: Water dish on the course
Extra discs: Dust collectors
New discs with decent flashing: Back scratcher

Ohhh...uses on the course

TeeBirds: control thumbers and FH rollers
Zones and Wasps: Short FH rollers

I use Firebirds for upshots inside 200ft if I'm playing an open course. Spike hyzers are more consistent for me than throwing a putter approach.

I just played the toboggan course at Kensington yesterday and I LOVE my Epic on that course for huge sky rollers thumbers!! One of the funnest discs to throw when you've head room for bombs!! And then I have my Buzzbee, if you know about them, then you know what "utility" that is used for!

 

[Peter_LG]

i use a flipped over non-throwing disc to put an open drink on whenever i'm throwing. Less tipping over, less waste!

 

[teemkey]

Discs are excellent mosquito smashers. For this use, large diameter discs are more forgiving.

 

[BogeyNoMore]

As far as I'm concerned, any DG related use of a disc is conventional.

I was in the middle of a round with my friend Derek at Whittier Narrows in sweltering South El Monte a few summers ago when out of nowhere this tiny little Jack Russell mixed puppy came up to us, desperately thirsty and abandonded. He drank some water out of my overturned Nuke. Of course we named him Nuke. He's doing great now. If I could figure out how to attach a pic from my iPad to a DGCR post, I'd show him now.:doh:

Awesome story! :thmbup:

I don't bring any of my dogs to the course, but several folks that I play with do. I always offer water to the dogs, saves the owner from using all of his.

I picked up a LE ghost stamped Big Bee 10yr glo Buzzz, one of those 1/1000 editions. Well, I was volunteering at Disc Girls Gone Wild and there was so much food... and so few plates.

9/10 - has held chicken wings and macaroni salad.

I have thrown my Roc3 on a "boomerang" line. I had to get over some trees in front of me and the basket was tucked in under them with no direct route. Basically it is this type of throw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmORZNNhurg

If I am in tree jail, I pull out my Kastaplast Rask and thumb it towards the smaller branches. Usually, it will punch right through into the fairway. I have found no other disc that I can do this with.

I thought this was a different thread......but....what I was gonna say

--I sometimes Use my M3 as a plate. not for like spaghetti or anything. But to set stuff on.
