    Review by Cruz Duck in course Coyotes Den DGC

    4.00 star(s) Very Fun, Underrated Course Fun elevation shots - Up, down, across the side of a hill. Often the longer tee pad will have more elevation. Even if you have a pretty wimpy arm, I highly encourage you to try the longer tee pads. Multiple Tee pads, Multiple Basket Locations - I don't know how...

    New Universal Flight Rating System & Graphic Flight Chart

    Thanks for doing this, I can see that a lot of work has been put into this. I would like to see a relative power requirement for each disc. How much power is required to get the particular disc to fly on its designed path? Maybe I missed it, but I don't see that in your charts. I want to be...

    DG Statistics?

    I used to keep some type of record of every shot. For example, I might write: 1 – x – 45 – 15 This would mean hole 1, excellent drive, missed 45 foot putt, made 15 foot putt. Or 13 – p – vg – vg – 25 This would mean hole 13, poor drive, two very good approach shots and made a 25 foot...

    DG Statistics?

    Hmm, I guess that it all depends on what you want from the statistics: 1) To compare your current round against yourself or against your competition. Did I do as well as I think I could? Or how did I do against what I think the competition will be doing? Mark suggested several statistics of...

    DG Statistics?

    Any interest in talking about DG statistics? I was reading about some statistics used by ball golf and read that one of the strongest indicators of overall performance is “Greens in Regulation”. This means if you get the ball on the green with at least 2 fewer strokes than par. So I was...

    FH Release Height?

    I went out to the course for another early round and experimented with different release heights. All with the elbow extended. I probably threw 60-70 forehand drives. I found that with a shoulder-high release, I could only throw big, high anhyzers. Some discs just kept going anhyzer...

    FH Release Height?

    Thanks for the responses. I played an early round this morning. I experimented with releasing at waist level. I tried both elbow close to the body and extended. I got there early enough that I could throw 4 or 5 drives off of every tee. I found that my longest throws were with the elbow...

    FH Release Height?

    I was talking to a friend who throws forehand drives pretty well. He commented that he can throw farther with a higher release point. For his longest throws, he actually releases at shoulder height or even higher. I found this especially interesting because I do the opposite. I lean down and...

    effing twilight zone...really

    One time I was practicing on a football field surrounded by a track. I threw a bunch of discs and yanked one to the right off the football field, but it did not make it to the track. I probably looked for 15 minutes for that disc. I could not find it anywhere. Finally, I found it half buried...

    Interview with Nikko Locastro podcast

    The PDGA official that I was talking to, was assigned to follow one of the “troublemakers” around the course. He stayed with the group the entire round. When they played past me, there was no bad behavior. :-) My only problem was with the top pro who chewed out a spectator. The spectator...

    Interview with Nikko Locastro podcast

    I volunteered for the Worlds and saw just about all of the competitors. When Nikko came past, he was really struggling with his game. But his demeanor was great. He made some quiet comments about how poorly he was playing, but he didn't blame anyone or anything else. He took complete...
