    LA Hollywood area?

    LA's a big place man...depends on where you are gonna be and how far you're willing to go to play. La Mirada is awesome, but it is pretty far south. Oak Grove is a good one to play, for the historical aspect if nothing else. There is usually a few groups hanging out wiling to show you around...

    [Recommend] More stable DD Emac truth?

    Verdict should be a good choice, but also check out an Emac Truth in the Prime plastic. They start off Very beefy.

    Lake Lewisville Park's Old Man course IS the most beautiful course in Merica!

    meh...don't get me wrong, The Old Man is a great historic course in DFW and a must play when you are in the area, but I would never describe it as the "most beautiful" Heck, just the walk between holes 13 and 14 at Lake Cachuma, CA blows Lake Lewisville out of the water. Honestly, the first...

    ISO: Ideas on retrieving floating discs

    If it's in the middle of a lake, stop throwing floating plastic. It's an easier loss. Otherwise, tie an empty water bottle to the end of a golden retriever. Boom.. Floating Retriever.

    [Question] Any new floaters?

    Dragons are still a great choice for the kids if you're having to play around water. Fairly easy to get, lightweight, and what kid wouldn't want to throw a Dragon! I'm gonna second looking into Lighting discs for floating putters. Or do what I did and move to Southern California and never have...

    Review by alpha_dave in course Sylmar DGC

    3.50 star(s) Sylmar Tee Boxes= Concrete Tee pads in good condition. Several holes have a long and a short Tee Baskets= One of the more unique design features I have seen. The baskets are in a Red, White and Blue pattern (which also matches the tee sign frame). This makes navigation a bit easier since you...

    The VJ DQ - What's a Caddy?

    I'm pretty sure that's Val's blue Grip bag and the person carrying the bag has a cozy in their hand.

    The VJ DQ - What's a Caddy?

    Ha! Truly LOL. Yah, I suppose that would be one way to handle it.... Didn't I see in the other thread that it is illegal to have alcohol in that park? I guess they could tell the Judge how dumb that law is while paying their fine, but I don't think that would do them any good...but I ain't a...

    The VJ DQ - What's a Caddy?

    ugh...dumb dumb dumb. Its pretty clear that everyone was informed of the rules against alcohol during the competition, but then to break that rule AND be caught on camera doing it? UGH. Better that Val was DQ'ed when she was rather than some keyboard internet warrior getting a screenshot of her...

    If there was a "30 for 30" style series on Disc Golf...

    I actually think he would win Worlds under that sort of pressure. But that's just my opinion, man.

    If there was a "30 for 30" style series on Disc Golf...

    Maybe not quite in the "30 for 30" mold, but I think someone should follow Bradley Williams around with a camera crew for the next two years. He's either gonna win a World Championship during that time, or have an epic meltdown...either way it would make for a compelling watch.

    Juliana Korver, she went from the most dominant female player in her generation to a freestyle enthusiast.
