I believe "minting" it as an NFT tokenizes a receipt of ownership in the blockchain. It possesses zero utility.
Huh?
Wut?
I really have no clue and no ambition to learn.
And I'm totally OK with that!

Yes, it was an over generalization.
I know that personalities of disc golfers range from shy introverts to outgoing "look at me" types. But generally speaking I feel the majority of disc golfers are quiet types who do not feel comfortable in front of the camera and do not enjoy creating media content about themselves.
Of my 20-25 disc golfing friends I would say the majority are wallflowers.

I'm with you on this. I always thought myself as technologically savvy, ever since I helped my parents set up our first computer as just a kid.
But this... I think I'll just lay back and wait for my soon to be 7-year-old to explain it to me.
There are also kids I want off my lawn.

Same, and because of this thread I attempted to read up on NFT for dummies and I've read a bunch on them now and I still don't understand why they are important. I don't understand the value in them.

As I understand it, blockchain is a secure technology used to create an online encrypted registry that permanently validates/authenticates current ownership of digital assets. It started with cryptocurrency. This same technology can be used to validate/authenticate ownership and purchase value of other creative assets like graphics, photos, music, memorabilia and artwork, especially those created digitally that don't have intrinsic value like money, i.e., Non-Fungible (NF), until someone purchases it through a broker qualified to digitally lock-in their ownership and purchase price (needed for tax purposes to determine capital gains/losses once sold).Same, and because of this thread I attempted to read up on NFT for dummies and I've read a bunch on them now and I still don't understand why they are important.

Watched the Johnny Discgolf interview with Madison Walker. It seems (due to her finger injury) she needs discs that are on the lighter side and she's having trouble finding them. As much as I like Madison I can't part with my MVP/Axiom discs. I hope this means her signature discs might be available in lighter weights. There's been times I would buy a signature disc but seldom find them in a weight suitable for my aging noodle arm.

Send me PMs for pics.@Monocacy might be interested in such an item.

Natalie Ryan has signed with Neptune Discs and will be touring for a full season in 2022.
What will she throw? PDGA has no approved discs.
That's what I'm wondering. Maybe they are in the process of getting their lineup approved? I haven't heard of this company before. Their first Instagram post is 14 weeks old so maybe they're brand new.
It could also be a mixed bag situation while they work on expanding their disc line, where she will be expected to throw some Neptune Discs as they get approved and added to their lineup, and she can use other disc brands in the meantime.
