Slang terms for Aces?

[Kent18]

Me and another noob were playing the other day and one of our discs off of the teepad hit a tree and came to rest on top of the basket. We both knew it didn't count but wondered if the Disc golfing community had named an occurance like that yet?

We already know the following taught to us by a local pro:
1) Ace
2) Skip-Ace (disc skips right before entering basket)
3) Field-Ace (disc enters basket from the fairway plus 200ft)
4) Black-Ace (disc aces hole adjacent to one playing by accident)


are there other kinds?

It's called a DROT:

Disc
Resting
On
Top

There's a whole thread around here for disc golf terminology and it might even be stickied. Either way, do a search for it and you'll find all kinds of good info.

I've heard it called a brown ace when there are multiple baskets in place on a hole and you ace the one you weren't shooting for.

What about an Ace Ventura? Where you hit a squirrel out of a tree and it lands in or on top the basket?

i've seen a disc bounce off a tree and go in for an ace, so tree ace i guess?

Provided you successfully make the drop in putt, I'd call that a birdie.

Everyone who saw the shot owes whomever made it $1 (sometimes more depending upon local custom). Although in some local customs DROT's are good.

How about "Hole in one"?? Does that count?

Seems like the most obvious choice.
